Project description:We found that PC3 cells secrete proteases that cleavae and activate PAR1 and PAR2. In order to understand gene regulation by this autocrine signaling loop, PAR1 and PAR2 knockout cell gene expression was compared to WT PC3 cell gene expression. Proteinase activated receptors (PARs) are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) activated by limited N-terminal proteolysis. A variety of proteolytic enzymes derived from the coagulation cascade and inflammatory milieu activate PARs, however specific activators in different physiological and pathophysiological contexts remain poorly defined. PARs are highly expressed in many cancer cells and regulate various aspects of tumor growth and metastasis. Endogenous proteinases that regulate PARs in the setting of various tumors however remains unresolved. Prostate cancer (PCa) remains a major cause of mortality in men despite advances in early detection and clinical intervention. PAR expression has been reported in PCa, however, their role here remains poorly defined. In androgen independent PC3 cells, we find functional expression of PAR1 and PAR2 but not PAR4. Using genetically encoded PAR cleavage biosensors, we find that PCa cells secrete proteolytic enzymes that cleave PARs and trigger autocrine signaling. Deletion of PAR1 and PAR2 using CRISPR/Cas9 combined with microarray analysis revealed genes that are differentially regulated by this autocrine signalling mechanism. Interestingly, several genes that are known PCa prognostic factors or biomarker were differentially expressed in PAR1-KO and PAR2-KO PC3 cells. We also examined PAR1 and PAR2 regulation of PCa cell proliferation and migration using PAR1 and PAR2-KO PC3 cells, as well as PAR1 and PAR2 specific agonists and antagonists. We find that PAR1 and PAR2 have opposite effects on PC3 cell proliferation and migration. In summary, we have identified an autocrine signaling mechanism through PARs as a regulator of PCa cell function.

Project description:KLK6 expression in skin induces PAR1-mediated psoriasiform dermatitis and inflammatory joint disease
| PRJNA603350 | ENA
Project description:The spread of inflammation from the skin to the joints is a key issue in the pathogenesis of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Psoriasis (PsO), one of the most common skin diseases, usually precedes joint manifestations, suggesting skin-joint disease spread, which occurs in about 30% of psoriasis patients. Until now, it has been unclear why the inflammatory process remains restricted to the skin in some patients with PsO, whereas it spreads to tendons and joints in others. Using a preclinical model of PsA, we aimed to elucidate the skin-joint axis, i.e. the spread of psoriatic inflammation from the skin to the joints. KAEDE transgenic mice expressing a photo-convertible fluorescent reporter were used to assess cell trafficking from inflamed skin to other organs in the mouse model of IL-23 overexpression (IL-23OE) induced PsA. Psoriatic skin lesions were irradiated with UV light to induce the photoswitch from KAEDE-GREEN to KAEDE-RED. Migrating cells were characterised by scRNAseq.

Project description:Herein we demonstrate the efficacy of an unbiased proteomics screening approach for studying protein expression changes in the KC-Tie2 psoriasis mouse model, identifying multiple protein expression changes in the mouse and validating these changes in human psoriasis. KC-Tie2 mouse skin samples (n=3) were compared with littermate controls (n=3) using gel-based fractionation followed by label-free protein expression analysis. 5482 peptides mapping to 1281 proteins were identified and quantitated: 105 proteins exhibited fold-changes ≥2.0 including: stefin A1 (average fold change of 342.4 and an average P = 0.0082; cystatin A, human orthologue); slc25a5 (average fold change of 46.2 and an average P = 0.0318); serpinb3b (average fold change of 35.6 and an average P = 0.0345; serpinB1, human orthologue); and kallikrein related peptidase 6 (average fold change of 4.7 and an average P = 0.2474; KLK6). We independently confirmed mouse gene expression-based increases of selected genes including serpinb3b (17.4-fold, P < 0.0001), KLK6 (9.0-fold, P = 0.002), stefin A1 (7.3-fold; P < 0.001) and slc25A5 (1.5-fold; P = 0.05) using qRT-PCR on a second cohort of animals (n=8). Parallel LC/MS/MS analyses on these same samples verified protein-level increases of 1.3-fold (slc25a5; P < 0.05), 29,000-fold (stefinA1; P < 0.01), 322-fold (KLK6; P < 0.0001) between KC-Tie2 and control mice. To underscore the utility and translatability of our combined approach, we analyzed gene and protein expression levels in psoriasis patient skin and primary keratinocytes vs. healthy controls. Increases in gene expression for slc25a5 (1.8-fold), cystatin A (3.0-fold), KLK6 (5.8-fold) and serpinB1 (76-fold; all P < 0.05) were observed between healthy controls and involved lesional psoriasis skin and primary psoriasis keratinocytes. Moreover slc25a5, cystatin A, KLK6 and serpinB1 protein were all increased in lesional psoriasis skin compared to normal skin. These results highlight the usefulness of preclinical disease models using readily-available mouse skin and demonstrate the utility of proteomic approaches for identifying novel peptides/proteins that are differentially regulated in psoriasis that could serve as sources of auto-antigens or provide novel therapeutic targets for the development of new anti-psoriatic treatments.

