Single cell RNA-Seq adult mouse skin during homeostasis and wound repair

ABSTRACT: Our knowledge of transcriptional heterogeneities in epithelial stem/progenitor cell compartments is limited. Epidermal basal cells sustain cutaneous tissue maintenance and drive wound healing. Previous studies have probed basal cell heterogeneity in stem/progenitor potential, but a comprehensive dissection of basal cell dynamics during differentiation is lacking. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing coupled with RNAScope and fluorescence lifetime imaging, we identify three non-proliferative and one proliferative basal cell transcriptional states in homeostatic skin that differ in metabolic preference and become spatially partitioned during wound re-epithelialization. Pseudotemporal trajectory and RNA velocity analyses produce a quasi-linear differentiation hierarchy where basal cells progress from Col17a1high/Trp63high state to early response state, proliferate at the juncture of these two states, or become growth arrested before differentiating into spinous cells. Wound healing induces plasticity manifested by dynamic basal-spinous interconversions at multiple basal states. Our study provides a systematic view of epidermal cellular dynamics supporting a revised “hierarchical-lineage” model of homeostasis.

Olfactomedin-4 improves cutaneous wound healing by promoting skin cell proliferation and migration

Project description:Olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4) is an olfactomedin-domain-containing glycoprotein which regulates cell adhesion, proliferation, gastrointestinal inflammation, innate immunity and cancer metastasis. In the present study investigated its role in skin regeneration and wound healing. We found that OLFM4 expression is transiently upregulated in the proliferative phase of cutaneous wound healing in humans as well as in mice. Moreover, a significant increase in OLFM4 expression was detected in the skin of lesional psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation. In vitro experiments demonstrated that OLFM4 can selectively stimulate keratinocyte proliferation and increase both keratinocyte and fibroblast migration ability. Using proteotransciptomic pathway analysis we revealed that transcription factors POU5F1/OCT4 and ESR1 acted as hubs for OLFM4-dependent signalling in keratinocytes. In vivo experiments utilizing mouse splinted full-thickness cutaneous wound healing model showed that application of recombinant OLFM4 protein can significantly improve wound healing time. Taken together, our results suggest that OLFM4 is a transiently upregulated inflammatory signal that promotes wound healing by supporting the functions of both dermal and epidermal cell compartments.

Interfollicular epidermal differentiation is gradualistic rather than stepwise with GRHL3 controlling progression from stem to transition cell states

Project description:Although interfollicular epidermal (IFE) differentiation is thought to be stepwise as reflected in sharp boundaries between the basal, spinous, granular and cornified layers, this prediction has not been studied at a single cell resolution. We used single cell RNA-seq to show that IFE differentiation is best described as a single step gradualistic process with a large number of transition cells between the basal and spinous layer. RNA-velocity analysis identifies a commitment point that separates the plastic basal and transition cell state from the unidirectionally differentiating cells. We also show that GRHL3, best known for promoting IFE terminal differentiation, has a major function in suppressing epidermal stem cell expansion and the emergence of an abnormal stem cell state by suppressing Wnt signaling in stem cells.

A global transcriptome analysis of skin wounds of diabetic mice (db/db) treated with miR-132 or control mimics

Project description:MiR-132 is one of the most upregulated miRNAs in human skin wounds at the inflammatory phase of healing. MiR-132 inhibits inflammation but promotes growth of epidermal keratinocytes, indicating that it may facilitate the inflammatory-proliferative phase transition during wound repair. Following this line of research, here we evaluated the therapeutic potential of miR-132 in chronic wound using mouse in vivo wound model. We performed a global transcriptome analysis of skin wounds of leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice treated with miR-132 or control mimics. Db/db mouse has been used as a type 2 diabetic model with impaired wound healing capacity.

RNAseq changes in mouse wound with or without time course treatment by Vemurafenib

Project description:BRAF inhibitors are highly effective therapies for patients with BRAF V600 mutated metastatic melanoma. Patients who receive BRAF inhibitors develop a variety of hyper-proliferative skin conditions, whose pathogenic basis is the paradoxical activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in BRAF wild-type cells. Most of these hyper-proliferative skin changes improve when a MEK inhibitor is co-administered, as a MEK inhibitor blocks paradoxical MAPK activation. We tested whether we could take advantage of the mechanistic understanding of the skin hyper-proliferative side effects of BRAF inhibitors to accelerate skin wound healing by inducing paradoxical MAPK activation. Here we show that the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib accelerates human keratinocyte proliferation and migration by increasing ERK phosphorylation and cell cycle progression. Topical treatment with vemurafenib in two wound-healing models in mice accelerated cutaneous wound healing and improved the tensile strength of healing wounds through paradoxical MAPK activation; addition of a MEK inhibitor reversed the benefit of vemurafenib-accelerated wound healing. The same dosing regimen of topical BRAF inhibitor did not increase the incidence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas in mice even after the application of a carcinogen. Therefore, topical BRAF inhibitors may have clinical applications in accelerating the healing of skin wounds. Full depth incisional wound mice tissues with/without Vemurafenib treatment were sent for RNAseq analysis on day 2, 6 and 14

