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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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

Project description: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.

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.

Skin programming of inflammatory responses to Staphylococcus aureus is compartmentalised within epidermal keratinocytes differentiation status.

Project description:During acute cutaneous inflammation in diseases such as atopic eczema there are alterations in the microbiome as well as histological and ultrastructural changes to the stratified epidermis, but the precise interaction between the keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation status and the skin microbiome has not been fully explored. We hypothesised that the skin microbiome contributes to regulation of keratinocyte differentiation and can modify antimicrobial responses. Therefore, we examined the effect of exposure to topical commensal or pathogenic Staphylococcal challenge on skin models. To further explore the cell types regulating inhibition specifically targeting SA, single-cell DropSeq analysis of unchallenged naïve, SE challenged, and SA challenged epidermis models was undertaken. Transcriptomic analysis distinguished cells from basal, spinous, and granular layers which could then be interrogated individually in relation to model exposure. In contrast to SE, SA specifically induced a sub-population of spinous cells which highly expressed transcripts related to epidermal inflammation and antimicrobial response such as IL36G, IVL, IL1RN, KLK7, PI3, MMP1, S100A7, S100A8, S100A9, SERPINB1, SERPINB2, SERPINB3, and SLPI. Furthermore, SA, but not SE, specifically induced a basal population which highly expressed IL-1-alpha and IL-1-beta.