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed on biopsies of affected and unaffected psoriatic skin and normal skin from seven Japanese patients to obtain insights into the pathways that control this disease. U95A Affymetrix DNA chips that contain oligonucleotide arrays of approximately 12,000 well-characterized human genes were used in the study. The statistical analysis of the Affymetrix data, based on the ranking of the Student-test statistic, revealed a complex regulation of molecular stress and immune gene responses. The majority of the 266 induced-genes in affected and unaffected psoriatic skin were involved with interferon mediation, immunity, cell-adhesion, cytoskeleton restructuring, protein trafficking and degradation, RNA regulation and degradation, signaling transduction, apoptosis and atypical epidermal cellular proliferation and differentiation. The disturbances in the normal protein degradation equilibrium of skin were reflected by the significant increase in the gene expression of various protease inhibitors and proteinases including the induced components of the ATP/ubiquitin-dependent non-lysosomal proteolytic pathway that is involved with peptide processing and presentation to T-cells. Some of the upregulated genes, such as TGM1, IVL, CSTA, FABP5 and SPRR, are well known psoriatic markers involved in atypical epidermal cellular organization and differentiation. In the comparison between the affected and unaffected psoriatic skin, the transcription factor JUNB was found at the top of the statistical rankings for the 51 significantly upregulated genes in affected skin, suggesting that it has an important but as yet undefined role in psoriasis. Our gene expression data and analysis suggest that psoriasis is a chronic IFN and T-cell-mediated immune disease of the skin where the imbalance in epidermal cellular structure, growth and differentiation arises from the molecular antiviral stress signals initiating inappropriate immune responses. Experiment Overall Design: Analysis of the expression profile of skin samples for each of three conditions (states) of psoriasis activity Experiment Overall Design: 3 samples were from psoriasis negative individuals (biological replicates) Experiment Overall Design: 4 samples were from psorasis free skin areas of psoriasis active individuals (biological replicates) Experiment Overall Design: 4 samples were from psorasis active skin areas of psoriasis active individuals (biological replicates)

