RNA sequencing of keratinocyte gene expression in keloid and normal skin tissue

ABSTRACT: RNA sequencing has been performed to investigate the transcriptomic profile of keratinocyte derived from keloid and normal skin tissue. Keratinocytes of low passage (p2-4) were cultured onto T25 flasks until full confluence was reached. Keratinocytes were then harvested by trypsinization using 0.05% trypsin-EDTA and washed in Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini kit protocol. Samples were then sent to the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF) where 1μg of RNA was submitted for next-generation sequencing. Once raw data returned, bioinformatics analyses were conducted. Through RNA-seq and bioinformatics analysis, 252 differentially expressed genes were identified in keloid keratinocytes compared to normal skin keratinocytes. Further gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses revealed that changes in tight junctions and dysregulated response to viral infection were associated with keloid epithelia and may be linked to the disease. The results of the transcriptome analysis intimate that keloid derived keratinocytes exhibit an abnormal gene expression profile and the abnormalities in keloid keratinocytes may have an important role in keloid pathogenesis.

Keratinocyte and fibroblast gene expression in skin and keloid scar tissue

Project description:Keloids are scars that extend beyond original wounds and are resistant to treatment. In order to improve understanding of the molecular basis of keloid scarring, we have assessed the genomic profiles of keloid fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Skin and scar tissues were obtained for isolation of primary keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Keloid scars were excised from patients undergoing scar excision surgery, normal skin samples were isolated from patients undergoing elective plastic surgery. Primary culters were prepared for keratinocytes and fibroblasts, and were harvested for analysis up to passage three. Nine keloid scars, for adjacent non-lesional keloid skin samples, and three normal skin samples were obtained and cultured. RNA was isolated using RNeasy, and quality verified using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Labeling and hybridization to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarray chips was performed by the Vanderbilt Genome Sciences Resource at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Topical application of an irreversible small molecule inhibitor of Lysyl Oxidases ameliorates skin scarring and fibrosis

Project description:Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been performed to investigate the effect of Lysyl oxidase inhibition by PXS-4787A on transcriptome of normal skin derived fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Fibroblasts and keratinocytes of low passage (p2-5) were cultured onto T25 flasks until ~70% confluence was reached. Fibroblasts were treated with or without 10 µM PXS-4787A in complete fibroblast growth media for 48 hours at 37°C. Keratinocytes were treated with 10 µM PXS-4787A with basal keratinocyte medium supplemented with 1.2 mM calcium chloride for 48 hours at 37°C. Cells were then collected using 0.05% trypsin and washed in Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini kit protocol. Samples were then sent to the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF) where 1μg of RNA was submitted for next-generation sequencing. Once raw data returned, bioinformatics analyses were conducted. This study found that the exposure of PXS-4787A only had minor impact on gene expression in both fibroblasts and keratinocytes. In fibroblasts, 3 genes were significantly upregulated and only one gene was significantly downregulated. Besides, There were only two upregulated genes in the whole genome analysis after LOX inhibition in keratinocytes. In conclusion, this study highlights the safety of LOX-inhibition through PXS-4787A on primary human epidermal cells. The results of the transcriptome analysis intimate that PXS-4787A treatment has no adverse effects on the healthy keratinocytes. Taken together, this study suggests that LOX-inhibition has no potential effects on the epidermal differentiation in human skin.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of keloid scars and normal skin tissues

Project description:Keloid scars is a pathologic fibro-proliferative disorders of the skin, which exhibit abnormal phenotypes including fibroblasts proliferation and collagen deposits. There have been several treatments of keloids including conventional surgical therapies and adjuvant therapies, but a high recurrence rate of keloids was also observed after treatment. Quantitative proteomics approach has been proved an efficient approach to investigate pathological mechanism and novel biomarkers. In this study, we present a label-free quantitative proteomics analysis to explore differential protein expression profiles in normal skin and keloid scar tissues based on nano-liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (Nano-LC–MS/MS). The study results displayed a more comprehensive keloid protein expression landscape and provided novel pathological insight of keloid.

