Elevation of Hyaluronan Synthase by Magnesium Supplementation Mediated through the Activation of GSK3 and CREB in Human Keratinocyte-Derived HaCaT Cells.

ABSTRACT: Skin barrier damage is present in the patients with hereditary disorders of the magnesium channel, but the molecular mechanism has not been fully understood. We found that the expressions of hyaluronan synthase (HAS), HAS2 and HAS3 are influenced by MgCl₂ concentration in human keratinocyte-derived HaCaT cells. The exposure of cells to a high concentration (5.8 mM) of MgCl₂ induced the elevation of HAS2/3 expression, which was inhibited by mRNA knockdown of nonimprinted in Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome-like domain containing 4 (NIPAL4). Similarly, the content of hyaluronic acid (HA) was changed according to MgCl₂ concentration and the expression of NIPAL4. The MgCl₂ supplementation increased the reporter activities of HAS2/3, which were inhibited by NIPAL4 knockdown, indicating that the expressions of HAS2/3 are up-regulated at the transcriptional level. The reporter activities and mRNA levels of HAS2/3, and the production of HA were inhibited by CHIR-99021, a glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) inhibitor, and naphthol AS-E, a cyclic AMP-response element binding protein (CREB) inhibitor. Furthermore, the mutation in putative CREB-binding sites of promoter region in HAS2/3 genes inhibited the MgCl₂ supplementation-induced elevation of promoter activity. Our results indicate that the expressions of HAS2/3 are up-regulated by MgCl₂ supplementation in HaCaT cells mediated through the activation of GSK3 and CREB. Magnesium may play a pivotal role in maintaining the skin barrier function and magnesium supplementation may be useful to enhance moisturization and wound repair in the skin.

Magnesium Supplementation Attenuates Ultraviolet-B-Induced Damage Mediated through Elevation of Polyamine Production in Human HaCaT Keratinocytes.

Project description:Magnesium ions (Mg2+) have favorable effects such as the improvement of barrier function and the reduction of inflammation reaction in inflammatory skin diseases. However, its mechanisms have not been fully understood. Microarray analysis has shown that the gene expressions of polyamine synthases are upregulated by MgCl2 supplementation in human HaCaT keratinocytes. Here, we investigated the mechanism and function of polyamine production. The mRNA and protein levels of polyamine synthases were dose-dependently increased by MgCl2 supplementation, which were inhibited by U0126, a MEK inhibitor; CHIR-99021, a glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) inhibitor; and Naphthol AS-E, a cyclic AMP-response-element-binding protein (CREB) inhibitor. Similarly, reporter activities of polyamine synthases were suppressed by these inhibitors, suggesting that MEK, GSK3, and CREB are involved in the transcriptional regulation of polyamine synthases. Cell viability was reduced by ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure, which was rescued by MgCl2 supplementation. The UVB-induced elevation of reactive oxygen species was attenuated by MgCl2 supplementation, which was inhibited by cysteamine, a polyamine synthase inhibitor. Our data indicate that the expression levels of polyamine synthases are upregulated by MgCl2 supplementation mediated through the activation of the MEK/GSK3/CREB pathway. MgCl2 supplementation may be useful in reducing the UVB-induced oxidative stress in the skin.

Gene regulation of CYP4F11 in human keratinocyte HaCaT cells.

Project description:Mechanisms regulating CYP4F genes remain under investigation, although characterization of CYP4F regulatory modalities would facilitate the discovery of new drug targets. This present study shows that all-trans- and 9-cis-retinoic acids can inhibit CYP4F11 expression in human keratinocyte-derived HaCaT cells. Transrepression of many genes by retinoic acids is mediated by interactions between retinoid receptors and the activator protein 1 (AP-1) complex. Proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 1beta, which can activate the AP-1 complex, induce CYP4F11 transcription in HaCaT cells. The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-specific inhibitor 1,9-pyrazoloanthrone (SP600125) blocked the induction of CYP4F11 by both cytokines, indicating involvement of the JNK pathway. Furthermore, TNF-alpha failed to induce CYP4F11 transcription when HaCaT cells were preincubated with retinoic acids. Retinoic acids are ligands for the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs). The RXR agonist 6-(1(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)cyclopropyl) nicotinic acid (LG268) greatly induced CYP4F11 transcription, whereas the RAR agonist 4-(2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthalenyl)-1-propenyl)benzoic acid (TTNPB) markedly inhibited CYP4F11 transcription, indicating that down-regulation of CYP4F11 transcription by retinoic acid is mediated by RARs and may also be related to ligand competition for RXRs. Thus, the CYP4F11 gene is positively regulated by multiple signaling pathways in HaCaT keratinocytes, including RXR and JNK signaling pathways.

