Stimulation with THBS4 activates pathways that regulate proliferation, migration and inflammation in primary human keratinocytes

ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis, which is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by persistent epidermal barrier dysfunction, is a systemic health burden reducing overall quality of life of the person. Recently, we showed that the nonstructural extracellular matrix molecule Thrombospondin-4 (THBS4) was upregulated in psoriatic skin lesions by more than 2-fold. In addition, THBS4 contributed to both skin regeneration and wound healing in vitro and in vivo. In the present work we found that THBS4 is also abundantly expressed in AD patient skin biopsies. By using a proteotransciptomic approach we show that stimulation of primary keratinocytes with THBS4 activates multiple factors, including inflammation, migration, proliferation, keratinocyte differentiation, by which THBS4 could participate in AD progression and contribute to the wound healing process.

Thrombospondin-4 is a soluble dermal inflammatory signal that activates the fibroblast migration for skin regeneration and wound healing

Project description:The present study aimed to investigate the role of Thbs4 in skin regeneration and elucidate its effects on cellular responses. Here we show that Thbs4 expression is upregulated in healing skin wounds and wound healing can be promoted by the application of recombinant Thbs4 protein. Thbs4 was shown to promote keratinocyte proliferation and fibroblast migration by activating β-catenin signalling cascade. This indicates that incorporating Thbs4 into novel wound healing therapies can be a promising therapeutic strategy for hard-to-heal chronic wounds.

Thrombospondin-4 is a soluble dermal signal that selectively promotes fibroblast migration and keratinocyte proliferation for skin regeneration and wound healing

Project description:Thrombosponin-4 (THBS4) is a non-structural extracellular matrix molecule associated with tissue regeneration and a variety of pathological processes characterized by increased cell proliferation and migration. However, the mechanisms of how THBS4 regulates cell behaviour as well as the pathways contributing to its effects have remained largely unexplored. In the present study we investigated the role of THBS4 in skin regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. We found that THBS4 expression was upregulated in the dermal compartment of healing skin wounds in humans as well as in mice. Application of recombinand THBS4 protein promoted cutaneous wound healing in mice and selectively stimulated migration of primary fibroblasts as well as proliferation of keratinocytes in vitro. By using a combined proteotranstriptomic pathway analysis approach we discovered that beta-catenin acted as a hub for THBS4-dependent cell signaling and likely plays a key role in promoting its downstream effects. Out results suggest that THBS4 is an important contributor to wound healing and its incorporation into novel wound healing therapies may be a promising strategy for treatment of hard-to-heal wounds.

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.

Metabolic Reprogramming and Reliance in Human Skin Wound Healing

Project description:Impaired skin wound healing is a significant global health issue, especially among the elderly. Wound healing is a well-orchestrated process involving the sequential phases of inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Although wound healing is a highly dynamic and energy-requiring process, the role of metabolism remains largely unexplored. By combining transcriptomics and metabolomics of human skin biopsy samples, we mapped the core bioenergetic and metabolic changes in normal acute as well as chronic wounds in elderly subjects. We found upregulation of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, glutaminolysis, and β-oxidation in the later stages of acute wound healing and in chronic wounds. To ascertain the role of these metabolic pathways on wound healing, we targeted each pathway in a wound healing assay as well as in a human skin explant model using metabolic inhibitors and stimulants. Enhancement or inhibition of glycolysis and, to a lesser extent, glutaminolysis had a far greater impact on wound healing than similar manipulations of oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid β-oxidation. These findings increase the understanding of wound metabolism and identify glycolysis and glutaminolysis as potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Setd2 Epidermal Deficiency Promotes Cutaneous Wound Healing via Activation of AKT/mTOR Signaling (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Skin wound healing is one of the major prevalent medical problems in the worldwide. Wound healing involves multi-process synergy and re-epithelialization is an essential part of wound healing. Histone H3K36 tri-methylase Setd2 has been extensively studied in different biological processes and diseases. However, the function of Setd2 in the wound healing remains unclear. To elucidate the biological role of Setd2 in the skin wound healing, conditional gene targeting was employed to establish epidermis-specific Setd2-deficient mice. We found that Setd2 deficiency resulted in accelerated re-epithelialization during cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocytes proliferation and migration. Furthermore, we demonstrated that loss of Setd2 activated the AKT/mTOR pathway, and pharmacological inhibitions of AKT and mTOR with MK2206 and rapamycin delayed wound closure, respectively. In conclusion, our results reveal the essential role of Setd2 in skin wound healing that is Setd2 loss promotes cutaneous wound healing via activation of AKT/mTOR signaling.

