Adverse Events of anti-EGFR Therapy are Triggered by Hair Eruption and Commensal Skin Microbiota

ABSTRACT: EGFR targeted anti-cancer therapy induces severe skin toxicities, which affect life quality in patients. The lack of mechanistic details underlying these adverse events hampers their effective management. Here we identified EGFR as the epidermal master-regulator of the ERK pathway, which secures skin barrier integrity upon hair eruption. EGFR deficient epidermis displays a Th2-dominated expression signature and is permissive for excessive microbiota outgrowth. In the absence of EGFR, opening of the follicular ostia during hair eruption allows invasion of commensal microbiota aggravating barrier disruption and initiating an additional Th1 and Th17 response. Chronic folliculitis leads to Staphylococcus aureus dominated dysbiosis, further exacerbating inflammation and expanding barrier defects. Restoration of epidermal ERK signaling via therapeutic FGF7 treatment or transgenic SOS expression rescues skin barrier integrity in the absence of EGFR. These data reveal a gatekeeper function of the EGFR/ERK cascade in hair follicles securing the epidermal barrier around the erupting hair shaft.

JAK-STAT1 as therapeutic target for EGFR deficiency-associated inflammation and scarring alopecia (scRNA-seq)

Project description:The hair follicle stem cell niche is an immune-privileged microenvironment, characterized by reduced antigen presentation, thus shielding against permanent immune-mediated tissue damage. In this study, we demonstrated the protective role of hair follicle-specific epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) against scarring hair follicle destruction. Mechanistically, disruption of EGFR signalling generated a cell-intrinsic hypersensitivity within the JAK-STAT1 pathway, which, synergistically with interferon gamma expressing CD8 T-cell and NK-cell-mediated inflammation, compromised the stem cell niche. Hair follicle-specific genetic depletion of either JAK1/2 or STAT1 or therapeutic inhibition of JAK1/2 ameliorated the inflammation, restored skin barrier function and activated the residual stem cells to resume hair growth in mouse models of epidermal and hair follicle-specific EGFR deletion. Skin biopsies from EGFR inhibitor-treated and cicatricial alopecia patients indicated active STAT1 signalling and interferon target expression. Notably, a case study of folliculitis decalvans, characterized by progressive hair loss, scaling and perifollicular erythema, demonstrated successful treatment with JAK1/2 inhibition. Our findings offer molecular insights and present a mechanism-based therapeutic strategy for addressing chronic folliculitis associated with EGFR-inhibitor anti-cancer therapy and cicatricial alopecia.

Conditional keratinocyte-specific ADAM17 knockout in mice alters skin homeostasis

Project description:This study investigates the role of ADAM17 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17) in skin homeostasis. Here, we show that mice lacking ADAM17 in keratinocytes have a normal epidermal barrier and skin architecture at birth, but develop pronounced defects in epidermal barrier integrity soon after birth and chronic dermatitis as adults. The dysregulated expression of epidermal differentiation proteins becomes evident 2 days after birth, followed by transepidermal water loss and inflammatory immune cell infiltration. Our results identify a previously unappreciated critical role of the ADAM17/EGFR signaling axis in maintaining the homeostasis of the postnatal epidermal barrier. The genome-wide effects of ADAM17 deficiency were analyzed using Agilent Whole Mouse Genome microarrays. Conditional keratinocyte-specific ADAM17 knockout mice were generated by crossing Adam17flox/flox mice with keratin-14-Cre (Krt14-Cre) transgenic mice. Adam17flox/+Krt14-Cre mice were mated with Adam17flox/flox mice to generate pups of Adam17flox/flox Krt14-Cre positive (cKO) and Krt14-Cre negative (wild-type) control littermates. The genetic background was a mix of 129Sv and C57BL/6. As material, back skin tissue biopsies (postnatal day 10) from n = 2 wild-type skin and n = 2 ADAM17 epidermal KO skin (matched WT-cKO pairs from two different litters) were used in this study.

