Expression data of primary melanocytes from aryl hydrocarbon deficient mice and corresponding wild-type C57BL/6 mice

ABSTRACT: [original Title] Comparison of expression data of primary murine melanocytes from aryl hydrocarbon deficient mice and corresponding wild-type C57BL/6 mice Melanin is produced exclusively by melanocytes and melanogenesis is the vital response to protect skin cells against Ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced DNA damage. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a transcription factor, which may be involved in the physiological tanning response. Normal murine melanocytes express functional AhR. We tested gene expression in WT versus AhR-deficient mice primary murine melanocytes, isolated from the skin and cultivated for several passages.

We tested gene expression in WT versus AhR-deficient mice primary murine melanocytes, isolated from the skin and cultivated for several passages. Skin epidermal cells from 2 individual C57BL/6 mice and 2 individual AhR-deficient mice (deletion of exon2, AhRtm1Bra) were grown for 6-8 weeks in selection medium to propagate melanocytes.

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor in keratinocytes is essential for murine skin barrier integrity

Project description:The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in adaptive cell functions, and highly active in the epidermis. AhR-ligands can accelerate keratinocyte differentiation, but a precise role for AhR in the skin barrier is unknown. We here show that transepidermal water loss (TEWL), a parameter of skin barrier integrity, is high in AhR-deficient (AhR-KO) mice. Experiments with conditionally AhR-deficient mouse lines identified keratinocytes as the major responsible cell population for high TEWL. Electron microscopy showed weaker inter-cellular connectivity in the epidermis of keratinocytes in AhR-KO mice, and gene expression analysis identified many barrier-associated genes as AhR targets. Moreover, AhR-deficient mice had higher inter-individual differences in their microbiome. Interestingly, removing AhR-ligands from the diet of wild-type mice mimicked AhR-deficiency regarding the impaired barrier. Vice versa, re-addition of the plant-derived ligand indole-3-carbinol (I3C) rescued the barrier deficiency even in aged mice. Our results suggest that functional AhR expression is critical for skin barrier integrity and that AhR represents a molecular target for the development of novel therapeutic approaches for skin barrier diseases, including dietary intervention.

Environmental factors transmitted by aryl hydrocarbon receptor influence severity of psoriatic skin inflammation [Affymetrix]

Project description:Environmental stimuli are known to contribute to psoriasis pathogenesis and that of other autoimmune diseases, but the mechanism is unknown. Here we show that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a transcription factor that senses environmental stimuli, modulates pathology in psoriasis. AhR-activating ligands reduced inflammation in the lesional skin of psoriasis patients, whereas AhR antagonists upregulated inflammation. Similarly, AhR signaling via the endogenous FICZ ligand reduced the inflammatory response in the imiquimod-induced model of psoriasis and AhR deficient mice exhibited a substantial exacerbation of the disease, compared to AhR sufficient controls. Non-haematopoietic cells, in particular keratinocytes, were responsible for this hyper-inflammatory response, which involved increased reactivity to IL-1beta and upregulation of AP-1 family members of transcription factors. Thus, our data suggest a critical role for AhR in the regulation of inflammatory responses and open the possibility for novel therapeutic strategies in chronic inflammatory disorders. Total RNA obtained from skin explants taken from AhR heterozygous or knock-out mice treated pericutaneously with imiquimod for 0 and 2d.

Commensal Microbiota Regulates Skin Barrier Function And Repair Via Signaling Through The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor

Project description:Essential to terrestrial life is the formation of a competent skin barrier that prevents desiccation and entry by harmful substances. A tightly orchestrated series of cellular changes is required for the proper formation of the epidermal permeability barrier. These changes occur in the context of the commensal skin microbiota. Using germ free mice and antibiotic depletion models, we demonstrate the microbiota is necessary for proper differentiation and repair of the barrier. These effects were mediated by keratinocyte signaling through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), a xenobiotic receptor that also regulates epidermal differentiation. Murine skin lacking keratinocyte AHR was more susceptible to infection by S. aureus and increased pathology in a model of atopic dermatitis. Topical colonization with a defined consortium of human skin commensals restored barrier competence in germ free skin and during epicutaneous sensitization; these effects were dependent on keratinocyte AHR. We reveal a fundamental role for the commensal skin microbiota in directing skin barrier formation and repair through the AHR, with far-reaching implications for the numerous skin disorders characterized by disrupted epidermal differentiation and/or barrier competence.

Microarray analysis of CA-AhR transgenic mice

Project description:We have generated transgenic mice expressing constitutively activated aryl hydrocarbon receptor (CA-AhR) to examine the biological consequences of AhR activation..
