CYP2S1 might regulate proliferation and immune response of keratinocyte in psoriasis.

ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is an autoimmune skin disorder influenced by genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. We previously found CYP2S1 intragenic DNA methylation cg19430423 site strongly hypomethylated in psoriatic skin tissues. In this study, we performed methylation loci fine-mapping to search the top signals in the entire CYP2S1 gene region, and further carried out gene expression assay, cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation and migration in CYP2S1 overexpressed (CYP2S1^over) and silenced (siRNA) human keratinocytes. Target bisulphite conversion sequencing revealed cg19430423 and nearby two loci were the top differentially methylated loci. These three loci located within active enhancer region marked by H3K4Me1 and H3K27AC peaks. Cg19430423 might not bind with ATF1 directly. CYP2S1^over repressed NHEK cell proliferation, but have no confirmed evidence on affecting migration, apoptosis and differentiation. Real-time PCR showed that CYP2S1 inhibited expression of IL1β, IL8, IL33, IL36, LL37, CXCL10 and CCL20 gene. In summary, CYP2S1 might inhibit keratinocyte proliferation, and modulate immune response through IL-8, IL-33, IL-36, CXCL-10, CCL20, thus contribute to the development of psoriasis.

Pyruvate Kinase M2 Mediates Glycolysis Contributes to Psoriasis by Promoting Keratinocyte Proliferation.

Project description:Psoriasis is characterized by keratinocyte proliferation and immune cell infiltration. M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase (PKM2) was reported to have an important role in cell proliferation, which is a rate-limiting enzyme that regulates the final step of glycolysis. However, how PKM2 regulates cell metabolism and proliferation in psoriatic keratinocytes is still poorly understood. Interestingly, we found that PKM2 was highly expressed in psoriatic epidermis from patients and mouse models. PKM2 overexpression promoted keratinocyte glycolytic metabolism while knockdown inhibited keratinocyte proliferation and glycolysis. Mice lacking PKM2 specifically in keratinocytes, pharmacological inhibition of PKM2 or glycolysis inhibited keratinocyte proliferation and showed obvious remission in an imiquimod-induced psoriatic mouse model. Moreover, the inhibitor of the EGF-receptor blocked EGF-stimulated PKM2 expression and glycolysis in keratinocytes. We identify PKM2 as an upregulated gene in psoriasis. PKM2 is essential in keratinocyte over-proliferation and may represent a therapeutic target for psoriasis.

Chondroitin 6-sulfate represses keratinocyte proliferation in mouse skin, which is associated with psoriasis.

Project description:Chondroitin sulfates are implicated in epidermal biology, but functional significance of chondroitin sulfates remains unclear. Here, we report that chondroitin 6-sulfate is important for the maintenance of epidermal homeostasis. Mice deficient in chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase-1 (C6st-1), which is involved in biosynthesis of chondroitin 6-sulfate, exhibited keratinocyte hyperproliferation and impaired skin permeability barrier function. Chondroitin 6-sulfate directly interacted with the EGF receptor and negatively controlled ligand-induced EGF receptor signaling. Normal function of hyperproliferative C6st-1-knockout mouse-derived keratinocytes was rescued by treatment with exogenous chondroitin 6-sulfate. Epidermal hyperplasia, induced using imiquimod, was more severe in C6st-1-knockout mice than in C6st-1 wild-type mice. Taken together, these findings indicate that chondroitin 6-sulfate represses keratinocyte proliferation in normal skin, and that the expression level of C6st-1 may be associated with susceptibility to psoriasis.

EZH2-dependent epigenetic modulation of histone H3 lysine-27 contributes to psoriasis by promoting keratinocyte proliferation.

Project description:Psoriasis is characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation. While significant progress has been made in understanding the molecular mechanism regulating the proliferation of keratinocytes, little is known about the epigenetic factors that control this process. EZH2 and EZH2 mediated trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) was previously shown ectopically expressed in carcinoma and mediated proliferation, thereby we sought to clarify the role of EZH2-H3K27me3 in the proliferation of psoriatic keratinocyte. Interestingly, we found that EZH2 and H3K27me3 were both overexpressed in the epidermis of psoriatic lesional skin compared to normal skin. In vitro, the expression of EZH2 and H3K27me3 was stimulated in human keratinocytes treated with mixture of psoriasis-related cytokines pool (TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-17A, and IL-22). Knockdown of EZH2 significantly reduced keratinocyte proliferative activity. Results from mRNA microarray analysis suggested that Kallikrein-8 (KLK8) might be the target gene of EZH2 in psoriatic keratinocytes. Overexpression or knockdown KLK8 could partially reverse the abnormal proliferation of keratinocytes caused by knockdown or overexpression of EZH2. In vivo, the inhibitor of EZH2, GSK126 could ameliorate the imiquimod-induced psoriasiform lesion. These results suggest that EZH2 might be a therapeutic target for the treatment of psoriasis.

