Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is one of the vital factors for wound healing. HGF expression markedly increases in wounded skin and is mainly localized in dermal fibroblasts. HGF expression level in human dermal fibroblasts in vitro, however, is low and thus may be stimulated by some factors in the process of wound healing. Candidates of the factors are inflammatory cytokines released by polymorphonuclear and mononuclear cells infiltrating the wounded area, but HGF production in human dermal fibroblasts is only slightly induced by interleukin (IL)-1, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha or interferon (IFN)-gamma. We here report that a combination of IL-1beta and IFN-gamma or a combination of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma very markedly induced HGF production. The synergistic effect of the former was more marked than that of the latter. Synergistic effects of IL-1beta and IFN-gamma were observed at more than 10 pg/ml and 10 IU/ml, respectively, and were detectable as early as 12 h after addition. Neither IFN-alpha nor IFN-beta was able to replace IFN-gamma. HGF mRNA expression was also synergistically upregulated by IL-1beta and IFN-gamma. IL-1beta plus IFN-gamma-induced synergistic production of HGF was potently inhibited by treatment of cells with the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase inhibitor PD98059 and the p38 inhibitor SB203580 but not by the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor SP600125. Taken together, our results indicate that a combination of IL-1beta and IFN-gamma synergistically induced HGF production in human dermal fibroblasts and suggest that activation of ERK and p38 but not of JNK is involved in the synergistic effect. 相似文献

Progranulin is a secreted glycoprotein, and the GRN gene is mutated in some cases of frontotemporal dementia. Progranulin has also been implicated in cell growth, wound healing, inflammation, and cancer. We investigated the molecular nature of secreted progranulin and provide evidence that progranulin exists as a homodimer. Although recombinant progranulin has a molecular mass of ∼85 kDa by SDS-PAGE, it elutes in fractions corresponding to ∼170–180 kDa by gel-filtration chromatography. Additionally, recombinant progranulin can be intermolecularly cross-linked, yielding a complex corresponding to a dimer (∼180 kDa), and progranulins containing different epitope tags physically interact. In plasma, progranulin similarly forms complexes of ∼180–190 kDa. Although progranulin partially co-fractionated with high density lipoproteins (HDL) by gel-filtration chromatography, we found no evidence that progranulin in mouse or human plasma is a component of HDL either by ultracentrifugation or by lipid binding assays. We conclude that circulating progranulin exists as a dimer and is not likely a component of HDL. 相似文献

Paracrine factors of mesenchymal stem cells recruit macrophages and endothelial lineage cells and enhance wound healing 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) have been shown to enhance wound healing; however, the mechanisms involved are barely understood. In this study, we examined paracrine factors released by BM-MSCs and their effects on the cells participating in wound healing compared to those released by dermal fibroblasts. Analyses of BM-MSCs with Real-Time PCR and of BM-MSC-conditioned medium by antibody-based protein array and ELISA indicated that BM-MSCs secreted distinctively different cytokines and chemokines, such as greater amounts of VEGF-alpha, IGF-1, EGF, keratinocyte growth factor, angiopoietin-1, stromal derived factor-1, macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha and beta and erythropoietin, compared to dermal fibroblasts. These molecules are known to be important in normal wound healing. BM-MSC-conditioned medium significantly enhanced migration of macrophages, keratinocytes and endothelial cells and proliferation of keratinocytes and endothelial cells compared to fibroblast-conditioned medium. Moreover, in a mouse model of excisional wound healing, where concentrated BM-MSC-conditioned medium was applied, accelerated wound healing occurred compared to administration of pre-conditioned or fibroblast-conditioned medium. Analysis of cell suspensions derived from the wound by FACS showed that wounds treated with BM-MSC-conditioned medium had increased proportions of CD4/80-positive macrophages and Flk-1-, CD34- or c-kit-positive endothelial (progenitor) cells compared to wounds treated with pre-conditioned medium or fibroblast-conditioned medium. Consistent with the above findings, immunohistochemical analysis of wound sections showed that wounds treated with BM-MSC-conditioned medium had increased abundance of macrophages. Our results suggest that factors released by BM-MSCs recruit macrophages and endothelial lineage cells into the wound thus enhancing wound healing. 相似文献

