Project description:TREX2 is a keratinocyte specific 3â-deoxyribonuclease that participates in the maintenance of skin homeostasis upon damage. This transcriptome analysis identified multiple genes and pathways deregulated by TREX2 loss in the IMQ-induced psoriasis-like model in mouse skin. mRNA sequencing of 5 biological replicates of skin from wild-type mice treated with Imiquimod and 6 of Trex2 knockout mice treated with Imiquimod

Project description:miR-146a acts as a negative feedback regulator of inflammation. To investigate the role of miR-146a in psoriasis psoriasiform skin inflammation was indeuced in Mir-146a-/- and wild type mice (C57BL6J) by topical applciation of imiquimod (IMQ)-cream (Aldara). Gene expression profiling (Affymetrix) was used to identify transcriptomic changes associated with psoriasis-like skin inflammation in wild type vs. miR-146a -/-mice. A daily topical dose of 31.25 mg of Aldara cream (5% IMQ) was applied on the right ear of miR-146a -/- and C57BL/6 mice on three consecutive days to induce psorisis-like skin inflammation. Mice were sacrificed at day 4. Ear flaps were collected for total RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymatrix GeneTitan plate format Gene ST 2.1 (mouse).

Project description:Psoriasis is one of the most common dermatological disorders, characterized by increased epidermal hyperplasia and immune cell infiltration. Psychological stress has been reported to contribute to the severity, aggravation, and relapse of psoriasis. We developed a chronic restrain stress (CRS)-imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like mouse model and performed a comprehensive comparative transcriptomic and metabolic analysis with control mice, CRS-treated mice, and IMQ-treated mice to investigate how psychological stress affects psoriasis. We found that CRS-IMQ-induced psoriasis-like mice showed significant exacerbation of psoriasis-like skin inflammation compared with mice treated with IMQ only. Mice of the CRS+IMQ group showed increased expression of keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation genes, differential regulation of cytokines, and promotion of the linoleic acid metabolism. Our study provides new insights into the effects of psychological stress on psoriasis pathogenesis and the mechanisms involved, which provides clues for development of therapeutics or biomarkers.

Project description:Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by aberrant inflammation and epidermal hyperplasia. Molecular mechanisms that regulate psoriasis-like skin inflammation remain to be fully understood. Here we show that the expression of Ovol1 transcription factor is upregulated in psoriatic skin, and its deletion results in aggravated psoriasis-like skin symptoms following stimulation with imiquimod (IMQ). Using bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing, we identify molecular changes in the epidermal, fibroblast and immune cells of Ovol1-deficient skin that reflect altered course of epidermal differentiation and enhanced inflammatory responses. Furthermore, we provide evidence for excessive full-length IL-1 signaling in the microenvironment of IMQ-treated Ovol1-deficient skin that functionally contributes to immune cell infiltration and epidermal hyperplasia. Collectively, our study uncovers a protective role for Ovol1 in curtailing psoriasis-like inflammation and the associated skin pathology

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).

Project description:Crosstalk between keratin-forming cells and aberrant immune cells due to immune imbalance is a key factor in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Most of the current clinical treatments provide rapid symptomatic relief but bring side effects that should not be ignored. Tetrastigma hemsleyanum polysaccharides (THP) have significant immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we used imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis mouse model and LPS/IL-6-stimulated HaCaT cell model. The potential and mechanism of action of THP for psoriasis treatment were assessed by Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) score, histopathology, flow cytometry, Western blot, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The signs and symptoms of psoriatic mice induced by IMQ were significantly relieved by percutaneous administration of THP, including the improvement of psoriatic skin signs (erythema, folds, scales), pathological changes, decreased PASI score, and decreased spleen index. Results of in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that THP inhibits abnormal cell proliferation and excessive inflammation at skin lesions, balances Th17 immune cells, and blocks the keratinocyte-Th17 cell cycle, thus playing a role in psoriasis treatment by a mechanism that may be related to the regulation of the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Project description:The mechanisms underlying pruritus of imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated whether there are certain key signaling molecules downstream of the recently identified peptides mediating itch in the spinal cord. We investigated the changes in the trascriptome by performing RNAseq of cervical spinal cords in control and IMQ-induced psoriasis. Our study represents the detailed analysis of transcriptomes of spinal cord in chronic itch model with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.
