Project description:Human hair follicles undergo repetitive cycles of growth throughout their lifetime. During the hair follicle cycle, functional and structural changes occur within the surrounding skin environment. However, skin that experienced a deep injury lacks cycling hair follicles and turns into a mass of unremodelled scar tissue. We hypothesise that re-introducing cycling hair follicles into human scars will stimulate skin remodelling improving fibrotic tissue. To determine the transcriptional events underlying remodelling of scar dermis after hair follicle transplantation, we used Affymetrix microarrays to perform profiling of scar dermis before (0 mo), and at three time points after hair transplantation transplantation: 2, 4, and 6 months.

Project description:It is well accepted that elevated mechanical tension of the skin surrounding a healing wound stimulates a fibrotic cascade of events and contributes to an increased size of scars. A laxity paradox in the field of hair transplantation describes a phenomenon opposing this view. During Strip Follicular Unit Transplantation (Strip FUT), surgeons remove a strip of scalp skin (approximately 5 cm x 10 cm, depending on the number of hair follicles required) from the occipital scalp, which is then used to harvest hair follicles that will be transplanted into the balding frontal scalp. Most patients with normal scalp skin laxity heal with narrow normotrophic scars, while a small number of patients (14%) with very loose scalp skin, and so low residual skin tension, heal with post operating scar widening (4 - 12 mm). These scars, referred to as stretched scars in the hair transplantation field, often require revision surgery or secondary hair grafting into the scar. We hypothesise that stretched scars present a unique transcriptional signature different from other types of scars. To determine the gene expression profile of stretched scars, we used Affymetrix microarrays to perform profiling of fibrotic dermis and the surrounding patient-matched healthy dermis.

Project description:Global expression analysis of neural crest-like skin-derived precursors (SKPs) and Sox2-positive follicle dermal cells that SKPs originate from. In spite of the remarkable regenerative capacity of mammalian skin, an adult dermal stem cell has not yet been identified. Here, we provide evidence that SKPs, multipotent neural crest-like skin-derived precursors, represent an adult dermal stem cell. When transplanted into adult skin, SKPs can reconstitute the adult dermis, contribute to dermal wound-healing, home to a hair follicle niche, and instruct epidermal cells to make hair follicles. Hair follicle-derived SKPs self-renew, maintain their multipotency, and serially reconstitute hair follicles. The endogenous origin of SKPs are Sox2-positive follicle dermal cells that share a similar global gene expression profile with SKPs. These endogenous cells home back to their follicle niche, induce hair follicle morphogenesis, and differentiate into neural and dermal progeny. Hair follicle-associated dermal cells will move out of their niche to contribute to dermal maintenance and wound-healing. These studies therefore identify a dermal stem cell, and provide a biological rationale for the presence of a multipotent precursor within adult dermis, findings with important therapeutic implications.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that microRNAs may play important roles in regulating self-renewal and differentiation in mammalian stem cells (SCs). Here, we explore this issue in skin. We first characterize microRNA expression profiles of skin SCs versus their committed proliferative progenies and identify a microRNA subset associating with “stemness”. Of these, miR-125b is dramatically downregulated in early SC-progeny. We engineer an inducible mice system and show that when miR-125b is sustained in SC-progenies, tissue balance is reversibly skewed towards stemness at the expense of epidermal, oil-gland and HF differentiation. Using gain-and-loss of function in vitro, we further implicate miR-125b as a repressor of SC differentiation. In vivo, transcripts repressed upon miR-125b induction are enriched >700% for predicted miR-125b targets normally downregulated upon SC-lineage commitment. We verify some of these miR-125b targets, and show that Blimp1 and VDR in particular can account for many tissue imbalances we see when miR-125b is deregulated. We used microarrays to compare the global gene expression profile of early bulge stem cells and non bulge ORS cells. Hair follicle cells were isolated from P4 Backskin of K14-RFP/Sox9-EGFP double transgenic mice as following: interfollicular epidermis sheet was pealed from hair follicle & dermis after dispase treatment. The hair follicle & dermis were first digested by collagenase (Sigma). Intact hair follicles were separated from dermal cells by low speed spinning (20g). The hair follicles were then digested by Trypsin and filtered by 40 µm cell strainers. The isolated hair follicle cells were FACS sorted. Dead cells and large differentiated cells were excluded based on DAPI and side scattering. Early bulge cells were gated as GFPHi,RFPHi. Non-bulge ORS cells were gated as GFP-, RFPHi.

Project description:We found dermal Hh activation is sufficient to induce hair follicle neogenesis in wounded skin. We analyzed gene expression profile at single cell level in the dermis of SM22-Tomato (control) and SM22-SmoM2/Tomato (Hh activation in dermis).

Project description:β-catenin signaling is required for hair follicle development, but it is unknown whether it is sufficient to activate expression of hair follicle genes in embryonic skin. To address this we profiled gene expression in dermis from E15.5 KRT14-Cre Ctnnb1(Ex3)fl/+ embryos carrying an activating mutation in epithelial beta-catenin, and control littermate embryos.

To address this we profiled gene expression in dermis from E15.5 KRT14-Cre Ctnnb1(Ex3)fl/+ embryos carrying an activating mutation in epithelial beta-catenin, and control littermate embryos. Experiment Overall Design: Total dermal RNA from two KRT14-Cre Ctnnb1(Ex3)fl/+ and two control littermate E15.5 embryos was hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome MOE430 2.0 oligonucleotide microarrays. Experiment Overall Design: Appended below is Table S2: Full list of differentially expressed genes in KRT14-Cre Ctnnb1(Ex3)fl/+ mutant compared with control littermate dermis at E15.5, including normalization and filter parameters. Fold change, listed in the second column, gives the ratio of normalized mutant : control transcript levels.
