Project description:Investigation of gene expression in cultured human skin epithelial keratinocytes (HaCaT) following non-thermal plasma treatment for 60 s, compared to untreated control. Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has recently gained attention in the field of biomedical and clinical applications. In the area of plasma medicine research one promising approach is to promote wound healing by stimulation of cells involved. To understand basic molecular and cellular mechanisms triggered by plasma treatment we investigated biological effects of an argon plasma jet (kinpen) on human epithelial skin cells. Consequently, whole-genome microarrays were used to analyze this interaction in detail and identified a statistically significant modification of 3,274 genes including 1,828 up- and 1,446 down-regulated genes. Particularly, plasma-treated cells are characterized by differential expression of a considerable number of genes involved in the response to stress. In this regard, we found a plasma-dependent regulation of oxidative stress answer and increased expression of enzymes of the antioxidative defense system (e.g. 91 oxidoreductases). Our results demonstrate that plasma induces cell reactions of stress-sensing but also of proliferative nature. Consistent with gene expression changes as well as Ingenuity Pathway Analysis prediction, we propose that stimulating doses of plasma may protect epithelial skin cells in wound healing by promoting proliferation and differentiation. In conclusion, gene expression profiling may become an important tool in identifying plasma-related changes of gene expression. Our results underline the enormous clinical potential of plasma as a biomedical tool for stimulation of epithelial skin cells We investigated biological effects of an argon plasma jet on HaCaTs. Microarray were used to analyzed this interaction in detail. The transcripts analyzed in this study are further described in Schmidt et al.

Project description:Background: While atopic dermatitis (AD) often starts in early childhood, detailed tissue profiling of early-onset AD in children is lacking, hindering therapeutic development for this patient population with a particularly high unmet need of better treatments. Objective: We sought to globally profile the skin of infants with AD compared to adults with AD and healthy controls. Methods: We performed microarray, RT-PCR and fluorescence microscopy studies in infants and young children (<5yo) with early-onset AD (<6mo) compared to age-matched controls and adults with longstanding AD. Results: Transcriptomic analyses revealed profound differences between early-onset pediatric vs. longstanding adult AD, not only in lesional but also non-lesional tissues. While both patient populations harbored Th2-centered inflammation, pediatric AD also showed significant Th17-skewing, but lacked the Th1 upregulation that characterizes adult AD. Defects in lipid barrier (e.g. ELOVL3, DGAT2) and tight junction regulation (e.g. Claudins 8 and 23) were evident in both groups but, unlike adult AD which showed the classic downregulation of epidermal differentiation and cornification products, pediatric AD exhibited relatively normal expression of these genes. Some lipid-associated mediators (such as FAR2 and FA2H) even showed preferential downregulation in pediatric AD, and lipid barrier genes (FA2H, DGAT2) showed inverse correlations with transepidermal water loss/TEWL, a functional measure of the epidermal barrier. Conclusions: Children and adult AD skin samples share lipid metabolism and tight junction alterations, but epidermal differentiation complex defects are only present in adult AD, potentially resulting from chronic immune aberration that is not yet present in early-onset disease.

Project description:Treatment of tumor progression and metastasis continues to be of major importance in the field of cancer. It is reported that cancer cells often show a pronounced sensitivity towards oxidative stress. Cold plasma offers the ability to deliver a delicate mix of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species directly into cells or tissues. Using a well-described argon plasma jet, we investigated the biological responses of plasma on tumor cell death, cell migration, and expression of adhesion-associated genes as well as cytoskeletal modifications. Using the human melanoma cancer cell line SK-Mel-147 we were able to show that plasma induced only little apoptosis but had profound effects on tumor cell motility. Plasma treatment of cells was associated with an inhibition of migration and disorganization of the actin cytoskeleton which were mediated through multiple signaling pathways, as transcriptome-wide gene analysis suggested. Specifically, changes in cell adhesion were regulated by differential expression of cell junction and cell-matrix proteins. These results provide evidence that plasma may be able to disturb the migration and adhesion in metastatic SK-Mel-147 cells. Microarrays were used to analyze and investigate the biological effects of cold plasma on human melanoma cell line SK-Mel-147. Using an argon plasma jet kinpen, regulated transcripts were analyzed and further described in Schmidt et al.

Project description:The breakdown of epidermal barrier and consequent loss of skin hydration is a feature of skin aging and eczematous dermatitis. Few treatments, however, resolve these underlying processes to provide full symptomatic relief. In this study, we generated a novel compound, isosorbide di-(linoleate/oleate) (IDL), by esterifying isosorbide with sunflower fatty acids. Topical effects of IDL in skin were compared to those of ethyl linoleate/oleate (EL), which has previously been shown to improve skin barrier function. Both IDL and EL down-regulated inflammatory gene expression, but IDL more effectively up-regulated the expression of genes associated with keratinocyte differentiation (e.g., KRT1, GRHL2, SPRR4). Consistent with this, IDL increased abundance of epidermal barrier proteins (filaggrin and involucrin) and prevented cytokine-mediated stratum corneum degradation. IDL also down-regulated expression of “unhealthy skin signature” genes linked to loss of epidermal homeostasis and uniquely repressed an interferon-inducible co-expression module activated in multiple skin diseases including psoriasis. In a double-blind placebo-controlled trial enrolling females with dry skin, 2% IDL lotion applied over 2 weeks significantly improved skin hydration and decreased transepidermal water loss (NCT04253704). These results demonstrate mechanisms by which IDL improves skin hydration and epidermal barrier function, supporting IDL as an effective intervention for treatment of xerotic pruritic skin.

Project description:Skin constitutes the outer permeability barrier that protects the body from dehydration and a myriad of external assaults. Epidermal keratinocytes act as the first line of innate immune defense, and barrier defects underlie common inflammatory skin diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms that maintain barrier integrity when skin is under challenge to regulate the interplay between epidermal and immune cells are not fully understood. Here we report upregulated expression of transcriptional repressorencoding Ovol1 in epidermal cells of inflamed skin, and its functional importance in maintaining barrier integrity of physically or chemically challenged skin. Following stimulation with imiquimod, Ovol1-deficient mice exhibit significantly aggravated epidermal hyperplasia and psoriasis-like skin inflammation featuring persistent neutrophil accumulation. Using bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing, we characterize molecular changes in epidermal, fibroblasts, and immune cells that reflect altered epidermal proliferation and differentiation and/or significantly enhanced inflammatory responses as consequences of Ovol1 deletion. We identify both proliferation/differentiation-regulating and neutrophil-attracting chemokine genes as candidate direct targets of Ovol1. Finally, we provide evidence for altered IL-1a signaling in the microenvironment of Ovol1- deficient inflamed skin that functionally contributes to neutrophil accumulation and epidermal hyperplasia. Collectively, our study demonstrates a protective role for an epidermally expressed, disease-linked transcription factor in coordinating robust barrier maintenance with suppression of skin inflammation.
