Project description:The skin epidermis is a highly compartmentalised tissue consisting of a cornifying epithelium called the interfollicular epidermis (IFE) and associated hair follicles (HFs). Several stem cell populations have been described that mark specific sub compartments in the skin but none of them is IFE-specific. Here we identify Troy as a marker of IFE and HF infundibulum basal layer cells in embryonic and adult human and mouse epidermis. Genetic lineage-tracing experiments demonstrate that Troy-expressing basal cells contribute to long-term renewal of all layers of the cornifying epithelium. Single-cell transcriptomics and organoid assays of Troy-expressing cells as well as their progeny confirmed stem cell identity as well as the ability to generate differentiating daughter cells. In conclusion, we define Troy as a marker of epidermal basal cells that govern interfollicular epidermal renewal and cornification.

Project description:The renewing human epidermis constantly senses and adapts to a wide range of mechanical cues that are ubiquitous throughout life. The mechanisms of how mechanical forces are responded by interfollicular epidermal stem cells (IFESCs) and are transmitted directly into nucleus to modify gene expression was discovered to be mediated by transcriptional coactivators YAP. Interestingly, YAP, a critical modulator in controlling organ size by regulating both cell proliferation and apoptosis, was also found to induce self-renewal or amplification of epidermal progenitor/stem cells, and balance epidermal growth and differentiation. Because growth regulation imposed by different stimuli is achieved through distinct YAP target genes even in a single cell type. This study used chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled with human promoter tiling microarray analysis (ChIP-on-chip) to profile YAP at promoters genome-wide. The goal of the study was to identify the target genes occupied by YAP in IFESCs under the mechanical stretch condition.

Project description:There are multiple stem cells in adult mammalian epidermis, but the mechanisms controlling lineage specification are poorly understood. To identify gene expression signatures of the three major epidermal differentiation compartments we micro-dissected individual SG, IFE and HF from adult epidermis. The RNA was isolated from age and sex matched wild-type mice and performed transcriptome analysis with Affymetrix Exon microarrays We micro-dissected individual interfollicular epidermis (IFE), hair follicle (HF) and sebaceous gland (SG) from adult tail epidermis. The RNA was isolated from age and sex matched wild-type mice. Three biological replicates for each epidermal differentiation compartment were analyzed.

Project description:The renewing human epidermis constantly senses and adapts to a wide range of mechanical cues that are ubiquitous throughout life. The mechanisms of how mechanical forces are responded by interfollicular epidermal stem cells (IFESCs) and are transmitted directly into nucleus to modify gene expression remain incompletely defined. In vitro, human IFESCs were cultured on the collagen I coated silicon rubber membrane and then subjected to the mechanical stretched. Cyclic mechanical tension at 0.5 Hz sinusoidal curve at 10% elongation was applied using an FX-5000T™ Flexercell® Tension Plus™ unit (Flexcell International Corporation). In mechanical unloading groups, cells were cultured on the same plates in the same incubator with the mechanical stretched groups but not subjected to stretch. Combining genome-wide microarray and functional analyses, we made transcriptome analysis of samples from the mechanical unstretched or stretched isolated human IFESCs.

Project description:Although interfollicular epidermal (IFE) differentiation is thought to be stepwise as reflected in sharp boundaries between the basal, spinous, granular and cornified layers, this prediction has not been studied at a single cell resolution. We used single cell RNA-seq to show that IFE differentiation is best described as a single step gradualistic process with a large number of transition cells between the basal and spinous layer. RNA-velocity analysis identifies a commitment point that separates the plastic basal and transition cell state from the unidirectionally differentiating cells. We also show that GRHL3, best known for promoting IFE terminal differentiation, has a major function in suppressing epidermal stem cell expansion and the emergence of an abnormal stem cell state by suppressing Wnt signaling in stem cells.

