Project description:Impaired skin wound healing is a significant global health issue, especially among the elderly. Wound healing is a well-orchestrated process involving the sequential phases of inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Although wound healing is a highly dynamic and energy-requiring process, the role of metabolism remains largely unexplored. By combining transcriptomics and metabolomics of human skin biopsy samples, we mapped the core bioenergetic and metabolic changes in normal acute as well as chronic wounds in elderly subjects. We found upregulation of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, glutaminolysis, and β-oxidation in the later stages of acute wound healing and in chronic wounds. To ascertain the role of these metabolic pathways on wound healing, we targeted each pathway in a wound healing assay as well as in a human skin explant model using metabolic inhibitors and stimulants. Enhancement or inhibition of glycolysis and, to a lesser extent, glutaminolysis had a far greater impact on wound healing than similar manipulations of oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid β-oxidation. These findings increase the understanding of wound metabolism and identify glycolysis and glutaminolysis as potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Project description:To study early-onset gene expression changes in cutaneous wound healing, 3 mm wounds were induced into the back skin of female wildtype C57BL/6 mice using a biopsy punch. Mice were sacrificed 2h, 6h or 24h post wound induction (PWI) and 1 - 1.5 mm of skin lining the wound edge was isolated and sequenced. The skin from the initial punch biopsy (0h PWI) was preserved and taken as a control sample to identify differentially expressed genes.

Project description:Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the major complications in type II diabetes patients and can result in amputation and morbidity. Although multiple approaches are used clinically to help wound closure, many patients still lack adequate treatment. Here we show that IL-20 subfamily cytokines are upregulated during normal wound healing. While there is a redundant role for each individual cytokine in this subfamily in wound healing, mice deficient in IL-22R, the common receptor chain for IL-20, IL-22, and IL-24, display a significant delay in wound healing. Furthermore, IL-20, IL-22 and IL-24 are all able to promote wound healing in type II diabetic db/db mice. When compared to other growth factors such as VEGF and PDGF that accelerate wound healing in this model, IL-22 uniquely induced genes involved in reepithelialization, tissue remodeling and innate host defense mechanisms from wounded skin. Interestingly, IL-22 treatment showed superior efficacy compared to PDGF or VEGF in an infectious diabetic wound model. Taken together, our data suggest that IL-20 subfamily cytokines, particularly IL-20, IL-22, and IL-24, might provide therapeutic benefit for patients with DFU.

Project description:An effective healing response is critical to healthy aging. Thus, the connection of regeneration and aging is needed to understand the complicated age-related healing process. Energy metabolism has been a common hallmark of both studies. In recent years, it become an emerging factor of skin homeostasis. Adenine nucleotide translocase-2 (ANT2) is a known cell proliferation marker and mediator of ATP import into mitochondria for energy homeostasis. Although energy homeostasis and the maintenance of mitochondrial function are critical for wound healing, the role of ANT2 in wound healing has not been elucidated. We found that ANT2 expression decreased during aging in mouse skin as well as during cellular senescence. Interestingly, overexpression of ANT2 in aged mouse skin promoted the healing of full-thickness cutaneous wounds. In addition, upregulation of ANT2 in replicative senescent human diploid dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) induced cell proliferation and migration, which are critical for the wound healing process. Furthermore, overexpression of ANT2 increased ATP production rate by activating the glycolysis pathway and also increased mitophagy, both of which are involved in energy homeostasis. Notably, ANT2-mediated upregulation of HSPA6 in aged HDFs inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory genes that mediate cellular senescence and mitochondrial damage. This study demonstrates a new physiological role of ANT2 in skin wound healing via regulation of cell proliferation, energy homeostasis, and inflammation. Thus, our study links energy metabolism to skin homeostasis and identifies a genetic factor for improving wound healing with aging model.

Project description:Wound healing, a multifaceted process, often leads to chronic wounds when disrupted. Predominantly, research in this area has relied on in vitro or animal models, which potentially oversimplify the intricacies of human wound healing. This simplification could contribute to the current gap in effective clinical therapies and prognostic tools. Our study aims to deepen the understanding of human skin wound healing mechanisms at the temporal protein level. Utilizing labeled mass spectrometry, we quantified the proteome of full-thickness skin samples at both acute and late healing stages from legs of 14 healthy individuals. Our results revealed distinct proteomic profiles corresponding to different wound healing days, indicating a unique protein signature for each stage. Functional enrichment analysis identified key elements such as post-translational modifications, histone interaction networks, and proteins related to transcription and metabolism as pivotal in the early phases of healing. Additionally, a comparative analysis of protein and mRNA expression in similar sample types revealed only moderate correlation, suggesting that mRNA assessments alone might not fully capture the complexity of the healing process. This finding underscores the necessity for multi-omics approaches to comprehensively understand complex molecular mechanisms such as human skin wound healing.

Project description:Senescent cells accumulate in aging tissues, impairing their ability to undergo repair and regeneration following injury. Previous research has demonstrated that targeting tissue senescence with senolytics can enhance tissue regeneration and repair by selectively eliminating senescent cells in specific aged tissues. In this study, we focused on eliminating senescent skin cells in aged mice to assess the effects on subsequent wound healing. We applied ABT-263 (Navitoclax) and a DMSO control directly to the skin of 24-month-old mice over a 5-day period. Following ABT-263 treatment, aged skin showed decreased gene expression of senescent markers p16 and p21, accompanied by reductions in SA-β-gal and p21-positive cells compared to the DMSO-treated skin. However, ABT-263 treatment also triggered a temporary inflammatory response and macrophage infiltration in the skin. Bulk RNA sequencing of ABT-263-treated skin revealed prompt upregulation of genes associated with wound healing pathways, including hemostasis, inflammation, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, collagen synthesis, and extracellular matrix organization. Aged mice treated with ABT-263 exhibited accelerated wound closure compared to the DMSO control group. In conclusion, topical ABT-263 effectively reduced several senescence markers in aged skin, thereby priming the skin for improved subsequent wound healing. This enhancement may be attributed to ABT-263-induced senolysis and the resulting inflammation, which in turn stimulated the expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix remodeling and wound repair pathways.
