Distinctive Transcriptional and Microbial Signature in Cutaneous Acute Graft-vs-Host-Disease


ABSTRACT: Skin acute graft-vs-host disease (aGVHD) is often the first manifestation of GVHD, yet very few preclinical and clinical studies have focused on this target organ, leaving a critical information gap in the pathophysiology of GVHD. We hypothesized that analysis of host gene expression and microbiome profiling could yield novel insights into the molecular and immunologic mechanisms underlying skin GVHD. Our objectives were to determine the differential host gene expression and microbiome profile of human skin aGVHD samples compared to normal skin, and aGVHD corticosteroid responders to non-responders. We performed RNA-Sequencing on lower arm biopsies from 45 patients compared to 10 healthy controls. Our findings suggest a distinctive transcriptional signature of cutaneous aGVHD, that could identify potentially actionable targets for prevention or treatment of corticosteroid refractory disease. Our analysis suggests a key role of dendritic cells and macrophages, potentially mediated by differential expression of MIF, in the development of cutaneous aGVHD and corticosteroid responsiveness. Additionally, we describe a unique microbial signature in cutaneous aGVHD that includes skin microbes not previously described in this population.
