Project description:We performed gene expression profiling of P1 and P5 back and tail dermis to uncover potential explanations for the differences in HF formation at different ages and in different body sites. To generate back and tail dermis microarray from P1 mouse (C57Bl6/CBA F1), tail skin was incubated in 5mM EDTA/PBS solution at 37°C, 1h, whereas back skin was incubated in dispase-trypsin solution at 37°C, 1h. Tail and back skin dermis were separated from the epidermis with forceps, washed once in PBS and digested as described above. Single-cell suspensions were washed 3x in PBS, before cells were lysed in Trizol (Invitrogen) and RNA was purified using Qiagen RNeasy columns. RNA was extracted from triplicate mice. cDNA was amplified from purified RNA and hybridized to Affymetrix MG430.2A arrays by the Cancer Research UK Patterson Institute Affymetrix Genechip Microarray Service. Array images were produced by the Affymetrix PICR 3000 scanner and analysed as Cell files using Genespring-13X (Agilent Technologies). RMA normalization was used and the bottom twentieth-percentile of genes (i.e., the 20% of genes with the lowest expression levels) were excluded from subsequent analysis.

Project description:Fgf18 gene is strongly expressed in hair follicles of mouse dorsal skin during regressing (catagen) and resting (telogen) phases of hair cycle, but not in growth (anagen) phase. This study aims at identifying the effects of FGF18 local delivery on the anagen phase of hair cycle. To define genes affected by local delivery of FGF18 during anagen phase of hair cycle, we injected FGF18 protein subcutaneously into back skin of C3H/HeN mice on day 4 of depilation-induced anagen. As control PBS was injected in place of FGF18. After 24 h (61-d-old), total RNA was isolated from the back skin and purified to poly A RNA. The RNA samples were pooled for each group. Gene expression was analyzed by one-color analysis using single array for each group.

Project description:Papillomaviruses (PVs) are able to induce papillomas, premalignant lesions, and carcinomas in a wide variety of species. PVs are classified first based on their host and tissue tropism and then their genomic diversities. A laboratory mouse papillomavirus, MmuPV1 (formerly MusPV), naturally infects NMRI-Foxn1nu/Foxn1nu (nude; T cell deficient) mice. C57BL/6J wild-type mice were not susceptible to MmuPV1 infection; however, immunocompetent, alopecic, S/RV/Cri-ba/ba (bare) mice developed small papillomas at injection sites that regressed. NMRI-Foxn1nu and B6.Cg-Foxn1nu but not NU/J-Foxn1nu mice were susceptible to MmuPV1 infection. B6 congenic strains, but not other congenic strains carrying the same allelic mutations, that lack B- and T-cells, but not B-cells alone, were susceptible to infection, indicating that mouse strain and T-cell deficiency are critical to tumor formation. Although lesions initially observed were exophytic papillomas around the muzzle, exophytic papillomas on the tail and condylomas of the vaginal lining could be induced by experimental infections. On the dorsal skin, locally invasive, poorly differentiated tumors developed with features similar to human trichoblastomas. Transcriptome analysis revealed significant differences between the normal skin in these anatomic sites and in papillomas versus trichoblastomas. The primarily dysregulated genes involved molecular pathways associated with cancer, cellular development, cellular growth and proliferation, cell morphology, and connective tissue development and function. Surprisingly, few of the genes commonly associated with basal cell carcinoma or squamous cells carcinoma were dramatically dysregulated. To determine if there were transcriptome differences between papillomas on the tail skin compared to invasive trichoblastomas on the dorsal skin, tumors from the tail and dorsal skin from 3 B6.Cg-Foxn1nu/Foxn1nu mice and unaffected skin from the tail or contra-lateral (dorsal skin) were compared using the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 1.0 ST Array. Concurrently, a matched study was done at the University of Louisville comparing facial (muzzle) papillomas and dorsal skin trichoblastomas to respective unaffected contralateral skin.

Project description:Gene expression in self-renewing epithelial tissues is controlled by cis- and trans-activating regulatory factors that mediate responses to exogenous agents capable of causing tissue damage, infection, inflammation, or tumorigenesis. We used network construction methods to analyze the genetic architecture of gene expression in normal mouse skin in a cross between tumor-susceptible Mus musculus and tumor-resistant Mus spretus. We demonstrate that gene expression motifs representing different constituent cell types within the skin such as hair follicle cells, haematopoietic cells, and melanocytes are under separate genetic control. Motifs associated with inflammation, epidermal barrier function and proliferation are differentially regulated in mice susceptible or resistant to tumor development. The intestinal stem cell marker Lgr5 is identified as a candidate master regulator of hair follicle gene expression, and the Vitamin D receptor (Vdr) links epidermal barrier function, inflammation, and tumor susceptibility. Keywords: Expression Quantitative Trait Loci A backcross was generated using male Mus spretus and female FVB/N mice; female F1 hybrids were mated with male FVB/N mice. Seventy-one backcross mice (8-12 weeks old) received a single dose of DMBA (25 µg per mouse in 200 µl acetone). Starting one week after the initiation tumors were promoted with TPA (200 µl of 10-4 M solution in acetone) twice weekly for 20 weeks. Initiation and promotion were performed on doral back skin. Normal tail skin was snap frozen when the animals were sacrificed. Tail epidermis from completely untreated Spretus, FVB, and Spretus x FVB F1 mice was also analyzed.

