Comprehensive analysis of lipid metabolism-related enzymes including ceramide in skin of psoriasis patients

ABSTRACT: 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.

The Evolutionary Context of an Immune-Mediated Skin response

Project description:The skin is vital for protecting the body and perceiving external stimuli in the environment. Ability to adapt between environments is in part based on skin plasticity, indicating evolved homeostasis between skin and environment. This homeostasis reflects the greater relationship between the body and the environment, and disruptions in this balance may lead to accumulation of susceptibility factors for autoimmune disorders like psoriasis. We collected skin tissue biopsies from individuals with psoriasis and compared gene expression in psoriatic plaques to non-plaque psoriatic skin. We then compared these data with non-psoriatic skin transcriptome data from multiple primate species. We found 67 genes showing human-specific skin expression that are also differentially regulated in psoriatic skin; these genes are significantly enriched for skin barrier function, immunity, and neuronal development. We identified 6 gene clusters with differential expression in the context of human evolution and psoriasis, suggesting underlying regulatory mechanisms in these loci. Human and psoriasis-specific enrichment of neuroimmune genes shows the importance of the ongoing evolved homeostatic relationship between skin and external environment. These results have implications for both evolutionary medicine and public health, using transcriptomic data to acknowledge the importance of an individual's surroundings on their overall health.

Distinct molecular signatures of mild extrinsic and intrinsic atopic dermatitis

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease with underlying defects in epidermal function and immune responses. The goal of this study was to investigate differences in gene expression in lesional skin from patients with mild extrinsic or intrinsic AD compared to skin from healthy controls and from lesional psoriasis skin. The aim was to identify differentially expressed genes involved in skin barrier formation and inflammation, and to compare our results with those reported for patients with moderate and severe AD. A total of 31 samples were analyzed: 8 healthy skin, 9 psoriatic plaques, 4 extrinsic AD lesional skin, 10 intrinsic AD lesional skin.

Transcription profiling of mouse skins of embryos lacking Grainyhead-like epithelial transactivator (Get-1)

Project description:Defective permeability barrier is an important feature of many skin diseases and causes mortality in premature infants. To investigate the control of barrier formation, we characterized the epidermally expressed Grainyhead-like epithelial transactivator (Get-1)/Grhl3, a conserved mammalian homologue of Grainyhead, which plays important roles in cuticle development in Drosophila. Get-1 interacts with the LIM-only protein LMO4, which is co-expressed in the developing mammalian epidermis. The epidermis of Get-1(-/-) mice showed a severe barrier function defect associated with impaired differentiation of the epidermis, including defects of the stratum corneum, extracellular lipid composition and cell adhesion in the granular layer. The Get-1 mutation affects multiple genes linked to terminal differentiation and barrier function, including most genes of the epidermal differentiation complex. Get-1 therefore directly or indirectly regulates a broad array of epidermal differentiation genes encoding structural proteins, lipid metabolizing enzymes and cell adhesion molecules. Although deletion of the LMO4 gene had no overt consequences for epidermal development, the epidermal terminal differentiation defect in mice deleted for both Get-1 and LMO4 is much more severe than in Get-1(-/-) mice with striking impairment of stratum corneum formation. These findings indicate that the Get-1 and LMO4 genes interact functionally to regulate epidermal terminal differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: The same region of the mouse back skin was excised from three Get1 +/+ and three Get1 â/â mice at e18.5.

Group IVE Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 Limits Psoriatic Inflammation by Mobilizing the Anti-inflammatory Lipid N-Acylethanolamine

Project description:Psoriasis is an inflammatory disorder characterized by keratinocyte hyper-proliferation and Th17-type immune responses. However, the roles of bioactive lipids and the regulation of their biosynthesis in this chronic skin disease are not fully understood. Herein, we show that group IVE cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2epsilon/PLA2G4E) plays a counterregulatory role against psoriatic inflammation by producing the non-canonical anti-inflammatory lipid N-acylethanolamine (NAE). Lipidomics analysis of mouse skin revealed that NAE species and their precursors (N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine and glycerophospho-N-acylethanolamine) were robustly increased in parallel with the ongoing process of imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis, accompanied by a marked upregulation of cPLA2epsilon in epidermal keratinocytes. Genetic deletion of cPLA2epsilon/Pla2g4e exacerbated IMQ-induced ear swelling and psoriatic marker expression, with a dramatic reduction of NAE-related lipids in IMQ-treated, and even normal, skin. Stimulation of cultured human keratinocytes with psoriatic cytokines concomitantly increased PLA2G4E expression and NAE production, and supplementation with NAEs significantly attenuated the cytokine-induced upregulation of the psoriatic marker S100A9. Increased expression of cPLA2epsilon was also evident in the epidermis of psoriatic patients. These findings reveal for the first time the in vivo role of cPLA2epsilon, which is highly induced in the keratinocytes of the psoriatic skin, promotes the biosynthesis of NAE-related lipids, and contributes to limiting psoriatic inflammation.

