The presence and localization of immuno-analogues of human erythrocyte protein 4.1 and spectrin were examined in the epidermis of psoriasis vulgaris. Immunoblot analysis with antibodies against human erythrocyte protein 4.1 revealed that psoriatic epidermis contains a 4.1-like protein of 80 kDa, and also minor immunoreactive polypeptides, including a 45-kDa polypeptide. The 45-kDa band was not detected in non-lesional epidermis. Lesional epidermis of psoriasis contains spectrin-like proteins of 240 kDa. Analysis with immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that 4.1-like proteins were detected mainly in the cytoplasm of the suprabasal cells in lesional epidermis and in the peripheral cytoplasm of the basal cells in non-lesional epidermis. On the other hand, spectrin-like proteins were localized to the peripheral cytoplasm of basal keratinocytes in both lesional and non-lesional psoriatic epidermis. The present results indicate that proteins related to protein 4.1 and spectrin are consistently detected within epidermal cells of psoriasis, a chronic skin disease characterized by epidermal hyperplasia; the expression and distribution of protein 4.1 in lesional epidermis of psoriasis differs from that in non-lesional epidermis. These membrane skeletal proteins may be of significance in the hyperproliferative epidermis of psoriasis. 相似文献

Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), a membrane protein ion channel, is known to mediate itch and pain in skin. The function of TRPA1, however, in psoriasiform dermatitis (PsD) is uncertain. Herein, we found that expression of TRPA1 is highly up‐regulated in human psoriatic lesional skin. To study the role of TRPA1 in PsD, we assessed Psoriasis Severity Index (PSI) scores, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), skin thickness and pathology, and examined dermal inflammatory infiltrates, Th17‐related genes and itch‐related genes in c57BL/6 as wild‐type (WT) and TRPA1 gene knockout (KO) mice following daily application of topical IMQ cream for 5 days. Compared with WT mice, clinical scores, skin thickness change and TEWL scores were similar on day 3, but were significantly decreased on day 5 in IMQ‐treated TRPA1 KO mice (vs WT mice), suggesting reduced inflammation and skin barrier defects. Additionally, the relative area of epidermal Munro's microabscesses and mRNA levels of neutrophil inducible chemokines (S100A8, S100A9 and CXCL1) were decreased in the treated skin of TRPA1 KO mice, suggesting that neutrophil recruitment was impaired in the KO mice. Furthermore, mast cells, CD31+ blood vascular cells, CD45+ leukocytes and CD3+ T cells were all reduced in the treated skin of TRPA1 KO mice. Lastly, mRNA expression levels of IL‐1β, IL‐6, IL‐23, IL‐17A, IL‐17F and IL‐22 were decreased in TRPA1 KO mice. In summary, these results suggest a key role for TRPA1 in psoriasiform inflammation and raising its potential as a target for therapeutic intervention. 相似文献

Regulated uptake of extracellular l-arginine by cationic amino acid transporters (CATs) is required for inducible nitric oxide synthase and arginase activity. Both enzymes were recently recognized as important in the pathophysiology of psoriasis because of their contribution to epidermal hyperproliferation. We here characterize the expression pattern of CATs in psoriatic skin compared to healthy skin. CAT-1 mRNA expression was strongly upregulated in lesional and nonlesional areas of psoriatic skin compared to healthy skin, whereas expression of CAT-2A and the inducible isoform CAT-2B was unaltered in psoriatic skin. Furthermore, we tested the hypothesis that arginase-1 overexpression regulates CAT expression via intracellular l-arginine concentration. In in vitro experiments with arginase-1 overexpressing HaCaT cells, CAT-1 mRNA expression was increased. Likewise, this occurs in l-arginine-starved HaCaT cells. Both CAT-2 isoforms were not affected. Arginase-1 overexpression limits the synthesis of NO at physiological, but not supraphysiological, l-arginine levels. Plasma l-arginine concentration was diminished in psoriasis patients and the arginase product l-ornithine was significantly increased compared to healthy controls. In summary, arginase-1 overexpression leads to upregulated CAT-1 expression in psoriatic skin, which is due to lowered intracellular l-arginine levels and limits NO synthesis at physiological l-arginine concentrations. 相似文献

Cytokine components of Th17 pathway play vital roles in human psoriasis. Although much is known about TCR αβ T cells in psoriasis, the role of unconventional T cells, including γδ T cells, is unclear. In this study, using an IL-23 skin injection model of psoriasiform dermatitis in mice, we demonstrate that IL-22, IL-17A, and the IL-23R were highly enriched in a population of CCR6(+), TCR γδ-low expressing (GDL) T cells that accumulated in the epidermis after IL-23 injections. GDL cells were distinct from resident TCR γδ-high, Vγ3(+),CCR6(-) T cells in the epidermis that did not change appreciably in numbers following IL-23 injection. Large numbers of CCR6(+) cells were detected at or above the level of the epidermal basement membrane by confocal microscopy 5 d after repeated IL-23 injections at the same time GDL cells increased in numbers in the epidermis. TCR δ-deficient mice (lacking γδ T cells) exhibited decreased ear swelling and downregulated expression of IL-22 and IL-17A in the epidermis following IL-23 injection. Our data suggest that a subset of γδ T cells play a critical role in IL-23-mediated psoriasiform dermatitis. 相似文献

