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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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

Project description: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.

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>

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.

Single Cell Sequencing of Human Langerhans Cells Identifies Altered Gene Expression Profiles in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by dysregulated T cell immunity and skin microbiome dysbiosis with predominance of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Emerging evidence suggests a role for S. aureus in exacerbating AD skin inflammation. Interestingly, specific glycosylation of S. aureus cell wall structures amplifies skin inflammation through interaction with Langerhans cells (LCs). However, the role of LCs in AD remains poorly characterized. Here, we performed single cell RNA-sequencing of primary epidermal LCs and dermal T cells isolated from skin biopsies of AD patients and healthy controls, alongside specific glycoanalysis of S. aureus strains isolated from the AD lesions. Our findings reveal four LC subpopulations, including two steady-state clusters (LC1 and LC1H) and two pro-inflammatory/matured subsets (LC2 and migratory LCs). The latter two subsets were enriched in AD skin. AD LCs showed enhanced expression of C-type lectin receptors, the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεR1), and activation of prostaglandin and leukotrienes biosynthesis pathways, as well as upregulated transcriptional signatures related to T cell activation pathways and increased expression of CCL17 (specifically LC2) compared to healthy LCs. Correspondingly, T helper 2 and regulatory T cell populations were increased in AD lesions. Our study provides proof-of-concept for an active role of LCs in connecting the S. aureus-T cell axis in the AD inflammatory cycle.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Stat3f/f K5cre Skin Keratinocytes Transcriptomes

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common inflammatory skin disease. Stat3 mutation is a major cause of hyper IgE syndrome (HIES), which consistently represent AD like eczematous dermatitis. Based on multi-dimensional transcriptome analysis in pre- and post-flares skin, dermatitis phenotype was controlled by sequential two steps of Stat3 deficiency and environmental pathogenic stimuli. The Stat3 deficiency determined the barrier integrity that lowered threshold of inflammation, but this step was not sufficient to form pathogenicity. Transcriptome data indicated that emergence of dermatitis phenotype need to trigger robust activation of NFB pathway and TH2 cells. Continuous colonization of Staphylococcus aureus was an environmental stimulus to lower the activation threshold of TH2 inflammation in the skin.

Exploring the Wound Healing, Anti-Inflammatory, Anti-Pathogens and Proteomic Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria on Keratinocytes

Project description:The topical application of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is recognized as a useful approach to improve skin health. This work aims to characterize by a multidisciplinary approach, the wound healing, anti-inflammatory, anti-pathogens and proteomic effects of six LAB lysates, belonging to the genus Lactobacillus. Our results demonstrated that the tested LAB stimulated the proliferation of keratinocytes, and that L. plantarum 07 and L. salivarius SGL 19 accelerated the re-epithelization by inducing keratinocyte migration. The bacterial lysates also reduced the secretion of specific pro-inflammatory mediators from keratinocytes. Furthermore, viable L. salivarius SGL 19 and L. fermentum SGL 10 had anti-pathogen effects against S. aureus and S. pyogenes, while L. brevis SGL 12 and L. paracasei SGL 04 inhibited S. aureus and S. pyogenes, respectively. The tested lactobacilli lysates also induced specific proteome modulation of the exposed keratinocytes, involving dysregulation of proteins (such as interleukin enhancer-binding factor 2 and ATP-dependent RNA helicase) and pathways (such as cytokine, NF-kB, Hedgehog, and RUNX signaling) associated with their specific wound healing and anti-inflammatory effects. This study indicates the different potential of selected lactobacilli, suggesting that they may be successfully used in the future together with conventional therapies to bring relief from skin disorders.
