Mice were generated carrying a conditional deletion of the TβRII in cells that originate from the inner layer of the optic cup. The animals showed a significant decrease of phosphorylated Smad3 in both the central and peripheral retina, which indicates the diminished activity of TGF-β signaling. TβRII deficiency significantly increased the apoptotic death of retinal neurons during embryonic and postnatal development without affecting their proliferation. In contrast, treatment with TGF-β2 inhibited cell death of retinal ganglion cells in dissociated retinal cell cultures, an effect that was blocked by inhibiting the phosphorylation of Smad3. The increase in apoptosis during development resulted in a significant reduction in the number of neurons in adult TβRII-deficient mice. The effect was most pronounced in the inner retina neurons and resulted in functional deficits as determined by electroretinography. In contrast, a conditional deletion of TGF-β-inhibiting Smad7 in retinal neurons significantly enhanced Smad3 phosphorylation and significantly decreased apoptosis of retinal neurons in embryos and pups. Moreover, the number of retinal ganglion cells was significantly higher in Smad7-deficient mice compared with control littermates. TβRII-deficient pups showed a lower level of nerve growth factor (NGF) in its mRNA; however, higher levels were observed in Smad7-deficient pups, which strongly suggests that the protective effects of TGF-β signaling on developmental cell death are mediated through NGF."xsd:string |
