Project description:There is a controversy surrounding the existence of palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) and palmoplantar pustular psoriasis (PPPP) as separate clinical entities or as variants of the same clinical entity. We used gene expression microarray to compare gene expression in PPP and PPPP. PPP and PPPP could not be differentiated using gene expression microarray suggesting that they are not distinct clinical entities. Increased expression of GPRIN1, and ADAM23 in keratinocytes suggests that these proteins could be new therapeutic targets for PPP/PPPP. Skin biopsies from subjects with PPP (3), PPPP (6), psoriasis vulgaris (10) and acral skin from normal subjects (7) were analyzed using gene expression microarray. Principal component analysis showed that PPP and PPPP were different from psoriasis vulgaris and normal acral skin. However gene expression of PPP and PPPP clustered together and could not be used to differentiate PPP from PPPP. Gene-wise comparison between PPP and PPPP found no gene to be differentially expressed with a false discovery rate lower than 0.6. Surprisingly we found a higher expression of several genes involved in neural pathways (e.g. GPRIN and ADAM23) in PPP/PPPP as compared to psoriasis vulgaris and normal acral skin. Immunohistochemistry confirmed those findings and showed a keratinocyte localization for those proteins.

Project description:In this study, our aim was to investigate the potential inflammatory pathways underlining PV, PPPP, and NPPP, through histologic and immunohistochemical characterization of the inflammation and gene expression profiling in skin samples of participants with PPPP, NPPP, PV (without palmo-plantar involvement), and healthy controls.

Project description:It has long been recognized that anatomic location is an important feature for defining distinct subtypes of plaque psoriasis. However, little is known about the molecular differences between scalp, palmoplantar, and conventional plaque psoriasis. To investigate the molecular heterogeneity of these psoriasis subtypes, we performed RNA-seq and flow cytometry on skin samples from individuals with scalp, palmoplantar, and conventional plaque psoriasis, along with samples from healthy control patients. We performed differential expression analysis and network analysis using weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA). Our analysis revealed a core set of 763 differentially expressed genes common to all sub-types of psoriasis. In contrast, we identified 605, 632, and 262 genes uniquely differentially expressed in conventional, scalp, and palmoplantar psoriasis, respectively. WGCNA and pathway analysis revealed biological processes for the core genes as well as subtype-specific genes. Flow cytometry analysis revealed a shared increase in the percentage of CD4+ T regulatory cells in all psoriasis subtypes relative to controls, whereas distinct psoriasis subtypes displayed differences in IL-17A, IFN-gamma, and IL-22 production. This work reveals the molecular heterogeneity of plaque psoriasis and identifies subtype-specific signaling pathways that will aid in the development of therapy that is appropriate for each subtype of plaque psoriasis.

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in the IL36RN gene encoding IL-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36RA) cause familial generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP), which sometimes begins shortly after birth and is difficult to treat, and its effects on the epidermis are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of IL-36 receptor agonists in the epidermal formation of GPP. In this study, we found that IL-36 receptor agonists, especially mature IL-36γ, stimulate IL-8 and proIL-36γ production in the epidermis, while down-regulating the genes encoding epidermal cornified envelope-related proteins such as corneodesmosin. IL-36 receptor antagonists and monoclonal anti-IL-36γ antibodies counteract the effect of mature IL-36γ on corneodesmosin in keratinocytes in a dose-dependent manner. In the epidermis of generalized pustular psoriasis patients with IL36RN loss-of-function mutations, proIL-36γ is overproduced in the epidermis and corneodesmosin protein expression is markedly decreased in the region of giant subcorneal pustules called Kogoj’s spongiform pustules with high neutrophil infiltration. IL-8 induced by mature IL-36γ induces several neutrophils in the epidermis, and the newly produced proIL-36γ is cleaved to the mature form by neutrophil proteases. This newly produced mature IL-36γ was predicted to further suppress the gene expression of the granulosa-stratum-associated protein, corneodesmosin, leading to significant stratum corneum exfoliation and formation of giant subcorneal pustules. Overall, our results elucidate the mechanism underlying the formation of Kogoj’s spongiform pustules in generalized pustular psoriasis.

Project description:Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare, debilitating, and often life-threatening inflammatory disease characterized by episodic infiltration of neutrophils into the skin, pustule development, and systemic inflammation, which can manifest in the presence or absence of chronic plaque psoriasis (PV). Current treatments are unsatisfactory thus a better understanding the pathogenesis of GPP is warranted. To assess the pathophysiological differences between GPP and PV we performed a gene expression study on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsies of GPP (n=30) and PV (n=12) lesions and healthy control (n=20) skin. Compared with healthy skin, GPP lesions yielded 365 and PV 898 differentially expressed genes respectively, with 190 upregulated in both diseases. We detected higher expression of IL-1 and IL-36 cytokines in GPP lesions compared with PV, and this occurred proximal to neutrophils. We show both activated neutrophils and isolated neutrophil proteases can activate IL-36. Diverging from the Th1/Th17 pathophysiology of PV, significantly fewer IL23A, IL17A, IFNG, CXCL9, CXCL10 and MX1 transcripts were detected in GPP lesions. Our data indicate a level of sustained activation of IL-1 and IL-36 in GPP, inducing neutrophil chemokine expression, infiltration and pustule formation, suggesting that the IL-1 and IL-36 inflammatory axes are the main drivers of disease pathology in GPP.

Project description:Psoriasis is chronic skin disease and an important health concern. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has shown great promise in the treatment of psoriasis. However, the correlation between TCM Syndromes and genomics of psoriasis has not been evaluated. Here, we analyzed gene expression profiling of monocytes from psoriasis vulgaris patients with different TCM syndrome types to reveal the molecular basis of different psoriasis syndromes. Of the 62 cases of psoriasis vulgaris recruited, 16, 23, and 23 cases were of blood-heat syndrome, blood stasis syndrome, and blood-dryness syndrome, respectively; 10 healthy controls were recruited as controls. Affymertix's Gene Chip ®clariom D gene chip was used to detect the gene expression profile of peripheral blood monocytes collected from recruited individuals. Compared with the healthy control group, 1570 genes were up-regulated and 977 genes were down-regulated in the psoriasis vulgaris patients group; 798 genes and 108 genes were up- and down-regulated in the blood-heat syndrome group respectively; 319 and 433 genes were up- and down-regulated in the blood-dryness syndrome group, respectively; and 502 and 179 genes were up-and down-regulated in the blood-stasis syndrome group. Our analyses indicated not only common differential genes and pathways between psoriasis syndrome groups and healthy controls, but also syndrome-specific genes and pathways. The results of this study link the three syndromes at the gene level and will be useful for clarifying the molecular basis of TCM syndromes of psoriasis.

Project description:To identify the gene expression in the peripheral edge of the lesional (PE) skin of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods: Full-thickness skin biopsies of PE skin and uninvolved skin were taken from psoriasis patients. Transcriptomic profiling was constructed by high-throughput next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. Result: A total of 1,202 DEGs were identified. Of these, 653 (54%) were upregulated and 549 (46%) were downregulated. These DEGs might play a pivotal role in psoriasis pathogenesis. This study accelerates psoriasis-associated gene discovery in the whole picture of PE skin.