During the repair phase of wound healing, fibroblasts migrate to the site of injury where they proliferate and synthesize constituents of the extracellular matrix of connective tissue. Their activity is regulated by mediators originating from cells of the blood clotting and inflammatory stage such as platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, transforming growth factor-beta and other cytokines. This communication shows that chemotactic migration of normal dermal fibroblasts is elicited by epidermal growth factor in vitro and that platelet-derived growth factor and transforming growth factor-beta can down-regulate this activity. This suggests that in vivo these growth factors are part of an intricate network which connects and coordinates proliferation, protein synthesis and chemotactic migration of fibroblasts. 相似文献

Progranulin is a secreted protein with important functions in several physiological and pathological processes, such as embryonic development, host defense, and wound repair. Autosomal dominant mutations in the progranulin gene cause frontotemporal dementia, while overexpression of progranulin promotes the invasive progression of a range of tumors, including those of the breast and the brain. Structurally, progranulin consists of seven-and-a-half tandem repeats of the granulin/epithelin module (GEM), several of which have been isolated as discrete 6-kDa GEM peptides. We have expressed all seven human GEMs using recombinant DNA in Escherichia coli. High-resolution NMR showed that only the three GEMs, hGrnA, hGrnC, and hGrnF, contain relatively well-defined three-dimensional structures in solution, while others are mainly mixtures of poorly structured disulfide isomers. The three-dimensional structures of hGrnA, hGrnC, and hGrnF contain a stable stack of two beta-hairpins in their N-terminal subdomains, but showed a more flexible C-terminal subdomain. Interestingly, of the well-structured GEMs, hGrnA demonstrated potent growth inhibition of a breast cancer cell line, while hGrnF was stimulatory. Poorly folded peptides were either weakly inhibitory or without activity. The functionally active and structurally well-characterized human hGrnA offers a unique opportunity for detailed structure-function studies of these important GEM proteins as novel members of mammalian growth factors. 相似文献

A dermal tissue construct composed of human dermal fibroblasts and a chitosan sponge has been developed, targeted towards the treatment of diabetic nonhealing ulcers. The construct has been designed in a way that the dermal fibroblasts are arranged as a three‐dimensional sheet adhered entirely on one side of the chitosan sponge. This design would allow maximal diffusion of growth factors from the cells to the wound bed when the construct is applied on the wound with the cellular sheet side making contact with the wound bed. The diffusion of secreted growth factors would take place directly from cells to the wound bed without being impeded by a matrix. The cells are present at a high density in the dermal construct, which would aid in accelerated wound healing. The construct has a porous chitosan sponge base, which would allow gas exchange, and renders the dermal construct very flexible so that it would take the shape of the wound contours well, while having mechanical integrity. The viability of cells in the construct is greater than 90%. The dermal construct produces a high amount of vascular endothelial growth factor, from 42 ng to 31 ng in 24 h. The construct also produces high amounts of Interleukin‐8 (IL‐8), from 375 ng to 1065 ng in the first 24 h. Both VEGF and IL‐8 have important roles in the healing of chronic diabetic ulcers. © 2010 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 2010 相似文献

Inhibition of fibroblast chemotaxis by recombinant human interferon gamma and interferon alpha 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Interferons have recently been recognized as potent mediators in inflammatory processes, exerting profound effects on fibroblasts. The influence of interferons gamma and alpha on the chemotactic movement of fibroblasts toward various attractants was, therefore, investigated. Normal human adult and embryonal dermal fibroblasts, fibrosarcoma-derived fibroblasts and SV40-transformed fibroblasts were tested against conditioned medium from fibroblasts, the chemotactic peptide C-140 of fibronectin, platelet-derived growth factor, and leukotriene B4 as attractants in the presence or absence of the interferons. Interferons gamma and alpha inhibited chemotaxis in a dose-dependent manner and at concentrations at least as low as 10(-2) ng/ml. Inhibition was noticeable when the cells were exposed to interferon for as short a period as 60 minutes, and the effect was not readily reversible. Inhibition occurred when the cells came from sparse or dense cultures, but when platelet-derived growth factor was the attractant and the cells had been grown at low density there was no inhibition. It is concluded that this is a specific effect, not to be wholly explained by overall increase in membrane rigidity. Inhibition of fibroblast chemotaxis by interferons may be an important regulatory mechanism during wound healing or fibrosis and metastatic spread of tumor cells. 相似文献

