Bacterial Pyocyanin Inducible KRT6A Accelerates Closure of Epithelial Defect Under Conditions of Mitochondrial Dysfunction

ABSTRACT: Repair of epithelial defect is complicated by infection and related metabolites. Pyocyanin is one such metabolite that is secreted during Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Keratinocyte migration is required for the closure of skin epithelial defects. The current work sought to understand pyocyanin-keratinocyte interaction and its significance in tissue repair. SILAC proteomics identified mitochondrial dysfunction as the top pathway responsive to pyocyanin exposure in human keratinocytes. Consistently, functional studies demonstrated mitochondrial stress, depletion of reducing equivalents, and ATP. Strikingly, despite all the above, pyocyanin markedly accelerated keratinocyte migration. Investigation of underlying mechanisms revealed a novel function of KRT6A in keratinocytes. KRT6A was pyocyanin inducible and accelerated closure of epithelial defect. Acceleration of closure was associated with poor quality healing including compromised expression of apical junction proteins. This work recognizes KRT6A for its role of enhancing keratinocyte migration under conditions of threat posed by pyocyanin. Qualitatively deficient junctional proteins under conditions of defensive acceleration of keratinocyte migration explains why an infected wound close with deficient skin barrier function as previously reported.

Expression data from human keratinocytes after scratch wounds in vitro

Project description:In skin homeostasis, dermal fibroblasts are responsible for coordinating the migration and differentiation of overlying epithelial keratinocytes. As hairy skin heals faster than non-hairy skin, we hypothesised that follicular fibroblasts would accelerate skin re-epithelialisation after injury faster than interfollicular fibroblasts. We found that hair follicle dermal papilla fibroblast conditioned media (DPFi CM) could significantly accelerate wound closure compared to controls partly due to the presence of sAXL in this media. We used microarrays to identify upregulated and downregulated genes in human epidermal keratinocytes incubated with sAXL, DPFi CM and Epilife (keratinocyte growth media;control) after scratch wounds in vitro.

Transcriptional signature of wounded keratinocytes reveals selective roles for ERK1/2, P38 and PI3K signalling pathways

Project description:Covering denuded dermal surface after injury requires migration, proliferation and differentiation of skin keratinocytes. To clarify the major traits controlling these intermingled biological events, we surveyed the genomic modifications occurring during the course of a scratch closure of cultured human keratinocytes. Using a DNA microarray approach, we report the identification of 161 new markers of epidermal repair. Expression data, combined with functional analysis performed with specific inhibitors of ERK, p38[MAPK] and PI3 kinases, demonstrate that kinase pathways exert very selective functions by precisely controlling the expression of specific genes. Inhibition of the ERK pathway totally blocks the wound closure and inactivates many early transcription factors and EGF-type growth factors. P38[MAPK] inhibition only delays “healing”, probably in line with the control of genes involved in the propagation of injury-initiated signalling. In contrast, PI3 kinase inhibition accelerates the scratch closure and potentiates the scratch-dependent stimulation of three genes related to epithelial cell transformation, namely HAS3, HBEGF and Ets1. Our results define in vitro human keratinocyte wound closure as a reparation process resulting from a fine balance between positive signals controlled by ERK and p38[MAPK], and negative ones triggered off by PI3 kinase. The perturbation of any of these pathways might lead to dysfunction in the healing process, as those observed in pathological wounding phenotypes, such as hypertrophic scars or keloids.

Setd2 Epidermal Deficiency Promotes Cutaneous Wound Healing via Activation of AKT/mTOR Signaling (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Skin wound healing is one of the major prevalent medical problems in the worldwide. Wound healing involves multi-process synergy and re-epithelialization is an essential part of wound healing. Histone H3K36 tri-methylase Setd2 has been extensively studied in different biological processes and diseases. However, the function of Setd2 in the wound healing remains unclear. To elucidate the biological role of Setd2 in the skin wound healing, conditional gene targeting was employed to establish epidermis-specific Setd2-deficient mice. We found that Setd2 deficiency resulted in accelerated re-epithelialization during cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocytes proliferation and migration. Furthermore, we demonstrated that loss of Setd2 activated the AKT/mTOR pathway, and pharmacological inhibitions of AKT and mTOR with MK2206 and rapamycin delayed wound closure, respectively. In conclusion, our results reveal the essential role of Setd2 in skin wound healing that is Setd2 loss promotes cutaneous wound healing via activation of AKT/mTOR signaling.