Global methylation analysis of psoriatic (involved and uninvolved) and control skin

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

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV promotes imiquimod-induced psoriatic inflammation via macrophages and keratinocytes in mice

Project description:CaMK4 has an important function in autoimmune diseases, and the contribution of CaMK4 in psoriasis remains obscure. Here, we show that CaMK4 expression is significantly increased in psoriatic lesional skin from psoriasis patients compared to healthy human skin as well as inflamed skin from an imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse model of psoriasis compared to healthy mouse skin. Camk4-deficient (Camk4−/−) mice treated with IMQ exhibit reduced severity of psoriasis compared to wild-type (WT) mice. There are more macrophages and fewer IL-17A+γδ TCR+ cells in the skin of IMQ-treated Camk4−/− mice compared to IMQ-treated WT mice. CaMK4 inhibits IL-10 production by macrophages, thus allowing excessive psoriatic inflammation. Deletion of Camk4 in macrophages alleviates IMQ-induced psoriatic inflammation in mice. In keratinocytes, CaMK4 inhibits apoptosis as well as promotes cell proliferation and the expression of pro-inflammatory genes such as S100A8 and CAMP. Taken together, these data indicate that CaMK4 regulates IMQ-induced psoriasis by sustaining inflammation and provides a potential target for psoriasis treatment.

Effect of IQGAP3 silencing on HaCaT keratinocytes under normal conditions or inflammatory cytokine stimulation

Project description:Scaffold protein IQGAP3 mediates assembly of multiprotein complexes, orchestrating intracellular signaling pathways. Earlier we have found it to be overexpressed in lesional psoriatic skin. IQGAP3 is involved in cell proliferation and chemokine signaling that are key processes in psoriasis, so we decided to investigate the molecular basis of its role in psoriatic phenotype of keratinocytes. Transcriptome profiling of HaCaT keratinocytes allowed us to identify a wide range of psoriasis-associated pathways to be altered in IQGAP3-knockdown cells. NFkB signaling, EGFR signaling, p38/MAPK and ERK1/ERK2 activation, lipid metabolism and cytokine production as well as the response to the inflammatory cytokine stimulation were altered in the knockdown cells. Real-time analysis of cell growth revealed the alterations of proliferation and wound healing. The balance between proliferation and apoptosis of skin cells was altered, as well as the skin barrier functions and the production of IL-6 and IFNg. However, the diversity of the pathway alterations in the knockdown cells led us to the conclusion that IQGAP3 may not be the best target for the therapeutic inhibition to normalize the phenotype of keratinocytes in psoriasis.

Lipidomics profiling reveals the role of glycerophospholipid metabolism in psoriasis

Project description:Psoriasis is a common and chronic inflammatory skin disease complicated by genetic-environmental interactions. Although genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses have been performed to investigate the pathogenesis of psoriasis, the role of metabolites in psoriasis, particularly of lipids, remains unclear. Lipids not only comprise the bulk of the cellular membrane bilayers but also regulate a variety of biological processes, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, immunity, angiogenesis and inflammation. In this study, an untargeted lipidomics approach was used to study the lipid profiles in psoriasis and identify lipid metabolite signatures for psoriasis through ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry. Plasma samples from 90 participants (45 healthy and 45 psoriasis patients) were collected and detected. Statistical analysis was applied to find different features between the disease and control groups. In addition, ELISA was performed to examine differentially-expressed lipids in psoriatic patient plasma. We finally identified several differential expression lipids including LPAs, LysoPCs, PIs, PCs and PAs, among these metabolites, LPAs, LysoPCs and PAs were significantly increased, while PCs and PIs were down-regulated in psoriasis group. We found that elements of the glycerophospholipid metabolism, such as LPAs, LysoPCs, PAs, PIs, and PCs, were significantly altered in the plasma of psoriatic patients. This investigation characterizes the circulating lipids in psoriatic patients and provides novel insights into the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

Transcriptional regulatory networks of psoriasis

Project description:Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease with complex etiology and chronic progression. To provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of regulation of the disease we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis of fourteen pairs of skin samples collected from psoriatic patients with consequent pathway analysis and identification of the main transcriptional regulators of psoriasis-associated pathways. In order to identify the most important regulators of the disease, we combined the results obtained with MetaCore Interactome enrichment tool and cisExpress algorithm and compared them to regulatory psoriasis response elements found in literature. Comparative approach allowed us to identify 42 core transcriptional regulators of the disease associated with inflammation (NFkB, IRF9, JUN, FOS, SRF), activity of T-cells in the psoriatic lesions (STAT6, FOXP3, NFATC2, GATA3, TCF7, RUNX1, etc.), hyper-proliferation and migration of keratinocytes (JUN, FOS, NFIB, TFAP2A, TFAP2C), and with lipid metabolism (TFAP2, RARA, VDR). We also identified 66 transcription factors not previously associated with psoriasis. Using MetaCore pathway maps we illustrated and described the molecular basis of psoriatic skin lesions.
