- W3165161784 abstract "Background: Traditional preclinical approaches, such as two-dimensional cell culture and animal models, are often inadequate to mimic the pathophysiological features of complex diseases such as systemic sclerosis (SSc). Human specific targets, such as the recently described pro-fibrotic long non coding RNA (lncRNA) H19X 1 , are becoming increasingly relevant in preclinical research, creating the need of new strategies and tools in translational medicine. The employment of novel three-dimensional (3D) culture systems, where multiple cell types are included, is filling an important gap left by the traditional preclinical methods. Objectives: To develop an easy to produce 3D fibrotic skin microtissues model for translational proof of concept studies. Methods: Two thousand five hundred dermal fibroblasts isolated from skin of SSc patients were seeded in ultra-low attachment 96-well plates. Fibroblast were let to aggregate into spheres for 48h. Two thousand five hundred primary normal human keratinocytes were added to the culture and let to layer onto the fibroblast spheres for 72h. H19X silencing experiments were used as proof of concept studies. H19X silencing with antisense oligonucleotides or transfections with a scrambled control were performed in fibroblasts prior to the sphere formation for 24h. TGFβ (10 ng/ml) was added to microtissue to exacerbate the fibrotic phenotype. Haematoxylin eosin staining as well as immunohistochemistry staining for vimentin and cytokeratin 10 was performed. Skin microtissues were processed for RNA and protein isolation. Pro-collagen Iα1 and fibronectin were quantified in the supernatants with ELISA. Results: The microtissues presented a core of SSc fibroblast as revealed by vimentin staining and an external layer of keratinocytes as revealed by cytokeratin 10 staining, mimicking the human skin architecture. Gene expression analysis following TGFβ stimulation displayed induced expression of extracellular matrix gene COL1A1 (p=0.044) and the myofibroblast marker ACTA2 (p=0.018), indicating that the microtissues were able to develop a fibrotic response. Microtissues, where H19X was silenced, displayed reduced gene expression of COL1A1 and ACTA2 after TGFβ stimulation ( COL1A1 p=0.007, ACTA2 p=0.045). Additionally, H19X silencing led to lower levels of αSMA protein expression (p=0.009) and pro-collagen1α1 secretion (p=0.039) in the supernatant of the microtissue cultures as revealed by Western Blot and ELISA, respectively. FN1 expression and fibronectin protein levels were not significantly reduced in the microtissues after H19X silencing. Conclusion: We were able to produce a 3D microtissue resembling skin architecture that can respond to fibrotic stimuli. Knockdown experiments of pro-fibrotic lncRNA H19X confirmed the potential of the model as screening platform for novel pro-fibrotic effectors. A future aim will be to optimize the model for high-throughput automated screening platforms. References: [1]Pachera, E., et al.