The growth factor progranulin plays a critical role in bladder cancer by modulating tumor cell motility and invasion. Progranulin regulates remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton by interacting with drebrin, an actin binding protein that regulates tumor growth. We previously discovered that progranulin depletion inhibits epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and markedly reduces in vivo tumor growth. Moreover, progranulin depletion sensitizes urothelial cancer cells to cisplatin treatment, further substantiating a pro-survival function of progranulin. Until recently, the progranulin signaling receptor remained unidentified, precluding a full understanding of progranulin action in tumor cell biology. We recently identified EphA2, a member of a large family of receptor tyrosine-kinases, as the functional receptor for progranulin. However, it is not established whether EphA2 plays an oncogenic role in bladder cancer. Here we demonstrate that progranulin, and not ephrin-A1, the canonical ligand for EphA2, is the predominant EphA2 ligand in bladder cancer. Progranulin evoked Akt- and Erk1/2-mediated EphA2 phosphorylation at Ser897, which could drive bladder tumorigenesis. We discovered that EphA2 depletion severely blunted progranulin-dependent motility and anchorage-independent growth, and sensitized bladder cancer cells to cisplatin treatment. We further defined the mechanisms of progranulin/EphA2-dependent motility by identifying liprin-α1 as a novel progranulin-dependent EphA2 interacting protein and establishing its critical role in cell motility. The discovery of EphA2 as the functional signaling receptor for progranulin and the identification of novel downstream effectors offer a new avenue for understanding the underlying mechanism of progranulin action and may constitute novel clinical and therapeutic targets in bladder cancer. 相似文献

Dermal fibroblasts are essential for the repair of cutaneous wounds. Fibroblasts presumably use cell surface receptors of the integrin family during migration into a wound from the adjacent uninjured tissue and for the subsequent matrix repairs. We have investigated the possible roles of platelet-derived growth factor and inflammatory cytokines in the regulation of integrin expression on wound fibroblasts using a porcine cutaneous wound model and cultured human cells. Tissue specimens collected from 4-day pig wounds were stained with antibodies specific for the α1 and α5 integrin subunits. Staining for α1 was markedly decreased on fibroblasts adjacent to the wound and in the granulation tissue, while staining for α5 was clearly enhanced in both locations. Normal adult human dermal fibroblasts in culture express the integrins α1β1, a collagen receptor, and α5β1, a fibronectin receptor. Quantitative flow cytometry was used to measure cell surface integrin expression after treatment with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AA, PDGF-AB, or PDGF-BB. Each isoform of PDGF produced a significant decrease in the level of α1 present on the cell surface and an increase in the level of α5. Furthermore, PDGF-BB produced a corresponding decrease in α1 mRNA and an increase in α5 mRNA. In contrast, treatment with three inflammatory cytokines, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, produced clear increases in the levels of α1 and α5 present on the cell surface. Our observations suggest that the differential effects of PDGF and inflammatory cytokines may be part of the mechanism regulating the expression of α1 and α5 integrins by dermal fibroblasts during wound repair. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Progranulin haploinsufficiency is associated with frontotemporal dementia in humans. Deficiency of progranulin led to exaggerated inflammation and premature aging in mice. The role of progranulin in adaptations to nerve injury and neuropathic pain are still unknown. Here we found that progranulin is up-regulated after injury of the sciatic nerve in the mouse ipsilateral dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord, most prominently in the microglia surrounding injured motor neurons. Progranulin knockdown by continuous intrathecal spinal delivery of small interfering RNA after sciatic nerve injury intensified neuropathic pain-like behaviour and delayed the recovery of motor functions. Compared to wild-type mice, progranulin-deficient mice developed more intense nociceptive hypersensitivity after nerve injury. The differences escalated with aging. Knockdown of progranulin reduced the survival of dissociated primary neurons and neurite outgrowth, whereas addition of recombinant progranulin rescued primary dorsal root ganglia neurons from cell death induced by nerve growth factor withdrawal. Thus, up-regulation of progranulin after neuronal injury may reduce neuropathic pain and help motor function recovery, at least in part, by promoting survival of injured neurons and supporting regrowth. A deficiency in this mechanism may increase the risk for injury-associated chronic pain. 相似文献

