Comprehensive Analysis of Phenotypes and Transcriptome Characteristics Reveal the Best Atopic Dermatitis Mouse Model Induced by MC903

ABSTRACT: Although several mouse models of exogenous-agent–induced atopic dermatitis (AD) are currently available, the lack of certainty regarding their similarity with human AD has limited their scientific value. Thus, comprehensive evaluation of the characteristics of mouse models and their similarity with human AD is essential. The DNFB plus OVA model showed the highest disease severity, while the OVA model showed the lowest severity. The MC903 and MC903 plus OVA models showed high expression of T-helper(Th)2- and Th17-related genes; the DNFB and DNFB plus OVA models showed upregulation of Th1-, Th2-, and Th17-related genes; while the S. aureus inoculation model showed more enhanced Th1 and Th17 immune responses. In contrast to the other models, the OVA-induced model showed the lowest expression levels of inflammation-related genes, while the MC903 model shared the largest overlap with human AD profiles. Each AD mouse model exhibited different characteristics. The MC903 model was the best to recapitulate most features of human AD among these exogenous-agent–induced AD models.

Project description:Mechanisms by which regulatory T (Treg) cells fail to control inflammation in asthma remain poorly understood. We show that a severe asthma-associated polymorphism in the interleukin-4 receptor alpha chain (IL-4RÎ±-R576) biases induced Treg (iTreg) cells towards a T helper 17 (TH17) cell fate. This skewing reflects the recruitment by IL-4RÎ±-R576 of the adaptor protein growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2), which drives IL-17 expression by an extracellular signal-regulated kinase-, IL-6- and STAT3-dependent mechanism. We showed that the IL-4RÎ±-R576 mutation elicits TH17 airway responses in vivo, in a house dust mite (HDM)- or ovalbumin (OVA)-driven model of airway inflammation in the mice carry the IL-4RÎ±-R576 mutation (Il4raR576 mice). Treg cell-specific deletion of genes encoding IL-6RÎ± or the master TH17 cell regulator Retinoid-related Orphan Receptor Î³t (RORÎ³t), but not IL-4 and IL-13, protected mice against exacerbated airway inflammation induced by IL-4RÎ±--576. Analysis of lung tissue Treg cells revealed that the expression of IL-17 and the TH17 cell-associated chemokine receptor CCR6 was largely overlapping and highly enriched in Treg and conventional T (Tconv) cells of allergen-treated Il4raR576 mice. To further characterize the subset of IL-17 producing Foxp3+ Treg in the lung of OVA-treated mice we utilized CCR6 as a marker of Treg cells committed towards the TH17 cell lineage to examine their functional, epigenetic and transcriptional profiles. CCR6+Foxp3EGFP+ Treg cells isolated from OVA-sensitized and challenged Il4raR576 mice, by FACS (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting) exhibited decreased methylation of the Foxp3 CNS2 locus comparing to CCR6âFoxp3EGFP+ Treg cells from same animals, indicative of decreased stability. They also exhibited profoundly decreased suppressive function as compared to CCR6â WT and CCR6â Il4raR576 counterparts. Transcriptional profiling of CCR6+Foxp3EGFP+ Treg cells revealed increased relative expression in CCR6+ Il4raR576 Treg cells of genes associated with a TH17 cell signature, including Rorc, Ccr6, Il23r, Il17a, Il17f, Il1r1, Nr1d1, Cstl, and Ahr comparing to CCR6âFoxp3EGFP+ Treg cells from same animals. Three CCR6+Foxp3EGFP+ Il4raR576 replicates and four CCR6âFoxp3EGFP+ Il4raR576 Treg replicates (controls) were sampled
