RESUMEN
Lactylation (Kla), a recently discovered post-translational modification derived from lactate, plays crucial roles in various cellular processes. However, the specific influence of lactylation on the biological processes underlying hypertrophic scar formation remains unclear. In this study, we present a comprehensive profiling of the lactylome and proteome in both hypertrophic scars and adjacent normal skin tissues. A total of 1023 Kla sites originating from 338 nonhistone proteins were identified based on lactylome analysis. Proteome analysis in hypertrophic scar and adjacent skin samples revealed the identification of 2008 proteins. It is worth noting that Kla exhibits a preference for genes associated with ribosome function as well as glycolysis/gluconeogenesis in both normal skin and hypertrophic scar tissues. Furthermore, the functional enrichment analysis demonstrated that differentially lactyled proteins are primarily involved in proteoglycans, HIF-1, and AMPK signaling pathways. The combined analysis of the lactylome and proteome data highlighted a significant upregulation of 14 lactylation sites in hypertrophic scar tissues. Overall, our investigation unveiled the significant involvement of protein lactylation in the regulation of ribosome function as well as glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, potentially contributing to the formation of hypertrophic scars.

The transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels act as cellular sensors and mediate a plethora of physiological processes, including somatosensation, proliferation, apoptosis, and metabolism. Under specific conditions, certain TRP channels are involved in inflammation and immune responses. Thus, focusing on the role of TRPs in immune system cells may contribute to resolving inflammation. In this review, we discuss the distribution of five subfamilies of mammalian TRP ion channels in immune system cells and how these ion channels function in inflammatory mechanisms. This review provides an overview of the current understanding of TRP ion channels in mediating inflammation and may offer potential avenues for therapeutic intervention.
