Project description:Defective fibroblast migration cause delayed wound healing (WH) and chronic skin lesions. Autologous micrograft (AMG) therapies have recently emerged as a new effective treatment able to improve wound healing capacity. However, the molecular mechanisms connecting their beneficial outcomes with the wound healing process are still unrevealed. Here, we show that AMG modulates primary fibroblast migration and accelerates skin re-epithelialization without affecting cell proliferation. We demonstrate that AMG is enriched in a pool of WH-associated growth factors that may provide the initiation signal for faster endogenous wound healing response. This, in turn leads to increased cell migration rate by elevating activity of ERK and subsequent activation of matrix metalloproteinase expression and their extracellular enzymatic activity. Moreover, AMG-treated wounds showed increased granulation tissue formation and organized collagen content. Overall, we shed light on AMG molecular mechanism supporting its potential to trigger highly improved wound healing process.

Project description:We perfomed RNA-seq and wound healing analysis to identify the mechanism how SOX2 promote wound healing. We showed that induction of SOX2 in skin keratinocytes accelerates cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocyte migration and proliferation, and enhancement of angiogenesis via the upregulation of EGFR ligands.

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 is essential to repair the skin after injury. In the epidermis, distinct stem cells (SCs) populations contribute to wound healing. However, how SCs balance proliferation, differentiation and migration to repair a wound remains poorly understood. Here we show the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate wound healing in mouse tail epidermis. Using a combination of proliferation kinetics experiments and molecular profiling, we identify the gene signatures associated with proliferation, differentiation and migration in different regions surrounding the wound. Functional experiments show that SC proliferation, migration and differentiation can be uncoupled during wound healing. Lineage tracing and quantitative clonal analysis reveal that, following wounding, progenitors divide more rapidly, but conserve their homeostatic mode of division, leading to their rapid depletion whereas SCs become active, giving rise to new progenitors that expand and repair the wound. These results have important implications for tissue regeneration, acute and chronic wound disorders.

Project description:Clinical evidence has established that concomitant traumatic brain injury accelerates bone healing, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. This study showed that after TBI, injured neurons, mainly those in the hippocampus, released osteogenic microRNA (miRNA)-enriched exosomes, which targeted osteoprogenitors in bone to stimulate bone formation. Importantly, increased fibronectin expression on exosomal surface contributed to targeting of osteoprogenitors in bone by TBI exosomes, thereby implying that modification of the exosome surface fibronectin could be used in bone-targeted drug delivery. Together, our findings have established a novel role of central regulation in bone formation and a clear link between injured neurons and osteogenitors, both in animals and clinical settings.

Project description:To facilitate the recovery process of chronic and hard-to-heal wounds novel pro-resolving treatment options are urgently needed. We investigated the pro regenerative properties of soluble CD83 (sCD83) on cutaneous wound healing, where sCD83 accelerated wound healing not only after systemic but also after topical application, which is of high therapeutic interest. Cytokine profile analyses revealed an initial upregulation of inflammatory mediators such as TNFa and IL-1b, followed by a switch towards pro-resolving factors, including YM-1 and IL-10, both expressed by tissue repair macrophages. These cells are known to mediate resolution of inflammation and stimulate wound healing processes by secretion of growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which promote vascularization as well as fibroblast and keratinocyte differentiation. In conclusion, we have found strong wound healing capacities of sCD83 beyond the previously described role in transplantation and autoimmunity. This makes sCD83 a promising candidate for the treatment of chronic- and hard-to-heal wounds

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.
