Psoriasis is mediated primarily by T cells, which reduce epidermal turnover time and affect keratinocyte proliferation. We aimed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEG) in T cells from normal, five pairs of monozygotic twins concordant or discordant for psoriasis, to determine whether these DEG may account for the influence to epidermal turnover time and keratinocyte proliferation. The impact of T cells on keratinocyte proliferation and epidermal turnover time were investigated separately by immunohistochemistry and cultured with (3) H-TdR. mRNA expression patterns were investigated by RNA sequencing and verified by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. After co-culture with psoriatic T cells, the expression of Ki-67, c-Myc and p53 increased, while expression of Bcl-2 and epidermal turnover time decreased. There were 14 DEG which were found to participate in the regulation of cell proliferation or differentiation. Psoriatic T cells exhibited the ability to decrease epidermal turnover time and affect keratinocyte proliferation because of the differential expression of PPIL1, HSPH1, SENP3, NUP54, FABP5, PLEKHG3, SLC9A9 and CHCHD4.

Precisely controlled remodeling of the basement membrane (BM) is crucial for morphogenesis, but its molecular and tissue-level dynamics, underlying mechanisms, and functional significance in mammals remain largely unknown due to limited visualization tools. We developed mouse lines in which the endogenous collagen IV gene (Col4a2) was fused with a fluorescent tag. Through live imaging of developing hair follicles, we reveal a spatial gradient in the turnover rate of COL4A2 that is closely coupled with both the BM expansion rate and the proliferation rate of epithelial progenitors.

Background: Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a serious condition that affects elderly individuals. Our previous study revealed that Yigu decoction (YGD) effectively improved bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly individuals, but the mechanism underlying this effect remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the relationships among YGD, microRNAs (miRNAs), and bone metabolism by assessing the effects of YGD on the miRNA levels in patient plasma to provide a scientific basis for treating PMOP with YGD.

Programmed cell death occurring during plant development (dPCD) is a fundamental process integral for plant growth and reproduction. Here, we investigate the connection between developmentally controlled PCD and fungal accommodation in roots, focusing on the root cap-specific transcription factor ANAC033/SOMBRERO (SMB) and the senescence-associated nuclease BFN1. Mutations of both dPCD regulators increase colonization by the beneficial fungus , primarily in the differentiation zone.

Epidermal stem cells: Interplay with the skin microenvironment during wound healing.

Department of Life Sciences, Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), Pohang 37673, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:

Skin undergoes everyday turnover while often challenged by injuries. The wound healing process in the skin is a dynamic sequence of events that involves various cell types and signaling pathways. Epidermal stem cells (EpdSCs), the tissue-resident stem cells in the skin tissue, are at the center of this complicated process due to their special ability to self-renew and differentiate.

Article Synopsis
  • Epithelial tissues regularly replace cells to maintain their barrier function, with Drosophila metamorphosis serving as a key example where larval epidermal cells (LECs) are replaced by adult histoblasts.
  • The study finds that as endocytic activity in LECs decreases, the removal of LECs shifts from single-cell apoptosis to more clustered apoptotic events.
  • This switch is regulated by the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway, where reduced ERK activity leads to increased rates of clustered apoptosis, highlighting its role in supporting the growth of surrounding tissues rather than being disadvantageous.