BackgroundPsoriasis is a chronic skin disorder manifested by recurrent episodes of scaly, red, itchy skin patches that occur within apparently normal skin.ObjectivesThis study was performed to detect the expression of serum and tissue (lesion and non-lesion) LncRNA MALAT-1 and MiRNA-9 that might be used as biomarkers for psoriasis.MethodsBlood samples were obtained from 60 psoriasis patients and 40 controls, as well as 4 mm punch biopsy from lesional and non lesional skin of psoriatic patient and normal skin of healthy controls. Expression of LncRNA MALAT-1 and miRNNA-9 in serum and tissues was detected by real time qRT-PCR.Resultsa statistically significant increase in the expression of MALAT-1 in lesional and non-lesional skin and serum of psoriatic patients in comparison to controls were detected. Moreover, there was statistically significant increase in serum MiRNA-9 in patients in comparison to controls, while its tissue level was significantly lower in patients.ConclusionThis study highlights the dysregulation of LncRNA MALAT-1 and miRNA-9 in psoriasis. Elevated expression of MALAT-1 in lesional skin of psoriatic patients compared to non-lesional skin may possibly contribute to the development of psoriatic plaques. 相似文献

Psoriasis is a persistent cutaneous disease characterized by skin inflammation and infiltration of immunocytes such as lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages, concomitant with abnormal epidermal hyperproliferation. We previously showed that the serum level of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and its production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with psoriasis were closely correlated with the severity of clinical symptoms; however, the precise role of MIF in psoriatic epidermis remains to be clarified. The current study was carried out to elucidate the possible involvement of MIF in psoriasis, using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. In contrast to elevated serum MIF in psoriasis, MIF-positive staining in the lesional psoriatic epidermis was significantly decreased, as demonstrated by immunohistochemical analysis using an anti-MIF antibody. Consistent with this finding, we found, by in situ hybridization, that MIF mRNA concomitantly decreased in the psoriatic lesions. Although the reason for the different MIF levels in the psoriatic epidermis and in the circulation remains unknown, it is hypothesized that MIF, a potential growth factor, might be decreased in psoriatic lesions to counterregulate the abnormal epidermal proliferation caused by dysregulation of cytokines and growth factors. 相似文献

Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is an antioxidant enzyme that breaks down superoxide anion into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide in extracellular spaces and plays key roles in controlling pulmonary and vascular diseases in response to oxidative stresses. We aimed to investigate the role of EC-SOD in angiogenesis and inflammation in chronic inflammatory skin disorders such as psoriasis. Overexpressed EC-SOD reduced expression of angiogenic factors and proinflammatory mediators in hypoxia-induced keratinocytes and in ultraviolet B-irradiated mice, whereas the expression of the antiangiogenic factor tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 and anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 were increased. EC-SOD decreased new vessel formation, epidermal edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration in UVB-irradiated transgenic mice. Moreover, cells treated with recombinant human EC-SOD showed inhibited endothelial tube formation and cell proliferation. Overall, the antiangiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of EC-SOD might be due to suppression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, protein kinase C, and nuclear factor-κB expression. Furthermore, EC-SOD expression in tissue from psoriasis patients was markedly decreased in psoriatic lesional and nonlesional skins from psoriasis patients in comparison to normal skin from healthy volunteers. Together, these results suggest that EC-SOD may provide a novel therapeutic approach to treating angiogenic and inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis. 相似文献

Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease with an incompletely understood etiology. The disease is characterized by red, scaly and well-demarcated skin lesions formed by the hyperproliferation of epidermal keratinocytes. This hyperproliferation is driven by cytokines secreted by activated resident immune cells, an infiltrate of T cells, dendritic cells and cells of the innate immune system, as well as the keratinocytes themselves. Psoriasis has a strong hereditary character and has a complex genetic background. Genome-wide association studies have identified polymorphisms within or near a number of genes encoding cytokines, cytokine receptors or elements of their signal transduction pathways, further implicating these cytokines in the psoriasis pathomechanism. A considerable number of inflammatory cytokines have been shown to be elevated in lesional psoriasis skin, and the serum concentrations of a subset of these also correlate with psoriasis disease severity. The combined effects of the cytokines found in psoriasis lesions likely explain most of the clinical features of psoriasis, such as the hyperproliferation of keratinocytes, increased neovascularization and skin inflammation. Thus, understanding which cytokines play a pivotal role in the disease process can suggest potential therapeutic targets. A number of cytokines have been therapeutically targeted with success, revolutionizing treatment of this disease. Here we review a number of key cytokines implicated in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. 相似文献

