Polarizing Cytokines and Staphylococcus aureus Cooperatively Induce Atopic Dermatitis-Like Transcriptomes

ABSTRACT: Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease with a TH2 immune polarity and is often colonized with Staphylococcus aureus. Despite recent advances in understanding Staphylococcus species infection and the impact of polar TH cytokines on the skin, the interactions between these factors in AD pathology are poorly understood. Methods: AD-related key immune biomarkers were measured by quantitative real-time PCR in human keratinocytes exposed heat-killed S. epidermidis or S. aureus with/without polar T-cell derived cytokines such as IFN-γ (TH1), IL-4/IL-13 (TH2), and IL-22 (TH22). Further analysis was performed by RNA-sequencing to define broader responses in both Staphylococcus species and polar cytokines. The similarity of gene expression patterns in AD skin lesions and stimulated keratinocytes was evaluated by gene-set variation analysis (GSVA). Results: Gene expression analysis exhibited distinct immune responses in keratinocytes depending on individual bacterial or polar cytokine exposure. Besides, numerous genes were synergistically upregulated by the combination exposure of bacteria and polar TH cytokines. Moreover, GSVA revealed that combined exposure of S. aureus and IL-4 + IL-13 exhibited significantly higher correlations with a genomic signature of AD skin lesions than their single exposure or combinations of other polar TH cytokines. Conclusions: Our findings provide novel insights into AD-related transcriptional activation and illustrate a potentially novel pathogenic function of S. aureus and IL-4/IL-13 interactions in AD.

Effect of miR-939 overexpression on gene expression in heat-killed S. aureus-stimulated keratinocytes

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, chronic inflammatory skin disease that seriously affects quality of life and is a major cause of skin diseases worldwide. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) colonization on the skin plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AD; however, the mechanism of how it modulates skin immunity to exacerbate AD remains unclear. MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that act as post-transcriptional regulators of genes. They are involved in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory skin diseases. In this study, we established miRNA expression profiles for keratinocytes stimulated with heat-killed S. aureus (HKSA). We found that miR-939 was highly upregulated in HKSA-stimulated keratinocytes and AD lesions. In vitro studies revealed that miR-939 increased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase genes, including MMP1, MMP3, and MMP9, as well as the cell adhesion molecule ICAM1 in human primary keratinocytes. In vivo studies indicated that miR-939 increased the expression of matrix metalloproteinases to promote the colonization of S. aureus and exacerbated S. aureus-induced AD-like skin inflammation. Taken together, these findings suggest that miR-939 is an important regulator of skin inflammation in AD.

Gene expression profile of human epidermal keratinocytes in response to IFNgamma, IL-4, IL-6, IL-17A and IL-22

Project description:To understand the role of epidermal keratinocytes in immunopathology of skin diseases with predominant T helper (Th) cell responses, we measured the genome-wide transcriptional profile of human keratinocytes in response to IFNgamma, IL-4, IL-17A or IL-22, major cytokines produced by Th1, Th2, Th17 or Th22 cells, respectively. IL-6 was also included in the transcriptional profile analysis because a variety of pro-inflammatory stimuli stimulate human keratinocytes to produce IL-6 that has an autocrine or paracrine role in epidermal immunity. We aimed to discover commonly expressed genes in human keratinocytes in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines, which would be associated with common pathophysiological responses in various skin diseases such as skin permeability barrier disruption or epidermal hyperplasia. Normal human keratinocytes (NHKs) were stimulated with IFNγ, IL-4, IL-6, IL-17A and IL-22 for 24 hours and harvested for total RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Skin cancer-associated S. aureus downregulates DNA repair mechanisms, and promotes oxidative stress and DNA damage in human keratinocytes

Project description:Actinic keratoses (AK) are premalignant lesions common on photo-damaged skin that, over time, can progress to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). A high bacterial load of Staphylococcus aureus is associated with AK and SCC but it is unknown whether this has a direct impact on skin cancer development. To determine whether S. aureus is able to trigger pro-tumorigenic skin responses, we performed RNAseq and shotgun proteomics on primary human keratinocytes after challenge with sterile culture supernatant (‘secretome’) from S. aureus clinical strains isolated from AK and SCC. Certain S. aureus secretomes induced keratinocytes to overexpress SCC biomarkers that have been associated with skin carcinogenesis, and upregulate the expression of enzymes linked with reduced skin barrier function. Further, S. aureus secretomes downregulated DNA repair mechanisms and induced oxidative stress markers. Subsequent experiments confirmed that exposure to SCC-derived S. aureus secretomes lead to increased intracellular ROS levels and DNA damage in primary human keratinocytes. Altogether, this study reveal a novel mechanism for the pro-tumorigenic activity of S. aureus. Further studies are required to determine whether S. aureus products promote SCC development in vivo, which would have important implications for the treatment of AK and prevention of SCC.

