Project description:Scarring is a normal outcome of the wound healing program, but excessive secretion of ECM proteins such as collagen can lead to fibrosis and compromise tissue function. Despite the widespread occurrence of fibrosis, effective therapies are lacking. A promising approach would be to limit the amount of collagen released from hyperactive fibroblasts. We designed membrane permeant-peptide inhibitors that specifically target and disrupt the primary interface between TANGO1 and cTAGE5, an interaction that is required for collagen export from endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES). Dissociation of the TANGO1 and cTAGE5 complex leads to their partial degradation and a consequent inhibition in the secretion of several ECM components, including collagens. Peptide inhibitor treatment in zebrafish resulted in altered tissue architecture and reduced granulation tissue formation during cutaneous wound healing. The inhibitors reduced secretion of several ECM proteins, including collagens, fibrillin and fibronectin in human dermal fibroblasts and in cells obtained from patients with a generalized fibrotic disease (scleroderma). Taken together, this targeted interference in the TANGO1-cTAGE5 binding interface enables therapeutic modulation of ERES function in ECM hypersecretion, during wound healing and fibrotic processes.

Project description:Renal scarring is a serious complication of chronic pyelonephritis due to vesicoureteral reflux, and requires specific biomarker for indication of early intervention. We investigated global expression profile of kidney during renal scarring formation using rat pyelonephritis model. An inoculum of the DS-17 strain Escherchia coli was injected directly into renal cortex of Wister rat. Histologically, renal scarring developed during 3 and 4 weeks after injection. The time course expression profile of approximately 20,500 genes was analyzed using high density oligonucleotide microarray followed by validation using real time RT-PCR. Most of up-regulated genes during this experimental renal scarring were associated with immune and defense response, including cytokines, chemokines, their receptors, complements, and adhesion molecules as well as proteins related to extra cellular matrix. These genes were up-regulated as early as 1 week after injection when histological examination did not show fibrotic change yet, peaked at 2 weeks and gradually decreased thereafter. However, a subset of cytokine genes is persistently activated even in 6 weeks after the injection, which are involved in TGF-β related tissue regeneration pathway or IL-1β related pathway. The products of these genes may potentially be the source of novel non-invasive diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers for renal scarring. Keywords: renal scarring, TGF-β , IL-1β

Project description:Full thickness and deep partial thickness burn injuries heal by scarring. There are several mechanisms thought to be essential for the development of burn scars, but a challenge to studying the skin response to burn injury is that there are few animal models of burn scarring that are either clinically similar to human burn scars or are practical for most investigators to use. The purpose of this study was to examine the changes in RNA expression in human skin to burn injury. This was done by comparing pre-injury tissue from otherwise healthy adults undergoing aesthetic scarification created by branding with a hot metal object to serial samples of untreated wounds in the same subjects.

Project description:Regeneration is the “holy grail” of tissue repair, but skin injury typically yields fibrotic, non-functional scars. Developing pro-regenerative therapies requires rigorous understanding of the molecular progression from injury to fibrosis or regeneration. Here, we report the divergent molecular events driving skin wound cells toward either scarring or regenerative fates. We profile scarring versus YAP inhibition-induced wound regeneration at the transcriptional (single-cell RNA-sequencing), protein (timsTOF proteomics), and tissue (extracellular matrix ultrastructural analysis) levels. Using cell surface barcoding, we integrate these data to reveal fibrotic and regenerative “molecular trajectories” of healing. We show that disrupting YAP mechanical signaling yields regenerative repair orchestrated by fibroblasts with activated Trps1 and Wnt signaling. Finally, by performing in vivo gene knockdown and overexpression in wounds, we identify Trps1 as a key regulatory gene that is necessary and partially sufficient for wound regeneration. Our findings serve as a multimodal map of wound regeneration and could have therapeutic implications for pathologic fibroses.

Project description:Hypertrophic skin scarring following dermal injury causes extreme pain and psychological trauma for patients. Unfortuately, we do not have effective treatments to prevent or reverse skin scarring. Using RNA and ATAC sequencing of mouse and human fibroblasts, we show that JUN expressing fibroblasts are responsible for skin scarring by regulating CD36 expression. In summary, we show that CD36 antagonism by represent a therapeutic target to overcome JUN hypertrophic skin scarring.

Project description:Injury in mammals induces a connective tissue response to either regenerate as before, or to scar. The fibroblastic actions and mechanisms that underlie these connective tissue responses remain obscure, as direct observation in animals is too difficult and current assays do not faithfully reproduce physiology. Here, we developed a skin explant technique termed scar-in-a-dish (SCAD) that faithfully recapitulates uniform scars with contraction and reveals how scarring occurs in unprecedented detail. By growing mouse SCADs, with a traceable scar-progenitor fibroblast lineage, we observed previously unseen intercellular connections form between scar-progenitors that then collectively swarm into the nascent wound in highly regular periodic movements that progressively contract the skin and form scars. Swarming is exclusive to scar progenitors and absent from oral cavity fibroblasts that regenerate scarless. By testing a panel of adhesion molecules that might instigate intercellular connections, we found swarming was induced by the upregulation of N-cadherin in scar progenitors. Impeding N-cadherin binding inhibited swarming and contraction, and led to reduced scarring in SCAD and in mice. Blocking N-cadherin and scar-progenitor swarming thus provides a novel therapeutic space to curtail pathological fibrotic responses across a range of medical settings.

Project description:We developed an on-slide decellularization approach to generate acellular extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds that can be repopulated with various cell types to interrogate cell-ECM interactions. Using this platform, we investigated whether fibrotic ECM scarring affected human skeletal muscle progenitor cell (SMPC) functions that are essential for myoregeneration. SMPCs exhibited robust adhesion, motility, and differentiation on healthy muscle-derived myoscaffolds. All SPMC interactions with fibrotic myoscaffolds from dystrophic muscle were severely blunted including reduced motility rate and migration. Furthermore, SMPCs were unable to remodel laminin dense fibrotic scars within diseased myoscaffolds. Proteomics and structural analysis revealed that excessive collagen deposition alone is not pathological, and can be compensatory, as revealed by overexpression of sarcospan and its associated ECM receptors in dystrophic muscle. Our in vivo data also supported that ECM remodeling is important for SMPC engraftment and that fibrotic scars may represent one barrier to efficient cell therapy.

Project description:Trachoma is a poorly understood immuno-fibrogenic disease process, initiated by Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct). Differences in conjunctival gene expression profiles between Tanzanians with trachomatous conjunctival scarring (with (TSI) and without (TS) inflammation) and controls (C) were investigated to identify relevant host responses. Tarsal conjunctival swab samples were collected for RNA isolation and Ct PCR. Transcriptome-wide microarray experiments were conducted on 41 samples (TSI 13, TS 15, C14). Cases had enrichment in proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines (IL1B, IL8, CXCL5, CCL20); Matrix metalloprotienases (MMP7, MMP9, MMP12); components of the cornified envelope / squamous metaplasia (SPRR2a, SPRR2F). Case - control study. Conjunctival swab samples were collected from people with trachomatious conjunctival scarring with (TSI) and without (TS) clinically visable inflammation compared to normal controls (C). Total RNA extracted and analysed on the Illumina WG-6 platrom. Additional extensive qRT-PCR work done on a large set of case-control pairs.
