Gene expression in Krt16 null paw lesions relative to WT paw skin

ABSTRACT: The type I intermediate filament keratin 16 (Krt16 gene; K16 protein) is constitutively expressed in ectoderm-derived appendages and volar palmar/plantar epidermis, and is otherwise inducibly expressed in non-volar epidermis when skin epithelia are under stress. Mutations at the (human) KRT16 locus can cause pachyonychia congenita (PC) and focal non-epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK), which each entail painful calluses on palmar and/or plantar skin. Krt16 null mice develop footpad lesions that mimic several aspects of PC-associated PPK and FNEPPK, including hypoactive Keap1-Nrf2 signaling and elevated expression of skin barrier homeostasis genes and Danger Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs). This provides a unique opportunity to understand the intricacies of PPK and devise effective therapies (see Lessard and Coulombe, J. Invest. Dermatol. 2012; Lessard et al. PNAS (USA) 2013; Kerns et al. J. Clin. Invest. 2016; Kerns et al., J. Invest. Dermatol. 2018; Zieman and Coulombe Exp. Dermatol. 2018). Here, we report on insight gained from a genome-wide analysis of gene expression in PPK-like lesions of Krt16 null mice. In this dataset, we include expression data obtained from Krt16 null paw skin lesions and WT littermate controls (C57Bl/6 strain background) at two months of age.

Gene Expression Profiling in Pachyonychia Congenita Skin

Project description:Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a skin disorder resulting from mutations in keratin genes (KRT) 6A, KRT6B, KRT6C, KRT16, and KRT17 genes. One of the major symptoms is painful plantar keratoderma. The pathogenic sequelae resulting from the keratin mutations remain unclear. To better understand PC pathogenesis.RNA profiling was performed on biopsies taken from PC-involved and uninvolved plantar skin of seven PC (-K6a, -K6b, -K16, -K17) patients as well as from control volunteers. Protein profiling was generated from tape-stripping samples. A comparison of PC-involved skin biopsies to adjacent uninvolved plantar skin identified 112 differentially-expressed mRNAs common to patient groups harboring keratin protein (K) 6 and K16 mutations. Among these mRNAs, 25 encode structural proteins including keratins, small proline-rich and late cornified envelope proteins, 20 are related to metabolism and 16 encode proteases, peptidases, and their inhibitors including kallikrein-related peptidases (KLKs) and serine protease inhibitors (SERPINs). mRNAs were also identified to be differentially expressed only in K6 (81) or K16 (141) patient samples. Furthermore, 13 mRNAs were identified that may be involved in pain including nociception and neuropathy. Protein profiling, comparing three K6a plantar tape-stripping samples to non-PC controls, showed changes in the PC corneocytes similar, but not identical, to the mRNA analysis. Many differentially-expressed genes identified in PC-involved skin encode components critical for skin barrier homeostasis including keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation, cornification, and desquamation. The profiling data provide a foundation for unraveling the pathogenesis of PC and identifying targets for developing effective PC therapeutics.

Differential cell composition and split epidermal differentiation in human palm, sole, and hip skin

Project description:Palmoplantar skin is structurally and functionally unique, but the transcriptional programs driving this specialization are unknown. Here, we exploit bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing of human palm, sole, and hip skin to describe the distinguishing characteristics of palmoplantar and non-palmoplantar skin while also uncovering previously unappreciated differences between palmar and plantar sites. Our approach reveals downregulation of diverse immunological processes and decreased immune cell populations in palmoplantar skin, highlighting an altered immune environment in the skin of the palms and soles. Further, we identify specific palmoplantar and non-palmoplantar fibroblast populations that appear to orchestrate key differences in cell-cell communication in palm, sole, and hip. Dedicated analysis of epidermal keratinocytes highlights major differences in basal cell fraction among the three sites and validates the presence of a more differentiated, cycling basal population. Finally, our data demonstrate the existence of two spinous keratinocyte populations that constitute two parallel, site-selective epidermal differentiation trajectories. Together, these results provide a deep characterization of the highly adapted palmoplantar skin and contribute new insights into the fundamental biology of human skin.

In vitro gene signature of cultured volar or nonvolar keratinocytes

Project description:How cell and tissue identity persist despite constant cell turnover is an important biologic question with cell therapy implications. While many mechanisms exist, we investigated the controls for site-specific gene expression in skin given its diverse structures and functions. For example, the transcriptome of in vivo palmoplantar (i.e. volar) epidermis is globally unique including Keratin 9 (KRT9). While volar fibroblasts have the capacity to induce KRT9 in non-volar keratinocytes, we demonstrate here that volar keratinocytes continue to express KRT9 in vitro solo-cultures. Despite this, KRT9 expression is lost with volar keratinocyte passaging, in spite of stable hypo-methylation of its promoter. Coincident with KRT9 loss is a gain of the primitive Keratin 7 and a signature of dsRNA sensing, including the dsRNA receptor DDX58. Exogenous dsRNA inhibits KRT9 expression in early passage volar keratinocytes or in vivo footpads of wild-type mice. Loss of DDX58 in passaged volar keratinocytes rescues KRT9 and inhibits KRT7 expression. Additionally, DDX58 null mice are resistant to the ability of dsRNA to inhibit KRT9 expression. These results demonstrate that the sensing of dsRNA is critical for loss of cell specific gene expression; our results have important implications of how dsRNA sensing is important outside of immune pathways. Keratinocytes were expanded from both the sole and the dorsum of the foot and at passage 4, RNA was extracted and sent for microarray analysis
