Spatial transcriptomics revealed that S1pr2 deletion in keratinocytes increases the MyD88/NF-kB pathway and psoriasis-related cytokine expression in the epidermis

ABSTRACT: The importance of the cross-talk between keratinocytes and immune cells in the pathogenesis of psoriasis has recently been reaffirmed. Recent studies have found that several S1PR functional antagonists, other than S1PR2, are effective in improving psoriasis. We performed spatial transcriptomics to map the immune cell landscape and its association with metabolic pathways in an imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like inflammation in S1pr2fl/fl K14-Cre mice that could not sense sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in the epidermis through the S1PR2 receptor. Our analysis suggests that S1PR2 in keratinocytes plays a major role in psoriasis-like inflammation compared to other S1PRs. It acts as a down-regulator, inhibiting the recruitment of Th17 cells into the skin.

Project description:Development of a suitable mouse model would facilitate the investigation of pathomechanisms underlying human psoriasis and would also assist in development of therapeutic treatments. However, while many psoriasis mouse models have been proposed, no single model recapitulates all features of the human disease, and standardized validation criteria for psoriasis mouse models have not been widely applied. In this study, whole-genome transcriptional profiling is used to compare gene expression patterns manifested by human psoriatic skin lesions with those that occur in five psoriasis mouse models (K5-Tie2, imiquimod, K14-AREG, K5-Stat3C and K5-TGFbeta1). While the cutaneous gene expression profiles associated with each mouse phenotype exhibited statistically significant similarity to the expression profile of psoriasis in humans, each model displayed distinctive sets of similarities and differences in comparison to human psoriasis. For all five models, correspondence to the human disease was strong with respect to genes involved in epidermal development and keratinization. Immune and inflammation-associated gene expression, in contrast, was more variable between models as compared to the human disease. These findings support the value of all five models as research tools, each with identifiable areas of convergence to and divergence from the human disease. Additionally, the approach used in this paper provides an objective and quantitative method for evaluation of proposed mouse models of psoriasis, which can be strategically applied in future studies to score strengths of mouse phenotypes relative to specific aspects of human psoriasis. Global transcriptional profiling was utilized to evaluate the similarity between human psoriasis and the psoriasis-like phenotypes that develop in five mouse models (K5-Tie2, IMQ, K14-AREG, K5-Stat3C, K5-TGFbeta1) Expression patterns associated with mouse phenotypes were evaluated by comparing lesional skin from transgenic or IMQ-treated mice (n = 2-3) with normal skin obtained from control mice (n = 2-3).
