Acne lesion vs. normal skin. Also includes non-acne patients' normal skin samples.

ABSTRACT: The pathogenesis of acne has been linked to multiple factors such as increased sebum production, inflammation, follicular hyperkeratinization, and the action of Propionibacterium acnes within the follicle. In an attempt to understand the specific genes involved in inflammatory acne, we performed gene expression profiling in acne patients. Skin biopsies were obtained from an inflammatory papule and from normal skin in six patients with acne. Biopsies were also taken from normal skin of six subjects without acne. Gene array expression profiling was conducted using Affymetrix HG-U133A 2.0 arrays comparing lesional to nonlesional skin in acne patients and comparing nonlesional skin from acne patients to skin from normal subjects. Within the acne patients, 211 genes are upregulated in lesional skin compared to nonlesional skin. A significant proportion of these genes are involved in pathways that regulate inflammation and extracellular matrix remodeling, and they include matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 3, IL-8, human beta-defensin 4, and granzyme B. These data indicate a prominent role of matrix metalloproteinases, inflammatory cytokines, and antimicrobial peptides in acne lesions. These studies are the first describing the comprehensive changes in gene expression in inflammatory acne lesions and are valuable in identifying potential therapeutic targets in inflammatory acne.

Transcription profiling of lesional and non-lesional skin from acne patients to study the role of inflammation in early acne lesions

Project description:The mechanisms of inflammation in acne are not well understood. This study performed in two separate patient populations focused on the activation of adaptive and innate immunity in early inflamed acne. Biopsies were collected from lesional and non-lesional skin of acne patients. Psoriasis patients and healthy volunteers were included in the study for comparison (not included in the records). Using Affymetrix Genechips, we observed significant elevation of the signature cytokines of the Th17 lineage in acne lesions compared to non-lesional skin. The increased expression of IL-17 was confirmed with real-time qPCR (RT-PCR) in two separate patient populations. Cytokines involved in Th17 lineage differentiation (IL-1beta, IL-6, TGF-beta; IL23p19) were remarkably induced at the RNA level. In addition, pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-8, TNF-α), Th1 markers (IL12p40, CXCR3, T-bet, IFN-gamma), T regulatory cell markers (Foxp3, IL-10, TGF-β) and antimicrobial peptides (S100A7, S100A9, LNC2, hBD2, hBD3, hCAP18) were induced. Importantly, immunohistochemistry revealed significantly increased numbers of IL-17A positive T cells and CD83 dendritic cells in the acne lesions. In summary our results demonstrate the presence of IL17A positive T cells and the activation of Th17-related cytokines in acne lesions, indicating that the Th17 pathway may play a pivotal role in the disease process, offering new targets of therapy. Total of 24 chips. 12 patients : 2 biospies per patient: 1 lesional and 1 non lesional.

Molecular typing and functional profiling of acne-derived Cutibacterium acnes isolates reveal determinants of skin inflammation

Project description:Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes) is a ubiquitous skin commensal bacterium that is generally well tolerated by the immune system. Different strain-types of C. acnes have been reported to be enriched on patients with acne. To understand if these strain-types contribute to skin inflammation, we generated a library of over 200 C. acnes isolates from skin swabs of healthy and acne subjects and assessed their strain-level identity and inflammatory potential. Phylotype II K-type strains were more frequent on healthy and acne non-lesional skin compared to lesional. Phylotype IA-1 C-type strains were dominant on acne lesional skin but absent from healthy. Measurement of host cytokine responses from C. acnes supernatant revealed neither strain-type nor skin-type association predicted inflammatory potential. However, differential proinflammatory responses were induced from identical strain-types, but these differences were not attributable to protease, short chain fatty acid or porphyrin production. Instead, whole genome sequencing revealed the presence of a linear plasmid in high inflammatory strain-types. Intradermal injection of C. acnes in mouse skin revealed a plasmid-associated inflammatory response in dermal fibroblasts, revealed by single-cell RNA sequencing. We conclude that C. acnes strain-type is not sufficient to predict inflammation but other virulence factors including a plasmid may contribute to disease.

