Аннотация

BACKGROUND: Chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD) is an immune-mediated photo-allergic skin disease. In the clinic, the treatment of this disease is hampered by the lack of proper understanding of the skin barrier dysfunction mechanism.

OBJECTIVE: To illuminate the mechanism of skin barrier dysfunction in CAD.

METHODS: Transcriptome sequencing and protein profiling were used to detect skin barrier injury-related genes. RNA pull down, a promoter-reporter gene assay, and chromatin isolation by RNA purification-sequencing were used to elucidate the effect of WAKMAR2 in skin barrier functionality.

RESULTS: Transcriptome sequencing from patient's tissues showed a significantly decreased expression of WAKMAR2. Down-regulation of WAKMAR2 destroyed the keratinocyte barrier. Moreover, WAKMAR2 can directly bind to the c-Fos protein. This novel long non-coding RNA (LncRNA)-protein complexes were targeted to the CLDN1 promotor. Overexpression of WAKMAR2 enhanced the promoter activity of CLDN1, while the addition of AP-1 inhibitor could reverse this phenomenon. Furthermore, our in vivo results suggested that expression of WAKMAR2 was required for the repair of skin damage in mice induced by ultraviolet irradiation.

CONCLUSIONS: We identified a crucial LncRNA (WAKMAR2) for the protection of the skin barrier in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, it can specifically interact with c-Fos protein for the regulation of CLDN1, a finding which could be applied for CAD treatment.
