Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin for which no cure has emerged. Its complex etiology requires the development of an in vitro model that appropriately recapitulates the physiopathology of this disease. In this study, we exploited the self-assembly method in order to develop a new tissue-engineered model of psoriatic skin substitutes. To circumvent the addition of immune cells, we supplemented the reconstructed psoriatic substitutes with a cocktail of four cytokines, TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-6 and IL-17, and monitored their impact on global gene expression by DNA microarray. The cytokines-supplemented substitutes have a more irregular epidermis, with protuberances and much thinner areas. Most interestingly, gene profiling on microarrays identified several genes reported as being deregulated psoriasis skin in vivo. Indeed, expression of the S100A12, IL8, DEFB4A and KYNU genes increased dramatically compared to their level in normal skin substitutes (P <0.005 to <0.05). In addition, the ACSBG1 gene, reported to be repressed in psoriasis, was also repressed in the cytokines-supplemented psoriatic substitutes compared to the controls (P <0.005). The product encoded by the genes deregulated in the cytokines-supplemented substitutes belong to biological pathways, such as the inflammatory and the immune responses, that are similarly altered in psoriasis in vivo. In conclusion, addition of cytokines to involved psoriatic substitutes alters the transcriptome of these cells in a manner similar to that observed with psoriasis in vivo. The addition of this pro-inflammatory cocktail, comparable cytokine in vivo psoriasis, prepares us for the next step: the characterization of the model once added immune cells. Tissue-engineered psoriatic human skin (TEPHS) cultivated with (number of replicates: 3) or without (number of replicates: 3) Cytokines (IL-17a, IL-6, IL1a, TNF-a).

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

Project description:We report the application of Illumina small RNA sequencing to normal human skin, as well as uninvolved and involved psoriatic skin. By obtaining over 600 million qualified reads from 20 healthy controls and 47 psoriasis biopsies (uninvolved/involved), we have generated a complete small RNA profile in normal and diseased human skin, with particular emphasis on miRNAs. We report the discovery of 284 putative novel miRNAs as well as 98 differentially expressed miRNAs in psoriatic skin. miRNA discovery and expression profiling in 67 normal and psoriatic human skin biopsies

Project description:Psoriasis is a systemic disease with cutaneous manifestations. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNA molecules that are differentially expressed in psoriatic skin, however; only few miRNAs have been localized to specific cells or regions of psoriatic lesions. We used laser capture microdissection (LCM) and next-generation sequencing to study the specific miRNA expression profiles in the epidermis (Epi) and dermal inflammatory aggregates (RD/ICs) of psoriatic skin. We identified 24 deregulated miRNAs in the Epi and 37 deregulated miRNAs in the RD/ICs of lesional psoriatic skin compared with non-lesional psoriatic skin (FCH>2, FDR<0.05). Interestingly, 9 of the 37 miRNAs, including miR-193b and miR-223 that have recently been described as deregulated in circulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with psoriasis. Using flow cytometry and qRT-PCR, miR-193b and miR-223 were found to be expressed in Th17 cells. In conclusion, we demonstrate that LCM combined with small RNA sequencing provides a robust strategy to explore the global miRNA expression in the epidermal and dermal compartments of psoriatic skin. Furthermore, our results indicate that the altered local miRNA changes seen in the RD/ICs is reflected in the circulating immune cells, altogether emphasizing that miRNAs may contribute to a systemic component in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have emerged as central regulators of gene expression and powerful biomarkers of disease. Much is yet unknown about their role in psoriasis pathology. To globally characterize the miRNAome of psoriatic skin, skin biopsies were collected from psoriatic cases (n = 75) and non-psoriatic controls (n = 57) and RNA sequenced. Count data was meta-analyzed with a previously published dataset (cases, n = 24, controls, n = 20), increasing the number of psoriatic cases four-fold from previously published studies. Differential gene expression analyses were performed comparing lesional psoriatic (PP), non-lesional psoriatic (PN) and control (NN) skin. Further, functional enrichment and cell-specific analyses were performed. Across all contrasts, we identified 439 significantly differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs), of which 127 were novel for psoriasis and 11 were related to disease severity. Meta-analyses identified 20 DEMs between PN and NN, suggesting an inherent change in the constitution of all skin in psoriasis. By integrating the miRNA transcriptome with mRNA target interactions, we identified several functionally enriched terms, including ‘thyroid hormone signaling’, ‘insulin resistance’ and various infectious diseases. Cell specific expression analyses revealed that the upregulated DEMs were enriched in epithelial and immune cells. This study provides the most comprehensive overview of the miRNAome in psoriatic skin to date and identifies a miRNA signature related to psoriasis severity. Our results may represent molecular links between psoriasis and related comorbidities and have outlined potential directions for future functional studies to identify biomarkers and treatment targets.

Project description:Background: Plaque psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by the development of red scaly plaques. To date psoriasis lesional skin transcriptome has been extensively studied, whereas only few proteomic studies of psoriatic skin are available. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare protein expression patterns of lesional and normally looking skin of psoriasis patients with skin of the healthy volunteers, reveal differentially expressed proteins and identify changes in cell metabolism caused by the disease. Methods: Skin samples of normally looking and lesional skin donated by psoriasis patients (n = 5) and samples of healthy skin donated by volunteers (n = 5) were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). After protein identification and data processing, the set of differentially expressed proteins was subjected to protein ontology analysis to characterize changes in biological processes, cell components and molecular functions in the patients' skin compared to skin of the healthy volunteers. Results: The performed analysis identified 405 and 59 differentially expressed proteins in lesional and normally looking psoriatic skin compared to healthy control. We discovered decreased expression of KNG1, APOE, HRG, THBS1 and PLG in normally looking skin of the patients. Presumably, these changes were needed to protect the epidermis from spontaneous activation of kallikrein-kinin system and delay the following development of inflammatory response. In lesional skin, we identified several large groups of proteins with coordinated expression. Mainly, these proteins were involved in different aspects of protein and RNA metabolism, namely ATP synthesis and consumption; intracellular trafficking of membrane-bound vesicles, pre-RNA processing, translation, chaperoning and degradation in proteasomes/immunoproteasomes. Conclusion: Our findings explain the molecular basis of metabolic changes caused by disease in skin lesions, such as faster cell turnover and higher metabolic rate. They also indicate on downregulation of kallikrein-kinin system in normally looking skin of the patients that would be needed to delay exacerbation of the disease.