EGFR and hair shaft differentiation

Project description:EGFR signaling controls skin development and homeostasis in mice and humans and its deficiency causes severe skin inflammation, which might affect epidermal stem cell behaviour. Here, we describe the inflammation-independent effects of EGFR-deficiency during skin morphogenesis and in adult HFSCs. Expression and alternative splicing analysis of RNAseq data from interfollicular epidermis and outer root sheath indicate that EGFR controls genes involved in epidermal differentiation, but also in centrosome function, DNA damage, cell cycle and apoptosis. Genetic experiments employing p53-deletion in EGFR–deficient epidermis reveal that EGFR signalling exhibits p53-dependent functions in proliferative epidermal compartments, as well as p53–independent functions in differentiated hair shaft keratinocytes. Loss of EGFR leads to absence of Lef1 protein specifically in the innermost epithelial hair layers, resulting in disorganization of medulla cells. Thus, our results uncover important spatial and temporal features of cell-autonomous EGFR functions in the epidermis.

Commensal Microbiota Regulates Skin Barrier Function And Repair Via Signaling Through The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor

Project description:Essential to terrestrial life is the formation of a competent skin barrier that prevents desiccation and entry by harmful substances. A tightly orchestrated series of cellular changes is required for the proper formation of the epidermal permeability barrier. These changes occur in the context of the commensal skin microbiota. Using germ free mice and antibiotic depletion models, we demonstrate the microbiota is necessary for proper differentiation and repair of the barrier. These effects were mediated by keratinocyte signaling through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), a xenobiotic receptor that also regulates epidermal differentiation. Murine skin lacking keratinocyte AHR was more susceptible to infection by S. aureus and increased pathology in a model of atopic dermatitis. Topical colonization with a defined consortium of human skin commensals restored barrier competence in germ free skin and during epicutaneous sensitization; these effects were dependent on keratinocyte AHR. We reveal a fundamental role for the commensal skin microbiota in directing skin barrier formation and repair through the AHR, with far-reaching implications for the numerous skin disorders characterized by disrupted epidermal differentiation and/or barrier competence.

TRANSCRIPTIONAL EFFECTS OF INHIBITING EGFR IN KERATINOCYTES

Project description:EGFR activation is important in human epithelial malignancies, including cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, lung, colon, pancreatic and other cancers. Therapies targeting EGFR are currently used to treat such cancers, but one significant drawback to EGFR inhibitor therapies is the associated skin toxicity. This toxicity usually presents as papular or pustular folliculitis, dry skin with pruritus and hair and nails abnormalities. The side effects often limit the usefulness of EGFR inhibitors in cancer treatment. The transcriptional changes caused by EGFR inhibition in epidermal keratinocytes have not been extensively explored. To define the transcriptional changes caused by inhibition of EGFR in primary human epidermal keratinocytes, we treated these cells with Tyrphostin and compared treated and control cultures in parallel, using Affymetrix microarrays. Using metaanalysis approaches, we integrated the observed changes with a large set of already existing data on transcriptional profiling in epidermal keratinocytes. We found that EGFR inhibition suppresses expression of genes associated with keratinocyte proliferation, attachment and motility. Apoptosis is facilitated by both induction of proapoptotic and suppression of antiapoptotic genes. Surprisingly, EGFR inhibition induces expression of markers of epidermal differentiation.

Alteration of keratinocyte gene expression as a result of Flg deficiency

Project description:Defects of filaggrin (FLG) compromise epidermal barrier function and represent an important known genetic risk factor for atopic dermatitis (AD), but also for systemic atopy, including allergic sensitization and asthma. A loss of epidermal barrier integrity can provide a significant stress for the keratinocytes in the skin, either due to the increased moisture evaporation from the skin or increased penetration of the antigens and microflora into the lower epidermal layers. To understand the effect of this loss of barrier integrity on keratinocyte function our aim is to analyze the alterations in the transcriptional profile of keratinocytes from Flg-deficient mice.
