A2E and related toxic molecules are part of lipofuscin found in the retinal
pigment epithelial (RPE) cells in eyes affected by Stargardt's disease,
age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and other retinal degenerations. A novel
therapeutic approach for treating such degenerations involves slowing down the
visual cycle, which could reduce the amount of A2E in the RPE. This can be
accomplished by inhibiting RPE65, which produces 11-cis-retinol from
all-trans-retinyl esters. We recently showed that phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone
(PBN) inhibits RPE65 enzyme activity in RPE cells. In this study we show that
like PBN, certain PBN-derivatives (PBNDs) such as 4-F-PBN, 4-CF3-PBN,
3,4-di-F-PBN, and 4-CH3-PBN can inhibit RPE65 and synthesis of 11-cis-retinol in
in vitro assays using bovine RPE microsomes. We further demonstrate that systemic
(intraperitoneal, IP) administration of these PBNDs protect the rat retina from
light damage. Electroretinography (ERG) and histological analysis showed that
rats treated with PBNDs retained ~90% of their photoreceptor cells compared to a
complete loss of function and 90% loss of photoreceptors in the central retina in
rats treated with vehicle/control injections. Topically applied PBN and PBNDs
also significantly slowed the rate of the visual cycle in mouse and baboon eyes.
One hour dark adaptation resulted in 75-80% recovery of bleachable rhodopsin in
control/vehicle treated mice. Eye drops of 5% 4-CH3-PBN were most effective,
inhibiting the regeneration of bleachable rhodopsin significantly (60% compared
to vehicle control). In addition, a 10% concentration of PBN and 5% concentration
of 4-CH3-PBN in baboon eyes inhibited the visual cycle by 60% and by 30%,
respectively. We have identified a group of PBN related nitrones that can reach
the target tissue (RPE) by systemic and topical application and slow the rate of
rhodopsin regeneration and therefore the visual cycle in mouse and baboon eyes.
PBNDs can also protect the rat retina from light damage. There is potential in
developing these compounds as preventative therapeutics for the treatment of
human retinal degenerations in which the accumulation of lipofuscin may be
pathogenic.