Proinflammatory cytokines TNF, IFNG, and IL17 play an important role in eruption of psoriasis. The activation of epidermal keratinocytes with the named cytokines alters their terminal differentiation program and causes their hyperproliferation in the diseased skin. HaCaT cells, which are immortalized human keratinocytes, are often used as a cellular model of psoriasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in gene expression and the proliferation rates in cultured HaCaT cells treated with TNF, IFNG, and IL17. We found that HaCaT cells decrease their proliferation rate in response to either IL17 or a combination TNF and IFNG. The analysis of microarray data discovered a group of 12 genes, which were downregulated in HaCaT after treatments with the named cytokines and upregulated in psoriatic lesional skin. Eight genes were important for DNA replication and they also contributed to two larger networks that regulated cell progression through the cell cycle. We conclude that HaCaT cells have a sufficient limitation as a cellular model of psoriasis due to their treatment with proinflammatory cytokines, namely TNF, IFNG, and IL17 does not increase their proliferation rate. Thus, the studies of psoriasis based on HaCaT cells as an experimental model shall take in account this important phenomenon. 相似文献

Epidermal hyperplasia is a key feature of the common skin disorder psoriasis. Stimulation of epidermal keratinocytes by insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is essential for cell division, and increased sensitivity to IGF-I may occur in psoriasis. We hypothesized that inhibition of IGF-I receptor expression in the psoriasis lesion would reverse psoriatic epidermal hyperplasia by slowing the rate of keratinocyte cell division. Here we report the use of C5-propynyl-dU,dC-phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotides to inhibit IGF-I receptor expression in keratinocytes. We identified several inhibitory antisense oligonucleotides and demonstrated IGF-I receptor inhibition in vitro through an mRNA targeting mechanism. Repeated injection of these oligonucleotides into human psoriasis lesions, grafted onto nude mice, caused a dramatic normalization of the hyperplastic epidermis. The findings indicate that IGF-I receptor stimulation is a rate-limiting step in psoriatic epidermal hyperplasia and that IGF-I receptor targeting by cutaneous administration of antisense oligonucleotides forms the basis of a potential new psoriasis therapy. 相似文献

A novel diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT2) is decreased in human psoriatic skin and increased in diabetic mice 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Psoriasis is a skin disease with epidermal keratinocyte hyperproliferation and altered differentiation. To identify novel psoriasis-related genes, we investigated differentially expressed genes between normal and psoriatic skin. We identified a novel acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) gene, which was decreased in human psoriatic skin. DGAT2 mRNA was expressed in sebaceous glands of normal human skin. DGAT2 protein was detected on endoplasmic reticulum. DGAT2 catalyzes the final step in the production of triglycerides and the accumulation of triglycerides in the tissues is considered to be related to insulin resistance. Therefore, we also investigated the expression of the DGAT2 gene in diabetic mice. DGAT2 mRNA was increased in the adipose, small intestine, and skeletal muscle in diabetic mice. 相似文献

Psoriasis is a common chronic skin disease characterized by epidermal hyperplasia and inflammation. However, the pathogenesis of psoriasis is multifactorial and is not fully understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a promising class of small, noncoding RNA molecules that have a large impact on cellular functions by regulating gene expression. Here we reported that microRNA-187 (miR-187), which is one of the most dynamic microRNAs identified in the deep screening miRNAs profile, is downregulated in inflammatory cytokines-stimulated keratinocytes and psoriatic skins. By luciferase activity assay and gain-of-function studies, we showed that miR-187 inhibits keratinocytes hyperproliferation by targeting CD276. Moreover, overexpression of miR-187 decreases acanthosis and reduces the disease severity in psoriasis mouse models. Taken together, the results of our study implies miR-187 as a critical factor in psoriasis pathogenesis, which could be a potent target for psoriasis treatment. 相似文献

Up-regulation of macrophage inflammatory protein-3 alpha/CCL20 and CC chemokine receptor 6 in psoriasis 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Autoimmunity plays a key role in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis; however, little is known about the recruitment of pathogenic cells to skin lesions. We report here that the CC chemokine, macrophage inflammatory protein-3 alpha, recently renamed CCL20, and its receptor CCR6 are markedly up-regulated in psoriasis. CCL20-expressing keratinocytes colocalize with skin-infiltrating T cells in lesional psoriatic skin. PBMCs derived from psoriatic patients show significantly increased CCR6 mRNA levels. Moreover, skin-homing CLA+ memory T cells express high levels of surface CCR6. Furthermore, the expression of CCR6 mRNA is 100- to 1000-fold higher on sorted CLA+ memory T cells than other chemokine receptors, including CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CCR2, CCR3, and CCR5. In vitro, CCL20 attracted skin-homing CLA+ T cells of both normal and psoriatic donors; however, psoriatic lymphocytes responded to lower concentrations of chemokine and showed higher chemotactic responses. Using ELISA as well as real-time quantitative PCR, we show that cultured primary keratinocytes, dermal fibroblasts, and dermal microvascular endothelial and dendritic cells are major sources of CCL20, and that the expression of this chemokine can be induced by proinflammatory mediators such as TNF-alpha/IL-1 beta, CD40 ligand, IFN-gamma, or IL-17. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that CCL20/CCR6 may play a role in the recruitment of T cells to lesional psoriatic skin. 相似文献

