Project description:Adult mammalian skin wound healing is typically accompanied by fibrotic scar that impairs normal skin function and regeneration of skin appendages. Interestingly, however, in adult mice, large severe skin injuries exhibit de novo formation of HFs following severe skin injuries (a phenomenon termed wound-induced HF neogenesis, WIHN). Understanding the competent cell types and molecular mechanisms that enable regenerative wound healing will be critical for developing treatments that restore skin function after injury. We described the existence of an adult bipotent hair follicle dermal stem cell (hfDSC) that functions to regenerate the connective tissue sheath and to populate the DP with new cells (Rahmani et al., 2014). Based on this, we hypothesized that the mesenchymal cells comprised within the neogenic HFs might originate from hfDSCs. To test this, we employed αSMACreERT2:ROSAYFP and Hic1CreERT2:TDTmt mice to examine the contribution of hfDSCs or hfDSCs and reticular/hypodermal progenitors, respectively, to the formation of neodermis and regeneration of de novo HFs. Mice received full-thickness excision wounds (>1 cm2) and then harvested at 18-140 days post-wounding (dpw). αSMA+ve and Hic1-lineage cells were activated upon wounding, migrated into the wound, and contributed to both DP and DS in almost all de novo-formed HFs. Surprisingly, hfDSCs contributed only a minority of cells (20%) to nascent DP cells, whereas Hic1-lineage cells generated >90% of the neogenic DP cells. In both cases, cells integrating into neogenic HF mesenchyme appeared to restore the hfDSC pool, since they repopulated the neogenic mesenchyme over successive regenerative hair cycles. Finally, using an ex vivo HF formation assay, we found that prospectively isolated extrafollicular Hic-lineage cells could participate in HF formation when exposed to a permissive environment. Our data reveal that despite their origin in the reticular/hypodermis, Hic1-lineage dermal progenitors are able to adopt a regenerative response during wound healing if provided with a permissive local environment.

Project description:The tumor suppressor gene HIC1 (Hypermethylated in Cancer 1) is essential for mammalian development and is epigenetically silenced in many human tumors. Functionally, HIC1 is involved in a complex pathway regulating P53 tumor-suppression activity. HIC1 encodes a sequence-specific transcriptional repressor containing five Krüppel-like C2H2 zinc fingers but only a few genes regulated by HIC1 have been reported, including SIRT1.

Project description:This study aimed to further our understanding of the role that hypermethylatioted in cancer 1 (HIC1) plays in prostate cancer (PCa) development. Microarrays were searched for some genes that had correlated expression with HIC1 mRNA. Our data showed that HIC1 promoter hypermethylation was presented in cell lines, tissues and plasma of PCa patients. According to fold-change screening between restoring expression of HIC1 and its respective control cells, both up-regulated and down-regulated genes were commonly observed in PC3 and C4-2B cells. The restoring expression HIC1 in PCa lines were respectively noted as PC3-HIC1 and C4-2B-HIC1 cells, and the respective controls were noted as C4-2B-GFP and PC3-GFP cells.

Project description:This study aimed to further our understanding of the role that hypermethylatioted in cancer 1 (HIC1) plays in breast cancer progression. Microarrays were searched for some genes that had correlated expression with HIC1 mRNA. According to fold-change screening between restoring expression of HIC1 and its respective control cells in MDA-MB-231 cells, or HIC1 knockdown and its respective control cells in HBL100, both up-regulated and down-regulated genes were shown. The restoring expression HIC1 in MDA-MB-231 cells were respectively noted as MDAMB-231-HIC1 and the respective controls were noted as MDA-MB-231-GFP cells. HIC1 knockdown in HBL100 cells were noted as HBL100-shHIC1 and the respective control HBL100-shCtrl cell.

Project description:To identify the target of miR-212, miR-132 and HIC1, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling on the human breast cancer MCF7 cells. To generate miR-212/132 or HIC1 inducible MCF7 cells, doxycycline-dependent miR-212/132 or HIC1 gene expression system was used. Either Tet-ON miR-212/132 MCF7 or Tet-ON HIC1 MCF7 were treated with 1μg/ml of Doxycycline for 36 hours with EMEM containing 0.01 mg/ml bovine insulin and 10% FCS. Two independent experiments were performed.

Project description:Salamanders, such as the Mexican axolotl, are some of the few vertebrates fortunate in their ability to regenerate diverse structures after injury. Unlike mammals they are able to regenerate a fully functional spinal cord after injury. Throughout human life, many cells and certain tissues, such as hair follicle stem cells and liver, can be continuously replaced to maintain functional integrity in response to normal daily wear and tear. However, the human response to more serious tissue damage is limited to relatively primitive wound healing, whereby collagenous scar tissue fills the injury site, assuring the tissue’s structural integrity but often resulting in a debilitating loss of functionality. In contrast many vertebrates, including axolotls, have remarkable regenerative capacity including the functional regeneration of full thickness wounds. Here, we have identified a novel role for SALL4 in regulating collagen transcriptional after injury that is essential to ensure perfect skin regeneration in axolotl.

Project description:We have previously described the reindeer antler velvet as a highly unique mammalian model of adult skin regeneration as wounds on backskin form a raised, contractile scar devoid of appendages or pigment, whereas identical wounds in antler velvet exhibit scar-less regeneration. To ask whether regenerative capacity is inherent to cells within the velvet (and not due to factors derived from the antler environment), we transplanted full thickness velvet skin grafts onto dorsal backskin. This scRNA-Seq sample profiles cells within the ectopic velvet graft to assess their molecular resemblance to regenerative velvet or non-regenerative dorsal backskin.

Project description:To explore the role of HIC1 silencing in regulating PCa EMT development, Human Gene Expression Microarrays were searched for altered genes upon silencing HIC1 expression in C4-2B and DU145 cells. According to fold-change screening betweenHIC1-silenced and its respective control cells, both up-regulated and down-regulated genes were shown. Human PCa cell lines C4-2B and DU145 were transfected with lenti-virus (shRNA targeting HIC1 and respective control). HIC1-silenced cells were respectively noted as C4-2B-shHIC1 and DU145-shHIC1. Their respective control cells were respectively noted as C4-2B-shctrl and DU145-shctrl.
