Project description:We sought to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the effects of TNF-α and IL-17 on the keratinocyte gene profile in order to identify genes that might be co-regulated by these cytokines. We then sought to determine how genes that were synergistically activated by both cytokines relate to the psoriasis transcriptome. Here, we identified 160 unique genes that were synergistically up-regulated by IL-17 and TNF-α and 188 unique genes where the two cytokines had at least an additive effect. Among highly up-regulated genes were those involved in neutrophil and lymphocyte chemotaxis, inflammation, and epidermal differentiation. Synergistically up-regulated genes included some of the highest expressed genes in lesional psoriatic skin with an impressive correlation between IL-17/TNF-α induced genes and the psoriasis gene signature. In conclusion, keratinocytes may be key drivers of pathogenetic inflammatory circuits in psoriasis through integrating responses to TNF-α and IL-17. This may explain high efficacy of targeting psoriasis with either anti-TNF-α or agents that block Th17 T-cells/IL-17 and has important implications for the development of new therapeutic agents. Comparison of keratinocyte responses to IL-17, TNF-α (1 ng mL-1 and 10 ng mL-1), and the combination of both cytokines in psoriasis.

Project description:Crosstalk between keratin-forming cells and aberrant immune cells due to immune imbalance is a key factor in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Most of the current clinical treatments provide rapid symptomatic relief but bring side effects that should not be ignored. Tetrastigma hemsleyanum polysaccharides (THP) have significant immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we used imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis mouse model and LPS/IL-6-stimulated HaCaT cell model. The potential and mechanism of action of THP for psoriasis treatment were assessed by Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) score, histopathology, flow cytometry, Western blot, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The signs and symptoms of psoriatic mice induced by IMQ were significantly relieved by percutaneous administration of THP, including the improvement of psoriatic skin signs (erythema, folds, scales), pathological changes, decreased PASI score, and decreased spleen index. Results of in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that THP inhibits abnormal cell proliferation and excessive inflammation at skin lesions, balances Th17 immune cells, and blocks the keratinocyte-Th17 cell cycle, thus playing a role in psoriasis treatment by a mechanism that may be related to the regulation of the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Project description:Herein we demonstrate the efficacy of an unbiased proteomics screening approach for studying protein expression changes in the KC-Tie2 psoriasis mouse model, identifying multiple protein expression changes in the mouse and validating these changes in human psoriasis. KC-Tie2 mouse skin samples (n=3) were compared with littermate controls (n=3) using gel-based fractionation followed by label-free protein expression analysis. 5482 peptides mapping to 1281 proteins were identified and quantitated: 105 proteins exhibited fold-changes ≥2.0 including: stefin A1 (average fold change of 342.4 and an average P = 0.0082; cystatin A, human orthologue); slc25a5 (average fold change of 46.2 and an average P = 0.0318); serpinb3b (average fold change of 35.6 and an average P = 0.0345; serpinB1, human orthologue); and kallikrein related peptidase 6 (average fold change of 4.7 and an average P = 0.2474; KLK6). We independently confirmed mouse gene expression-based increases of selected genes including serpinb3b (17.4-fold, P < 0.0001), KLK6 (9.0-fold, P = 0.002), stefin A1 (7.3-fold; P < 0.001) and slc25A5 (1.5-fold; P = 0.05) using qRT-PCR on a second cohort of animals (n=8). Parallel LC/MS/MS analyses on these same samples verified protein-level increases of 1.3-fold (slc25a5; P < 0.05), 29,000-fold (stefinA1; P < 0.01), 322-fold (KLK6; P < 0.0001) between KC-Tie2 and control mice. To underscore the utility and translatability of our combined approach, we analyzed gene and protein expression levels in psoriasis patient skin and primary keratinocytes vs. healthy controls. Increases in gene expression for slc25a5 (1.8-fold), cystatin A (3.0-fold), KLK6 (5.8-fold) and serpinB1 (76-fold; all P < 0.05) were observed between healthy controls and involved lesional psoriasis skin and primary psoriasis keratinocytes. Moreover slc25a5, cystatin A, KLK6 and serpinB1 protein were all increased in lesional psoriasis skin compared to normal skin. These results highlight the usefulness of preclinical disease models using readily-available mouse skin and demonstrate the utility of proteomic approaches for identifying novel peptides/proteins that are differentially regulated in psoriasis that could serve as sources of auto-antigens or provide novel therapeutic targets for the development of new anti-psoriatic treatments.

Project description:Scalp psoriasis shows a variable clinical spectrum and in many cases poses a great therapeutic challenge. However, it remains unknown whether the immune response of scalp psoriasis differs from understood pathomechanisms of psoriasis on other skin areas. We sought to determine the cellular and mollecular phenotype of scalp psoriasis by performing a comparative analysis of scalp vs skin using lesional and nonlesional samples from 20 Caucasian subjects with untreated moderate to severe psoriasis and significant scalp involvement, and 10 control subjects without psoriasis. Our results suggest that even in the scalp psoriasis is a disease of the inter-follicular skin. The immune mechanisms that mediate scalp psoriasis were found to be similar to those involved in skin psoriasis. However, the magnitude of dysregulation, number of differentially expressed genes, and enrichment of the psoriatic genomic fingerprinting were more prominent in skin lesions. Furthermore, the scalp transcriptome showed increased modulation of several gene-sets, particularly those induced by interferon-gamma, compared with skin psoriasis which was mainly associated with activation of TNFâµ/L-17/IL-22-induced keratinocyte response genes. We also detected differences in expression of gene-sets involving negative regulation, epigenetic regulation, epidermal differentiation, and dendritic cell or Th1/Th17/Th22-related T-cell processes. To define the transcriptomic profile of scalp skin, punch biopsies (6 mm diameter) were obtained from 20 Caucasian patients with untreated moderate to severe psoriasis with significative scalp involvement and 10 control subjects without psoriasis (N). Lesional (LS) samples were isolated from the infiltrated border of a plaque of psoriasis. Non lesional (NL) samples were taken from scalp areas with no visible psoriasis between the infiltrated plaques.

Project description:Epigenetics plays a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris and generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) through DNA methylation modifications that cause changes in immune responses. Psoriasis vulgaris is dominated by autoimmune responses, driven by Th17 cells producing IL-17, whereas GPP is dominated by autoinflammatory responses resulting from IL-36 dysregulation and neutrophil hyperactivation. Objective: This study aims to determine the DNA methylation profile and analyze the differences in IL-17 and IL-36 levels in both psoriasis phenotypes and healthy controls. Method: This study employed a cross-sectional design, comprising 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris, three patients with GPP, and 13 healthy controls. DNA methylation profiles were assessed using Reduced Representation Methylation Sequencing, while IL-17 and IL-36 levels were assessed using ELISA. Results: Increased 5-methyl cytosine (5mC) was identified in psoriasis vulgaris and GPP compared to healthy controls. Increased 5mC at the FOXP3 promoter was identified in GPP and psoriasis vulgaris with high IL-17 levels, while decreased 5mC at the CARD14 promoter was identified in psoriasis vulgaris with high IL-17 levels. GPP showed higher IL-17 levels than healthy controls (p<0.05). IL-17 levels in psoriasis vulgaris showed no significant difference compared to GPP and healthy controls (p>0.05). IL-36 levels did not differ significantly among the three groups, with the highest IL-36 levels observed in psoriasis vulgaris (p>0.05). Conclusion: Increased DNA methylation in the FOXP3 gene promoter is predicted to cause high IL- 17 levels in psoriasis vulgaris and GPP, while IL-36 levels are higher only in psoriasis vulgaris.
