Project description:Objective: We explored the patterns of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with non-segmental vitiligo. Methods: We used high-throughput RNA sequencing technology to generate sequence data from five patients with non-segmental vitiligo alongside five normal healthy individuals, and then performed bioinformatics analyses to detect the differential expression of lncRNA in PBMCs. Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway analyses were performed for functional annotation, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to verify gene expression. Target miRNAs and mRNAs of differentially expressed lncRNAs were predicted using bioinformatics analysis. Results: A total of 292 lncRNAs were differentially expressed in non-segmental vitiligo (fold change≥2.0, P<0.05), of which 171 were upregulated and 121 were downregulated. Six differentially expressed lncRNAs were selected , namely ENST00000460164.1, ENST00000393264.2, NR-046211.1, NR-135491.1, NR-135320.1, and ENST00000381108.3, for validation by qRT-PCR. The results showed that ENST00000460164.1 and NR-046211.1 were highly expressed in PBMCs of non-segmental vitiligo. An lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network containing two lncRNAs, 17 miRNAs, and 223 mRNAs was constructed. Conclusion: Our results revealed patterns of differentially expressed lncRNAs in the PBMCs of non-segmental vitiligo individuals. ENST00000460164.1, and NR-046211.1 may be potential biomarkers and drug targets for the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo.

Project description:Vitiligo is a common autoimmune depigmented dermatology due to the destruction of melanocytes. Much evidence suggests that vitiligo is associated with systemic immune activation. Previous studies have focused on immune cell infiltration in and around lesion areas, while few studies have investigated the cell types and function of circulating immune cells in peripheral blood. We collected peripheral blood from five patients with progressive non-segmental vitiligo (PV) and three healthy controls (HC).Single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq) is used to investigate the mechanisms of peripheral immune responses in vitiligo patients.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Homo sapiens inflammatory skin diseases (whole skin biospies): Psoriasis (Pso), vs Atopic Dermatitis (AD) vs Lichen planus (Li), vs Contact Eczema (KE), vs Healthy control (KO) In recent years, different genes and proteins have been highlighted as potential biomarkers for psoriasis, one of the most common inflammatory skin diseases worldwide. However, most of these markers are not psoriasis-specific but also found in other inflammatory disorders. We performed an unsupervised cluster analysis of gene expression profiles in 150 psoriasis patients and other inflammatory skin diseases (atopic dermatitis, lichen planus, contact eczema, and healthy controls). We identified a cluster of IL-17/TNFα-associated genes specifically expressed in psoriasis, among which IL-36γ was the most outstanding marker. In subsequent immunohistological analyses IL-36γ was confirmed to be expressed in psoriasis lesions only. IL-36γ peripheral blood serum levels were found to be closely associated with disease activity, and they decreased after anti-TNFα-treatment. Furthermore, IL-36γ immunohistochemistry was found to be a helpful marker in the histological differential diagnosis between psoriasis and eczema in diagnostically challenging cases. These features highlight IL-36γ as a valuable biomarker in psoriasis patients, both for diagnostic purposes and measurement of disease activity during the clinical course. Furthermore, IL-36γ might also provide a future drug target, due to its potential amplifier role in TNFα- and IL-17 pathways in psoriatic skin inflammation.

Project description:We have sequenced miRNA libraries from human embryonic, neural and foetal mesenchymal stem cells. We report that the majority of miRNA genes encode mature isomers that vary in size by one or more bases at the 3’ and/or 5’ end of the miRNA. Northern blotting for individual miRNAs showed that the proportions of isomiRs expressed by a single miRNA gene often differ between cell and tissue types. IsomiRs were readily co-immunoprecipitated with Argonaute proteins in vivo and were active in luciferase assays, indicating that they are functional. Bioinformatics analysis predicts substantial differences in targeting between miRNAs with minor 5’ differences and in support of this we report that a 5’ isomiR-9-1 gained the ability to inhibit the expression of DNMT3B and NCAM2 but lost the ability to inhibit CDH1 in vitro. This result was confirmed by the use of isomiR-specific sponges. Our analysis of the miRGator database indicates that a small percentage of human miRNA genes express isomiRs as the dominant transcript in certain cell types and analysis of miRBase shows that 5’ isomiRs have replaced canonical miRNAs many times during evolution. This strongly indicates that isomiRs are of functional importance and have contributed to the evolution of miRNA genes
