Patients with Congenital Ichthyosis and TGM1 Mutations Overexpress Other ARCI Genes in the Skin: Part of a Barrier Repair Response?

ABSTRACT: Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a heterogeneous group of monogenic skin disorders caused by mutations in any of >10 different genes, many of which are involved in epidermal synthesis of ω-O-acylceramides (acylCer), an essential precursor of the corneocyte lipid envelope that is also dependent on transglutaminase-1 for normal skin barrier formation. We hypothesized that inactivating TGM1 mutations, the most common cause of ARCI, might lead to a compensatory overexpression of transcripts involved in barrier repair, including ARCI-causing genes. Using microarray we examined the global mRNA expression profile in skin biopsies from five ARCI-patients with TGM1 mutations and four healthy controls. There were a total of 602 differentially expressed genes (adjusted P<0.05). Gene ontology analysis showed enrichment of mRNA encoding proteins associated with biological pathways mainly involved in keratinocyte differentiation and adaptive/innate immune response. Moreover, among non-syndromic ARCI-causing genes, seven out of twelve were significantly increased (log2fold -change=0.98-2.05). Four genes causing syndromic ichthyosis and seven other genes involved in biosynthesis of fatty acyl-CoA and ceramides were also significantly affected. This study reveals upregulation of several ichthyosis-causing genes in the skin of patients with TGM1 mutations, indicating a compensatory induction of acylCer biosynthesis as a part of a barrier repair mechanism.

The effects of TGM1 Mutations in HEK293T and HaCaT cells

Project description:Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a group of rare inherited skin disorders characterized by remarkable hyperkeratosis. Transglutaminase 1 (TGM1) mutations have been reported to be involved in four different phenotypes of ARCI, including lamellar ichthyosis (LI), non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NBCIE), bathing suit ichthyosis (BSI), and self-improving collodion ichthyosis (SICI) according to the clinical presentation and histopathology. TGM1 has been found as a defective gene in a large amount of patients with LI and some patients with NBCIE, BSI and SICI. To further understand the effect of TGM1 mutations in epidermal cells development, we performed the transcriptome analysis of HEK293T and HaCaT cells transfected with TGM1 shRNA, TGM1 wild-type and mutant clones. The transcriptomic analysis revealed the effects of TGM1 on cell-cell interaction by suppressing genes involved in the gap junctions, tight junctions and desmosomes. These findings suggested that the TGM1 deficiency disturbed the balance of keratinocytes proliferation and differentiation processes and impaired the epithelial barrier function. The results provided the basis for further understanding on the etiology of ARCI. To explore the functional impacts on some of the TGM1mutations identified, we cloned and transfected the TGM1 wild type and mutant clones into HEK293T and HaCaT cells. R142C and R348X sequence mutations observed in ARCI (Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis) patients were generated. The shRNA targeting TGM1 and a scrambled negative control were obtained from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA). The293T and HaCaT cells were transfected with over-expression clones carry either wild-type or mutated TGM1sequence. Cells were harvested 48 hours post-transfection.

Expression data from adult mouse epidermis upon tamoxifen induced inactivation of Alox12b

Project description:Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyoses (ARCI) are a group of non-syndromic congenital keratinization disorders including harlequin ichthyosis, lamellar ichthyosis, and congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma with a total prevalence of 1:200,000. Affected individuals who are often born as collodion babies present with generalized scaling of the skin. This reflects a physical compensation for the defective cutaneous permeability barrier underlying all ichthyoses. Inactivity of 12R-lipoxygenase (12R-LOX) is a frequent cause of ARCI. Epidermis-specific conditional knockout of Alox12b encoding 12R-LOX was established in mice using the Cre-Lox system. Tamoxifen-induced Alox12b inactivation in mouse skin caused an ichthyosis-like phenotype. We used microarray to compare the gene expression profile in the epidermis of mice after tamoxifen induced Alox12b inactivation with that of control animals. Inactivation of Alox12b was associated with the upregulation of genes involved in keratinization, cholesterol biosynthesis, and Fc-epsilon receptor signaling.

Expression data from newborn Alox12b knockout mouse epidermis

Project description:Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyoses are a group of non-syndromic congenital keratinization disorders including harlequin ichthyosis, lamellar ichthyosis, and congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma with a total prevalence of 1:200,000. Affected individuals who are often born as collodion babies present with generalized scaling of the skin. This reflects a physical compensation for the defective cutaneous permeability barrier underlying all ichthyoses. Inactivity of 12R-lipoxygenase (12R-LOX) is a frequent cause of ARCI. Mice with targeted inactivation of the 12R-LOX gene Alox12b were established .Heterozygous mutant mice (Alox12b+/−) were bred with 129S6, and their heterozygous offspring were intercrossed to obtain homozygous mutant mice. Homozygous Alox12b knockout mice died within 3 hours after birth owing to defective skin barrier function. We used microarray to compare the gene expression profile in the epidermis of Alox12b-null mice with that of wildtype animals. Inactivation of Alox12b was associated with the upregulation of genes involved in keratinization, cholesterol biosynthesis, and Fc-epsilon receptor signaling.