Project description:The epidermis and associated appendages ensure a number of critical functions necessary for survival and social interactions. Perturbations of epidermal stem cell homeostasis lead to a variety of skin diseases affecting humans and dogs. Therefore, the establishment of an in vitro system to investigate canine epidermal stem cells, representing a model for human diseases, is essential. Here we report the establishment and characterization of organoids derived from microdissected canine hair follicles (HFs) and interfollicular epidermal (IFE). Gene and protein expression analysis revealed high mRNA and protein levels of keratin 5 and 14, IFE differentiation markers and intercellular molecules (e.g., keratin 10 and desmoglein), indicating a strong basal cell signature as well as differentiation towards mature epidermis. Key markers of HF stem cells were lacking. This suggests that, independently of the tissue of origin, both organoid lines develop into the same cell type (basal IFE-like keratinocytes). Signaling pathways members important for regulation of HF growth and cycling (such as Wnt, Hh, BMP and Notch) were present in both HF and IFE organoids at low levels. Withdrawal of growth factors (Noggin, R-spondin and FGFs) resulted in upregulation of markers such as KRT16, IVL, KRT17 and SOX9, showing the potential of the organoids to develop towards more differentiated tissue. However, for induction of HF signatures or hair growth, addition of different growth factors or dermal papilla co-culture might be required. Taken together, our in vitro culture system can provide the basis to address hair growth and explore epidermal function/regeneration, allowing us to further investigate pathomechanisms of cutaneous disorders in dogs and potentially human patients.

Project description:Actinic keratosis (AK) is a prolific precancerous skin lesion, which occurs in susceptible individuals due to chronic ultraviolet radiation exposure, with a propensity to develop into malignant squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The histopathologic features of AKs include a dysplastic epithelium that is frequently, but not always, spatially limited to the interfollicular epithelium. However, the upper follicular epithelium, although equally susceptible to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure, is commonly spared of dysplasia. To address these issues, our approach sought to leverage this phenomenon by profiling UVR-susceptible (interfollicular) versus -refractory (follicular) epithelium using spatial transcriptomic analysis of AK tissue sections. Unsupervised clustering analysis segregated transcriptionally distinct regions of epithelium in AK lesions that spatially overlapped with either normal follicular or dysplastic interfollicular regions and identified a total of 193 dysregulated genes in dysplastic interfollicular epidermal clusters that were conserved across multiple AKs. Next, CellChat analysis identified highly enriched cell-cell communication pathways primarily between dermal and dysplastic epidermal clusters, suggesting that perturbations in dermal-epidermal communication may be early drivers of epidermal dysplasia. Collectively, our findings elaborate a first-of-its-kind transcriptional signature for early dysplastic epidermal development in human pre-malignant skin and provide much needed insight into the longstanding clinical observation of susceptible (interfollicular) versus refractory (follicular) epithelium to ultraviolet radiation-induced dysplasia.

Project description:The vitamin D receptor with its ligand 1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25D3) regulates epidermal stem cell fate, such that VDR removal from Krt14 expressing keratinocytes delays re-epithelialization of epidermis after wound injury in mice. In this study we deleted Vdr from Lrig1 expressing stem cells in the isthmus of the hair follicle then used lineage tracing to evaluate the impact on re-epithelialization following injury. We showed that Vdr deletion from these cells prevents their migration to and regeneration of the interfollicular epidermis without impairing their ability to repopulate the sebaceous gland. To pursue the molecular basis for these effects of VDR, we performed genome wide transcriptional analysis of keratinocytes from Vdr cKO and control littermate mice. Ingenuity Pathway analysis (IPA) pointed us to the TP53 family including p63 as a partner with VDR, a transcriptional factor that is essential for proliferation and differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes. Epigenetic studies on epidermal keratinocytes derived from interfollicular epidermis showed that VDR is colocalized with p63 within the specific regulatory region of MED1 containing super-enhancers of epidermal fate driven transcription factor genes such as Fos and Jun. Gene ontology analysis further implicated that Vdr and p63 associated genomic regions regulate genes involving stem cell fate and epidermal differentiation. To demonstrate the functional interaction between VDR and p63, we evaluated the response to 1,25(OH)2D3 of keratinocytes lacking p63 and noted a reduction in epidermal cell fate determining transcription factors such as Fos, Jun. We conclude that VDR is required for the epidermal stem cell fate orientation towards interfollicular epidermis following wounding. We propose that this role of VDR involves cross-talk with the epidermal master regulator p63 through super-enhancer mediated epigenetic dynamics.