Microdialysis analysis of common inflammatory skin diseases highlights abnormalities in nonlesional skin of patients with atopic dermatitis

Project description:Insight into the pathophysiology of inflammatory skin diseases, especially at the proteomic level, is severely hampered by the lack of adequate in situ data. Skin microdialysis samples from patients with atopic dermatitis (AD, n=6), psoriasis vulgaris (PSO, n=7) or prurigo nodularis (PN, n=6), as well as healthy controls (n=7) were subjected to proteomics and multiplex cytokine analysis. Single-cell RNA sequencing of skin biopsy specimens was used to identify the cellular origin of cytokines. Among the top 20 enriched GO annotations, NAD metabolic process, regulation of secretion by cell, and pyruvate metabolic process were elevated in microdialysates from lesional AD skin compared with both nonlesional skin and controls. The top 20 enriched KEGG pathways in these three groups overlapped almost completely. In contrast, nonlesional skin from patients with PSO or PN and control skin showed no overlap with lesional skin in this KEGG pathway analysis. Lesional skin from patients with PSO, but not AD or PN, showed significantly elevated protein levels of IL-22 and MCP-1 compared to nonlesional skin. IL-8 was elevated in lesional vs nonlesional AD and PSO skin, whereas IL-12p40 was higher only in lesional PSO skin. Integrated single-cell RNA-seq data revealed identical cellular sources of these cytokines in AD, PSO and PN. Based on microdialysate, proteomic data of lesional PSO and PN skin, but not lesional AD skin, differed significantly from those of nonlesional skin. IL-8, IL-22, MCP-1 and IL-12p40 might be suitable markers for minimally invasive molecular profiling.

Single cell RNA-seq data comparing lesional (papules) and non-lesional skin biopsies of acne patients

Project description:We performed single-cell RNA seq analysis on skin biopsies from six acne patients with a total of 32,966 cells from lesional skin and 29,202 cells from non-lesional skin using 10X Genomics. Gene expression data derived from cells in both lesional and non-lesional skin were aligned and projected onto a two-dimensional space using UMAP (Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection). Unsupervised clustering revealed eight major clusters corresponding to seven different cell types lymphocytes, myeloid cells, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and melanocytes.

Transcription profiling of lesional and non-lesional skin from actopic dermititis patients and normal skin

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common pruritic dermatitis with macroscopically nonlesional skin that is often abnormal. Therefore, we used high-density oligonucleotide arrays to identify cutaneous gene transcription changes associated with early AD inflammation as potential disease control targets. Skin biopsy specimens analyzed included normal skin from five healthy nonatopic adults and both minimally lesional skin and nearby or contralateral nonlesional skin from six adult AD patients. Keywords: disease state analysis We used high-density oligonucleotide Affymetrix Human U133A GeneChip arrays to identify cutaneous gene transcription changes associated with early AD inflammation as potential disease control targets. Skin biopsy specimens analyzed included normal skin from five healthy nonatopic adults and both minimally lesional skin and nearby or contralateral nonlesional skin from six adult AD patients.

Profibrotic subsets of SPP1+ macrophages and POSTN+ fibroblasts contribute to fibrotic scarring in acne keloidalis

Project description:Acne keloidalis (AK) is a primary scarring alopecia characterized by longstanding inflammation in the scalp leading to keloid-like scar formation and hair loss. Histologically, AK is characterized by mixed leukocytic infiltrates in the acute stage followed by a granulomatous reaction and extensive fibrosis in later stages. To further explore its pathogenesis, bulk RNA-sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing were applied to scalp biopsy specimens of lesional and adjacent non-lesional skin in patients with clinically active disease. Unbiased clustering revealed 18 distinct cell populations, including two notable populations, POSTN+ fibroblasts with enriched extracellular matrix signatures, and SPP1+ myeloid cells M2 macrophages. Cell communication analyses indicate that fibroblasts and myeloid cells communicate by collagen and SPP1 signaling networks in lesional skin. Tissue immunofluorescence staining demonstrated SPP1+ myeloid cells and POSTN+ fibroblasts at the upper segment of outer root sheath of the hair follicle in the subacute stage, confirming micro-anatomic specificity with relevant disease activity. Therapy with intralesional corticosteroids reduced SPP1 and POSTN expression, and lessened AK progression. In summary, the communication between POSTN+ fibroblasts and SPP1+ myeloid cells by collagen and SPP1 axis may contribute to the pathogenesis of AK.