Epidermal barrier impairment predisposes for excessive growth of the allergy-associated yeast Malassezia on murine skin

Project description:The skin barrier is vital for protection against environmental threats including insults caused by skin-resident microbes. Dysregulation of this barrier is a hallmark of atopic dermatitis (AD) and ichthyosis, with variable consequences for host immune control of colonizing commensals and opportunistic pathogens. While Malassezia is the most abundant commensal fungus of the skin, little is known about the host control of this fungus in inflammatory skin diseases. Here we show that in barrier-impaired skin, Malassezia acquires enhanced fitness and overt growth properties. By using four distinct and complementary murine models of atopic dermatitis and ichthyosis we provide evidence that structural and metabolic changes in the dysfunctional epidermal barrier environment provide increased accessibility and an altered lipid profile, to which the lipid-dependent yeast adapts for enhanced nutrient assimilation. These findings reveal fundamental insights into the implication of the mycobiota in the pathogenesis of common skin barrier disorders.

Genome-wide analysis of gene expression in Krt1+/+ versus Krt1-/- epidermis and full-thickness skin.

Project description:Keratin 1 (KRT1) and its heterodimer partner keratin 10 (KRT10) constitute the intermediate filament cytoskeleton of suprabasal skin keratinocytes. They participate in formation of the epidermal barrier, which protects against dehydration and inflammation. Mutations in KRT1 cause keratinopathic ichthyosis with erythema, recurrent inflammation, and barrier defects. Here, we show that genetic deletion of Krt1 in mice causes a defective inside-out epidermal barrier, pre- and postnatal increases in Mrp8/Mrp14, interleukin (IL) 18, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in skin extracts, and systemic release of IL-18 into newborn serum. Perinatal lethality was partially rescued by treatment with glucocorticoids to promote barrier repair or with IL- 18-blocking antibodies in utero. In human keratinocytes, IL-18 release was cellautonomous and caspase-1-dependent, indicating KRT1-dependent inflammasome activation. Our data reveal a novl function of KRT1 in controlling inflammasome activity and stimulating barrier formation, thereby integrating the keratin cytoskeleton into the epidermal immune response. In view of their widespread expression, keratins merit investigation of their functions in inflammatory conditions, including asthma and inflammatory bowel disorders. Total RNA was obtained from epidermis or full-thickness skin of Krt1+/+ and Krt1-/- mice (C57BL/6 background) at P0 (newborn).

Fatty acid transport protein 4 is required for incorporation of saturated ultralong-chain fatty acids into epidermal ceramides and monoacylglycerols

Project description:Fatty acid transport protein 4 (FATP4) is an acyl-CoA synthetase that is required for normal permeability barrier in mammalian skin. FATP4 (SLC27A4) mutations cause ichthyosis prematurity syndrome, a nonlethal disorder. In contrast, Fatp4-/- mice die neonatally from a defective barrier. Here we used electron microscopy and lipidomics to characterize defects in Fatp4-/- mice. Mutants showed lamellar body, corneocyte lipid envelope, and cornified envelope abnormalities. Lipidomics identified two lipids previously speculated to be present in mouse epidermis, sphingosine β-hydroxyceramide and monoacylglycerol; mutants displayed decreased proportions of these and the two ceramide classes that carry ultralong-chain, amide-linked fatty acids (FAs) thought to be critical for barrier function, unbound ω-O-acylceramide and bound ω-hydroxyceramide, the latter constituting the major component of the corneocyte lipid envelope. Other abnormalities included elevated amounts of sphingosine α-hydroxyceramide, phytosphingosine non-hydroxyceramide, and 1-O-acylceramide. Acyl chain length alterations in ceramides also suggested roles for FATP4 in esterifying saturated non-hydroxy and β-hydroxy FAs with at least 25 carbons and saturated or unsaturated ω-hydroxy FAs with at least 30 carbons to CoA. Our lipidomic analysis is the most thorough such study of the Fatp4-/- mouse skin barrier to date, providing information about how FATP4 can contribute to barrier function by regulating fatty acyl moieties in various barrier lipids.

ZNF750 in late keratinocyte differentiation

Project description:Disrupted skin barrier due to altered keratinocyte differentiation is common in pathologic conditions such as atopic dermatitis, ichthyosis and psoriasis. However, the molecular cascades governing keratinocyte terminal differentiation are still poorly understood. We have previously demostrated that a dominante mutation in ZNF750 leads to a clinical phenotype that reminiscent of psoriasis and seborrehic dermatitis. We defined ZNF750 as a nuclear effector that is atrongly activated in and essiential for keratinocyte terminal differentiation. ZNF750 knockdown in HaCaT keratinocytes markedly reduced the expression of epidermal late differentiation markers, including gene subsets of epidermal differentiation complex and skin barrier formation such as FLG, LOR, SPINK5, ALOX12B and DSG1, known to be mutated in various human skin diseases. Furthermore, ZNF750 over-expression in undifferentiated cells induced terminal differentiation genes. Thus, ZNF750 is a regulator of keratinocyte terminal differnetiation, and with its downstream targets can serve in future elucidation of therapeutics for common disease of skin barrier Gene expression analysis: To determine the differentaition signature for HaCaT keratinocytes, with ZNF750 gene silencing, total RNA was isolated in biologic triplicates from cells induced to differentiate for twelve days and hybridized to Affymerix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.
