Project description:Comparing molecular signatures of psoriasis and eczema in patients co-affected by both diseases provides a comprehensive understanding of disease pathogenesis as well as a diagnostic tool to differentiate these widespread inflammatory skin diseases. In patients affected by both psoriasis and non-atopic or atopic eczema simultaneously (n=24), whole genome expression arrays of psoriasis, eczema, and non-involved skin were performed Arrays MQ_35 and MQ_41 did not pass quality control and thus were not normalized and were excluded from this Series.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Homo sapiens inflammatory skin diseases (whole skin biospies): Psoriasis (Pso), vs Atopic Dermatitis (AD) vs Lichen planus (Li), vs Contact Eczema (KE), vs Healthy control (KO) In recent years, different genes and proteins have been highlighted as potential biomarkers for psoriasis, one of the most common inflammatory skin diseases worldwide. However, most of these markers are not psoriasis-specific but also found in other inflammatory disorders. We performed an unsupervised cluster analysis of gene expression profiles in 150 psoriasis patients and other inflammatory skin diseases (atopic dermatitis, lichen planus, contact eczema, and healthy controls). We identified a cluster of IL-17/TNFα-associated genes specifically expressed in psoriasis, among which IL-36γ was the most outstanding marker. In subsequent immunohistological analyses IL-36γ was confirmed to be expressed in psoriasis lesions only. IL-36γ peripheral blood serum levels were found to be closely associated with disease activity, and they decreased after anti-TNFα-treatment. Furthermore, IL-36γ immunohistochemistry was found to be a helpful marker in the histological differential diagnosis between psoriasis and eczema in diagnostically challenging cases. These features highlight IL-36γ as a valuable biomarker in psoriasis patients, both for diagnostic purposes and measurement of disease activity during the clinical course. Furthermore, IL-36γ might also provide a future drug target, due to its potential amplifier role in TNFα- and IL-17 pathways in psoriatic skin inflammation.

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:Anti-TNF-alpha therapy has made a significant impact on the treatment of psoriasis. Despite being designed to neutralize TNF-alpha activity, the mechanism of action of these agents in the resolution of psoriasis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to better understand the mechanism of action of etanercept by examining very early changes in the lesional skin of psoriasis patients. 20 chronic plaque psoriasis patients were enrolled and received 50mg etanercept twice weekly. Skin biopsies were obtained before treatment and on days 1, 3, 7 and 14 post-treatment. Skin mRNA expression was analysed by microarray. Twenty individuals with chronic plaque psoriasis were enrolled (age range 18-75 years). Entry criteria included age greater than 18 years and stable plaque-type psoriasis involving at least 10% body surface area. Exclusion criteria included use of systemic psoriasis therapy within 4 weeks, topical therapy within 2 weeks, or severe co-morbid diseases. For 12 weeks, subjects received etanercept (Enbrel) 50mg twice a week subcutaneously. At baseline, 6 mm punch biopsies were obtained under local anaesthesia (lidocaine) from uninvolved skin and a target plaque. Subsequent biopsies were taken on days 1, 3, 7 and 14 of therapy from the same target plaque.

Project description:Background: Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disease primarily affecting the skin. Approximately one-third of psoriasis patients develop joint involvement and are diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). While, inIn adult-onset disease, adults, the development of arthritis usually follows skin psoriasis, but approximately 15% experience arthritis first, which can delay diagnosis. While the pathophysiology of psoriasis and PsA is incompletely understood, epigenetic dysregulation affecting CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells has been suggested. Objectives: This project aimed to identify disease-associated DNA methylation signatures in CD4+ T-cells from psoriasis and PsA patients that may be used as diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers. Methods: PBMCs were collected from 12 patients with chronic plaque skin psoriasis and 8 PsA patients, and 8 healthy controls. CD4+ T-cells were separated through FACS sorting, and DNA methylation profiling was performed (Illumina EPIC850K arrays). Bioinformatic analyses, including gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis, were performed using R software. To identify genes under the control of interferon (IFN), the Interferome database was consulted, and DNA Methylation Scores were calculated. Results: Numbers and proportions of CD4+ T-cell subsets (naïve, central memory, effector memory, CD45RA re-expressing effector memory cells) did not vary between controls, skin psoriasis and PsA patients. 883 differentially methylated positions (DMPs) affecting 548 genes were identified between healthy controls and “all” psoriasis patients. Principal component and partial least-squares discriminant analysis separated controls from skin psoriasis and PsA patients. GO analysis considering promoter DMPs delivered hypermethylation of genes involved in “regulation of wound healing, spreading of epidermal cells”, “negative regulation of cell-substrate junction organization” and “negative regulation of focal adhesion assembly”. Comparing controls and “all” psoriasis, a majority of DMPs mapped to IFN-related genes (69.2%). Notably, DNA methylation profiles also distinguished skin psoriasis from PsA patients (2,949 DMPs/1,084 genes) through genes affecting “cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor activity” and “cAMP-dependent protein kinase regulator activity” (GO analysis). Treatment with cytokine inhibitors (IL-17/TNF) corrected DNA methylation patterns of IL-17/TNF-associated genes, and methylation scores correlated with skin disease activity scores (PASI). Conclusion: DNA methylation profiles in CD4+ T-cells discriminate between skin psoriasis and PsA. DNA methylation signatures may be applied for quantification of disease activity and patient stratification towards individualized treatment. The aim of this study was to identify disease-associated DNA methylation signatures in CD4+ T-cells from patients with psoriasis and PsA that may be used as diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers to inform treatment and care.
