Mechanical stretch induces hair regeneration through the alternative activation of macrophages

ABSTRACT: Tissues and cells in organism are continuously exposed to a complicated set of mechanical cues from the environment. Mechanical stimulations affect cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and determine tissue homeostasis as well as repair. By using a specially designed skin-stretching device, we discover hair stem cells proliferate in response to stretch and hair regeneration occurs only when proper strain and duration were delivered. Counterbalance between WNT and BMP-2 followed by a two-step mechanism was identified through molecular and genetic analyses. Macrophages were first recruited by chemokines elicited by stretch and polarized to M2 phenotype. Growth factors such as HGF and IGF-1 released by M2 macrophages then activated hair stem cells and facilitate hair regeneration. Collectively, a hierarchical control from mechanics, chemical signals, cell behaviors, to tissue responses was revealed. This novel finding shed new light on regenerative medicine and disease control since one can manipulate cellular processes through simple mechanical stimulation.

Cyclic mechanical stretch-induced gene expression

Project description:With gene expression profiling it was aimed to identify the differentially expressed genes associated with the regulation of the cytoskeleton to investigate the stretch-induced cell alignment mechanism. A whole genome microarray based analysis of the stretch-induced gene expression changes was done. Gene expression was measured at the beginning of the alignment process showing first reoriented cells after 5 h stretching and at the end after 24 h, where nearly all cells are aligned. Cyclic mechanical stretching of cells results in cellular alignment perpendicular to the stretch direction regulating cellular response. This stress response is assumed to be an adaptation mechanism to reduce extensive stretching but also acts as architectural restructuring changing performance and biomechanics of the tissue. Gene expression profiling of control vs. stretched primary human dermal fibroblasts after 5 h and 24 h demonstrated the regulation of differentially expressed genes associated with metabolism, differentiation and morphology. Primary human dermal fibroblasts from ten donors were cultured on Bioflex culture plates and stretched for 5h and 24 h or left untreated to avoid changes according to cell culturing. Each of the subject provided 4 samples (control/treated and 5hrs/24hrs) resulting in 40 samples total.

Mechanical stretch exacerbates imiquimod-induced dermatitis associated with increased IL-1β and IL-6 production.

Project description:Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disease which tends to affect the extensor surface of the body. IL-17A and IL-23 antagonists are currently the main and powerful therapeutic choices but the skin areas which are subject to stretching, namely knees, elbows and the lower back, are often reluctant to treatments. ; Hence, we hypothesize that stretching has a dominant effect on psoriasis development. First, we found that, in imiquimod-treated psoriasis-like mouse model, mechanical stretch promotes a significant increase in clinical severity, epidermal thickness, and inflammatory cell infiltration of psoriasis. Transcriptomics profiling revealed that Il6 and Il1b genes are significantly upregulated and play a major role in the activation and recruitment of neutrophils, macrophages, and T cells in stretching group. Upstream analysis further identifies NF-κB as a critical transcription factor to drive pro-inflammatory cytokine expression during stretch application. Immunofluorescence staining confirmed the increased expression of IL-1β and IL-6. In summary, our findings uncover that the mechanical biology contributes to psoriasis progression mainly through enhancing the production of IL-1β and IL-6.

Phosphoproteome of cyclic stretch A549 and IMR-90

Project description:Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of death. However, most of the researches were based on the traditional cell-culturing method. Whereas cells of lung are subjected to the mechanical forces periodically while breathing. In the present study, we applied cyclic stretch to stimulate the continuously contracting physical condition. We uncovered the stretching force-induced phosphoproteome in lung cancer cell A549 and fibroblast IMR-90. 2048 and 2604 phosphosites corresponding to 837 and 1008 phosphoproteins were identified in A549 and IMR-90, respectively. Interestingly, cytoskeleton reorganization and mitochondrial localization were enriched in the significantly expressed phosphoproteins in response to cyclic stretch. Indeed, we found this physical stress changed cell alignment thus disrupted mitochondrial dynamics. We proved that mitochondrial fusion is induced by uniaxial stretch in 2 cell lines. This study reveals the molecular mechanism of cyclic stretch and supports that stretching force enhanced cellular rearrangement and mitochondrial fusion in lung cells.

Stretch growth does not alter gene expression

Project description:Differentiated PC12 cells were magnetically labeled with magnetic nanoparticles (MNP). External magnetic fields were used to mechanically stretch the MNP-labeled neurites. We found that mechanical stretching of the neurites induces mass addition and neurite elongation. We performed RNAseq of MNP-labelled cells in stretched versus non-stretched conditions and we did not found gene expression dysregulation, confirming that the two conditions were identical and excluding cytotoxicity or involvement of nuclear mechanotransdution. Indeed, local mechanisms triggered by the stretching of the MNP-labelled neurite would be responsible for neurite elongation.

