Loss of MPZL3 Function Causes Seborrheic Dermatitis-like Phenotype in Mice

ABSTRACT: Seborrheic Dermatitis (SD) is a common inflammatory skin disorder. In this study, we demonstrated SD-like clinical features with associated histology in the Mpzl3 knockout(-/-) mice. Mpzl3-/- skin showed increased macrophage and CD4+ lymphocyte infiltration, however adaptive immunity was not required for the onset of skin inflammation. Furthermore, we detected epidermal barrier defects as suggested by increased dye permeability in Mpzl3-/- embryos and altered gene expression by microarray analysis in pup skin. Taken together, these findings suggest MPZL3 plays an essential role in epidermal differentiation and barrier function, and underscore the interplay between epidermal barrier and immunity in SD. The SD-like clinical and histologic features in the Mpzl3-/- mice also resemble those in patients carrying a frame-shift mutation in ZNF750, a key regulator of epidermal differentiation and a transcriptional activator of the MPZL3 gene. Therefore, we conclude that the ZNF750/MPZL3 pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of SD, and a better understanding of skin inflammation and barrier restoration in the Mpzl3-/- mice will provide insight into the pathogenesis and treatment/prevention of recurrent SD.

ZNF750 in late keratinocyte differentiation

Project description:Disrupted skin barrier due to altered keratinocyte differentiation is common in pathologic conditions such as atopic dermatitis, ichthyosis and psoriasis. However, the molecular cascades governing keratinocyte terminal differentiation are still poorly understood. We have previously demostrated that a dominante mutation in ZNF750 leads to a clinical phenotype that reminiscent of psoriasis and seborrehic dermatitis. We defined ZNF750 as a nuclear effector that is atrongly activated in and essiential for keratinocyte terminal differentiation. ZNF750 knockdown in HaCaT keratinocytes markedly reduced the expression of epidermal late differentiation markers, including gene subsets of epidermal differentiation complex and skin barrier formation such as FLG, LOR, SPINK5, ALOX12B and DSG1, known to be mutated in various human skin diseases. Furthermore, ZNF750 over-expression in undifferentiated cells induced terminal differentiation genes. Thus, ZNF750 is a regulator of keratinocyte terminal differnetiation, and with its downstream targets can serve in future elucidation of therapeutics for common disease of skin barrier Gene expression analysis: To determine the differentaition signature for HaCaT keratinocytes, with ZNF750 gene silencing, total RNA was isolated in biologic triplicates from cells induced to differentiate for twelve days and hybridized to Affymerix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.

Role of Znf750 in skin development

Project description:The skin epidermis is a constantly renewing stratified epithelial tissue that provides essential protective barrier functions. The major barrier is at the outermost layers of the epidermis, formed by terminally differentiated keratinocytes reinforced by proteins and lipids of their cornified envelope (CE), and disruptions to this process characterizes common skin disorders. ZNF750 is an epithelial transcription factor essential for in vitro keratinocyte differentiation, whose autosomal dominant mutation in humans causes psoriasis-like skin disease. Here, we report epidermal-specific Znf750 conditional knockout mouse model utilized to uncover the role of Znf750 in epidermal development. We show that deletion of Znf750 in the developing skin does not block epidermal differentiation, suggesting in vivo compensatory feedback mechanisms, yet results in impaired barrier function and perinatal lethality. Molecular dissection uncovered ultrastructural defects in the differentiated layers of the epidermis, accompanied by alterations in the expression of ZNF750-dependent genes encoding for key proteins and lipids involved in CE formation, including gene subsets known to be mutated in skin disease with impaired barrier function.

However, the molecular cascades governing keratinocyte terminal differentiation are still poorly understood. We have previously demonstrated that a dominant mutation in ZNF750 leads to a clinical phenotype that reminiscent of psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis. We defined ZNF750 as a nuclear effector that is strongly activated in and essential for keratinocyte terminal differentiation. ZNF750 knockdown in HaCaT keratinocytes markedly reduced the expression of epidermal late differentiation markers, including gene subsets of epidermal differentiation complex and skin barrier formation such as FLG, LOR, SPINK5, ALOX12B and DSG1, known to be mutated in various human skin diseases.

ZFP750 regulates skin lipid metabolism and cutaneous barrier

Project description:A life-essential function of the epidermis is to provide a physical barrier that prevents the loss of water and electrolytes. Essential mediators of this permeability barrier function include ceramides, cholesterol and very long chain fatty acids. Accordingly, their alteration may lead to distinct human conditions, including psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. Recently, a frameshift mutation in the human ZNF750 gene, that encodes for a zinc finger transcription factor, causing a seborrhea-like dermatitis with psoriasiform element, has brought ZNF750 as a key element for the maintenance of the epidermal tissue homeostasis. To clarify this hypothesis, with its underlying molecular mechanism, we generated a novel mouse knockout by deleting exon 2. Here, we show that genetic deletion of the mouse homolog ZFP750 results in loss of epidermal permeability barrier function. ZFP750-/- mice die shortly after birth, within 12 hours. In the stratum corneum of ZFP750-/- mice levels of ceramides, nonpolar lipids and intercellular lipid lamellae are significantly reduced. The alteration of the epidermal lipid homeostasis is directly linked to the transcriptional activity of ZFP750. Indeed, in addition to epidermal differentiation genes, ZFP750 directly and/or indirectly regulates the expression of nearly 50 crucial enzymes in the biosynthesis of ceramides, such as SPTLC1, DGAT2, SMPD3, ELOVL7 and DEGS2. Overall, our study identifies the transcription factor ZFP750 as a master regulator of lipid biosynthesis and epidermal homeostasis and may contribute to our understanding of the pathogenesis of several human skin diseases.

Disrupted transcriptional network in ΔNp63 AEC tissue model [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:The transcriptional basis for disrupted epidermal differentiation arising from TP63 AEC mutations remains to be elucidated. Here we present an organotypic model of AEC dysfunction that phenocopies differentiation defects observed in AEC patient skin. Transcriptional analysis of model AEC tissue revealed impaired induction of differentiation regulators, including OVOL1, GRHL3, KLF4, PRDM1 and ZNF750. Genome wide binding analyses of TP63 during epidermal differentiation showed direct binding of OVOL1, GRHL3, and ZNF750 promoters suggesting AEC mutants prevent normal activation of these targets by direct transcriptional interference. Remarkably, exogenous ZNF750 restores impaired epidermal differentiation caused by AEC mutation. Thus, repression of ZNF750 is central to disrupted epidermal differentiation in model AEC tissue.

ZNF750 Drives Terminal Epidermal Differentiation via Induction of Klf4

Project description:Disrupted differentiation is a hallmark of numerous diseases, which in epidermis alone impact >25% of the population. In a search for dominant mediators of differentiation, we defined a requirement for the ZNF750 nuclear protein in terminal epidermal differentiation. ZNF750 controlled genes mutated in numerous human skin diseases, including FLG, LOR, LCE3B, ALOXE3, and SPINK5. ZNF750 potently induced progenitor differentiation via an evolutionarily conserved C2H2 zinc finger motif. The epidermal master regulator, p63, bound the ZNF750 promoter and was necessary for its induction. ZNF750 restored differentiation to p63-deficient tissue, suggesting it acts downstream of p63. A search for functionally important ZNF750 targets via analysis of ZNF750-regulated genes identified KLF4, a transcription factor that activates late epidermal differentiation genes. ZNF750 binds the Klf4 promoter and controls its expression. ZNF750 thus provides a direct link between a tissue-specifying factor, p63, and an effector of terminal differentiation, Klf4, and represents a potential future target for disorders of this process.
