The epidermis of mice consists of three cellular components, i.e., keratinocytes, Langerhans cells (LC), and dendritic epidermal T cells (DETC). Each epidermal subpopulation produces a different set of cytokines, thereby forming a unique cytokine milieu. These cytokines, in turn, support the survival and growth of LC and DETC and regulate their immunological functions. LC and DETC play important, but distinct, effector roles in protective immunity against antigens that are generated in or penetrate into the epidermis. Acute or chronic exposure of mice to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is known to impair this cutaneous immunity, as evidenced by the failure to induce T cell-mediated immune reactions, by the generation of antigen-specific immunological unresponsiveness, and by the development of skin cancers. Importantly, these changes are associated with reduced densities of LC and DETC in UVB-exposed skin, suggesting that the deficiency in these epidermal leukocytes may account for some of the deleterious influences of UVB radiation on skin. Here I will review the recent advance in our understanding of the mechanisms by which UVB radiation may deplete LC and DETC from epidermis. More specifically, I will discuss the following possibilities: a) UVB-mediated suppression of the production of relevant growth factors for LC and DETC, b) UVB-induced abrogation of surface expression of growth factor receptors, and c) UVB-triggered apoptotic cell death in epidermal leukocytes. 相似文献

Recombinant gamma interferon (IFN-γ) was employed to treat adult-type atopic dermatitis. Eight cases received subcutaneous injections of 500,000 JRU of IFN-γ for 8 weeks. They responded relatively well to this treatment; however, the overall response to the treatment was not significantly better than that to conventional therapy in the control group. There was no significant suppression of itch or erythema. Swelling was reduced at the 8th week in the treatment group. Frequency of flushing attacks on the face was reduced and disappeared within four weeks in 6 of these patients; however, a similar reduction of frequency was observed in the control group. Papular and lichenified lesions on the trunk and extremities responded significantly to the treatment later than 5 weeks after its initiation. Serum IgE level was not affected by the treatment. Seven had the same level of serum IgE before and after the treatment. The serum cytokine level in the treated patients was also unaltered. Therefore, although IFN-γ treatment has some benefit in the treatment of severe cases of atopic dermatitis, it should be applied to limited cases because of its high cost. 相似文献

Dendritic epidermal T cells (DETC) in murine epidermis express the γδ T cell receptor (TCR). The major population of DETC utilize Vγ5 and Vδ1 without any junctional diversity, corresponding to the earliest fetal thymocytes which express TCRγδ. Using PCR, we recently found another population of DETC which express VγI-Vδ6 with junctional diversity in addition to Vγ5-Vδ1, although they exist in small numbers in normal mice. In athymic nude mice, Vγ1+ cells also exist. Therefore, this subset of γδ T cells is the product of an extrathymic pathway. These Vγ1 + cells may recognize mycobacterium antigen or heat shock protein (HSP), thus playing an important role in the first defense of the skin. In contrast to normal mice, in nude mice, we could not detect any DETC using anti CD3ε antibody (2C11). In order to solve this puzzle, we examined the components of TCR complex utilizing immunoprecipitation and northern blot analysis. TCR is composed of either αβ or γδ chains associated with CD3γ, δ, ε and ζ-ζ chains. By immunoprecipitation of 125I labelled DETC cell lines using anti-CD3ε antibody, we detected γδ chains and CD3γ and CD3ε chains, but not CD3δ or CD3ζ chains. Northern blot analysis showed that these cells express CD3γ, ε, and ζ chains, but not the CD3δ chain. We concluded that the lack of the CD3δ chain and/or CD3ζ protein may change the configuration of the TCR complex, leading to the lack of staining by anti-CD3ε antibody in the DETC of nude mice. This defect of TCR in nude DETC may explain functional abnormalities such as poor response to mitogens and diminished killing activity. Moreover, in ζ-chain deficient mice, full expression of TCR was observed. This fact suggested that DETC may utilize the FcεRIγ chain instead of the ζ chain for cell surface expression or signal transduction of TCR. 相似文献

Levels of serum IgE, serum soluble-Fc epsilon RII (S-Fc epsilon RII), and Fc epsilon RII(+) peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were examined in 73 patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and 17 control subjects with no atopic disease, in order to investigate the correlation of these parameters with AD. AD patients showed increases in IgE, S-Fc epsilon RII and Fc epsilon RII(+)PBL as compared with control subjects. In AD patients, levels of serum IgE and Fc epsilon RII(+)PBL increased as the extent of dermatitis became more severe, while levels of serum S-Fc epsilon RII showed no correlation with the extent of dermatitis. In 8 of the 73 AD patients who showed an improvement in their symptoms with treatment with topical corticosteroids or antihistamine, IgE, Fc epsilon RII(+)PBL, and S-Fc epsilon RII were measured before and after treatment. Fc epsilon RII(+)PBL correlated with disease activity; IgE and S-Fc epsilon RII did not show any such correlation. Patients with elevated IgE levels (IgE greater than 5,000 U/ml) showed low levels of S-Fc epsilon RII. Severely affected cases with a history of respiratory atopy also showed decreased S-Fc epsilon RII levels. It is believed that S-Fc epsilon RII binds to IgE in serum and may neutralize or down-regulate IgE mediated allergic reactions. A low level of S-Fc epsilon RII may cause an elevation of IgE and an exacerbation of the disease. 相似文献

In a 21-year-old female with severe atopic dermatitis, the secretion of interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-4 (IL-4), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) by her peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was measured after incubation with/without antigens extracted from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Dp), to which the patient had developed a positive patch-test reaction. Incubation with Dp antigen produced marked secretion of IL-2 and IFN-γ, but not IL-4. This may suggest that Dp-specific T lymphocytes present in the circulating blood cells are capable of producing IL-2 and IFN-γ, which may be relevant to the delayed-type allergic reaction occurring in the skin lesion. 相似文献

