Project description:Keloids are pathological fibroproliferative scars resulting from abnormal collagen deposition within and beyond the margins of the initial cutaneous insult. Keloids negatively impact quality of life cosmetically and functionally and have unsatisfactory treatment modalities with adverse side effects and high reoccurrence rates. Recent studies indicate that epigenetic dysregulation is involved in the development and progression of keloids, suggesting that this could be a viable therapeutic target. The purpose of this study was to evaluate epigenetic targeting drugs, HDACi, LSD1i, Corin, and A-485, as potential therapies for keloids using in-vitro model systems with patient-derived keloid fibroblasts. Results demonstrated that both dual-acting CoREST inhibitor, corin, and HDAC inhibitor, MS-275, reduced fibroblast proliferation more than the LSD1 inhibitor. Corin was the most effective inhibitor of keloid fibroblast migration and invasion across keloid cell lines and primary cells. RNA-seq analysis showed that corin treatment upregulated a significant number of genes with an enrichment in neural differentiation and cell adhesion gene sets. Specifically, corin increased the expression of claudins, which may cause increased cell adhesion and contribute to corin-induced reductions in migration and invasion. Corin downregulated gene sets involved in cell cycle progression, confirmed by reductions in Cyclin A1 and Cyclin B2 at the protein level compared to DMSO. These results highlight the significant role for epigenetic regulation in pathogenic keloid fibroblasts properties and indicate that the epigenetic inhibitor corin may be useful in the prevention and/or treatment of keloids.

Project description:Keloid disease (KD) is a fibroproliferative cutaneous tumour characterised by heterogeneity, excess collagen deposition and aggressive local invasion. Normal and keloid scar tissues were analysed with a site-specific in situ approach through combined laser capture microdissection, as well as whole tissue biopsy and monolayer cell culture techniques.

Project description:Keloids are scars that extend beyond original wounds and are resistant to treatment. In order to improve understanding of the molecular basis of keloid scarring, we have assessed the genomic profiles of keloid fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Skin and scar tissues were obtained for isolation of primary keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Keloid scars were excised from patients undergoing scar excision surgery, normal skin samples were isolated from patients undergoing elective plastic surgery. Primary culters were prepared for keratinocytes and fibroblasts, and were harvested for analysis up to passage three. Nine keloid scars, for adjacent non-lesional keloid skin samples, and three normal skin samples were obtained and cultured. RNA was isolated using RNeasy, and quality verified using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Labeling and hybridization to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarray chips was performed by the Vanderbilt Genome Sciences Resource at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Project description:Keloids are dermal fibroproliferative skin disorders caused by abnormal wound healing, resulting in impaired skin function and aesthetic defects. Abnormal fibroblast proliferation and excessive collagen deposition are involved in keloid formation. This study investigated the role of fibroblast differentiation in keloid development. Single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing data of keloids were comprehensively analyzed, and 25 clinically relevant differentially expressed fibroblast-differentiation-related genes (DEFDRGs) were identified. Based on DEFDRGs, a keloid diagnostic classification system comprising three subtypes was constructed, indicating that DEFDRGs could serve as therapeutic targets. Additionally, multiple microarray datasets, protein sequencing data, and immunohistochemical analyses of key markers in clinical keloid samples were used for further verification. In conclusion, this study established a molecular classification of keloids based on fibroblast differentiation, contributing to the further understanding of keloid pathogenesis and providing new insights for diagnosis and treatment.

Project description:Glioblastoma cells are characterized by a highly invasive behavior whose mechanisms are not yet understood. Using the wound healing and Boyden chamber assays we compared in the present study the migration and invasion abilities of 5 glioblastoma cell lines (DK-MG, GaMG, U87-MG, U373-MG, SNB19) differing in p53 and PTEN status. We also analyzed by Western blotting the expression of PTEN, p53, mTOR and several other marker proteins involved in cell adhesion, migration and invasion. Among 5 cell lines, GaMG cells exhibited the fastest rate of wound closure, whereas U87-MG cells showed the most rapid chemotactic migration in the Boyden chamber assay. In DK-MG and GaMG cells, F-actin mainly occurred in the numerous stress fibers spanning the cytoplasm, whereas U87-MG, U373-MG and SNB19 cells preferentially expressed F-actin in filopodia and lamellipodia. Moreover, the two glioblastoma lines mutated in both p53 and PTEN genes (U373-MG and SNB19) were found to exhibit the fastest invasion rates through the Matrigel matrix. Here, we performed a gene expression profiling of the five glioblastoma cell lines to examine the molecular framework of differences in invasive behavior to find possible targets for chemo- and radiation therapy.

Project description:The immune response is postulated to exert a pivotal role in the occurrence and progression of keloid. In recent years, the impact of the peripheral immune microenvironment on keloid has garnered significant attention in scholarly investigations exploring the underlying pathogenesis of this condition. In this study, we isolated CD45+ cells from keloid and normal scar dermis tissues by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) and performed single-cell RNA sequencing analysis. Our results revealed the intricate cellular landscape of immune cells in keloid. We found that compared to normal scar tissue, the percentage of Th17 cells was significantly increased in keloid. Further functional studies revealed that Th17 cell promotes proliferation, migration and collagen expression of keloid fibroblast through IL17a. These findings will help us more thoroughly understand keloid pathogenesis and provide potential targets for keloid therapies.

Project description:Neural crest cells are both highly migratory and significant to vertebrate organogenesis. However, the signals that regulate neural crest cell migration remain unclear. Here, we test the function of DAN, a BMP antagonist we detected by analysis of chick cranial mesoderm. Our analysis shows that, prior to neural crest cell exit from the hindbrain, DAN is expressed in the mesoderm, then it becomes absent along cell migratory pathways. Cranial neural crest and metastatic melanoma cells avoid DAN protein stripes in vitro. Addition of DAN reduces the speed of migrating cells, in vivo and in vitro respectively. In vivo loss-of-function of DAN results in enhanced neural crest cell migration by increasing speed and directionality. Computer model simulations support the hypothesis that DAN restrains cell migration by regulating cell speed. Taken together, our results identify DAN as a novel factor that inhibits uncontrolled neural crest and metastatic melanoma invasion and promotes collective migration in a manner consistent with inhibition of BMP signaling.
