Project description:Environmental factors that enhance regeneration are largely unknown. We hypothesized that skin bacteria modulate regeneration. Here, we assessed low, medium, and high levels of bacterial burden in Wound Induced Hair follicle Neogenesis (WIHN), a rare adult organogenesis model. WIHN levels and stem cell markers indeed correlated with bacterial counts, being lowest in germ free (GF), intermediate in conventional specific pathogen free (SPF), and highest even in mice infected with pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus. We identified IL-1β and keratinocyte-dependent IL-1R-MyD88 signaling as necessary and sufficient for bacteria to promote regeneration. Finally, in a small clinical trial, we found that a topical broad-spectrum antibiotic slowed skin wound healing. These results counter conventional notions that infection inhibits regeneration and the need for full sterility of small wounds.

Project description:Mammalian injury responses are characterized by fibrosis and scarring rather than the functional regeneration observed in other phyla. Limited regenerative capacity in mammals could reflect a loss of pro-regeneration programs or active suppression by genes functioning akin to tumor suppressors. To uncover programs governing regeneration in mammals, we investigated Wound Induced Hair Neogenesis (WIHN), a rare example of regeneration in adult mammals1,2. Through comprehensive screening of transcripts associated with both WIHN and human facial rejuvenation after laser treatment, we found the endoribonuclease RNase L to be a powerful suppressor of regeneration. Rnasel-/- mice exhibit remarkable regenerative capacity and accelerated wound healing following injury through the production of IL-36α. Consistent with the known role of RNase L to stimulate caspase-1 signaling, we find that pharmacologic inhibition of caspases promotes regeneration in an IL-36-dependent manner. These responses are not limited to skin but occur following intestinal injury as well, suggesting that suppression of regeneration is a general characteristic of mammalian wound healing. Taken together, this work suggests a therapeutic strategy to uncover latent regenerative capacity and promote functional response to injury. Biopsies of re-epithelialized tissue were recovered from wild-type or Rnasel KO mice approximately 10 days after wounding. Total RNA was extracted and sent for microarray analysis.

Project description:Human and murine skin wounding commonly result in fibrotic scarring but the murine wounding model Wound Induced Hair Neogenesis (WIHN) can frequently result in a regenerative repair response. Here we show in single cell RNA-seq comparisons of semi-regenerative and fibrotic WIHN wounds, increased expression of phagocytic/lysosomal genes in macrophages associated with predominance of fibrotic myofibroblasts in fibrotic wounds. Investigation revealed that macrophages in the late wound drive fibrosis by phagocytizing dermal Wnt inhibitor SFRP4 to establish persistent Wnt activity. In accordance, phagocytosis abrogation resulted in transient Wnt activity and a more regenerative healing. Phagocytosis of SFRP4 was integrin-mediated and dependent on the interaction of SFRP4 with the EDA splice variant of fibronectin. In the human skin condition Hidradenitis suppurativa, phagocytosis of SFRP4 by macrophages correlated with fibrotic wound repair. These results reveal that macrophages can modulate a key signaling pathway via phagocytosis to alter the skin wound healing fate.

Project description:In a rare example akin to organogenesis in adult mammals, large wounds in mice lead to de novo morphogenesis of hair follicles. It is still not fully clear what controls this process, known as Wound Induced Hair Neogenesis (WIHN). In other tissues, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is an important effector of regeneration and has been shown to stimulate the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway, which in turn is known to control WIHN. Previously, our group has demonstrated that noncoding dsRNA released during wounding is both necessary and sufficient to stimulate WIHN through TLR3. Here, we hypothesize that dsRNA similarly induces the beta-catenin pathway through PGE2. We find that WIHN levels correlate closely to Wnt7b production in vivo, and that dsRNA potently induces Wnt7b in a manner that requires prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2). The Ptgs2 inhibitor celecoxib reduces dsRNA-induced WIHN and Wnt7b, and exogenous PGE2 can rescue WIHN and Wnt7b. These results highlight noncoding dsRNA as a novel upstream coordinator of prostaglandin and Wnt levels in regeneration. We used microarrays to identify the human keratinocyte genes most upregulated or downregulated by poly(I:C)