Project description:Psoriasis is a common, immune-mediated, genetic disorder of the skin associated with arthritis in approximately 30% of cases. Previously, we localized PSORS2 (psoriasis susceptibility locus 2) to chromosome 17q25.3-qter following a genome-wide linkage scan in a family of European origin with multiple cases of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Linkage to PSORS2 was also observed in a multiply affected psoriasis family from Taiwan. With genomic capture and DNA sequencing, we identified unique gain-of-function mutations in caspase recruitment domain family, member 14 (CARD14) that segregated with psoriasis. The mutations, c.349G>A (p.Gly117Ser) and c.349+5G>A respectively, altered splicing between exons 3 and 4 of CARD14. A de novo mutation in CARD14, c.413A>C [p.Glu138Ala], was detected in a child with sporadic, early-onset, generalized pustular psoriasis. CARD14 activates nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), and the p.Gly117Ser and p.Glu138Ala substitutions were shown to lead to enhanced NF-kB activation and upregulation of a subset of psoriasis-associated genes in keratinocytes compared to wildtype CARD14. These included chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 20 (CCL20) and interleukin 8 (IL8). CARD14 is localized mainly in the basal and suprabasal layers of healthy skin epidermis, while in lesional psoriatic skin it is reduced in the basal layer and more diffusely upregulated in the suprabasal layers of the lesional epidermis. We propose that, following a triggering event that can include epidermal injury, rare gain-of-function mutations in CARD14 initiate a process that includes inflammatory cell recruitment by keratinocytes. This perpetuates a vicious cycle of epidermal inflammation and regeneration that is the hallmark of psoriasis. No replicates are included. Three sample sets. [1] Skin biopsies had RNA extracted for expression within target tissue. [2] HEK cells were transfected with different constructs (including wildtype) of CARD14 to determine the mutational effect in keratinocytes. [3] Keratinocytes derived from psoriasis patients with CARD14 mutations were cultured and compared with and without stimulation with TNFalpha.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory immune-mediated disorder affecting the skin and other organs including joints. Over 1,300 transcripts are altered in psoriatic involved skin compared to normal skin. Global epigenetic profiles of psoriatic skin have not been described. Here we describe the first genome-wide study of altered CpG methylation in psoriatic skin. We determined the methylation levels at 27,578 CpG sites in skin samples from individuals with psoriasis (12 involved, 8 uninvolved) and 10 unaffected individuals. CpG methylation of involved skin differed from normal skin at 1,108 sites. Twelve mapped to the epidermal differentiation complex, upstream or within genes that are highly up-regulated in psoriasis. Hierarchical clustering of 50 of the top differentially methylated (DM) sites separated psoriatic from normal skin samples. CpG sites where methylation was correlated with gene expression are reported. Sites with inverse correlations between methylation and nearby gene expression include those of KYNU, OAS2, S100A12, and SERPINB3, whose strong transcriptional up-regulation are important discriminators of psoriasis. We observed intrinsic epigenetic differences in uninvolved skin. Pyrosequencing of bisulfite-treated DNA from skin biopsies at three DM loci confirmed earlier findings and revealed a reversion of methylation levels towards the non-psoriatic state after one month of anti-TNF-a therapy. Control n=8 (NN), psoriasis involved n = 19 (PP), psoriasis uninvolved n=8 (PN). Hybridized to Illumina Human 27k methylation array. Paired samples are as follows: PN1 and PP1 PN2 and PP2 PN3 and PP3 PN4 and PP4 PN5 and PP5 PN6 and PP6 PN7 and PP7 PN8 and PP8

Project description:Ceramide is an important lipid in skin barrier function. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, and the skin barrier function has disturbed. Furthermore, the balance of each ceramide species in stratum corneum is disrupted in psoriatic skin. However, it involved remains unclear what detailed mechanism ceramide species changed in psoriatic skin lesion. We comprehensively investigated lipid metabolism including ceramide in skin of psoriasis patients by DNA microarray analysis. The expression level of PNPLA1 gene involved in acylceramide synthesis which is epidermis-specific ceramide species essential for skin barrier function was decreased in psoriatic skin. In contrast, the expression level of lipid metabolism-related enzymes gene including ceramide were increased in psoriatic skin. Consequently, the acylceramide synthesis was decreased in skin of psoriasis patients, suggesting that increased biosynthesis of other sphingolipids to supplement the function of acylceramide may cause the pathology of psoriasis.

Project description:Objective: Thrombin is the key serine protease of the coagulation cascade and mediates cellular responses by activation of protease-activated receptors (PARs). The predominant thrombin receptor is PAR1 and in endothelial cells (ECs) thrombin dynamically regulates a plethora of phosphorylation events. However, it has remained unclear if thrombin signaling is exclusively mediated through PAR1. Furthermore, mechanistic insight into activation and inhibition of PAR1-mediated EC signaling is lacking. In addition, signaling networks of biased PAR1 activation after differential cleavage of the PAR1 N-terminus have remained an unresolved issue.Approach and Results: Here, we used a quantitative phosphoproteomics approach to show that ‘classical’ and ‘peptide’ activation of PAR1 induce highly similar signaling, that low thrombin concentrations initiate only limited phosphoregulation, and that the PAR1 inhibitors vorapaxar and parmodulin-2 demonstrate distinct antagonistic properties. Subsequent analysis of the thrombin-regulated phosphosites in presence of PAR1 inhibitors revealed that biased activation of PAR1 is not solely linked to a specific G-protein downstream of PAR1. In addition, we showed that only the canonical thrombin PAR1 tethered ligand induces extensive early phosphoregulation in ECs.Conclusions: Our study provides detailed insight in the signaling mechanisms downstream of PAR1. Our data demonstrates that thrombin-induced EC phosphoregulation is mediated exclusively through PAR1, that thrombin and thrombin-TL peptide induce similar phosphoregulation and that only canonical PAR1 cleavage by thrombin generates a tethered ligand that potently induces early signaling. Furthermore, platelet PAR1 inhibitors directly affect EC signaling, indicating it will be a challenge to design a PAR1 antagonist that will target only those pathways responsible for tissue pathology.
