Peroxisomal Fatty Acid Oxidation and Glycolysis Are Triggered in Mouse Models of Lesional Atopic Dermatitis.

ABSTRACT: Alterations of the lipid profile of the stratum corneum have an important role in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD) because they contribute to epidermal barrier impairment. However, they have not previously been envisioned as a cellular response to altered metabolic requirements in AD epidermis. In this study, we report that the lipid composition in the epidermis of flaky tail, that is, ft/ft mice mimics that of human lesional AD (ADL) epidermis, both showing a shift toward shorter lipid species. The amounts of C₂₄ and C₂₆ free fatty acids and C₂₄ and C₂₆ ceramides-oxidized exclusively in peroxisomes-were reduced in the epidermis of ft/ft mice despite increased lipid synthesis, similar to that seen in human ADL edpidermis. Increased ACOX1 protein and activity in granular keratinocytes of ft/ft epidermis, altered lipid profile in human epidermal equivalents overexpressing ACOX1, and increased ACOX1 immunostaining in skin biopsies from patients with ADL suggest that peroxisomal β-oxidation significantly contributes to lipid signature in ADL epidermis. Moreover, we show that increased anaerobic glycolysis in ft/ft mouse epidermis is essential for keratinocyte proliferation and adenosine triphosphate synthesis but does not contribute to local inflammation. Thus, this work evidenced a metabolic shift toward enhanced peroxisomal β-oxidation and anaerobic glycolysis in ADL epidermis.

Project description:Background: Atopic Dermatitis (AD) has been associated with the loss of function (LoF) mutations in Filaggrin (FLG) gene and increase in relative abundance of specific microbes in the lesional skin, predominantly in Caucasians. Our study aims to determine, in Indian AD patients, (a) the prevalence of FLG LoF and missense mutations, and (b) the nature and extent of dysbiosis and altered microbial pathways with and without mutations in FLG. AD patients (n = 34) and healthy controls (n = 54) were recruited from India in this study and shotgun sequencing was carried out in a subset of samples with adequate microbiome DNA concentration. Host DNA from the same subset of samples was subjected to FLG coding region sequencing and host-microbiome association was estimated. Results: The prevalence of FLG LoFs that are associated with AD globally were significantly lesser in our cases and controls (8.6%, 0%) than those reported in Europeans (27%, 2.6%). Staphylococcus aureus was present only on AD skin [abundance in Pediatric AD: 32.86%; Adult AD: 22.17%], but not on healthy skin on which Staphylococcus hominis (Adult controls: 16.43%, Adult AD: 0.20%; p = 0.002), Cutibacterium acnes (Adult controls:10.84%, Adult AD: 0.90%; p = 0.02), and Malassezia globosa (Adult controls: 8.89%, Adult AD: 0.005%; p = 0.001) were significantly more abundant. Microbial pathways mostly associated with skin barrier permeability, ammonia production and inflammation (Arginine and Proline metabolism, Histidine Metabolism and Staphylococcus aureus infection) were significantly enriched on AD skin metagenome. These pathways are also reported to impair antimicrobial peptide activity. Among AD patients with missense single nucleotide polymorphisms harboring "potentially damaging" alleles in FLG gene, damaging allele dosage was significantly (p < 0.02) positively correlated with relative abundance of phylum_Proteobacteria up to order_Pseudomonadales and negatively correlated with phylum_Firmicutes up to species_Staphylococcus aureus. Conclusion: Our study has provided evidence that host DNA profile is significantly associated with microbiome composition in the development of AD. Species and strain level analysis showed that the microbial pathways enriched in AD cases were mostly found in MRSA strains. These evidences can be harnessed to control AD by modulating the microbiome using a personalized strategy. Our findings on the association of FLG genotypes with the microbiome dysbiosis may pave the way for a personalized strategy to provide a more effective control of AD.
