Project description:Adalimumab, but neither etanercept nor certolizumab-pegol, has been reported to induce a wound healing profile in the circulation of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a chronic inflammatory skin disease. However, the role of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) inhibitors in cutaneous wound healing in vivo is still unclear. To examine and compare the efficacy of various TNF inhibitors in cutaneous wound healing in vivo, a human TNF knock-in Leprdb/db mouse model was established to model the impaired cutaneous wound healing as seen in HS. The vehicle group exhibited severe impairments in cutaneous wound healing. In contrast, adalimumab significantly accelerated healing, confirmed by both histologic assessment and a unique healing transcriptional profile. Moreover, adalimumab and infliximab showed similar levels of efficacy, but golimumab was less effective, along with etanercept and certolizumab-pegol. In line with histologic assessments, proteomics analyses from healing wounds exposed to various TNF inhibitors revealed distinct and differential wound healing signatures that may underlie the differential efficacy of these inhibitors in accelerating cutaneous wound healing. Taken together, these data revealed that TNF inhibitors exhibited differential levels of efficacy in accelerating cutaneous wound healing in the impaired wound healing model in vivo likely through distinct mechanisms of action related to the structure of the biologic or its ability to bind TNF.

Project description:Adalimumab is the only FDA- and EMA-approved treatment for moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), suggesting that the mechanism of action of adalimumab is distinct in HS and may contribute to improved wound healing. We have demonstrated that adalimumab, but neither etanercept nor certolizumab-pegol, induces a wound healing profile in vitro, which may underlie the differences in efficacy between various anti-TNF agents. To examine and compare the efficacy of therapeutic TNF inhibitors in chronic cutaneous wound healing in vivo, a human TNF knock-in Leprdb/db mouse model was established. The vehicle group exhibited severe impairments in cutaneous wound healing. In contrast, adalimumab significantly accelerated healing, confirmed by both histologic assessment and a unique healing transcriptional profile. Moreover, adalimumab and infliximab showed similar levels of efficacy, but golimumab was less effective, along with etanercept and certolizumab-pegol. In line with histologic assessments, proteomics analyses from healing wounds exposed to various TNF inhibitors revealed distinct and differential wound healing signatures that may underlie the differential efficacy of therapeutic inhibitors in accelerating chronic wound healing.

Project description:Olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4) is an olfactomedin-domain-containing glycoprotein which regulates cell adhesion, proliferation, gastrointestinal inflammation, innate immunity and cancer metastasis. In the present study investigated its role in skin regeneration and wound healing. We found that OLFM4 expression is transiently upregulated in the proliferative phase of cutaneous wound healing in humans as well as in mice. Moreover, a significant increase in OLFM4 expression was detected in the skin of lesional psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation. In vitro experiments demonstrated that OLFM4 can selectively stimulate keratinocyte proliferation and increase both keratinocyte and fibroblast migration ability. Using proteotransciptomic pathway analysis we revealed that transcription factors POU5F1/OCT4 and ESR1 acted as hubs for OLFM4-dependent signalling in keratinocytes. In vivo experiments utilizing mouse splinted full-thickness cutaneous wound healing model showed that application of recombinant OLFM4 protein can significantly improve wound healing time. Taken together, our results suggest that OLFM4 is a transiently upregulated inflammatory signal that promotes wound healing by supporting the functions of both dermal and epidermal cell compartments.

Project description:When compared to skin, oral mucosal wounds heal rapidly and with reduced scar formation. This study used an Affymetrix microarray platform to compare the transcriptomes of oral mucosa and skin wounds in order to identify critical differences in the healing response at these two sites. Using microarrays, we explored the differences in gene expression in skin and oral mucosal wound healing in a murine model of paired equivalent-sized wounds. Samples were examined from day 0 to day 10 and spanned all stages of the wound healing process. Unwounded matched tissue was used as a control. Tissue samples collected at each post-wounding time point, as well as control samples, were represented by 3 biological replicates.

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:Skin wound healing is one of the major prevalent medical problems in the worldwide. Wound healing involves multi-process synergy and re-epithelialization is an essential part of wound healing. Histone H3K36 tri-methylase Setd2 has been extensively studied in different biological processes and diseases. However, the function of Setd2 in the wound healing remains unclear. To elucidate the biological role of Setd2 in the skin wound healing, conditional gene targeting was employed to establish epidermis-specific Setd2-deficient mice. We found that Setd2 deficiency resulted in accelerated re-epithelialization during cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocytes proliferation and migration. Furthermore, we demonstrated that loss of Setd2 activated the AKT/mTOR pathway, and pharmacological inhibitions of AKT and mTOR with MK2206 and rapamycin delayed wound closure, respectively. In conclusion, our results reveal the essential role of Setd2 in skin wound healing that is Setd2 loss promotes cutaneous wound healing via activation of AKT/mTOR signaling.

Project description:Proteases control complex tissue responses by modulating inflammation, cell proliferation and migration, and matrix remodeling. All these processes are orchestrated in cutaneous wound healing to restore the skin’s barrier function upon injury. Altered protease activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of healing impairments, and proteases are important targets in diagnosis and therapy of this pathology. Global assessment of proteolysis at critical turning points after injury will define crucial events in acute healing that might be disturbed in healing disorders. As optimal biospecimens, wound exudates contain an ideal proteome to detect extracellular proteolytic events, are non-invasively accessible, and can be collected at multiple time points along the healing process from the same wound in the clinics. In this study, we applied multiplexed Terminal Amine Isotopic Labeling of Substrates (TAILS) to globally assess proteolysis in early phases of cutaneous wound healing. By quantitative analysis of proteins and protein N termini in wound fluids from a clinically relevant pig wound model, we identified more than 650 proteins and discerned major healing phases through distinctive abundance clustering of markers of inflammation, granulation tissue formation, and re-epithelialization. TAILS revealed a high degree of proteolysis at all time points after injury by detecting almost 1300 N-terminal peptides in ~450 proteins, most of which could not be assigned to known mature protein N termini. Quantitative positional proteomics mapped pivotal interdependent processing events in the blood coagulation cascade, detailed activating thrombin cleavages in vivo, and temporally discerned clotting and fibrinolysis during the healing process. Similarly, we found virtually all major cleavages in complement activation and inactivation and demonstrated time-dependent changes in the proteolytic potential of the wound milieu by detecting processing of complement C3 at distinct time points after wounding and by different proteases.

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.