Topical application of an amygdalin analogue reduces inflammation and keratinocyte proliferation in a psoriasis mouse model.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease without cure. Systemic and biological therapies are the most effective treatments for patients with severe psoriasis. However, these drugs can cause serious side effects from extended use. Safe and effective topical drugs are needed to decrease psoriatic plaques and reduce the risk of adverse effects. Amygdalin analogues are stable small molecules that showed benefits in psoriasis xenografts to immune-deficient mice by systemic application. However, whether topical application of these amygdalin analogues could reduce the progression of the psoriatic phenotype in an immune-competent organism is unknown. Here, we analyse the efficiency of topical application of an amygdalin analogue cream on a well-established genetic and immune-competent mouse model of psoriasis. Topical application of an amygdalin analogue cream ameliorates psoriasis-like disease in mice, reduces epidermal hyperplasia and skin inflammation. Amygdalin analogue treatment leads to reduced expression of local pro-inflammatory cytokines, but systemic pro-inflammatory cytokines that are highly expressed in psoriasis patients such as IL-17A, IL6 or G-CSF are also decreased. Furthermore, expression of important mediators of psoriasis initiation and epidermal hyperplasia, such as TNFa, S100A9 and TSLP, is decreased in lesional epidermis after amygdalin analogue treatment. In conclusion, we show that amygdalin analogue reduces the proliferative capacity of psoriasis-like stimulated keratinocytes and their inflammatory response in vivo and in vitro. These results suggest that topical application of amygdalin analogues may represent a safe and effective treatment for psoriasis.

miR-146b Probably Assists miRNA-146a in the Suppression of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Inflammatory Responses in Psoriasis.

Project description:miR-146a inhibits inflammatory responses in human keratinocytes and in different mouse models of skin inflammation. Little is known about the role of miR-146b in the skin. In this study, we confirmed the increased expression of miR-146a and miR-146b (miR-146a/b) in the lesional skin of patients with psoriasis. The expression of miR-146a was approximately twofold higher than that of miR-146b in healthy human skin, and it was more strongly induced by stimulation of proinflammatory cytokines in keratinocytes and fibroblasts. miR-146a/b target genes regulating inflammatory responses or proliferation were altered in the skin of patients with psoriasis, among which FERMT1 was verified as a direct target of miR-146a. In silico analysis of genome-wide data from >4,000 psoriasis cases and >8,000 controls confirmed a moderate association between psoriasis and genetic variants in the miR-146a encoding gene. Transfection of miR-146a/b suppressed and inhibition enhanced keratinocyte proliferation and the expression of psoriasis-related target genes. Enhanced expression of miR-146a/b-influenced genes was detected in cultured keratinocytes from miR-146a-/- and skin fibroblasts from miR-146a-/- and miR-146b-/- mice stimulated with psoriasis-associated cytokines as compared with wild-type mice. Our results indicate that besides miR-146a, miR-146b is expressed and might be capable of modulation of inflammatory responses and keratinocyte proliferation in psoriatic skin.

miR-146b correlates with increased disease activity and psoriatic tissue inflammation and promotes keratinocyte proliferation in psoriasis.

Project description:The present study aimed to investigate the expression of microRNA (miR)-146b in psoriatic tissue and its correlation with psoriasis activity and inflammation. The effect of miR-146b overexpression on keratinocyte proliferation and apoptosis was also explored. The expression of miR-146b in the psoriasis-affected tissue and non-affected tissue of 110 patients was determined via reverse transcription-quantitative (RT-q)PCR. The psoriasis-affected body surface area and psoriasis area severity index (PASI) score were recorded for evaluating disease activity. The expression of various inflammatory cytokines in psoriasis-affected tissue was also detected via RT-qPCR. miR-146b overexpression and control plasmids were constructed and transfected into HaCaT cells in vitro. Subsequently, cell proliferation, apoptosis and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced cell apoptosis were determined. The results revealed that the expression of miR-146b was increased in psoriasis-affected tissue compared with that in unaffected tissue. The results obtained from a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that miR-146b levels were able to discriminate between psoriasis-affected tissue and unaffected tissue, with an area under the curve value of 0.781 (95% CI: 0.720-0.843). In addition, miR-146b expression in psoriatic tissue was correlated with an increased PASI score in patients with psoriasis. miR-146b expression in psoriatic tissue was positively correlated with TNF-α, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-17 mRNA levels. In vitro, miR-146b overexpression enhanced HaCaT cell proliferation and suppressed apoptosis as well as TRAIL-induced apoptosis when compared with that in control-transfected HaCaT cells. In conclusion, miR-146b was positively correlated with disease activity and psoriatic tissue inflammation. Keratinocyte proliferation was also promoted in psoriasis.