WNT5A Drives IL-6-Dependent Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition via the JAK/STAT Pathway in Keloid Pathogenesis

Project description:Purpose: We aimed to identify the molecular drivers that initiate or sustain keloid pathogenesis. Method: Bulk tissue RNA sequencing of Asian keloid and normal tissues was performed to identify genes that contribute to keloid pathogenesis. We also established a preclinical model of inflammatory skin fibrosis by injecting C57BL/6 mice with bleomycin intradermally for 3 weeks to provide an alternative animal model of keloid scar. Result: Gene set enrichment analysis revealed upregulation of WNT5A gene expression, along with significant enrichment of genes related to EMT in keloid tissues. These results correlate with those of histological analysis in which human keloid tissues and the bleomycin-induced fibrosis animal model showed increased WNT5A expression along with EMT markers. Our in vitro data showed increased expression of the IL-6/JAK/STAT pathway and subsequent elevation in EMT markers on keratinocytes when co-cultured with WNT5A-activated fibroblasts or keloid fibroblasts. Silencing of WNT5A reversed the hyperactivation of the STAT pathway and EMT. Conclusion: IL-6 secreted from WNT5A-activated fibroblasts or keloid fibroblasts may induce adjacent keratinocytes to express EMT markers by activating the JAK/STAT signalling pathway. A better understanding of keloid pathogenesis and the role of WNT5A in EMT will promote the development of next-generation targeted treatments for keloid scars.

The Role of the Mammalian Target of Rapamycin in Keloid and Hypertrophic Scars

Project description:We hypothesize that, the mTOR pathway is a dominant pathway in cultured keloid and hypertrophy scar fibriblasts compared to normal skin cells. Certain pathway changes can be detected after medication treatment. Global gene expression in RNA samples from rapamycin and tacrolimus treated fibroblasts (from normal skin and hypertrophic scars, keloid scars) is assayed to study the possibility to use mTOR inhibitors as potential drug to treat abnormal scarring. We investigated the difference between normal wound healing and hypertrophic scars and keloids as well.

STAT3 Signaling Pathway in Keloid Pathogenesis Implicated by Preliminary Transcriptome and ATAC Analyses

Project description:Keloids are wounding-induced fibroproliferative human tumor–like skin scars of complex genetic makeup and poorly defined pathogenesis. Fibroblasts are the principal mediator of fibroproliferative disorders. To reveal dynamic epigenetic and transcriptome changes of keloid fibroblasts, a vertical study from RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analyses followed by in vivo confirmation of candidate molecule expression and subsequent functional testing was carried out using an early passage, freshly isolated keloid fibroblast cell strain and its paired normal control. These keloid fibroblasts produce keloid-like scars in a plasma clot-based skin equivalent humanized keloid animal model. RNA-seq analysis reveals that Hepatic fibrosis is the most significant pathway followed by Wnt–b-catenin signaling, TGF-b signaling, regulation of the EMT pathway, the STAT3 pathway, and adherens junction signaling. ATAC-seq analysis shows that STAT3 signaling is the most active pathway in keloid fibroblasts, followed by Wnt signaling (Wnt5) and regulation of the EMT pathway. Immunohistochemistry confirms that activated STAT3, (Tyr705 phospho-STAT3) and/or b-catenin are upregulated in dermal fibroblasts of keloid clinical specimens and mature keloid skin equivalent implants from the humanized mouse model compared to the normal control. The effect of STAT3 signaling on keloid fibroblast collagen expression was further tested in plasma clot-based skin equivalents using Cucurbitacin I, a selective JAK2/STAT3 inhibitor. A non-linear dose response of Cucurbitacin I was observed in collagen type I expression indicating a likely role of STAT3 signaling pathway in keloid pathogenesis. This work also demonstrates the utility of the recently established humanized keloid mouse model in exploring the mechanism of keloid formation.

Extracellular matrix analysis of human keloid scars

Project description:Fibrosis is vaguely described as connective tissue deposition that can be excessive in pathological conditions. This suggests a quantitative spectrum of fibrosis wherein there can be more or less extracellular matrix (ECM), which in the context of a repairing skin wound could reflect the range from normal scar to keloid. This depiction, however, does not encompass the potential qualitative differences between normal and pathological scars. In keloids, the markedly different physical (hard and dense) and histological (hyalinization) characteristics compared to normal scars indicate an altered and inappropriate matrix, rather than simply too much. With this quantitative discovery-based proteomics we provide a thorough molecular description of keloid lesions relative to normal scars, which is an essential step towards our understanding of this problem.
