Mature B cells accelerate wound healing after acute and chronic diabetic skin lesions.

ABSTRACT: Chronic wounds affect 12-15% of patients with diabetes and are associated with a drastic decrease in their quality of life. Here, we demonstrate that purified mature naive B220+ /CD19+ /IgM+ /IgD+ B cells improve healing of acute and diabetic murine wounds after a single topical application. B cell treatment significantly accelerated acute wound closure by 2-3 days in wild-type mice and 5-6 days in obese diabetic mice. The treatment led to full closure in 43% of chronic diabetic wounds, as compared to only 5% in saline-treated controls. Applying equivalent numbers of T cells or disrupted B cells failed to reproduce these effects, indicating that live B cells mediated pro-healing responses. Topically applied B cell treatment was associated with significantly reduced scar size, increased collagen deposition and maturation, enhanced angiogenesis, and increased nerve growth into and under the healing wound. ?-III tubulin+ nerve endings in scars of wounds treated acutely with B cells showed increased relative expression of growth-associated protein 43. The improved healing associated with B cell treatment was supported by significantly increased fibroblast proliferation and decreased apoptosis in the wound bed and edges, altered kinetics of neutrophil infiltration, as well as an increase in TGF-? and a significant reduction in MMP2 expression in wound granulation tissue. Our findings indicate that the timeline and efficacy of wound healing can be experimentally manipulated through the direct application of mature, naive B cells, which effectively modify the balance of mature immune cell populations within the wound microenvironment and accelerate the healing process.

Project description:BackgroundReactive oxygen species (ROS) are increased in diabetic conditions and play a causal role in diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). We previously showed that ROS up-regulate miR-200c expression, that in turns causes apoptosis, senescence, ROS upregulation and nitric oxide decrease, leading to endothelial disfunction.MethodsThe aim of this study is to dissect miR-200c role in DFU and to explore the potential role of anti-miR-200c and antioxidant catalase (CAT) in promoting wound healing (WH). miR-200c inhibition and CAT treatment were performed either in immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT) or in primary fibroblasts (FBs) and keratinocytes (KCs) deriving from diabetic patients (pts) undergoing amputations. Primary cells deriving from pts undergoing saphenectomies were used as controls. The miR-200c blockade was performed either via lentiviral particles bearing an anti-miR-200c sequence or locked nucleic acid (LNA) anti-miR-200c oligos. Equine CAT was administered on cell medium. The WH assay was performed in vivo on diabetic (db/db) mice by a topical treatment with CAT and LNA anti-miR-200c on wounds dissolved in a Pluronic gel mixture, administered every three days.ResultsWe found that miR-200c levels were increased by different stimuli known to induce ROS, such as ultraviolet radiation (UV), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and high glucose in HaCaT. miR-200c was also upregulated in skin biopsies, in FBs and KCs isolated from pts with DFU vs controls. Forced miR-200c expression induced ROS in both FBs and KCs, and CAT reduced it. miR-200c inhibition improved WH in HaCaT, both under basal conditions and after UV and H2O2 treatment, and the simultaneous treatment with CAT accelerated it. miR-200c inhibition accelerated WH in KCs of DFU pts, increasing its protein targets: sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), the transcription factors FOXO1 and ZEB1 and decreasing p66Shc phosphorylation at Ser-36, that is induced by ROS, and the co-treatment with CAT showed synergistic effects in reducing ROS and cytotoxicity. Interestingly, CAT treatment decreased miR-200c expression in FBs and KCs of DFU pts. Topical administration of anti-miR-200c and CAT in a WH model of diabetic mice accelerated closure.ConclusionsAnti-miR-200c and CAT could be considered a novel treatment for DFU and, possibly, for other types of non-diabetic skin ulcers.

Project description:BackgroundDiabetes is common yet challenging chronic disease, that affects a wide range of people around the world. Complex cellular environments around diabetic wounds tend to damage the function of effector cells, including vascular endothelial cells (VECs), fibroblasts and epithelial cells. This study aims to analyze the differences between diabetic wounds and normal skin as well as whether adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) exosome could promote healing of diabetic wound.MethodsHuman diabetic wounds and normal skin were collected and stained with HE, Masson, CD31 and 8-hydroxy-2 deoxyguanosine immunohistochemical staining. RNA-seq data were collected for further bioinformatics analysis. ADSC exosomes were isolated and identified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and western blotting. The effect of ADSC exosomes on diabetic wound healing was assessed on full thickness wounds in mice. To further verify the regulative impact of ADSCs exosomes in high glucose treated fibroblasts, we isolated fibroblasts from normal skin tissue and measured the cell viability, apoptosis rate, proliferation and migration of fibroblasts. In addition, collagen formation and fibrosis-related molecules were also detected. To further disclose the mechanism of ADSC exosomes on the function of high glucose treated fibroblasts, we detected the expression of apoptosis related molecules including BCL2, Bax, and cleaved caspase-3.ResultsHistological observation indicated that perilesional skin tissues from diabetic patients showed structural disorder, less collagen disposition and increased injury compared with normal skin. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the levels of inflammatory and collagen synthesis related molecules, as well as oxidative stress and apoptosis related molecules, were significantly changed. Furthermore, we found that ADSC exosomes could not only speed up diabetic wound healing, but could also improve healing quality. ADSC exosomes restored high glucose induced damage to cell viability, migration and proliferation activity, as well as fibrosis-related molecules such as SMA, collagen 1 and collagen 3. In addition, we verified that ADSC exosomes downregulated high glucose induced increased apoptosis rate in fibroblast and the protein expression of Bax as well as cleaved caspases 3.ConclusionsThis study indicated that ADSC exosomes alleviated high glucose induced damage to fibroblasts and accelerate diabetic wound healing by inhibiting Bax/caspase 3.
