Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) light affects endocrinological and behavioral aspects of human sexuality via an unknown mechanism. Using a unique male-female comparative approach, we discovered that the sexual behavioral and hormonal features enhanced by UVB are mediated by the skin. In mice, UV exposure increases hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis hormone levels, resulting in enhanced ovary size, extended estrus days, and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) expression. It likewise enhances the sexual responsiveness and attractiveness of females and male-female interactions of both males and females. Conditional knockout of p53 specifically in skin keratinocytes abolished UV’s effects. In humans, UV exposure enhanced romantic passion in both genders increased testosterone levels in men. Our data, revealing that UVB triggers a skin-brain-gonadal axis through skin p53 activation, offers therapeutic opportunities for sex-steroid-related dysfunctions. We speculate that during human furless skin evolution, the skin became the front-line regulator of the response to UVB.

Project description:Considering that human skin cancer is predominantly attributed to UV radiation from sunlight, additional investigations are needed to elucidate the role of P2RY6 in UVB-induced skin carcinogenesis. Surprisingly, we find that P2ry6 deletion exhibits marked promotion to UVB-induced skin papilloma formation compared with wild-type mice, suggesting its tumor-suppressive role in UVB-induced skin cancer. Additionally, P2ry6 knockout promotes mouse skin hyperplasia induced by short-term UVB irradiation, while UDP, the ligand of P2RY6, can inhibit UVB-induced skin damage. Furthermore, UVB irradiation can significantly upregulate P2RY6 expression in mouse and human skin cells. These results indicate that P2RY6 plays a crucial protective role in resisting UVB-induced skin damage and carcinogenesis. At the molecular level, P2RY6 deletion inhibits ubiquitination and expression of XPC after UVB irradiation in keratinocytes, resulting in the accumulation of CPDs (cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers). P2RY6 deletion also activates PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo. The CPD accumulation and inflammatory responses enhanced by P2RY6 deletion are reversed by an AKT inhibitor. These findings suggest that P2RY6 acts as a tumor suppressor in UVB-induced skin cancer by regulating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Project description:Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory and hyperproliferative immune-mediated skin disorder. Narrow-band UVB (NB-UVB) phototherapy is a convenient first-line treatment of psoriasis, though the mechanisms underlying its efficacy have not been completely elucidated. In order to improve our understanding of NB-UVB phototherapy, gene expression profiling was used to characterize gene expression in lesional epidermis from psoriasis patients undergoing NB-UVB phototherapy. Increased expression of melanogenesis pathway genes was observed to be the earliest response. At the end of treatment, genes involved in diverse biological processes were affected, such as pigmentation, cell adhesion, ectodermal development and metabolism. The relationship between gene expression and treatment outcome was further studied using Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA). Gene ontology analysis showed that genes responding to phototherapy and highly correlated to treatment outcome were involved in oxidation reduction, growth and mitochondria organization. In particular SPATA18, a key regulator of mitochondria quality, was found to be significantly downregulated in psoriasis, and its upregulation following phototherapy was required for optimal clinical improvement. Our data suggest that oxidation reduction is a critical event for the resolution of psoriatic plaques.

NB-UVB irradiation was administered to the whole body two to three times a week. Treatment comprising approximately 24 sessions was given during two to three months. A total of six 4 mm diameter punch biopsies were taken from lesions on each psoriasis patient: two prior to UV treatment (pre-UV), two at the middle stage of UV treatment (after about one month of treatment, mid-UV) and two before the last treatment session (post-UV). Twelve healthy age-, sex- and skin type-matched volunteers were also recruited and two punch biopsies were taken from the buttocks. RNA was extracted from Laser capture microdissected epidermis.

Project description:Previous studies showed that SV40 transformed cells have unique DNA damage responses; further inspecting these responses by microarray provides an opportunity to discover transciprtional insights of DNA damage responses after UVB irradiation. This study is used to comapre to GSE7589, our previous study of human normal lung fibroblast after UVB irradiation. We used a loop design in this study, cDNA microarray experiment consisted of eight RNA samples, including UVB-irradiated samples and their corresponding controls of 4 time points after UV irradiation.

Project description:Betaine (trimethylglycine) is a non-toxic, highly water-soluble organic osmolyte widely used in skin care due to its assumed moisturizing and protective properties, but only few studies have addressed its specific effects in skin. Here, the cellular and molecular targets of betaine were analyzed by genome-wide expression analysis in organotypic cultures of rat epidermal keratinocytes (REK). In this model, we also examined whether betaine modifies the impacts of acute UVB exposure. The expression of several genes relevant to epidermal biology, proliferation/differentiation or malignancy as well as solute transport were verified by independent methods (qRT-PCR, western blotting). The data concerning changes in calcium metabolism after UVB exposure has been published separately (Bart et al., Br. J. Dermatol. 171:376-387, 2014). Organotypic cultures of rat epidermal keratinocytes (REK) were prepared by plating cells on a collagen-coated insert (submerged in medium), lifting the confluent cell layer to the air-liquid interface 3 days after plating. These 3D cultures were divided in four treatment groups with three replicates in each: control, betaine (10 mM), UVB (30 mJ/cm2) and betaine + UVB. Betaine was added to the cultures for 11 days, starting from day 4 until sample collection. UVB exposure was performed 24 h prior to sample collection for 2-week-old 3D cultures with a well-formed epidermal layer. For further details on the experimental set-up and characteristics of the UV source, please refer to Bart et al. (Br. J. Dermatol. 171:376-387, 2014) and Rauhala et al. (J. Biol. Chem. 288:17999-18012, 2013).