A novel epidermal-specific role for arginase1 during cutaneous wound repair

Project description:Non-healing wounds are a major area of unmet clinical need that remain problematic to treat; therefore, improved understanding of pro-healing mechanisms is invaluable. The enzyme arginase1 is involved in pro-healing responses with its role in macrophages best-characterised. Arginase1 is also expressed by keratinocytes; however, the function of arginase1 in these critical wound repair cells is not understood. We characterised arginase1 expression in keratinocytes during normal cutaneous repair and reveal de novo temporal and spatial expression at the epidermal wound edge. Interestingly, epidermal arginase1 expression was decreased in both human and murine delayed healing wounds. We, therefore, generated a keratinocyte specific arginase1-null mouse model (K14-cre;Arg1fl/fl) to explore arginase function. Wound repair, linked to changes in keratinocyte proliferation, migration and differentiation, was significantly delayed in K14-cre;Arg1fl/flmice. Gene expression was studied by microarray.

Human keratinocytes have a response to injury that upregulates CCL20 and other genes linking innate and adaptive immunity

Project description:In the early stages of wound healing, keratinocytes become “activated” and release inflammatory molecules such as interleukin-1 and interleukin-8 that are linked to innate immune responses and neutrophil recruitment. It is unclear, however, whether keratinocytes release molecules linked to adaptive immune responses, e.g. CCL20, in their early state of activation without signals from infiltrating T cells. This study aims to isolate the immediate alterations in protective and inflammatory gene expression that occur in epidermal keratinocytes, with a particular focus on molecules associated with cell-mediated immunity. We used dispase-separated epidermis, followed by intercellular disassociation by trypsinization, as a model for epidermal injury. We obtained a pure population of keratinocytes using flow cytometry. As a control for uninjured epidermis, we performed laser capture microdissection on normal human skin. Sorted keratinocytes had an early burst of upregulated gene expression, which included CCL20, IL-15, IL-23A, IFN-κ, and several antimicrobial peptides. Our results provide insight into the potential role of keratinocytes as contributors to cell-mediated inflammation, and expand knowledge about gene modulation that occurs during early wound healing. Our findings may be relevant to cutaneous diseases such as psoriasis, where micro-injury can trigger the formation of psoriatic plaques at the site of trauma. Compare keratinocyte response to cell disassociation with (1) epidermal samples isolated by laser caputre microscopy and (2) cultured KCs

N6-methyladenosine Modification of lncRNA Pvt1 Governs Epidermal Stemness

Project description:Dynamic chemical modifications of RNA represent novel and fundamental mechanisms that regulate stemness and tissue homeostasis. Rejuvenation and wound repair of mammalian skin are sustained by epidermal progenitor cells, which are localized within the basal layer of the skin epidermis. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most abundant modifications found in eukaryotic mRNA and lncRNA (long non-coding RNA). In this report, we survey changes of m6A RNA methylomes upon epidermal differentiation, and identify Pvt1, a lncRNA whose m6A modification is critically involved in sustaining stemness of epidermal progenitor cells. With genome-editing and a mouse genetics approach, we show that ablation of m6A methyltransferase or Pvt1 impairs the self-renewal and wound healing capability of skin. Mechanistically, methylation of Pvt1 transcripts enhances its interaction with MYC and stabilizes the MYC protein in epidermal progenitor cells. Our study presents a global view of epitranscriptomic dynamics that occur during epidermal differentiation and identifies the m6A modification of Pvt1 as a key signaling event involved in skin tissue homeostasis and wound repair.

A global transcriptome analysis of human epidermal keratinocytes upon knockdown of hsa_circ_0084443

Project description:Hsa_circ_0084443 expression level is down-regulated during normal skin wound healing and higher level of hsa_circ_0084443 was found in chronic non-healing diabetic foot ulcers compared to normal wounds. However, the biological function of hsa_circ_0084443 in epidermal keratinocytes during wound repair has not been studied. To study the genes regulated by hsa_circ_0084443, we transfected siRNA targeting hsa_circ_0084443 diagnostic junction into human primary epidermal keratinocytes to knockdown hsa_circ_0084443 expression. We performed a global transcriptome analysis of keratinocytes upon knockdown of hsa_circ_0084443 using Affymetrix arrays.

In vivo analysis of gene expression changes in mouse astrocytes after traumatic spinal cord injury

Project description:Central nervous system (CNS) lesions become surrounded by neuroprotective borders of newly proliferated reactive astrocytes. Fundamental features of these cells are poorly understood. Here, using temporal transcriptome analysis of Aldh1l1-expressing local astrocytes we showed that after CNS injury, local mature astrocytes dedifferentiated, proliferated, and become transcriptionally reprogrammed to permanently altered new functional states, with persisting downregulation of molecules associated with astrocyte-neuron interactions, and upregulation of molecules associated with wound healing, microbial defence, and interactions with stromal and immune cells. Our findings show that at CNS injury sites, local mature astrocytes proliferate and adopt canonical features of essential wound repair cells that persist in adaptive states and are the predominant source of neuroprotective borders that re-establish CNS integrity by separating neural parenchyma from stromal and immune cells as occurs throughout the healthy CNS.