Mycosporine-like amino acids stimulate hyaluronan secretion by up-regulating hyaluronan synthase 2 via activation of the p38/MSK1/CREB/c-Fos/AP-1 axis.

Project description:Hyaluronan (HA) is an extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan that critically supports the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the skin. Here, we demonstrate that mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), which typically function as UV-absorbing compounds, can stimulate HA secretion from normal human fibroblasts. MAA-stimulated HA secretion was associated with significantly increased and decreased levels of mRNAs encoding HA synthase 2 (HAS2) and the HA-binding protein involved in HA depolymerization (designated HYBID), respectively. Using immunoblotting, we found that MAAs at 10 and at 25 μg/ml stimulate the phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/c-Jun, and mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase 1 (MSK1) (at Thr-581, Ser-360, and Ser-376, respectively) and activation of cAMP-responsive element-binding protein (CREB) and activating transcription factor 2 (ATF2), but not phosphorylation of JUN N-terminal kinase (JNK) or NF-κB (at Ser-276 or Ser-536, respectively), and increased c-Fos protein levels. Moreover, a p38-specific inhibitor, but not inhibitors of MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK), JNK, or NF-κB, significantly abrogated the increased expression of HAS2 mRNA, accompanied by significantly decreased MAA-stimulated HA secretion. These results suggested that the p38-MSK1-CREB-c-Fos-transcription factor AP-1 (AP-1) or the p38-ATF2 signaling cascade is responsible for the MAA-induced stimulation of HAS2 gene expression. Of note, siRNA-mediated ATF2 silencing failed to abrogate MAA-stimulated HAS2 expression, and c-Fos silencing abolished the increased expression of HAS2 mRNA. Our findings suggest that MAAs stimulate HA secretion by up-regulating HAS2 mRNA levels through activation of an intracellular signaling cascade consisting of p38, MSK1, CREB, c-Fos, and AP-1.

Protein dataset of immortalized keratinocyte HaCaT cells and normal human keratinocytes.

Project description:Learning of the molecular mechanisms of the pathological processes development in the normal human keratinocytes (NHK) are difficult. Immortalized keratinocytes HaCaT are often used as an analogue of NHK since they have a number of advantages over the latter - they do not require the presence of growth and differentiation factors in the medium, have unlimited potential for proliferation, demonstrate stable phenotype regardless of the number of passages [1]. Taking into account the properties and characteristics of the HaCaT line, these cells can be considered as a promising experimental model for research of various physiological processes occurring in human keratinocytes. However, to understand the limitations of such an experimental model, a detailed comparative characterization of HaCaT and NHK is required, which can be obtained by carrying out its proteomic analysis. In this article we present datasets obtained through the high-throughput shotgun proteomics analysis of normal human keratinocytes and immortalized HaCaT keratinocytes. As a protocol for proteomic profiling of cells, we used the approach of obtaining LC-MS / MS measurements followed by their processing with Progenesis LC-MS software (Nonlinear Dynamics Ltd.). The mzML files were deposited to the Mendeley Data.

Deletion of hyaluronan synthase 3 inhibits neointimal hyperplasia

Project description:Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Gene Expression Microarrays were used to analyze differentially expressed genes after carotid artery ligation. The aim of this experiment was to detect genes regulated in Has3 deficient as compared to wildtype controls that might be involved in neointimal hyperplasia. Neointimal hyperplasia was induced in female Has3 deficient mice and wildtype controls by ligation of the left common carotid artery. Carotid transcriptome was analyzed 5 days after surgery in ligated and non-ligated carotid arteries.

Magnesium Elevation Promotes Neuronal Differentiation While Suppressing Glial Differentiation of Primary Cultured Adult Mouse Neural Progenitor Cells through ERK/CREB Activation.

