Dysregulation of cell migration by matrix metalloproteinases in geleophysic dysplasia

ABSTRACT: Geleophysic dysplasia (GD) is characterized by short stature, brachydactyly, joint limitations, a distinctive facial appearance, as well as cardiac and respiratory dysfunction that can be life-threatening. GD is caused by pathogenic variants in the ADAMTSL2, FBN1, or LTBP3 genes. While dermal fibroblasts derived from affected individuals have shown poor organization of the extracellular matrix (ECM), it remains elusive how the disorganized ECM contributes to GD pathogenesis. To understand the molecular mechanisms in GD, we isolated and characterized primary human dermal fibroblasts from affected individuals with ADAMTSL2 and FBN1 variants. We found that the secretion of ECM proteins including ADAMTSL2, FBN1, and Fibronectin were impaired in GD fibroblasts. Increased cell migration was observed in GD fibroblasts carrying ADAMTSL2 or FBN1 variants, which was associated with up-regulation of MMP-1 and MMP-14, two proteases related to cell mobility. The enhanced cell migration and up-regulation of MMP-1 and MMP-14 were corroborated in mouse primary dermal fibroblasts carrying pathogenic variants in Adamtsl2 and in lung and heart tissues from Adamtsl2-knockout mice. A pan MMP inhibitor, GM6001, inhibited the migration of GD fibroblasts. Overall, our results suggest that MMP-1/-14 up-regulation play a role in the development of GD and may be utilized as a treatment target.

Solar simulated ultraviolet radiation induces histone 3 methylation changes in the gene promoters of matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 3 in primary human dermal fibroblasts [II]

Project description:Skin damage from solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) accumulates in the dermal extracellular matrix (ECM) and contributes to photoaging. Following UVR exposure, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are secreted by dermal fibroblasts to repair and remodel the ECM. Molecular signaling pathways delineating the induction of MMPs are currently well-defined; however, the effects of UV exposure on epigenetic mechanisms of MMP induction are not as well understood. An epigenetic mechanism would further describe how MMP genes are regulated in response to UV. In this study, we examined solar simulated UVR (ssUVR)-induced gene expression changes and alterations to histone methylation in the promoters of MMP1 and MMP3 in primary human dermal fibroblasts (HDF). This set of gene expression data was generated to identify photoaging related genes (including MMP) that were impacted by ssUVR exposure in our system. Primary neonatal human dermal fibroblasts (HDF) were irradiated a single time with 12 J/cm2 ssUVR. The sham treatments are negative controls (0 J/cm2 ssUVR). The cells were collected for gene expression analysis 1 day after exposure, and then 5 days after exposure. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays were used to characterize gene expression pattern alterations in response to ssUVR.

The cells were collected for gene expression analysis 24 hours after exposure.

Transcriptomic effect of Fbn1 G234D/G234D mutation on neonatal skin fibroblast

Project description:This study contains RNA-seq analysis of neonatal dermal fibroblasts from mice with Fbn1 G234D/G234D mutation to uncover its impact on ECM gene expression, potentially shedding light on the tight skin phenotype. While both wild-type (WT) and mutant fibroblasts showed differences, two of the mutants exhibited more significant changes, aligning with the early onset of the disease. These earlier data was deposited in GSE268383. In this study we added 2 more wild type fibroblasts and 3 more homozygous mutant cells to ascertain the features we obtained prevously. As previously noted, there was no obvious change in ECM and ECM-modifying genes, such as the LOX family, Fbn1, and TGFβ/BMP signaling genes; while the mutants displayed upregulation of muscle developmental genes (e.g., Myod1, Myog, Myh family), immune response, and cell-cell adhesion/cytoskeletal genes. In line with previous data, downregulated genes were still enriched for histone genes and developmental transcription factors, hinting at potential chromatin/transcriptional state modifications underlying the tight skin phenotype. These transcriptomic findings underscore the need for further investigation into the mechanobiological implications of Fbn1G234D/G234D fibroblasts.

ANTXR2 Deficiency Promotes Cellular Senescence and Chondroid Differentiation in Hyaline Fibromatosis Syndrome Fibroblasts

Project description:Mutations in anthrax toxin receptor 2 (ANTXR2) cause hyaline fibromatosis syndrome (HFS), a rare genetic disorder marked by subcutaneous nodules filled with amorphous hyaline extracellular material. In addition to these nodules, HFS patients exhibit gingival hypertrophy, joint contractures, osteolytic lesions, and, in severe cases, intractable diarrhea. The mechanisms by which ANTXR2 regulates extracellular matrix (ECM) composition and connective tissue homeostasis remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that dermal fibroblasts from HFS patients exhibit hallmarks of cellular senescence, chondroid differentiation and abnormal ECM deposition. Additionally, HFS dermal fibroblasts are refractory to matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and 9 activation, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between HFS and disorders caused by loss-of-function mutations in MMP genes. These findings underscore the essential role of ANTXR2 in maintaining dermal fibroblast identity and connective tissue homeostasis, laying the groundwork for novel therapeutic interventions for HFS.

Fibrostenotic phenotype of fibroblasts in Crohn's disease is dependent on tissue stiffness and reversed by LOX inhibition

Project description:The results of this study indicate that stenotic fibroblasts exhibit an aberrant response to tissue stiffness with reduced MMP activity, leading to a perpetuous vicious circle of ever more fibrosis formation. Altering the microenvironment by LOX inhibition increases MMP activity and decreases ECM contraction, resulting in a potential anti-fibrotic agent for Crohn’s disease.

ALKBH5-mediated m6A demethylation ameliorates extracellular matrix deposition in cutaneous pathological fibrosis [meRIP-seq]

Project description:Hypertrophic scars (HTS) are fibrotic skin disorders characterized by excessive deposition of dermal extracellular matrix (ECM), presenting significant challenges in clinical management despite incomplete understanding of their underlying mechanisms. Using MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq, our study initially revealed the direct regulatory role of ALKBH5 on ECM components in dermal fibroblasts, thereby involving in the pathogenesis of HTS.

IL-25 participates in keratinocyte-driven dermal matrix turnover and is reduced in Systemic Sclerosis epidermis

Project description:Aberrant deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) resulting in dermal fibrosis is a hallmark of systemic sclerosis (SSc). Evidence suggests that dysfunctional SSc keratinocytes may contribute to fibrosis by altering dermal homeostasis. Whether interleukin-25 (IL-25), an IL-17 family member involved in epithelial/mesenchymal/immune cell interplay takes part in skin fibrosis is unknown. Here we address the role of IL-25 in SSc skin fibrosis. Compared to healthy donor (HD), in SSc and scleroderma-like disorders the epidermis expressed significantly lower levels of IL-25. In epidermal equivalents, IL-25 regulated several molecular pathways related to wound healing and ECM remodeling. Compared to control conditioned medium (CM), the CM from IL-25-primed keratinocytes enhanced the production by fibroblasts of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), IL-6, IL-8 (p< 0.05), but not of type-I collagen (Col-I ) nor fibronectin. However, IL- 25 significantly reduced the production of Col-I when applied directly to fibroblasts. The activation of keratinocytes by IL-25 was receptor-dependent and evident after a very short incubation time (10 min), largely mediated by IL-1, suggesting enhanced and specific release of preformed mediators. These results show that IL-25 participates to skin homeostasis and its decreased expression in SSc may contribute to skin fibrosis by favoring ECM deposition over degradation.
