Project description:Skin carcinogenesis is known to be a multi-step process with several stages along its malignant evolution. We hypothesized that transformation of normal epidermis to cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is causally linked to alterations in miRNA expression. For this end we decided to evaluate their alterations in the pathologic states ending in cSCC. Total RNA was extracted from FFPE biopsies of five stages along the malignant evolution of keratinocytes towards cSCC: Normal epidermis, severe solar elastosis (SE), actinic keratosis (KIN1-2), advanced actinic keratosis, (KIN3) and well differentiated cSCC. Next generation small RNA sequencing was performed. We found that 18 miRNAs are over expressed and 28 miRNAs are under expressed in cSCC compared to normal epidermis. miR-424, miR-320, miR- 222 and miR-15a showed the highest fold change among the over expressed miRNAs. And miR-100, miR-101 and miR-497 showed the highest fold change among the under expressed miRNAs. Heat map of hierarchical clustering analysis of significantly changed miRNAs and principle component analysis disclosed that the most prominent change in miRNAs expression occurred in the switch from “early” stages; normal epidermis, solar elastosis and early actinic keratosis to the “late” stages of epidermal carcinogenesis; late actinic keratosis and cSCC. We found several miRNAs with "stage specific" alterations while others display a clear “gradual”, either progressive increase or decrease in expression along the malignant evolution of keratinocytes. The observed alterations focused in miRNAs involved in the regulation of AKT/mTOR or in those involved in epithelial to mesenchymal transition. We chose to concentrate on the evaluation of the molecular role of miR- 497. We found that it induces reversion of epithelial to mesenchymal transition. We proved that SERPINE-1 is its biochemical target. The present study allows us to further study the pathways which are regulated by miRNAs along the malignant evolution of keratinocytes towards cSCC.

Project description:Actinic keratosis is a common skin disease that may progress to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. Ingenol mebutate has demonstrated efficacy in field treatment of actinic keratosis. However, molecular mechanisms on ingenol mebutate response are not yet fully understood.

Project description:In this study we examine the outcomes of p16INK4a activation in the adult epidermis. We found that prolonged expression of p16INK4a induces epidermal hyperplasia and dysplasia. We also found that continued p16INK4a expression increased the number of epidermal papillomas that developed after carcinogen treatment. Profling of p16INK4a- expressing cells showed elevated levels of Wnt-pathway ligands and targets, and pharmacologic or genetic Wnt inhibition suppressed p16-induced hyperplasia. In human actinic keratosis, a precursor of squamous cell carcinoma, p16-expressing cells are typically found adjacent to dividing cells, consistent with paracrine interaction. These findings reveal that in addition to its cell-autonomous role in blocking cell proliferation, p16 can induce hyperplasia through paracrine stimulation, suggesting that its activity contributes to the formation of early premalignant epidermal lesions.

Project description:Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common skin cancer type and arises from keratinocytes. Most cSCC progress from a UV-induced precancerous lesion termed actinic keratosis (AK). Despite various efforts to characterize these lesions molecularly, the etiology of AK and its progression to cSCC remain only partially understood. Here we have used Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChips to interrogate the DNA methylation status of about 850.000 CpGs in epidermal preparations from healthy skin, AK and cSCC. Importantly, we found that the premalignant AK samples displayed classical features of cancer methylomes and were highly similar to cSCC methylomes. Further analysis identified typical features of stem cell methylomes, such as a reduced DNA methylation age, non-CpG methylation and stem cell-related keratin and enhancer methylation patterns. Interestingly, this signature was detected only in one half of the AK and cSCC samples, while the other half showed methylation patterns that were more closely related to the control epidermis. These findings suggest the existence of two distinct subclasses of AK and cSCC that originate from distinct keratinocyte differentiation stages.

Project description:Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is the most common inflammatory skin disease and characterized by a deficient epidermal barrier and cutaneous inflammation. Genetic studies suggest a key role of keratinocytes in AD pathogenesis, but the alterations in the proteome that occur in the entire epidermis have not been defined. Employing a pressure-cycling technology-data-independent acquisition (PCT-DIA) approach, we performed quantitative proteomics of epidermis from healthy volunteers and lesional and non-lesional skin of AD patients. Results were validated by targeted proteomics using parallel reaction monitoring mass spectrometry or by immunofluorescence staining. The identified proteins reflect the strong inflammation in lesional skin and the defect in keratinocyte differentiation and epidermal stratification. Most importantly, they reveal impaired activation of the NRF2-antioxidant pathway and reduced abundance of mitochondrial proteins involved in key metabolic pathways in the epidermis. These results provide insight into the molecular alterations in the epidermis of AD patients and identify novel targets for pharmaceutical intervention.

Project description:Purpose: Primary cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can be an invasive cancer in skin and has the potential to metastasize. We aimed to define the cancer related molecular changes that distinguish non-invasive from invasive SCC. Experimental design: We used laser capture microdissection technique in combination with cDNA microarray analysis in order to determine molecular changes that associate with SCC progression. Results: We defined invasion-associated genes as those udifferentially regulated only in SCC invasive nests, but not in actinic keratosis-like dysplasia or SCC in situ regions, compared to normal epidermis. We designated these genes as “invasion signature gene set of cutaneous SCC”. Overall we found 383 up- and 354 down-regulated probe-sets that constitute the invasion signature gene set. As part of this profile, SCC invasion is associated with aberrant gene expression changes of numerous MMPs including MMP7 (FCH=5.43, FDR<0.01) and MMP13 (FCH=12.53, FDR<0.01). IL-24 is also up-regulated in the leading invasive edge of SCC (FCH=6.74, FDR<0.01). IL-24 enhanced mRNA expression of both MMP7 and MMP13 in a human SCC cell line. Laminin332, which is one of the target molecules of MMP7, had altered expression at the leading edge of SCC invasion nests at both the genomic and protein level. Conclusions: We defined the distribution of MMPs within human cutaneous SCC tissue showing distinct expression with progression from normal skin to actinic keratosis to SCC in situ to invasive carcinoma. We further suggest a potential role for IL-24 in progression to invasion via MMP7 and MMP13. Laser capture microdissection was performed on 5 cases of actinic keratosis, 5 cases of in situ SCC, and 5 cases of invasive SCC.