MiR-150 regulates human keratinocyte proliferation in hypoxic conditions through targeting HIF-1? and VEGFA: Implications for psoriasis treatment.

Project description:Psoriasis is a common and chronic autoimmune skin disease which affects 2 to 3% of the world population. Abnormal proliferation of human keratinocytes is an important feature of psoriasis, along with local hypoxia and vascular abnormal growth. To leverage recent molecular findings into the personalized treatment of psoriasis, we need a strategy that integrates clinical stratification with molecular phenotyping. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a large family of small non-coding RNA which regulates diverse biological process, including cell proliferation, by modulating gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. In the present study, we indicated that miR-150 specifically down-regulated expressed in psoriatic skin lesions, and could inhibit HaCaT cells and primary adult human keratinocytes (HKCs)' proliferation in either normal or hypoxia conditions; by direct targeting, miR-150 could also regulate the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1? (HIF-1?) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA). In addition, we found that HIF-1? and VEGFA were highly expressed in the lesional psoriatic skin compared with the non-lesional psoriatic skin, and negatively correlated with miR-150 expression. Taken together, we indicated miR-150 regulates human keratinocytes' proliferation in hypoxic conditions through targeting HIF-1? and VEGFA in psoriasis for the first time, and provide diagnostic markers and a novel target for psoriasis treatment.

Lysophosphatidic Acid Mediates Imiquimod-Induced Psoriasis-like Symptoms by Promoting Keratinocyte Proliferation through LPAR1/ROCK2/PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Recently, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)/LPAR5 signaling has been reported to be involved in both NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages and keratinocyte activation to produce inflammatory cytokines, contributing to psoriasis pathogenesis. However, the effect and molecular mechanisms of LPA/LPAR signaling in keratinocyte proliferation in psoriasis remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of LPAR1/3 inhibition on imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like mice. Treatment with the LPAR1/3 antagonist, ki16425, alleviated skin symptoms in IMQ-induced psoriasis-like mouse models and decreased keratinocyte proliferation in the lesion. It also decreased LPA-induced cell proliferation and cell cycle progression via increased cyclin A2, cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)2, and CDK4 expression and decreased p27Kip1 expression in HaCaT cells. LPAR1 knockdown in HaCaT cells reduced LPA-induced proliferation, suppressed cyclin A2 and CDK2 expression, and restored p27Kip1 expression. LPA increased Rho-associated protein kinase 2 (ROCK2) expression and PI3K/AKT activation; moreover, the pharmacological inhibition of ROCK2 and PI3K/AKT signaling suppressed LPA-induced cell cycle progression. In conclusion, we demonstrated that LPAR1/3 antagonist alleviates IMQ-induced psoriasis-like symptoms in mice, and in particular, LPAR1 signaling is involved in cell cycle progression via ROCK2/PI3K/AKT pathways in keratinocytes.

Etanercept decreases the innate immune wounding response in psoriasis.

Project description:Cathelicidin is increased when normal skin is injured and in psoriasis lesions where it has been suggested to play a pivotal role in inflammation through interactions with self-DNA and toll-like receptor 9 (TLR-9) in keratinocytes and plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Because of etanercept's success in treating psoriasis, we hypothesized that etanercept may suppress TLR-9 and cathelicidin induction. Examination of experimentally induced wounds of psoriatic lesional and non-lesional skin, and comparison with wounded normal skin, shows that the induction of cathelicidin and TLR-9 is greatly enhanced in lesional psoriatic skin. Six weeks of etanercept appears not to affect the baseline expression of cathelicidin or TLR-9, but does blunt the induction of cathelicidin in psoriasis with wounding. These findings support the role of cathelicidin in the enhancement of local inflammation in psoriasis and may partially explain one of the mechanisms enabling TNF-? inhibitors to successfully treat this disorder.

Advances in the pathogenesis of psoriasis: from keratinocyte perspective.

Project description:Psoriasis is a complex long-lasting inflammatory skin disease with high prevalence and associated comorbidity. It is characterized by epidermal hyperplasia and dermal infiltration of immune cells. Here, we review the role of keratinocytes in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, focusing on factors relevant to genetics, cytokines and receptors, metabolism, cell signaling, transcription factors, non-coding RNAs, antimicrobial peptides, and proteins with other different functions. The critical role of keratinocytes in initiating and maintaining the inflammatory state suggests the great significance of targeting keratinocytes for the treatment of psoriasis.