Project description:Background: Germline polymorphisms can influence gene expression networks in normal mammalian tissues and can affect disease susceptibility. We and others have shown that analysis of this genetic architecture can identify single genes and whole pathways that influence complex traits including inflammation and cancer susceptibility. Whether germline variants affect gene expression in tumors which have undergone somatic alterations, and the extent to which these variants influence tumor progression, is unknown. Results: Using an integrated linkage and genomic analysis of a mouse model of skin cancer that produces both benign tumors and malignant carcinomas, we document major changes in germline control of gene expression during skin tumor development resulting from cell selection, somatic genetic events, and changes in the tumor microenvironment. The number of significant expression Quantitative Trait Loci (eQTLs) is progressively reduced in benign and malignant skin tumors when compared to normal skin. However, novel tumor-specific eQTLs are detected for several genes associated with tumor susceptibility, including Interleukin 18, Granzyme E, Sprouty homolog 2, and MAP kinase kinase 4. Conclusions: We conclude that the genetic architecture is substantially altered in tumors, and that eQTL analysis of tumors can identify host factors that influence the tumor microenvironment, MAP kinase signaling, and cancer susceptibility. A backcross was generated using male Mus spretus and female FVB/N mice; female F1 hybrids were mated with male FVB/N mice. Backcross mice (8-12 weeks old) received a single dose of DMBA (25 µg per mouse in 200 µl acetone). Starting one week after the initiation tumors were promoted with TPA (200 µl of 10-4 M solution in acetone) twice weekly for 20 weeks. Initiation and promotion were performed on doral back skin. DNA from 62 Carcinomas and matched untreated tails (used for normal DNA comparison) was obtained from tissue that was snap frozen when animals were sacrificed.

Project description:Germline polymorphisms influence gene expression networks in normal mammalian tissues. Analysis of this genetic architecture can identify single genes and whole pathways that influence to complex traits including inflammation and cancer susceptibility. Changes in the genetic architecture during the development of benign and malignant tumours have not been investigated. Here, we document major changes in germline control of gene expression during skin tumour development as a consequence of cell selection, somatic genetic events, and changes in tumour microenvironment. Immune response genes such as Interleukin 18 and Granzyme E are under germline control in tumours but not in normal skin. Gene expression networks linked to tumour susceptibility and hair follicle stem cell markers in normal skin undergo significant reorganization during tumour progression. Our data highlight opposing roles of Interleukin-1 signaling networks in tumour susceptibility and tumour progression and have implications for the development of chemopreventive strategies to reduce cancer incidence. Skin tumors were induced on dorsal back skin from a Mus spretus / Mus musculus backcross ([SPRET/Ei X FVB/N] X FVB/N) mice by treatment of dorsal back skin with dimethyl benzanthracene (DMBA) and tetradecanoyl-phorbol acetate (TPA). This treatment induced multiple benign papillomas as well as malignant squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and spindle cell carcinomas. Gene expression analysis was performed on mRNA extracted from 68 papillomas: two papillomas from each of 31 FVBBX mice and a single papilloma from six additional FVBBX mice. Papillomas were harvested when mice were sacrificed due to presence of a carcinoma or termination of the experiment.

Project description:Background: Skin aging is associated with intrinsic processes that compromise structure of the extracellular matrix while promoting loss of functional and regenerative capacity. These processes are accompanied by a large-scale shift in gene expression, but underlying mechanisms are not understood and conservation of these mechanisms between humans and mice is uncertain. Results: We used genome-wide expression profiling to investigate the aging skin transcriptome. In humans, age-related shifts in gene expression were sex-specific. In females, aging increased expression of transcripts associated with T-cells, B-cells and dendritic cells, and decreased expression of genes in regions with elevated Zeb1, AP-2 and YY1 motif density. In males, however, these effects were contrasting or absent. When age-associated gene expression patterns in human skin were compared to those in tail skin from CB6F1 mice, overall human-mouse correspondence was weak. Moreover, inflammatory gene expression patterns were not induced with aging of mouse tail skin, and well-known aging biomarkers were in fact decreased (e.g., Clec7a, Lyz1 and Lyz2). These unexpected patterns and weak human-mouse correspondence may be due to decreased abundance of antigen presenting cells in mouse tail skin with age. Conclusions: Aging is generally associated with a pro-inflammatory state, but we have identified an exception to this pattern with aging of CB6F1 mouse tail skin. Aging therefore does not uniformly heighten inflammatory status across all mouse tissues. Furthermore, we identified both intercellular and intracellular mechanisms of transcriptome aging, including those that are sex- and species-specific. We used Affymetrix microarrays to evaluate genome-wide expression in tail skin from young (5 month) and old (30 month) CB6F1 mice (males and females). Genome-wide expression was evaluated in tail skin from young (5 months) and old (30 months) CB6F1 mice of both sexes. Samples were collected simultaneously but RNA samples were processed in two separate batches.

Project description:The morphology and the behavior of skin and oral tissue keratinocytes are different. One significant dissimilarity between the two sites is the response to injury. Oral and skin keratinocytes have intrinsic differences in the response to injury and such differences are reflected in gene expression profiles. We used microarrays to investigate differences in global gene expression patterns between baseline skin and oral epithelium sheets without their underlying connective tissue. Paired skin and oral epithelium was separated from the dermis for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Skin epidermal tissues were obtained from the tail of mice and oral epidermal tissues were obtained from the hard palate. Enzymatically isolated epithelium was used for analysis.
