The effects of TGM1 Mutations in HEK293T and HaCaT cells

ABSTRACT: Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a group of rare inherited skin disorders characterized by remarkable hyperkeratosis. Transglutaminase 1 (TGM1) mutations have been reported to be involved in four different phenotypes of ARCI, including lamellar ichthyosis (LI), non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NBCIE), bathing suit ichthyosis (BSI), and self-improving collodion ichthyosis (SICI) according to the clinical presentation and histopathology. TGM1 has been found as a defective gene in a large amount of patients with LI and some patients with NBCIE, BSI and SICI. To further understand the effect of TGM1 mutations in epidermal cells development, we performed the transcriptome analysis of HEK293T and HaCaT cells transfected with TGM1 shRNA, TGM1 wild-type and mutant clones. The transcriptomic analysis revealed the effects of TGM1 on cell-cell interaction by suppressing genes involved in the gap junctions, tight junctions and desmosomes. These findings suggested that the TGM1 deficiency disturbed the balance of keratinocytes proliferation and differentiation processes and impaired the epithelial barrier function. The results provided the basis for further understanding on the etiology of ARCI.

Project description:Targets of Retinoic Acid (RA) and 3,4-didehydroretinoic acid (ddRA) were identified in primary human epidermal keratinocytes grown in the presence of atRA or ddRA for 4 and 24 hours. Retinoids (natural forms and synthetic derivatives of vitamin A) are used as therapeutic agents for numerous skin diseases such as keratinization disorders (e.g. ichthyoses) and psoriasis. Two endogenous ligands for retinoic acid receptors exist, retinoic acid (atRA) and 3,4-didehydroretinoic acid (ddRA). In primary human epidermal keratinocytes many transcriptional targets for atRA are known, whereas the targets for ddRA are unknown. In an attempt to determine the targets, we compared the effect of atRA and ddRA on transcriptional profiles in undifferentiated and differentiating human primary keratinocytes. First, as expected, many genes were induced or suppressed in response to keratinocyte differentiation. Furthermore, the two retinoids affected substantially more genes in differentiated keratinocytes (more than 350) than in proliferating keratinocytes (20). In differentiating keratinocytes markers of cornification were suppressed suggesting a de-differentiating effect by the two retinoids. When comparing the expression profile of atRA to that of ddRA, no differently regulated genes were found. The array analysis also found that a minor number of miRNAs and a large number of non-coding transcripts were changed during differentiation and in response to the two retinoids. Furthermore, the expression of all, except one, genes known to cause autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) were found to be induced by differentiation. These results comprehensively document that atRA and ddRA exert similar transcriptional changes in keratinocytes and also add new insights into the molecular mechanism influenced by retinoids in the epidermis. Furthermore, it suggests which ARCI patients could benefit from therapy with retinoids. Proliferating and differentiated keratinocytes were harvested after 4 and 24 hours after treatment with atRA, ddRA and vehicle for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Triplicate samples were generated for each time point and each treatment.