Project description:This study aimed to explore the influence of magnesium elevation on fate determination of adult neural progenitor cells (aNPCs) and the underlying mechanism in vitro. Adult neurogenesis, which is the generation of functional neurons from neural precursors, occurs throughout life in restricted anatomical regions in mammals. Magnesium is the fourth most abundant ion in mammals, and its elevation in the brain has been shown to enhance memory and synaptic plasticity in vivo. However, the effects of magnesium on fate determination of aNPCs, which are vital processes in neurogenesis, remain unknown. NPCs isolated from the dentate gyrus of adult C57/BL6 mice were induced to differentiate in a medium with varying magnesium concentrations (0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 mM) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) inhibitor PD0325901. The proportion of cells that differentiated into neurons and glial cells was evaluated using immunofluorescence. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot methods were used to determine the expression of β-III tubulin (Tuj1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). The activation of ERK and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) was examined by Western blot to reveal the underlying mechanism. Magnesium elevation increased the proportion of Tju1-positive cells and decreased the proportion of GFAP-positive cells. Also, the expression of Tuj1 was upregulated, whereas the expression of GFAP was downregulated. Moreover, magnesium elevation enhanced the activation of both ERK and CREB. Treatment with PD0325901 reversed these effects in a dose-dependent manner. Magnesium elevation promoted neural differentiation while suppressing glial cell differentiation, possibly via ERK-induced CREB activation.

Intracellular Ca2+-Mediated AE2 Is Involved in the Vectorial Movement of HaCaT Keratinocyte.

Project description:Keratinocyte migration is initiated toward the wound skin barrier as a crucial process in wound healing. However, the migratory machinery used by keratinocytes is relatively unknown. Histamine signaling, including an increase in the Ca2+ signal, mediated the enhanced protein expression and chloride/bicarbonate exchange activity of anion exchanger AE2 in keratinocytes. In this study, we applied an agarose spot assay to induce a vectorial motion. The vectorial stimulation of the histamine-containing agarose spot enhanced the HaCaT keratinocyte migration, compared to non-directional stimulation. AE2 is associated with the vectorial movement of HaCaT keratinocytes. Enhanced expression of AE2 was mainly associated with an increase in Ca2+ and was abolished by the treatment with the Ca2+ chelating agent BAPTA-AM. These findings revealed that the directionality of Ca2+-exerted stimulation can play a prominent role in facilitating migration through the involvement of AE2 as a migratory machinery in HaCaT keratinocytes.

Weak Ultraviolet B Enhances the Mislocalization of Claudin-1 Mediated by Nitric Oxide and Peroxynitrite Production in Human Keratinocyte-Derived HaCaT Cells.

Project description:A tight junction (TJ) makes a physical barrier in the epidermal cells of skin. Ultraviolet (UV) light may disrupt the TJ barrier, but the mechanism has not been well clarified. Weak UVB (5 mJ/cm2) caused mislocalization of claudin-1 (CLDN1), a component of the TJ strand, and disruption of TJ barrier in human keratinocyte-derived HaCaT cells. The UVB-induced mislocalization of CLDN1 was inhibited by monodansylcadaverine (MDC), a clathrin-dependent endocytosis inhibitor, suggesting that UVB enhances the internalization of CLDN1. Transepidermal electrical resistance and paracellular flux of lucifer yellow, a fluorescent hydrophilic marker, were rescued by MDC. UVB changed neither the total nor phosphorylation levels of CLDN1, but it increased both mono-ubiquitination and tyrosine nitration levels of CLDN1. Fluorescence measurements revealed that UVB increased intracellular free Ca2+, nitric oxide (NO), and peroxynitrite contents, which were inhibited by Opsin2 (OPN2) siRNA, suggesting that OPN2 functions as a UVB sensor. The effects of UVB were inhibited by an antagonist of transient receptor potential type vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and Ca2+ chelator. Both NO donor and peroxynitrite donor induced the mislocalization of CLDN1 and disruption of TJ barrier, which were rescued by a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor and a peroxynitrite scavenger. Weak UVB irradiation induced the disruption of TJ barrier mediated by mislocalization of CLDN1 in HaCaT cells. The OPN2/TRPV1/NOS signaling pathway may be a novel target for preventing destruction of the TJ barrier by UVB irradiation.