Gene expression changes under cyclic mechanical stretch in rat retinal Muller cells

Project description:The retina is often subjected to tractional forces in a variety of conditions, for instance, pathological myopia, proliferative vitreoretinopathy. As the predominant glial element in the sensory retina, Muller cells are responsible for the homeostatic and metabolic support of retinal neurons and active players in virtually all forms of retinal injury and disease. Besides, Muller cells span the entire retinal thickness, extending from the inner to the outer limiting membranes, with cell bodies located in the inner nuclear layer and lateral processes expanding into the plexiform layers of the tissue. Because of this unique morphology, Muller cells can sense even minute changes in the retinal structure because of the mechanical stretching of their long processes or side branches. Thus, itM-bM-^@M-^Ys reasonable to infer that Muller cells also participate in ocular diseases when the retina is overstretched. In this study, we aim to investigate the whole genome regulation of Muller cells under mechanical stretching, which may help in excluding possible molecular mechanisms that would account for many retinal diseases in which the retina is often subjected to mechanical forces. We used microarrays to identify patterns of gene expression changes induced by cyclic mechanical stretching in Muller cells. Rat Muller cells were seeded onto flexible bottom culture plates and subjected to a cyclic stretching regimen of 15% equibiaxial stretching for 1 and 24 h.Muller cells cultured under the same conditions but with no applied mechanical strain were considered as the unstretched control. At each time points (1 and 24 h), three totally independent experiments (3 stretched samples and 3 control samples) were conducted. Muller cells were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Stretch (S); Control (C)

Comprehensive analysis of differentially expressed genes responsed to mechanical stretch in human corneal keratocytes.

Project description:Mechanical stimulation is an important factor for the development of complications after LASIK, but the molecular mechanism still remains unclear. In this study, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes responded to mechanical stretch in human corneal keratocytes. Furthermore, the specific signal transduction pathways were discussed. Mechanical stretch regulated gene expression was measured in human corneal keratocytes subjected to cyclic stretch (0-15% elongation, 0.5 Hz, sine waveform) for 0, 1 and 6 hours, respectively. Totally, 840 differentially expressed genes were identified in keratocytes under mechanical stretching, among which 493 genes were up-regulated and 388 genes were down-regulated. Theses differential genes were mainly involved in cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, ECM-receptor interaction, Focal adhesion, TNF signaling pathway, and MAPK signaling pathway.

The ion channel Trpc6a regulates the cardiomyocyte regenerative response to mechanical stretch

Project description:Myocardial damage caused for example by cardiac ischemia leads to ventricular volume overload resulting in increased stretch of the remaining myocardium. In adult mammals, these changes trigger an adaptive cardiomyocyte hypertrophic response which, if the damage is extensive, will ultimately lead to pathological hypertrophy and heart failure. Conversely, in response to extensive myocardial damage, cardiomyocytes in the adult zebrafish heart and neonatal mice proliferate and completely regenerate the damaged myocardium. We therefore hypothesized that in adult zebrafish, changes in mechanical loading due to myocardial damage may act as a trigger to induce cardiac regeneration. Based, on this notion we sought to identify mechanosensors which could be involved in detecting changes in mechanical loading and triggering regeneration. Here we show using a combination of knockout animals, RNAseq and in vitro assays that the mechanosensitive ion channel Trpc6a is required by cardiomyocytes for successful cardiac regeneration in adult zebrafish. Furthermore, using a cyclic cell stretch assay, we have determined that Trpc6a induces the expression of components of the AP1 transcription complex in response to mechanical stretch. Our data highlights how changes in mechanical forces due to myocardial damage can be detected by mechanosensors which in turn can trigger cardiac regeneration.

Mechanical stretch promotes invasion of lung cancer cells via activation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha

Project description:Most of the gas exchange in the human body is carried out by the lungs, and the physiological activities of the lungs are uninterrupted. Due to the deterioration of the external environment, pulmonary cell lesions are common clinical lung diseases. Mechanical cyclic stretching is one kind of bionic technology to observe lung cancer cells. The A549 cell line is the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line derived from a primary lung tumor. This study investigated the effects of mechanical cyclic stretching on A549 cell activity and gene expression profile. Whereas mechanical cyclic stretching had no significant difference in colony formation and cell migration of A549 cells, the cell invasion increased significantly in A549 cells after stretching. In addition, the microarray data showed that mechanical cyclic stretching altered gene expression, induced inflammation of cells, and activation of Wnt/β-catenin and tumor necrosis factor pathways. More importantly, mechanical cyclic stretching activated the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) protein. Therefore, the increase of cell invasion induced by mechanical cyclic stretching might be associated with the activation of TNF-α in human lung adenocarcinoma cells.
