Downregulated Caveolin-1 expression in circulating monocytes may contribute to the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

ABSTRACT: Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) is the principal component of caveolae that regulates a variety of signaling molecules and receptors. Our previous study revealed CAV-1 reduction in the epidermis of patients with psoriasis, which leads to enhanced Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription activation and cytokine production, suggesting that aberrant CAV-1 expression may contribute to psoriatic inflammation. This study aimed to investigate whether abnormal modulation of CAV-1 on immune cells is involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. We observed that CAV-1 level in psoriasis patients was apparently reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and it was prominent in CD14+ monocytes. CAV-1 silencing in monocytes represented elevated levels of interleukin (IL)-1? and IL-6, and those had enhanced chemotaxis activity. In a murine model of psoriasis-like inflammation induced by imiquimod, we observed a significant CAV-1 reduction in PBMCs. Systemic administration of CAV-1 scaffolding domain peptide significantly improved the skin phenotype with less macrophage infiltration. Taken together, aberrant CAV-1 expression in monocytes may be involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

Project description:Background: Monocytes and macrophages are implicated in inflammation and atherosclerosis, whereas monocytes are involved in psoriasis lesion formation. We previously reported a psoriatic inflammation-associated significant decrease in the membrane protein caveolin-1 (CAV-1) in psoriasis patient monocytes. However, the phenotype of circulating monocytes and their macrophage differentiation in psoriasis patients remain unclear. Objective: We sought to clarify circulating monocyte and monocyte-derived macrophage (MDM) phenotypes in psoriasis patients with and without comorbidities. Method: Thirty-one patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 28 control subjects were included. Surface macrophage markers and inflammatory status were examined in circulating monocytes and MDMs from both groups. Expression of CD36, which mediates macrophage uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), was evaluated in these cells. CAV-1-silenced monocytes were differentiated into macrophages to investigate the effects of CAV-1 downregulation on psoriatic inflammation and atherosclerosis. Results: Macrophage surface markers were detectable in circulating monocytes. A significant M1 shift was detected in monocytes and MDMs in psoriasis patients, including those without cardiovascular disease risk factors, as compared to controls. MDMs of psoriasis patients had more CD36-expressing cells, which are associated with atherosclerosis risk. Additionally, CAV-1-silencing in monocytes increased the likelihood of M1-biased macrophage differentiation and increased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Conclusions: Monocytes from psoriasis patients were more likely to differentiate into M1-dominant macrophages, correlating with inflammatory status and CAV-1 expression. These aberrant inflammatory monocytes not only contribute to psoriatic inflammation by producing psoriatic cytokines, but also have a phenotype that could increase atherosclerosis risk by uptake of oxLDL and formation of foam cells.

Project description:Parafibromin is a protein encoded by the hyperparathyroidism 2 oncosuppressor gene and its downregulated expression is involved in pathogenesis of parathyroid carcinomas. To clarify the roles of parafibromin expression in tumourigenesis and progression of gastric carcinomas, it was examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) on tissue microarray containing gastric carcinomas (n = 508), adenomas (n = 45) and gastritis (n = 49) with a comparison of its expression with clinicopathological parametres of carcinomas. Gastric carcinoma cell lines (MKN28, AGS, MKN45, KATO-III and HGC-27) were studied for parafibromin expression by IHC and western blot. Parafibromin expression was localised in the nucleus of gastric epithelial cells, adenoma, carcinoma cells and cell lines. Its expression was gradually decreased from gastritis to gastric carcinoma, through gastric adenomas (p < 0.05) and inversely correlated with tumour size, depth of invasion, lymphatic invasion, lymph node metastasis and Union Internationale Contre le Cancer (UICC) staging (p < 0.05) but not with sex or venous invasion (p > 0.05). Parafibromin was strongly expressed in older carcinoma patients compared with younger ones (p < 0.05). There was stronger positivity of parafibromin in intestinal-type than diffuse-type carcinomas (p < 0.05). Univariate analysis indicated cumulative survival rate of patients with positive parafibromin expression to be higher than without its expression (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age, tumour size, depth of invasion, lymphatic invasion, lymph node metastasis, UICC staging and Lauren's classification but not sex, venous invasion or parafibromin expression were independent prognostic factors for carcinomas(p < 0.05). Downregulated parafibromin expression possibly contributed to pathogenesis, growth, invasion and metastasis of gastric carcinomas. It was considered as a promising marker to indicate the aggressive behaviours and prognosis of gastric carcinomas.