Global microarray analysis of changes of gene expression in the epidermis of K14-caSmad1 mice

Project description:Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling plays a key role in the control of skin development and postnatal remodelling by regulating keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. To study the role of BMPs in wound-induced epidermal repair, we used transgenic mice overexpressing the BMP downstream component Smad1 under the control of a K14 promoter as an in vivo model, as well as ex vivo and in vitro assays. K14-caSmad1 mice exhibited retarded wound healing associated with significant inhibition of proliferation and increased apoptosis in healing wound epithelium. Furthermore, microarray and qRT-PCR analyses revealed decreased expression of a number of cytoskeletal/cell motility-associated genes including wound-associated keratins (Krt16, Krt17) and Myo5a, in the epidermis of K14- caSmad1 mice versus wild-type controls during wound healing. BMP treatment significantly inhibited keratinocyte migration ex vivo, and primary keratinocytes of K14-caSmad1 mice showed retarded migration compared to wild-type controls. Finally, siRNA-mediated silencing of Bmpr-1B in primary mouse keratinocytes accelerated cell migration and was associated with increased expression of Krt16, Krt17 and Myo5a compared to controls. Thus, this study demonstrates that BMPs inhibit keratinocyte proliferation, cytoskeletal organization and migration in regenerating skin epithelium during wound healing, and raises a possibility for using BMP antagonists for the management of chronic wounds. Two-condition experiment, Wild type vs. Smad1 overexpressing mice. Biological replicates: 2 replicates.

Expression data from isolated keratinocytes from mouse skin with or without Ovol1 and Ovol2 expression

Project description:During epithelial tissue morphogenesis, developmental progenitor cells undergo dynamic adhesive and cytoskeletal remodeling to trigger proliferation and migration. Transcriptional mechanisms that restrict such mild form of epithelial plasticity to maintain lineage-restricted differentiation in committed epithelial tissues are poorly understood. Here we report that simultaneous ablation of transcriptional repressor-encoding Ovol1 and Ovol2 results in expansion and blocked terminal differentiation of embryonic epidermal progenitor cells. Conversely, mice overexpressing Ovol2 in their skin epithelia exhibit precocious differentiation accompanied by smaller progenitor cell compartments. We show that Ovol1/2-deficient epidermal cells fail to undertake alpha-catenin–driven actin cytoskeletal reorganization and adhesive maturation, and exhibit changes that resemble epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Remarkably, these alterations as well as defective terminal differentiation are reversed upon depletion of EMT-promoting transcriptional factor Zeb1. Collectively, our findings reveal Ovol-Zeb1-a-catenin sequential repression and highlight novel functions of Ovol as gatekeepers of epithelial adhesion and differentiation by inhibiting progenitor-like traits and epithelial plasticity. Isolated keratinocytes from control, Ovol1 knockout and Ovol1/2 double knockout were physically isolated for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. In order to identify primary changes, we isolated the keratinocytes from mouse skin and allowed them to grow in culture for 2-5 days.

MMP10 degradomics in keratinocytes

Project description:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important players in skin homeostasis, wound repair, and in the pathogenesis of skin cancer. One member – MMP10 – is specifically expressed in wound keratinocytes and in epithelial cancer cells, but its function is unclear and epidermal substrates are poorly characterized. To unravel the role of MMP10 in the skin, we employed Terminal Amine Isotopic Labeling of Substrates (TAILS), an iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics technique for the discovery of protease substrates and their cleavage sites, to monitor MMP10-dependent proteolysis over time in secretomes from keratinocytes. By time-resolved abundance clustering of neo-N termini we revealed a cleavage site specificity preference of MMP10 for glutamate in the P1 position and identified the α6 integrin subunit, cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 and dermokine as novel MMP10 substrates. Moreover, we confirmed the same MMP10-dependent processing of dermokine in vivo by TAILS analysis of epidermis from transgenic mice that overexpress a constitutively active mutant of MMP10 in basal keratinocytes. Since these substrates have been associated with cell adhesion, differentiation and senescence, MMP10 might contribute to modulation of these processes during skin repair.
