Project description:The skin epidermis is a highly compartmentalised tissue consisting of a cornifying epithelium called the interfollicular epidermis (IFE) and associated hair follicles (HFs). Several stem cell populations have been described that mark specific sub compartments in the skin but none of them is IFE-specific. Here we identify Troy as a marker of IFE and HF infundibulum basal layer cells in embryonic and adult human and mouse epidermis. Genetic lineage-tracing experiments demonstrate that Troy-expressing basal cells contribute to long-term renewal of all layers of the cornifying epithelium. Single-cell transcriptomics and organoid assays of Troy-expressing cells as well as their progeny confirmed stem cell identity as well as the ability to generate differentiating daughter cells. In conclusion, we define Troy as a marker of epidermal basal cells that govern interfollicular epidermal renewal and cornification.

Project description:We report global transcriptional alteration and transcriptional heterogeneity of epidermal cells in remodeling mouse abdominal skin during perinatal period. By RNA-sequencing of FACS-isolated interfollicular epidermal (IFE) basal cells from abdominal skin of wildtype (WT) non-pregnant (NP) mice, pregnant mice, and Tbx3 cKO pregnant mice, we revealed pregnancy-associated genes and a key role of Tbx3 in regulating the pregnancy-associated transcriptome. To resolve the transcriptional heterogeneity of epidermal cells at single cell resolution, we performed single cell RNA sequencing of epidermal cells isolated from the abdominal skin of NP mice, pregnant mice, and post-partum mice by using Tbx3creERT2;R26H2B-EGFP mice. By unsupervised evaluation of clustering-based cell identities of total samples on the Seurat platform, we identified 14 main clusters, where the IFE1 cluster was appeared to be enriched in Dpc16 samples, and further revealed the pseudotime differentiation of Tbx3cre labeled cells during perinatal period.

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.

Project description:The vitamin D receptor (VDR) regulates cell proliferation and differentiation including epidermal keratinocytes by modulating transcription of its target genes. We are investigating the role of VDR in epidermal stem cells and their progenies in the regeneration process of epidermis and hair in the skin. VDR null mice are utilized in which VDR is specifically deleted in keratin 14 (K14) expressing keratinocytes by Cre-lox strategy. The impact of VDR deletion was evaluated by comparison of VDR null mice with no cre littermate control mice. The VDR was abundantly expressed in potential epidermal stem cells including basal cells in interfollicular epidermis (IFE), and in CD34 expressing bulge keratinocytes in hair follicles. Gene expression profiles and subsequent pathway analysis of stem cell enriched keratinocyte populations revealed that the VDR deletion significantly suppressed β-catenin signaling as well as VDR signaling. The role of VDR in epidermal stem cells was studied during hair follicle cycling and wound healing processes. The epidermal stem cells were not appropriately stimulated by hair depilation, and did not reinitiate anagen in the hair follicles resulting in a failure of hair regrowth. In addition, the stem cells were not fully activated after full thickness wounds were generated in VDR null skin under a low calcium diet to suppress compensation pathways. Cell proliferation was not fully induced in potential stem cells located in both IFE and hair follicles near the wounding edges, and re-epithelialization rate was delayed in VDR null skin. Gene expression profiling of the wounded skin (3 days after injury) indicated that β-catenin signaling was not fully induced in VDR null skin comparable to that observed in β-catenin null mice. The β-catenin target genes including Axin2 and cell cycle regulators involved in epidermal stem cell function were not induced in the edges of the wound of VDR null skin. These results demonstrated that VDR plays an essential role in hair cycling and wound healing processes through regulation of β-catenin signaling in epidermal stem cells and their progenies. n=3 CON and KO (each sample contain RNA isolated from wounded or nonwounded skins excised from 3 mice)

Project description:Purpose: To unravel the molecular heterogeneity of distinct epidermal populations in interfollicular epidermis (IFE) in vivo Methods: We performed bulk RNA sequencing of FACS purified basal (Sca1+/alpha6-integrin+) IFE cells enriched in Slc1a3/Dlx1/Aspm CreER marked lineages. We used >10000 tdTomato+/Sca1+/α6-int+ (basal) cells from both back and tail skin at 2-weeks post TM induction from each of four CreER mouse lines and normalized them to Sca1+/α6-int+ sorted from the same mouse. Extracted RNA of high quality and low input was processed for library preparation followed by Illumina seq on HiSeq4000. The raw sample-specific FASTQ files were trimmed and mapped to the reference genome/transcriptome (mouse/mm10) and DESeq2 v1.26.0 were used to generate normalized counts and statistical analysis of differential gene expression.

Project description:There are multiple stem cells in adult mammalian epidermis, but the mechanisms controlling lineage specification are poorly understood. To identify gene expression signatures of the three major epidermal differentiation compartments we micro-dissected individual SG, IFE and HF from adult epidermis. The RNA was isolated from age and sex matched wild-type mice and performed transcriptome analysis with Affymetrix Exon microarrays We micro-dissected individual interfollicular epidermis (IFE), hair follicle (HF) and sebaceous gland (SG) from adult tail epidermis. The RNA was isolated from age and sex matched wild-type mice. Three biological replicates for each epidermal differentiation compartment were analyzed.
