Clinical observations of both normal and pathological skin have shown that there is a heterogeneity based on the skin origin type. Beside external factors, intrinsic differences in skin cells could be a central element to determine skin types. This study aimed to understand the in vitro behaviour of epidermal cells of African and Caucasian skin types in the context of 3D reconstructed skin. Full-thickness skin models were constructed with site matched human keratinocytes and papillary fibroblasts to investigate potential skin type related differences. We report that reconstructed skin epidermis exhibited remarkable differences regarding stratification and differentiation according to skin types, as demonstrated by histological appearance, gene expression analysed by DNA microarray and quantitative proteomic analysis. Signalling pathways and processes related to terminal differentiation and lipid/ceramide metabolism were up-regulated in epidermis constructed with keratinocytes from Caucasian skin type when compared to that of keratinocytes from African skin type. Specifically, the expression of proteins involved in the processing of filaggrins was found different between skin models. Overall, we show unexpected differences in epidermal morphogenesis and differentiation between keratinocytes of Caucasian and African skin types in in vitro reconstructed skin containing papillary fibroblasts that could explain the differences in ethnic related skin behaviour. |
