Discrimination of dysplastic nevi from common melanocytic nevi by cellular and molecular criteria

ABSTRACT: Cellular and molecular differences between DNs and CMNs are not completely understood. Using cDNA microarray, quantitative RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry, we molecularly characterized DNs and analyzed the difference between DNs and CMNs. total RNA was extratced from sliced full thickness tissue samples for both nevi samples. total RNA was extratced from bulk puch biopsy samples for normal skin.

Human blood monocyte response to IL-17A in culture

Project description:The levels of IL-17 are elevated in the serum of psoriasis patients. However, the effects of IL-17 on circulating leukocytes bearing the IL-17 receptors are not fully understood. Of particular interest are monocytes, as the activation and recruitment of effector monocytes underlies the pathobiology of a number systemic inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis co-morbidities, such as atherosclerosis, metabolic regulation in adipose tissue and psoriatic arthritis. Human monocytes highly express both IL-17RA and IL-17RC and chemotraffick in response to IL-17. We explored the impact of IL-17 on blood monocytes. Using cDNA microarray, , we molecularly characterized how human blood monocytes respond to IL-17A in vitro. total RNA was extratced from CD14+ monocytes (isolated from human blood) after 24hr culture with or without IL-17A (200ng/mL)

Defining an invasion signature at the leading edge of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC): IL-24 driven MMP-7 and MMP-13 expression.

Project description:Purpose: Primary cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can be an invasive cancer in skin and has the potential to metastasize. We aimed to define the cancer related molecular changes that distinguish non-invasive from invasive SCC. Experimental design: We used laser capture microdissection technique in combination with cDNA microarray analysis in order to determine molecular changes that associate with SCC progression. Results: We defined invasion-associated genes as those udifferentially regulated only in SCC invasive nests, but not in actinic keratosis-like dysplasia or SCC in situ regions, compared to normal epidermis. We designated these genes as “invasion signature gene set of cutaneous SCC”. Overall we found 383 up- and 354 down-regulated probe-sets that constitute the invasion signature gene set. As part of this profile, SCC invasion is associated with aberrant gene expression changes of numerous MMPs including MMP7 (FCH=5.43, FDR<0.01) and MMP13 (FCH=12.53, FDR<0.01). IL-24 is also up-regulated in the leading invasive edge of SCC (FCH=6.74, FDR<0.01). IL-24 enhanced mRNA expression of both MMP7 and MMP13 in a human SCC cell line. Laminin332, which is one of the target molecules of MMP7, had altered expression at the leading edge of SCC invasion nests at both the genomic and protein level. Conclusions: We defined the distribution of MMPs within human cutaneous SCC tissue showing distinct expression with progression from normal skin to actinic keratosis to SCC in situ to invasive carcinoma. We further suggest a potential role for IL-24 in progression to invasion via MMP7 and MMP13. Laser capture microdissection was performed on 5 cases of actinic keratosis, 5 cases of in situ SCC, and 5 cases of invasive SCC.

Suppression of inflammation in psoriasis blood after IL-17 treatment with ixekizumab

Project description:The effect of anti-IL-17 treatment on systemic inflammation is not fully understand. Using cDNA microarray, genomic analysis methods such as GSEA and ingenuity, we characterized the transcriptional changes in the blood of psoriasis patients afer systemic neutralization of IL-17 compared to baseline (before treatment). We also compared the whole blood-derived transcriptome between psoraisis patients at baseline and healthy volunteers to examine systemic inflammation in psoriasis patients. total RNA was extratced from whole blood from psoriasis patients at baseline and after two weeks of treatment; total RNA was extracted from the whole blood of healthy individuals

Transcription profiling of skin samples from atopic dermatitis patients before and after treatment with cyclosporine A

Project description:After 2 and 12 weeks of treatment, we observed significant reductions of 51% and 72%, respectively, in SCORAD scores. Clinical improvements were associated with significant gene expression changes in lesional but also nonlesional skin, particularly reductions in levels of TH2-, TH22-, and some TH17-related molecules (ie, IL-13, IL-22, CCL17, S100As, and elafin/peptidase inhibitor 3), and modulation of epidermal hyperplasia and differentiation measures. Cyclosporine A (CsA)'s effects on AD skin pathology were evaluated by using gene expression and immunohistochemistry studies in baseline, week 2, and week 12 lesional and nonlesional biopsy specimens from 19 patients treated with 5 mg/kg/day CsA for 12 weeks.

IL-17 and TNF synergistically induce growth-associated cytokines in melanocytes while suppressing melanogenesis

Project description:In this study, we sought to determine how IL-17 and TNF influence normal human melanocytes, either alone, or with both cytokines together. We reveal a dichotomous effect of IL-17 and TNF, which not only elicit essential mitogenic cytokines but also suppress melanogenesis by down-regulating genes of melanogenesis pathway Comparison of one batch of primary human melanocyte line cultured in serum free media, treated with TNF and/or IL-17, for either 24 or 48 hours.

Molecular aspects of melanocytic dysplastic nevi.

Project description:Melanocytic dysplastic nevi were first described in both patients and their relatives who had one or several cutaneous malignant melanomas. Most of these dysplastic lesions are biologically stable, but some of them have severe histological atypia and can progress further to melanomas. Although several studies have suggested the etiological importance of dysplastic nevi in the development of melanomas, comprehensive reviews of the molecular changes in these dysplastic lesions are still scarce. To remedy this issue, this article analyzes the available molecular information about dysplastic nevi and provides the current state of knowledge regarding the karyotypic abnormalities of the melanoma/dysplastic nevus trait and the involvement of allelic loss, tumor suppressor genes, mismatch repair proteins, microsatellite instability, oncogenes, extracellular matrix proteins, and growth factors in the genesis of these lesions. These studies suggest that although some of these lesions represent "genetic dead-ends," others represent intermediate lesional steps in the melanoma tumorigenesis pathway.

CD4+ T cells Reject Benign Melanocytic Nevi

Project description:Human CD4+ T cells mediate spontaneous rejection of acquired benign melanocytic nevi, in the majority of cases, through a break in peripheral tolerance. For the remaining cases, nevi remain stable and do not progress to malignancy. In this experiment, we compared gene expression of post-transplant rejected nevi to stable nevi in order to better characterize their transcriptional profiles.