Project description:We profiled the expression of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) in mice exposed to gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria using Illumina small RNA deep sequencing. Recombinant-specific gram-negative pathogen Escherichia coli (Xen14) and gram-positive pathogen Staphylococcus aureus (Xen29) were used to induce bacterial infection in mice at a concentration of 1 × 108 bacteria/100 μL of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Small RNA libraries generated from the serum of mice after exposure to PBS, Xen14, Xen29, and Xen14+Xen29 via the routes of subcutaneous injection (I), cut wound (C), or under grafted skin (S) were analyzed using an Illumina HiSeq2000 Sequencer. Following exposure to gram-negative bacteria alone, no differentially expressed miRNA was found in the injection, cut, or skin graft models. Exposure to mixed bacteria induced a similar expression pattern of the circulating miRNAs to that induced by gram-positive bacterial infection. Upon gram-positive bacterial infection, 9 miRNAs (mir-193b-3p, mir-133a-1-3p, mir-133a-2-3p, mir-133a-1-5p, mir-133b-3p, mir-434-3p, mir-127-3p, mir-676-3p, mir-215-5p) showed upregulation greater than 4-fold with a p-value < 0.01. Among them, mir-193b-3p, mir-133a-1-3p, and mir-133a-2-3p presented the most common miRNA targets expressed in the mice exposed to gram-positive bacterial infection. Male C57BL/6 mice (age, 10–12 weeks; weight, 30–35 g) were purchased from BioLasco (Yi-Lan, Taiwan). The mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of an anesthetic cocktail consisting of 0.1 mg/g ketamine and 0.01 mg/g xylazine. The anesthetized mice were restrained in a supine position on a heated pad to maintain body temperature at 37°C. Recombinant-specific gram-negative pathogen Escherichia coli (Xen14) and gram-positive pathogen Staphylococcus aureus (Xen29) purchased from Caliper (Caliper, USA) were used to induce bacterial infection in the mice at a concentration of 1 × 108 bacteria/100 μL of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). To create mixed gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial infection, 1 × 108 Xen14 bacteria and 1 × 108 Xen29 bacteria/100 μL of PBS were used for wound contamination. Three animal models were used to create bacterial infection routes: subcutaneous injection (hereafter referred to as (I)), cut wound (hereafter referred to as (C)), and skin grafting (hereafter referred to as (S)). In the (I) model, E. coli and/or S. aureus suspensions were injected subcutaneously into the backs of the mice using an Fr. 25 needle. In the (C) model, a 1 cm incision wound was created in the midline of the back, smeared with E. coli and/or S. aureus suspension, and the wound was closed directly with a 4-0 nylon suture. In the (S) model, a 1×1 cm rectangular full- thickness skin graft was lifted from the backs of the mice, E. coli and/or S. aureus suspensions were spread over the wound bed, and the skin graft was reattached and closed with a 4-0 nylon suture. An additional group of animals in each of these three models was inoculated with PBS to serve as a negative control. Small RNA libraries generated from the serum of mice after exposure to PBS, Xen14, Xen29, and Xen14+Xen29 via the routes of subcutaneous injection (I), cut wound (C), or under grafted skin (S) were analyzed using an Illumina HiSeq2000 Sequencer.

Project description:Mice were wounded and skin samples of the scar collected on the day of wound closure. We compared Mixed mice (B6/FVB/SJL), a strain of high regeneration, versus C57bl mice, a strain of low regeneration. Whole skin biopsies of wound scars were submitted for Affymetrix Exon arrays. 4 mice each of 2 distinct strains of differing regeneration levels were collected.

Project description:While considerable progress has been made towards understanding the complex processes and pathways that regulate human wound healing, regenerative medicine has been unable to develop therapies that coax the natural wound environment to heal scar-free. The inability to induce perfect skin regeneration stems partly from our limited understanding of how scar-free healing occurs in a natural setting. Here we have investigated the wound repair process in adult axolotls and demonstrate that they are capable of perfectly repairing full thickness excisional wounds made on the flank. In the context of mammalian wound repair, our findings reveal a substantial reduction in hemostasis, reduced neutrophil infiltration and a relatively long delay in production of new extracellular matrix (ECM) during scar-free healing. Additionally, we test the hypothesis that metamorphosis leads to scarring and instead show that terrestrial axolotls also heal scar-free, albeit at a slower rate. Analysis of newly forming dermal ECM suggests that low levels of fibronectin and high levels of tenascin-C promote regeneration in lieu of scarring. Lastly, a genetic analysis during wound healing comparing epidermis between aquatic and terrestrial axolotls suggests that matrix metalloproteinases may regulate the fibrotic response. Our findings outline a blueprint to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms coordinating scar-free healing that will be useful towards elucidating new regenerative therapies targeting fibrosis and wound repair. We used microarray analysis to determine the gene expression changes that take place during scar free wound healing in aquatic and terrestrial axolotl salamanders. Epidermal tissue was harvested using a 4mm biopsy punch. Two wounds were made along the flank and posterior to the forelimbs. Harvested epidermis was pooled for each animal. Four biological replicates were collected from uninjured epidermis (D0) and at 1, 3, and 7 days post injury.

Project description:Tissue regeneration is a process that recapitulates the molecular and mechanical aspects of development and evolution. We use the wound-induced hair neogenesis (WIHN) model to investigate the mechanical and molecular responses of the laboratory (Mus) and African spiny (Acomys) mice. Laboratory and spiny mice showed an opposite trend of spatiotemporal morphogenetic field for WIHN during wound healing, and wound stiffness gradient across the whole wound bed predicated pattern of hair formation. Using bulk and single-cell RNA-seq analysis and K14-Cre-Twist1 transgenic mice, we identified the central role of the Twist1 pathway as the mediator of epidermal-dermal interaction and the emergence of periodic hair primordia. Lastly, we generated a Turing model with an underlying measure of stiffness to support a two-scale tissue mechanic model to explain the setup of a morphogenetic field from a wound bed (mm scale) or periodically arranged hair primordia from a morphogenetic field (μm scale). Delineating the common and distinct chemo-mechanical events during regenerative wound healing between laboratory and African spiny mice reveal its evo-devo advantages, which provide new perspectives for regenerative medicine.