In situ hybridization with full length mouse cellular retinoic acid-binding protein type 1 and cellular retinoic acid-binding protein type 2 cDNA derived RNA probes showed overexpression of cellular retinoic acid-binding protein type 2 mRNA in lesional hyperplastic psoriatic skin whereas cellular retinoic acid-binding protein type 1 mRNA was undetectable. This suggests that the previously reported increase of cellular retinoic acid-binding protein in psoriatic epidermis corresponds to increased translation of cellular retinoic acid-binding protein type 2 gene. Cellular retinoic acid-binding protein types 1 and 2 mRNAs were not detectable in normal epidermis; however, type 2 message was detected in non-hyperplastic, non-lesional skin of psoriatic patients thus before altered epidermal differentiation and hyperplasia are morphologically detectable. 相似文献

Because of their genetically determined capacity to respond to pro-inflammatory stimuli, keratinocytes have a crucial role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Upon IFN-γ and TNF-α exposure, psoriatic keratinocytes express exaggerated levels of inflammatory mediators, and show aberrant hyperproliferation and terminal differentiation. The thickening of psoriasic skin also results from a peculiar resistance of keratinocytes to cytokine-induced apoptosis. In this study, we investigated on the molecular mechanisms concurring to the resistance of psoriatic keratinocytes to cell death, focusing on the role having suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)1 and SOCS3, two molecules abundantly expressed in IFN-γ/TNF-α-activated psoriatic keratinocytes, in sustaining anti-apoptotic pathways. We found that SOCS1 and SOCS3 suppress cytokine-induced apoptosis by sustaining the activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in keratinocytes. The latter determines the activation of the anti-apoptotic NF-κB cascade and, in parallel, the inhibition of the pro-apoptotic BAD function in keratinocytes. For the first time, we report that phosphorylated AKT and phosphorylated BAD are strongly expressed in lesional psoriatic skin, compared with healthy or not lesional skin, and they strictly correlate to the high expression of SOCS1 and SOCS3 molecules in the psoriatic epidermis. Finally, the depletion of SOCS1 and SOCS3, as well as the chemical inactivation of PI3K activity in psoriatic keratinocytes, definitively unveils the role of PI3K/AKT cascade on the resistance of diseased keratinocytes to apoptosis. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the immunoregulatory potential of Hsp60 in the skin of dogs with atopic dermatitis. Three dogs with chronic atopic dermatitis and four healthy dogs were injected intradermally with Hsp60 and phosphate-buffered saline. Biopsies were taken before testing from non-injected control skin, lesional and non-lesional atopic skin, and 48 and 72 h after injection. Analysis of cytokine messenger RNA was performed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Forty-eight hours after Hsp60 injection, a rise in interleukin (IL)-10 was found (P = 0.034) with the highest expression levels in non-lesional atopic and control skin. A rise of transforming growth factor beta (P = 0.015) and IL-12p40 (P = 0.017) was noticed 72 h after Hsp60 injection in control skin. No significant differences were observed for the expression of IL-4, IL-12p35, and interferon gamma. The results indicate that Hsp60 is able to induce cytokines of a regulatory and Th1 phenotype in the skin. Furthermore, this study seems to provide a first indication of deficient Hsp60 response in atopic dermatitis affected skin. 相似文献

Psoriasis is recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by epidermal hyperproliferation. To identify psoriasis-related genes, we compared the mRNA populations of normal and psoriatic skin. We identified one gene, designated as cornifelin, which showed increased expression in psoriatic skin. Human cornifelin contains 112 amino acids and is expressed in the uterus, cervix, and skin. In situ hybridization analysis demonstrated the presence of human cornifelin in the granular cell layer of the epidermis. To investigate the function of cornifelin, we established a transgenic mouse line overexpressing human cornifelin. Using these mice, we have shown that cornifelin is directly or indirectly cross-linked to at least two other cornified envelope proteins, loricrin and involucrin, in vivo. Overexpression of human cornifelin correlated with decreased loricrin expression and increased involucrin expression in the transgenic mouse. However, abnormality of epidermal differentiation was not observed in the transgenic mouse. 相似文献