RNAseq changes in mouse wound with or without time course treatment by Vemurafenib

Project description:BRAF inhibitors are highly effective therapies for patients with BRAF V600 mutated metastatic melanoma. Patients who receive BRAF inhibitors develop a variety of hyper-proliferative skin conditions, whose pathogenic basis is the paradoxical activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in BRAF wild-type cells. Most of these hyper-proliferative skin changes improve when a MEK inhibitor is co-administered, as a MEK inhibitor blocks paradoxical MAPK activation. We tested whether we could take advantage of the mechanistic understanding of the skin hyper-proliferative side effects of BRAF inhibitors to accelerate skin wound healing by inducing paradoxical MAPK activation. Here we show that the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib accelerates human keratinocyte proliferation and migration by increasing ERK phosphorylation and cell cycle progression. Topical treatment with vemurafenib in two wound-healing models in mice accelerated cutaneous wound healing and improved the tensile strength of healing wounds through paradoxical MAPK activation; addition of a MEK inhibitor reversed the benefit of vemurafenib-accelerated wound healing. The same dosing regimen of topical BRAF inhibitor did not increase the incidence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas in mice even after the application of a carcinogen. Therefore, topical BRAF inhibitors may have clinical applications in accelerating the healing of skin wounds. Full depth incisional wound mice tissues with/without Vemurafenib treatment were sent for RNAseq analysis on day 2, 6 and 14

Expression data from wound skin taken at three time points post wounding

Project description:The full complement of hair follicles is generated during embryogenesis. Normally, no new hair is created after this time. Large full thickness skin excision wounding can result in the generation of new hair in the adult. Placodes can be observed following complete reepithelialization at wound day 14. The events leading to hair neogenesis following wounding remain poorly understood. Late healing events (from wound day 10 to wound day 14) provide a possible window of induction for hair regeneration. We used microarrays to analyse changes in gene expression during late skin healing to provide candidates for factors involved in hair neogenesis following wounding. 6 week old C57Bl/6 mice received large full thickness skin excisions. Healing wound tissue was excised at wound day 10, 12 or 14 and analyzed for gene expression.

The temporal dynamics of proteins in aged skin wound healing and comparison to gene expression

Project description:Wound healing, a multifaceted process, often leads to chronic wounds when disrupted. Predominantly, research in this area has relied on in vitro or animal models, which potentially oversimplify the intricacies of human wound healing. This simplification could contribute to the current gap in effective clinical therapies and prognostic tools. Our study aims to deepen the understanding of human skin wound healing mechanisms at the temporal protein level. Utilizing labeled mass spectrometry, we quantified the proteome of full-thickness skin samples at both acute and late healing stages from legs of 14 healthy individuals. Our results revealed distinct proteomic profiles corresponding to different wound healing days, indicating a unique protein signature for each stage. Functional enrichment analysis identified key elements such as post-translational modifications, histone interaction networks, and proteins related to transcription and metabolism as pivotal in the early phases of healing. Additionally, a comparative analysis of protein and mRNA expression in similar sample types revealed only moderate correlation, suggesting that mRNA assessments alone might not fully capture the complexity of the healing process. This finding underscores the necessity for multi-omics approaches to comprehensively understand complex molecular mechanisms such as human skin wound healing.
