Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in the filaggrin gene are heavily associated with the incidence and severity of atopic dermatitis. Moreover, filaggrin insufficiency in epidermal keratinocytes can lead to persistent allergic inflammation and an associated immune response suggesting a role for this protein in regulation of immunity. Here, we investigate how filaggrin insufficiency affects the gene expression pattern in a filaggrin-insufficient (shFLG) keratinocyte cell line HaCaT in response to stimulation with various inflammatory mediators and allergens.

Project description:Filaggrin (FLG) is a key structural protein expressed in epidermal keratinocytes. Mutations in the filaggrin gene (FLG) are strongly linked to atopic dermatitis (AD) and allergic inflammation occurring later in life at distant body locations in AD patients. Keratinocytes secrete exosomes, small, lipid-rich membrane vesicles to communicate with distant cells, including within the immune system. The FLG gene was silenced in the HaCaT keratinocyte cell line by shRNA delivered using a lentiviral vector. HaCaT cells transduced with scrambled shRNA were used as a control.

Project description:FGFs are key orchestrators of development, tissue homeostasis and repair. FGFR deficiency in mouse keratinocytes causes an inflammatory skin phenotype resembling atopic dermatitis (AD). To determine the human relevance of this finding, we generated human keratinocytes with a CRISPR/Cas9-induced knockout of FGFR2. Loss of this receptor promoted the expression of interferon-stimulated genes and other genes involved in inflammation under homeostatic conditions and in particular in response to inflammatory mediators without affecting cell viability. Bioinformatics analyses and functional studies showed strong down-regulation of FGFR2 expression in cultured keratinocytes exposed to various pro-inflammatory stimuli and in keratinocytes of lesional AD skin, which is likely to further aggravate the inflammatory phenotype. These results reveal a key function of FGFR2 in human keratinocytes in the suppression of skin inflammation and suggests a role of FGFR2 down-regulation in AD pathogenesis.

Project description:The epidermis, outermost layer of the skin, forms a barrier and is involved in innate and adaptive immunity in an organism. Keratinocytes participate in all these three protective processes. However, a regulator of keratinocyte protective responses against external dangers and stresses remains elusive. We found that upregulation of the orphan gene 2610528A11Rik was a common factor in the skin of mice with several types of inflammation. In the human epidermis, peptide expression of G protein-coupled receptor 15 ligand (GPR15L), encoded by the human ortholog C10orf99, was highly induced in the lesional skin of patients with atopic dermatitis or psoriasis. C10orf99 gene transfection into normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) induced the expression of inflammatory mediators and reduced the expression of barrier-related genes. Gene ontology analyses showed its association with translation, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), mitochondria, and lipid metabolism. Treatment with GPR15L reduced the expression levels of filaggrin and loricrin in human keratinocyte 3D cultures. Instead, their expression levels in mouse primary cultured keratinocytes did not show significant differences between the wild-type and 2610528A11Rik deficient keratinocytes. Lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of Il1b and Il6 was less in 2610528A11Rik deficient mouse keratinocytes than in wild-type, and imiquimod-induced psoriatic dermatitis was blunted in 2610528A11Rik deficient mice. Furthermore, repetitive subcutaneous injection of GPR15L in mouse ears induced skin inflammation in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that C10orf99/GPR15L is a primary inducible regulator that reduces the barrier formation and induces the inflammatory response of keratinocytes.

Project description:Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease. Keratinocytes (KCs) are important effector cells that can recruit inflammatory cells by releasing inflammatory factors and chemokines to promote the inflammatory cascade in psoriasis. However, the mechanism underlying KC activation in psoriasis remains unclear. Livin is an inhibitor of apoptotic proteins and its expression can directly affect the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells. Livin expression has been reported to be significantly increased in the lesions of patients with psoriasis; however, its specific role in KC activation has not yet been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate whether livin regulates KC activation and causes the release of inflammatory mediators. The expression levels of livin in patients with psoriasis, an imiquimod (IMQ) mouse model, and M5-treated HaCaT cells were determined via immunofluorescence staining, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and western blotting. We constructed livin knockdown (Knockdown-HaCaT) and negative control (NC-HaCaT) cells using human immunodeficiency virus-1-based lentiviral vectors to study the function of livin in KCs via RNA-sequencing and proteomics analysis. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses were performed. Moreover, the effect of livin expression on the release of inflammatory mediators in KCs was verified using ELISA.

Project description:We used microarray analysis to investigate if keratinocytes excert an immuno-inflammatory response towards streptococcal M1 protein. Keratinocytes respond to M1 protein by activating pathways to induce the production of inflammatory signaltransducers, AP-1 and NFkB transcription factor subunits, together with inflammatory mediators such as IL-8, CCL20 and IL-1 family proteins etc.

Project description:In this study we aim to determine the role of IL-4/STAT6 in gene expression in human keratinocytes using RNA-sequencing approach. Human keratinocytes were cultured for 2 or 5 days with calcium chloride to induce terminal differentiation as determined by the expression of epidermal differentiation complex genes. The cells were then stimulated with IL-4 for 3 and 24 hours, or along the 5 days culture period. We observed that IL-4 inhibits fully differentiation of keratinocytes, induces genes involved with production of inflammatory mediators, and reduces the healing capacity of human keratinocytes. Moreover, STAT6 controlled important genes involved with calcium binding, inflammation and epidermis development. Human keratinocytes were differentiated with calcium chloride for 2 days and incubated with media alone or 20ng/ml of recombinant human IL-4 for 3 and 24 hours. Human keratinocytes were differentiated with calcium chloride for 5 days with or wihout recombinant human IL-4 (20ng/ml). Keratinocytes transfected with control or STAT6 siRNA were differentiated with calcium chloride for 2 days and then stimulated with recombinant huma IL-4 for 24 hours.

Project description:Current diagnostics for allergies, such as skin prick and radioallergosorbent tests, do not allow for inexpensive, high-throughput screening of patients. Additionally, extracts used in these methods are made from washed pollen that lacks pollen surface materials that may contain allergens. We sought to develop a high-throughput assay to rapidly measure allergen-specific IgE levels in sera and to explore the relative allergenicity of different pollen fractions (i.e. surface, cytoplasmic, commercial extracts). To do this, we generated a protein microarray containing surface, cytoplasmic, and commercial extracts from 22 pollen species, commercial extracts from nine non-pollen allergens, and five recombinant allergenic proteins. Arrays were incubated with <25uL of serum from 176 individuals and bound IgE was detected by indirect immunofluorescence, providing a high-throughput measurement of IgE levels.