Neutrophil-derived IL-1β is sufficient for abscess formation in immunity against Staphylococcus aureus in mice

Project description:Neutrophil abscess formation is critical in innate immunity against many pathogens. Here, the mechanism of neutrophil abscess formation was investigated using a mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus cutaneous infection. Gene expression analysis of S. aureus-infected skin revealed that induction of neutrophil recruitment genes was largely dependent upon IL-1beta/IL-1R activation. Unexpectedly, using IL 1beta reporter mice, neutrophils were identified as the primary source of IL-1beta at the site of infection. Furthermore, IL-1beta-producing neutrophils were necessary and sufficient for abscess formation and bacterial clearance. S. aureus-induced IL 1beta production by neutrophils required TLR2, NOD2, FPRs and the ASC/NLRP3 inflammasome. Taken together, IL-1beta and neutrophil abscess formation during an infection are functionally, spatially and temporally linked as a consequence of direct IL-1beta production by neutrophils. Lesional skin biopsies obtained from C57BL/6J WT mice or IL-1R-deficient mice at 4 hours post-infection with Staphylococcus aureus. Uninfected skin biopsies were also collected from WT and IL-1R-deficient mice.

Skin Microbiome in Disease States: Atopic Dermatitis and Immunodeficiency

Project description:<p>The NIH Intramural Skin Microbiome Consortium (NISMC) is a collaboration of investigators with primary expertise in genomics, bioinformatics, large-scale DNA sequencing, dermatology, immunology, allergy, infectious disease, and clinical microbiology. Atopic dermatitis (AD, "eczema") is a chronic relapsing skin disorder that affects ~15% of U.S. children and is associated with $1 billion of medical costs annually. AD is characterized by dry, itchy skin, infiltrated with immune cells. Colonization by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is ten-fold more common in AD patients and is associated with disease flares. We hypothesize that, in addition to S. aureus, AD may also be associated with additional novel microbes and/or selective shifts of commensal microbes that are relevant to disease progression. The NISMC seeks to define the microbiota that resides in and on the skin and nares of three patient groups, all of whom have eczematous lesions and are currently seen at the NIH Clinical Center: (1) AD patients; (2) Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) patients; and (3) Hyper IgE syndrome (HIES) syndrome patients. Examination of the microbiome of patients with WAS or HIES syndromes, both rare immunodeficiencies, will advance our understanding of how an individual's immune system shapes their cutaneous microbial community. We are performing a prospective longitudinal study that follows these groups of patient thorough the cycles of eczema flares, ascertaining clinical data and samples at each stage.</p>

Interleukin-26 potentiates type 2 skin inflammation in presence of interleukin-1β

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a debilitating inflammatory skin disorder. Biologics targeting the IL-4/IL-13 axis are effective in AD, but there is still a large proportion of patients that do not respond to IL-4R blockade. Further exploration of potentially pathogenic T cell-derived cytokines in AD may lead to new effective treatments. This study aimed to investigate the downstream effects of IL-26 on skin in the context of type 2 skin inflammation. We found that IL-26 alone exhibited limited inflammatory activity in skin. However, in presence of IL-1β, IL-26 potentiated the secretion of TSLP, CXCL1 and CCL20 from human epidermis through JAK/STAT signaling. Moreover, in an in vivo AD-like skin inflammation model, IL-26 exacerbated skin pathology and locally increased type 2 cytokines, most notably of Il13 in skin T helper cells. Neutralization of IL-1β abrogated IL-26-mediated effects, indicating that the presence of IL-1β is required for full IL-26 downstream action in vivo. These findings suggest that the presence of IL-1β enables IL-26 to be a key amplifier of inflammation in the skin. As such, IL-26 may contribute to the development and pathogenesis of inflammatory skin disorders such as AD.

Secreted Factors from Staphylococcus aureus Biofilm and Planktonic Cultures Differentially Impact Human Keratinocytes in vitro

Project description:Interactions between human keratinocytes and secreted factors from Staphylococcus aureus biofilm were investigated using microarray analysis. Relative to control cells, biofilm-secreted factors upregulated cytokine and chemokine genes in keratinocytes. Genes associated with DNA damage and oxidative stress were also induced in keratinocytes treated with secreted factors from S. aureus. Here we show that secreted factors from S. aureus biofilm cultures differentially impact several aspects of wound healing processes. Human keratinocytes were grown in co-culture with mature S. aureus biofilms for 24 hours. Keratinocytes exposed to S. aureus biofilm were analyzed in quadruplicate. Control cells were also analyzed in quadruplicate. Dye-swaps were performed.
