Project description:Progenitor cells at the basal layer of skin epidermis play an essential role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and enhancing wound repair in skin. The proliferation, differentiation, and cell death of epidermal progenitor cells have to be delicately regulated, as deregulation of this process can lead to many skin diseases, including skin cancers. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in skin homeostasis remain poorly defined. In this study, with quantitative proteomics approach, we identified an important interaction between KDF1 (Keratinocyte Differentiation Factor 1) and IKKα (IκB kinase α) in differentiating skin keratinocytes. Ablation of either KDF1 or IKKα in mice leads to similar but striking abnormalities in skin development, particularly in skin epidermal differentiation. With biochemical and mouse genetics approach, we further demonstrate that the interaction of IKKα and KDF1 is essential for epidermal differentiation. To probe deeper into the mechanisms, we find that KDF1 associates with a deubiquitinating protease, USP7 (Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 7), and KDF1 can regulate skin differentiation through deubiquitination and stabilization of IKKα. Taken together, our study unravels an important molecular mechanism underlying skin tissue homeostasis and epidermal differentiation.

Project description:The development of complex stratified epithelial barriers in mammals is initiated from single-layered epithelia. How stratification is initiated and fueled are still open questions. Previous studies on skin epidermal stratification suggested a central role for perpendicular/asymmetric cell division orientation of the basal keratinocyte progenitors. Here, we use centrosomes, that organize the mitotic spindle, to test whether cell division orientation and stratification are linked. Genetically ablating centrosomes from the developing epidermis leads to the activation of the p53-, 53BP1- and USP28-dependent mitotic surveillance pathway causing a thinner epidermis and hair follicle arrest. The centrosome/p53-double mutant keratinocyte progenitors significantly alter their division orientation in the later stages without majorly affecting epidermal differentiation. Together with time-lapse imaging and tissue growth dynamics measurements, the data suggest that the first and major phase of epidermal development is boosted by high proliferation rates in both basal and suprabasally-committed keratinocytes as well as cell delamination, whereas the second phase maybe uncoupled from the division orientation of the basal progenitors. The data provide insights for tissue homeostasis and hyperproliferative diseases that may recapitulate developmental programs.

Project description:<p>Transcription factor p63 is a key regulator of epidermal keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in the p63 DNA-binding domain are associated with Ectrodactyly Ectodermal Dysplasia Cleft Lip/Palate (EEC) syndrome. Underlying molecular mechanism of these mutations however remain unclear. Here we characterized the transcriptome and epigenome of p63 mutant keratinocytes derived from EEC patients. The transcriptome of p63 mutant keratinocytes deviated from the normal epidermal cell identity. Epigenomic analyses showed an altered enhancer landscape in p63 mutant keratinocytes contributed by loss of p63-bound active enhancers and by unexpected gain of enhancers. The gained enhancers were frequently bound by deregulated transcription factors such as RUNX1. Reversing RUNX1 overexpression partially rescued deregulated gene expression and the altered enhancer landscape. Our findings identify an unreported disease mechanism whereby mutant p63 rewires the enhancer landscape and affects epidermal cell identity, consolidating the pivotal role of p63 in controlling the enhancer landscape of epidermal keratinocytes.</p>

Project description:The regulatory circuits that coordinate epidermal differentiation during development are still not fully understood. Here we report that the transcriptional regulator ID1 is enriched in basal epidermal progenitor cells and find ID1 expression to be diminished upon differentiation. In utero silencing of Id1 impairs progenitor cell proliferation, leads to precocious delamination of targeted progenitor cells and enables differentiated keratinocytes to retain progenitor markers and characteristics. Transcriptional profiling suggests ID1 acts by mediating adhesion to the basement membrane while inhibiting spinous layer differentiation. Co-immunoprecipitation reveals ID1 binding to transcriptional regulators of the class I bHLH family. We localize bHLH Tcf3, Tcf4 and Tcf12 to epidermal progenitor cells during epidermal stratification and established TCF3 as a downstream effector of ID1-mediated epidermal proliferation. Finally, we identify crosstalk between CEBPA, a known mediator of epidermal differentiation, and Id1 and demonstrate that CEBPA antagonizes BMP-induced activation of Id1. Our work establishes ID1 as a key coordinator of epidermal development, acting to balance progenitor proliferation with differentiation and unveils how functional crosstalk between CEBPA and Id1 orchestrates epidermal lineage progression.

Project description:In adult tissue, stem and progenitor cells must tightly regulate the balance between proliferation and differentiation to sustain homeostasis. It is assumed that the rate-limiting step during the induction of somatic tissue differentiation is the recruitment of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) to promoters. Here we show that ~30% of induced differentiation genes already contain stalled Pol II at the promoters in epidermal stem and progenitor cells which is then released into productive transcription elongation upon differentiation. Central to this process is the histone chaperone, SPT6 which is necessary for the elongation of these differentiation genes. Upon SPT6 depletion there is a loss of human skin differentiation and stratification. Unexpectedly, loss of SPT6 also caused the spontaneous transdifferentiation of epidermal cells into an intestinal phenotype due to the stalled transcription of the master regulator of epidermal fate P63. Our findings suggest that control of transcription elongation through SPT6 plays a prominent role in adult somatic tissue differentiation and the inhibition of alternative cell fate choices.

Project description:Cell fates are defined by specific transcriptional program. Previously, we developed a unique stem cell regeneration mouse model, in which transcriptional program for ectoderm organs such as tooth and skin is switched. Genomic deletion of one subunit of Mediator complex, Med1, resulted in defective enamel regeneration, in which dental stem cells were inhibited from undergoing transcriptional program for dental fate. In stead, they exerted skin program for both hair and epidermis, and post-natally regenerate ectopic hairs in the incisors. Here, we report that Med1 also modulates epidermal and hair cell fates in the skin. Med1 ablation further enhanced epidermal and sebocyte fates, and accelerated injury induced epidermal regeneration. However, it blunted hair fate resulting in hair loss in the skin. Ablation of Med1 increased the number of isthmus stem cells and epidermal stem cells, which regenerate epidermis during cutaneous wound healing process. Med1 deficiency also constitutively activated these stem cells and increased their proliferation. Microarray profiling indicated that Med1 deletion causes activation of β-catenin and suppression of TGFβ signaling. Med1 deficiency induced the expression of β-catenin target genes to control cell fate and proliferation. It also decreased TGFβ expression in interfollicular epidermis. Med1 deficiency increased the proliferation and migration of epidermal cells, and induced nuclear translocation of β-catenin, and decreased TGFβ1 expression in vitro. Our finding together with previous observations demonstrated that Med1 governs ectoderm cell fate in both tooth and skin. Med1 ablation blunts hair fate but induces epidermal and sebocyte cell fates to accelerated injury induced epidermal regeneration in the skin. Accelerated regeneration is derived from constitutive activation of epidermal stem cells accompanied with increased proliferation and migration of their progeny by balancing of β-catenin induced growth promoting and TGFβ mediated growth inhibitory activities in the skin.
