Synchronous profiling and analysis of mRNAs and ncRNAs in the dermal papilla cells from cashmere goats.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:Dermal papilla cells (DPCs), the "signaling center" of hair follicle (HF), delicately master continual growth of hair in mammals including cashmere, the fine fiber annually produced by secondary HF embedded in cashmere goat skins. Such unparalleled capacity bases on their exquisite character in instructing the cellular activity of hair-forming keratinocytes via secreting numerous molecular signals. Past studies suggested microRNA (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play essential roles in a wide variety of biological process, including HF cycling. However, their roles and related molecular mechanisms in modulating DPCs secretory activities are still poorly understood. RESULTS:Here, we separately cultivated DPCs and their functionally and morphologically distinct dermal fibroblasts (DFs) from cashmere goat skins at anagen. With the advantage of high throughput RNA-seq, we synchronously identified 2540 lncRNAs and 536 miRNAs from two types of cellular samples at 4th passages. Compared with DFs, 1286 mRNAs, 18 lncRNAs, and 42 miRNAs were upregulated, while 1254 mRNAs, 53 lncRNAs and 44 miRNAs were downregulated in DPCs. Through overlapping with mice data, we ultimately defined 25 core signatures of DPCs, including HOXC8 and RSPO1, two crucial activators for hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). Subsequently, we emphatically investigated the impacts of miRNAs and lncRNAs (cis- and trans- acting) on the genes, indicating that ncRNAs extensively exert negative and positive effects on their expressions. Furthermore, we screened lncRNAs acting as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to sponge miRNAs and relief their repressive effects on targeted genes, and constructed related lncRNAs-miRNAs-HOXC8/RSPO1 interactive lines using bioinformatic tools. As a result, XR_310320.3-chi-miR-144-5p-HOXC8, XR_311077.2-novel_624-RSPO1 and others lines appeared, displaying that lncRNAs might serve as ceRNAs to indirectly adjust HFSCs status in hair growth. CONCLUSION:The present study provides an unprecedented inventory of lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs in goat DPCs and DFs. We also exhibit some miRNAs and lncRNAs potentially participate in the modulation of HFSCs activation via delicately adjusting core signatures of DPCs. Our report shines new light on the latent roles and underlying molecular mechanisms of ncRNAs on hair growth.