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) is a keratinocyte-derived cytokine whose function in skin is not completely clarified. We investigated its effects on Langerhans cells by examining the amount of IAβ mRNA, β-actin mRNA and rRNA per cell, and compared them with the effects of other cytokines such as granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). After culture for 24 h in the absence of exogenous cytokines, rRNA in Langerhans cells decreased steeply while β-actin mRNA increased. IAβ mRNA also decreased sharply. These decreases in the amount of rRNA and IAβ mRNA were limited when cytokines were added to the culture medium (in order of efficiency M-CSF>GM-CSF>TNF-α), but M-CSF was less potent than GM-CSF in up-regulating β-actin mRNA (GM-CSF>M-CSF, TNF-α). The effect of M-CSF, but not that of GM-CSF, was restricted by simultaneous treatment of cells with TNF-α. None of these effects engendered a change in the viability of the Langerhans cells in a 24-hr culture. Reverse-transcribed polymerase chain reaction analysis demonstrated that c-fms, the gene of the M-CSF receptor, was expressed in Langerhans cells, implying the physiological importance of M-CSF in vivo. A protein kinase C activator, TPA, up-regulated the amount of IAβ mRNA, while a protein kinase C inhibitor, H-7, suppressed the effects of all three cytokines. These results suggest that M-CSF, in conjugation with TNF-α and GM-CSF, plays an important role in controlling the physiological state of Langerhans cells, probably through the activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Recent studies have indicated the importance of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) between the vascular endothelium and activated leukocytes in various inflammatory skin diseases. Soluble forms of CAMs (sCAMs) have also been detected in sera from such diseases. In order to elucidate the role of the soluble forms in skin inflammation, we determined the serum levels of E-selectin, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). Using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, we quantified sCAMs levels in 21 patients with atopic dermatitis and in 16 healthy controls. In severe AD patients, levels of these three types of sCAMs were markedly elevated. sE-selectin was significantly elevated in severe AD over the levels in mild AD. A positive correlation with individual clinical activity was found for changes in the sE-selectin and sVCAM-1 levels. sE-selectin levels were correlated with the serum IgE levels and the number of eosinophils. The sVCAM-1 level was also significantly correlated with the number of monocytes. Among these three molecules, sE-selectin appeared to be the most sensitive clinical parameter in monitoring the clinical course of AD patients. 相似文献

The subject of allergic causation of atopic dermatitis (AD) has been a source of controversy for over sixty years. While there is general agreement of allergen-induced asthma and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, AD lesions cannot be readily or consistently induced by foods and inhalants. The most consistent perturbators of atopic conditions are irritants, probably reflecting the consistent inflammatory cell hyper-reactivity due to elevated cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase activity. The immunologic reactions are another manifestation of that general cellular dysregulation. 相似文献

Peripheral blood monocytes seem to be of importance in the initiation and maintenance of cutaneous inflammatory disorders such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Functional abnormalities of monocytes have been observed in both diseases. We sought to determine whether these abnormalities are reflected by an altered phenotypic expression of functionally active surface molecules. Peripheral blood monocyte subsets varying in cellular density and cell size from patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis were investigated using FACS analysis employing a panel of monoclonal antibodies (CD14, CD16, HLA-DR, HLA-DQ, Fc?RII, IL-2R, ICAM-1, CR3). Furthermore, the modulation of expression by interferon-γ in monocyte subsets from patients was compared to normal controls. The results show that HLA-DR and -DQ expression on monocyte subsets in psoriatic patients was significantly decreased; “large” monocytes expressed significantly less HLA-DR than “small” monocyte subpopulations. Decreased HLA-DR and -DQ expression could be upregulated by incubation of psoriatic monocytes with IFNγ. In atopic dermatitis, a different phenotype pattern of monocyte subsets was demonstrated: HLA-DR expression and HLA-DQ expression were both decreased in both “large” and “small” monocytes as compared to normal controls. However, there were no significant differences in HLA-DR and HLA-DQ expression between “large” and “small” monocyte subpopulations in atopic dermatitis. Moreover, the ICAM-1 and IL-2R expression of “large” and “small” monocyte subpopulations was significantly decreased in atopic patients from levels in normal controls and psoriatic patients. The altered expression of HLA-DR, -DQ, ICAM-1 and IL-2R could be upregulated by incubation of atopic monocytes with IFNγ. In addition, there was a significant increase in the percentage of monocytes in the differential count of patients with psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. We conclude that the differential phenotype pattern of surface molecules on monocytes in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis may reflect an abnormal monocyte maturation/differentiation state. This may explain the functional abnormalities of monocytes observed in patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. 相似文献

Despite their hematopoietic origin, mast cells (MCs) develop exclusively in tissues, hampering their ample use in research. To circumvent this problem, tissue‐derived MCs are typically first expanded in culture, but the changes MCs may undergo in the novel micromilieu are poorly defined. Here, we monitor skin MCs from a number of donors over time, revealing profound yet non‐synchronized modulations in culture. While tryptase and chymase, the most specific markers, strongly decline, FcεRI surface expression, and FcεRI‐mediated histamine release steeply increase (from ≈15.5% to ≈60%), replicated by similar increments in TNF‐α secretion. Interestingly, the modulations are independent of cell cycle progression, as they are comparable in the growth and postgrowth phase, implying they primarily result from microenvironmental conditioning. The data highlight a high degree of MC versatility, but also advise that results based on cultured MCs should be viewed with some caution, as they may not accurately reflect their counterparts in situ. 相似文献