The keratinocyte growth factor (KGF/FGF7), produced by stromal cells, is a key paracrine mediator of epithelial proliferation, differentiation and migration. Expression of the growth factor is increased in wound healing and in hyperproliferative epithelial diseases, as a consequence of the activation of dermal fibroblasts by the inflammatory microenvironment. The middle ear cholesteatoma, an aural epidermal pathology characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation and chronic inflammation, may represent a model condition to study the epithelial-mesenchymal interactions. To develop an in vitro model for this disease, we isolated and characterized human primary cultures of fibroblasts associated with the cholesteatoma lesion, analyzing their secretory behaviour and degree of differentiation or activation. Compared to the perilesional or control normal fibroblasts, all cultures derived from cholesteatoma tissues were less proliferating and more differentiated and their highly variable activated phenotype correlated with the secretion of KGF as well as of metalloproteases 2 and 9. Culture supernatants collected from the cholesteatoma-associated fibroblasts were able to increase the proliferation and differentiation of human keratinocytes assessed by the expression of Ki67 and keratin-1 markers. The single crucial contribution of the KGF released by fibroblasts on the keratinocyte biological response was shown by the specific, although partial, block induced by inhibiting the KGF receptor or by immunoneutralizing the growth factor. Altogether, these results suggest that the activation of the stromal fibroblasts present in the pathological tissue, and the consequent increased secretion of KGF, play a crucial role in the deregulation of the epidermal proliferation and differentiation. 相似文献

Fibroblasts are a major cell type in the dermis. When skin is wounded in various ways such as by abrasions, cuts or diabetic ulcer, proliferation and migration of dermal fibroblasts is necessary for cutaneous wound healing. Numerous studies have shown that adult stem cells secrete paracrine factors and these are able to promote wound healing by activating migration and proliferation of effector cells such as dermal fibroblasts. However, the paracrine factors secreted from pluripotent stem cells and the effect of these on dermal fibroblast proliferation and migration have been poorly characterized. In this study we cultured human induced pluripotent stem cells without any animal-derived components including feeder cells, and investigated the effect of stem cell-conditioned medium (iPSC-CM) on dermal fibroblast proliferation and migration. Results showed that the proliferation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (STO cells) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were significantly stimulated by iPSC-CM. We determined that the optimal concentration of iPSC-CM in promoting the proliferation of HDFs was a 75% dilution. Scratch wound assay and transwell migration assay also demonstrated the stimulatory effect of iPSC-CM on the migration of HDFs. iPSC-CM is believed to have advantages because of the unique capabilities of iPSCs, which include infinite self-renewal, pluripotency and variety of donor cells. Thus, iPSC-CM is anticipated to be a valuable source of paracrine factors which can potentially be used for wound healing applications. 相似文献

Epidermal tissue repair represents a complex series of temporal and dynamic events resulting in wound closure. Matricellular proteins, not normally expressed in quiescent adult tissues, play a pivotal role in wound repair and associated extracellular matrix remodeling by modulating the adhesion, migration, intracellular signaling, and gene expression of inflammatory cells, pericytes, fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Several matricellular proteins show temporal expression during dermal wound repair, but the expression pattern of the recently identified matricellular protein, periostin, has not yet been characterized. The primary aim of this study was to assess whether periostin protein is present in healthy human skin or in pathological remodeling (Nevus). The second aim was to determine if periostin is expressed during dermal wound repair. Using immunohistochemistry, periostin reactivity was detected in the keratinocytes, basal lamina, and dermal fibroblasts in healthy human skin. In pathological nevus samples, periostin was present in the extracellular matrix. In excisional wounds in mice, periostin protein was first detected in the granulation tissue at day 3, with levels peaking at day 7. Periostin protein co-localized with α-smooth muscle actin-positive cells and keratinocytes, but not CD68 positive inflammatory cells. We conclude that periostin is normally expressed at the cellular level in human and murine skin, but additionally becomes extracellular during tissue remodeling. Periostin may represent a new therapeutic target for modulating the wound repair process. 相似文献

Dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts involved in the wound healing are thought to originate from the resident fibroblast progenitors. To test the hypothesis of an extra dermal origin of the dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts, bone marrow (BM) transplantation and parabiosis experiments were initiated utilizing a collagen promoter green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter transgene as a visible marker for dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts. BM transplantation experiments using BM from Col3.6GFPsapph transgenic mice showed no evidence that BM derived progenitors differentiated into dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts at the wound site. Rather the GFP positive cells (GFP+) observed at the wound site were not dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts but immune cells. These GFP+ cells were also detected in the lung and spleen. Furthermore, GFP+ fibroblasts were not detected in primary dermal fibroblast cultures initiated from BM chimeras. Using the same transgenic mice, parabiotic pairs were generated. One partner in the parabiosis carried a GFP expressing transgene while the other partner was a non‐transgenic C57BL/6 mouse. Similar to the BM transplantation experiments, GFP+ immune cells were detected in the wound of the non‐transgenic parabiont, however, GFP expressing dermal fibroblasts/myofibroblasts were not observed. Collectively, these data suggest that dermal fibroblast/myofibroblast progenitors do not readily circulate. The expression of the Col3.6GFPsapph in the hematopoietic cells confirmed that our methods were sensitive enough to detect Col3.6GFP expressing dermal fibroblasts derived from the peripheral circulation if they had originated in the BM.

Fibroblasts are involved in all pathologies characterized by increased ExtraCellularMatrix synthesis, from wound healing to fibrosis. Granulocyte Macrophage-Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) is a cytokine isolated as an hemopoietic growth factor but recently indicated as a differentiative agent on endothelial cells. In this work we demonstrated the expression of the receptor for GM-CSF (GM-CSFR) on human normal skin fibroblasts from healthy subjects (NFPC) and on a human normal fibroblast cell line (NHDF) and we try to investigate the biological effects of this cytokine. Human normal fibroblasts were cultured with different doses of GM-CSF to study the effects of this factor on GM-CSFR expression, on cell proliferation and adhesion structures. In addition we studied the production of some Extra-Cellular Matrix (ECM) components such as Fibronectin, Tenascin and Collagen I. The growth rate of fibroblasts from healthy donors (NFPC) is not augmented by GM-CSF stimulation in spite of increased expression of the GM-CSFR. On the contrary, the proliferation of normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) cell line seems more influenced by high concentration of GM-CSF in the culture medium. The adhesion structures and the ECM components appear variously influenced by GM-CSF treatment as compared to fibroblasts cultured in basal condition, but newly only NHDF cells are really induced to increase their synthesis activity. We suggest that the in vitro treatment with GM-CSF can shift human normal fibroblasts towards a more differentiated state, due or accompanied by an increased expression of GM-CSFR and that such "differentiation" is an important event induced by such cytokine. 相似文献

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) stimulates migration and proliferation of keratinocytes and has been suggested to be involved in wound healing. The cationic antibiotic polymyxin B (PMB) is commonly used as a topical antibiotic for wound care. If PMB possesses an HGF-inducing activity, the antibiotic is potentially beneficial for wound healing in addition to minimizing chances of infection. In this study, we found that PMB markedly induced HGF production from various types of cells including human dermal fibroblasts. Its effect was stronger than the effects of epidermal growth factor and cholera toxin and was comparable to the effect of 8-bromo-cAMP. Among the polymyxin family and polymyxin derivatives, colistin was also effective, whereas colistin methanesulfonate had only a marginal effect and PMB nonapeptide was ineffective. The stimulatory effect of PMB was accompanied by upregulation of HGF gene expression. Increase in phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) was observed from 0.25h to 6h after the addition of PMB, while increase in phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) was detected from 24h to 60h after PMB addition. The MAPK/ERK kinase inhibitor PD98059, the JNK inhibitor SP600125 and the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 all potently inhibited PMB-induced HGF production. Lastly, proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts was significantly stimulated by PMB. These results indicate that PMB-induced HGF production and proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts and suggest that activation of MAPKs is involved in the induction of HGF production. 相似文献
