Project description:Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is the most common skin manifestation of lupus. Despite its high frequency in systemic lupus in addition to cases without extracutaneous manifestations, targeted treatments for DLE are lacking, likely because of a dearth of knowledge of the molecular landscape of DLE skin. Here, we profiled the transcriptome of DLE skin in order to identify signaling pathways and cellular signatures that may be targeted for treatment purposes. Further comparison of the DLE transcriptome with that of psoriasis, a useful reference given our extensive knowledge of molecular pathways in this disease, provided a framework to identify potential therapeutic targets. Although a growing body of data support a role for IL-17 and T helper type 17 (Th17) cells in systemic lupus, we show a relative enrichment of IFN-γ-associated genes without that for IL-17-associated genes in DLE. Extraction of T cells from the skin of DLE patients identified a predominance of IFN-γ-producing Th1 cells and an absence of IL-17-producing Th17 cells, complementing the results from whole-skin transcriptomic analyses. These data therefore support investigations into treatments for DLE that target Th1 cells or the IFN-γ signaling pathway. Comparison of transcriptomes between skin conditions

Project description:Background: Plaque psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by the development of red scaly plaques. To date psoriasis lesional skin transcriptome has been extensively studied, whereas only few proteomic studies of psoriatic skin are available. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare protein expression patterns of lesional and normally looking skin of psoriasis patients with skin of the healthy volunteers, reveal differentially expressed proteins and identify changes in cell metabolism caused by the disease. Methods: Skin samples of normally looking and lesional skin donated by psoriasis patients (n = 5) and samples of healthy skin donated by volunteers (n = 5) were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). After protein identification and data processing, the set of differentially expressed proteins was subjected to protein ontology analysis to characterize changes in biological processes, cell components and molecular functions in the patients' skin compared to skin of the healthy volunteers. Results: The performed analysis identified 405 and 59 differentially expressed proteins in lesional and normally looking psoriatic skin compared to healthy control. We discovered decreased expression of KNG1, APOE, HRG, THBS1 and PLG in normally looking skin of the patients. Presumably, these changes were needed to protect the epidermis from spontaneous activation of kallikrein-kinin system and delay the following development of inflammatory response. In lesional skin, we identified several large groups of proteins with coordinated expression. Mainly, these proteins were involved in different aspects of protein and RNA metabolism, namely ATP synthesis and consumption; intracellular trafficking of membrane-bound vesicles, pre-RNA processing, translation, chaperoning and degradation in proteasomes/immunoproteasomes. Conclusion: Our findings explain the molecular basis of metabolic changes caused by disease in skin lesions, such as faster cell turnover and higher metabolic rate. They also indicate on downregulation of kallikrein-kinin system in normally looking skin of the patients that would be needed to delay exacerbation of the disease.

Project description:Radiation therapy is a cornerstone of cancer treatment which frequently leads to cutaneous side effects. In a significant proportion of patients, this can progress to debilitating radiation-induced skin fibrosis (RISF). To investigate the early molecular events underlying RISF, we employed a novel human ex vivo model utilizing discarded human skin from elective surgical procedures. This dataset is comprised of irradiated and control skin from 6 human donors post-panniculectomy.

Project description:Hair follicles undergo recurrent cycling of controlled growth (anagen), regression (catagen), and relative quiescence (telogen) with a defined periodicity. Taking a genomics approach to study gene expression during synchronized mouse hair follicle cycling, we discovered that, in addition to circadian fluctuation, CLOCK-regulated genes are also modulated in phase with the hair growth cycle. During telogen and early anagen, circadian clock genes are prominently expressed in the secondary hair germ, which contains precursor cells for the growing follicle. Analysis of Clock and Bmal1 mutant mice reveals a delay in anagen progression, and the secondary hair germ cells show decreased levels of phosphorylated Rb and lack mitotic cells, suggesting that circadian clock genes regulate anagen progression via their effect on the cell cycle. Consistent with a block at the G1 phase of the cell cycle, we show a significant upregulation of p21 in Bmal1 mutant skin. While circadian clock mechanisms have been implicated in a variety of diurnal biological processes, our findings indicate that circadian clock genes may be utilized to modulate the progression of non-diurnal cyclic processes. To gain molecular understanding of the the hair cycle delay in Bmal mutant mice, we profiled the dorsal skin of Bmal knockout (-/-) and their heterozygous (+/-) littermates at P22. At P22, the skin samples are comparable because all the samples are in telogen just prior to the hair cycle delay was observed. Histological sections were used to classify each sample into specific stage of the hair growth cycle based on established morphological guidelines. RNA from each mouse dorsal skin were separately hybridized to an Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST array.

Project description:To examine the possibility that biochemical,or molecular signatures of endometrium may prove to be more useful, we have investigated,whole genome molecular phenotyping (54,600 genes/ESTs) of this tissue sampled across the,cycle in 28 normo-ovulatory women, using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays. The results demonstrate,that endometrial samples obtained by two different sampling techniques (biopsy and curetting,hysterectomy specimens) from subjects who are as normal as possible in a human study and,4,including those with unknown histology, can be classified by their molecular signatures and,correspond to known phases of the menstrual cycle with identical results using two independent,analytical methods. Also, the results enable global identification of biological processes and,molecular mechanisms that occur dynamically in the endometrium in the changing steroid,hormone milieu across the menstrual cycle in normo-ovulatory women. The results underscore,the potential of gene expression profiling for developing molecular diagnostics of endometrial,normalcy and abnormalities and identifying molecular targets for therapeutic purposes in,endometrial disorders.
