Effect of locally applied enalapril maleate on the gene expression profile in dorsal skin after UVB irradiation

ABSTRACT: Renin-angiotensin system regulates cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and tissue remodeling in skin. Previouly, we reported that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) expression and angiotensin II level were enhanced by repeated UVB-irradiation of hairless mice skin, and ACE inhibitor enalapril maleate accelerated recovery of UVB-induced wrinkle. In present study, we analyzed gene expression with DNA microarray and protein distribution with immunofluorecence method to clarify the process of wrinkle repairing with enalapril maleate in UVB-irradiated hairless mouse. In microarray analysis, we detected up-regulation of various extracullular matrix (ECM) genes and ECM related genes. In immunofluorescence, we confirm that type 1 collagen, fibrillin1, elastin, and dystroglycan 1 were decreased by repeated UVB-irradiation and the distribution of these components were improved by enalapril maleate treatment. In addition, ADAMTS2 and MMP-14, these were perticipate in ECM structure formation and degradation, were increased in enalapril maleate-treated mouse skin. While the functions of these molecules in skin is not clear yet, it is suggested that these molecules participate in improvement of wrinkles induced by UVB-irradiation.

Male hairless mice of the SKH-1 strain were purchased from Charles River Laboratories Japan, Inc. (Tokyo, Japan). These animals were approximately 6 weeks old at the start of the experiment. They were fed a commercial diet (CRF-1, Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) ad libitum and allowed free access to water. The dorsal region of the mouse was repeatedly irradiated with UVB for 10 weeks. Enalapril maleate treatment was started at 1 week after 10-week irradiation. One hundred microliters of 1% w/v enalapril maleate dissolved in 30 vol % ethanol solution or 30 vol % ethanol (control) was applied 5 times a week for 2 consecutive weeks to the whole dorsal skin of each of the mice. All experimental procedures using mice were approved by the Animal Experiment Committee of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (approval number 24-82). The dosal region of the mouse was repeatedly irradiated with UVB for 10 weeks. Enalapril maleate treatment was started at 1 week after 10-week irradiation. One hundred microliters of 1% w/v enalapril maleate dissolved in 30 vol % ethanol solution or 30 vol % ethanol (control) was applied 5 times a week for 2 or 6 consecutive weeks to the whole dorsal skin of each of the mice. Each of the experimental groups comprised 6 mice. After 2- or 6-week drug treatment, skin samples were collected for microarray analysis.

Project description:Phototherapy is an effective therapy and may induce remission of psoriasis. Previous studies have established the action spectrum of clearance and that apoptosis is differentially induced in psoriasis plaques by clinically effective wavelengths of ultraviolet B (UVB). The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating psoriasis plaque resolution by studying the transcriptomic response to clinically effective (311nm, narrow band) UVB compared to a clinically ineffective (290nm) wavelength. We irradiated lesional psoriatic skin in vivo with a single 3 MED (minimal erythemal dose) of 311nm or 290nm wavelength of UVB and performed skin biopsies at 4h or 18h post irradiation and from un-irradiated lesional skin. Forty-eight micro-dissected epidermal samples were analysed using the Illumina DASL array platform from 20 psoriatic patients. Bioinformatic analysis identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with 311nm but not 290nm irradiation; these DEGs were subject to Ingenuity pathway and upstream regulator analysis. The number of differentially regulated epidermal genes was greatest at 18h following UVB, after irradiation with clinically effective (311nm) UVB. The main pathways differentially affected by 311nm UVB only were apoptosis, necrosis, acute phase signalling, p53 signalling and chemotaxis. The greatest fold change observed was a 7.5 fold increase in expression of CDKN1A (WAF1/ p21), the p53 target gene, following irradiation with 311nm UVB but not 290nm (clinically ineffective UVB). Acute phase, LXR and PTEN signalling, dendritic cell maturation, granulocyte adhesion and atherosclerotic pathways were also differentially regulated by 311nm compared to 290nm UVB. This work provides insight into the molecular mechanisms regulating psoriatic remodelling in response to UV phototherapy, supports a key role for apoptosis and cell death in psoriasis plaque clearance, and identifies a number of novel therapeutic pathways. Further studies may lead to development of potential biomarkers to assess which patients are more likely to respond to UVB.
