Summary The aim of the present study was to test further our previous hypothesis that the inflammatory reaction in psoriasis is neurogenic. For this purpose, contact sites between mast cells and sensory nerves were morphometrically analysed in the basement membrane zone, papillary dermis and three dermal zones of lesional/non-lesional psoriatic and lichen planus skin as well as in healthy control skin. The analyses were made on sections stained with a histochemical double stain developed for this study. With the double stain, active mast cell tryptase was stained blue enzyme histochemically, and the sensory nerves black using specific monoclonal anti-neurofilament antibodies with immunogold. In psoriatic lesions, both mast cells and mast cell — nerve contacts were markedly more frequent in the basement membrane zone and in the papillary dermis when compared with the corresponding areas in the other groups. Mast cell numbers were increased in both lesional and symptom-free skin in lichen planus, but no increase was found in the mast cell — nerve contacts. Increased contacts between mast cells and sensory nerves indicate that the elements exist for neurogenic inflammation in psoriatic lesions. These increased contacts are not due to the extensive inflammatory reaction only, because they were not observed in lichen planus lesions. 相似文献

The number and distribution of mast cells in nonlesional and lesional skin samples from 13 psoriatic patients were analyzed enzyme- and immunohistochemically. Mast cell tryptase was stained with the sensitive substrate Z-Gly-Pro-Arg-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamide, and chymase with Suc-Val-Pro-Phe-MNA and monoclonal B7 anti-chymase antibody. In addition, healthy-looking skin from 27 psoriatic patients was tape-stripped resulting in induction of the Köbner response in 9 patients. Sequential biopsies were taken before and after (7, 14 and 21 days) tape-stripping, and both tryptase and chymase were stained enzyme-histochemically. In nonlesional psoriatic skin, 70 ± 24% (mean ± SD) of the mast cells contained chymase enzyme activity, and 78 ± 18% chymase immunoreactivity. About 10% of the chymase-immunoreactive cells lacked chymase activity. In lesional psoriatic skin, tryptase-positive cells were increased in number throughout the dermis but especially beneath the epidermis. Chymase immunoreactivity paralleled the tryptase activity, whereas chymase activity was strongly diminished both in terms of mast cell numbers and in staining intensity in the papillary dermis. The apparent inactivation of chymase may be due to the action of the chymase inhibitors, 1-antitrypsin and 1-antichymotrypsin, localized immunohistochemically in mast cells of lesional and nonlesional psoriatic skin. In the developing psoriatic lesion, mast cells displaying chymase activity were already 27–38% decreased in number in the upper dermis on day 7 after tape-stripping, along with the first clinical signs of psoriasis. Earliest alterations in tryptase-positive cells were observed on day 14 as increased mast cell contacts with the epidermis combined with only a slight increase in mast cell numbers in the upper dermis. During the development of a psoriatic lesion, TC mast cells (tryptase+, chymase+) increase in number in the upper dermis, but chymase becomes inactive at an early stage. The abundant presence of active trypase but inactive chymase in the upper dermis may have a potential role in psoriasis since both of these enzymes can process several biologically active peptides and proteins. 相似文献

Skin nerve fibres and their contacts with mast cells in patients with palmoplantar pustulosis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Abstract Patients with palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) frequently report that stress worsens their condition. A study was therefore
made of the distribution and number of nerve fibres positive for protein gene product (PGP) 9.5 (a general nerve marker) and
nerve fibres with substance P- and calcitonin gene-related peptide-like immunoreactivity in involved skin from patients with
PPP and in skin from healthy controls. The number of mast cells in the papillary dermis was larger (P = 0.0003) in lesional palmar PPP skin than in control skin, and the number of contacts between mast cells and nerve fibres
was significantly larger (P = 0.02) in PPP skin than in control skin. Image analysis of the nerve fibres around the sweat glands showed that the positively
stained area as a percentage of the total area of the sweat gland (coil + surrounding nerves) was significantly lower in PPP
skin (P = 0.0006). Furthermore, the nerves seemed to be fragmented. Neutrophils within and below the pustules and in the papillary
dermis showed positive substance P staining. The increased number of contacts between nerves and mast cells in PPP skin and
the intense substance P-like immunoreactivity of the neutrophils indicate that neuromediation may influence the inflammation
in PPP, whereas the destruction of the nerve fibres around the sweat glands might be a result of the inflammation.

Human mast cells are well known to produce a serine protease, tryptase, which appears to play a pathogenic role in various
skin inflammations. It was previously reported that a rat homologue of bikunin may inhibit tryptase activity. Various type
of cells (i.e. keratinocytes) are able to produce this protein inhibitor, it still remains unclear if bikunin is present in
dermal inflammatory milieu, in which mast cells, through secretion of tryptase, play an inflammatory role. Therefore, the
purpose of the present study was to exploit expression and production of bikunin in dermis and dermal constituents. We first
compared the dermal mast cells in psoriatic lesions with those in lesional skin of atopic dermatitis or of chronic eczema
by use of immunoelectron microscopy and immunohistochemical analyses using antibodies to bikunin and tryptase. Then, we tested
what kinds of cytokines may regulate the de novo synthesis of bikunin. To do so, RNA was extracted from a human mastocytic
cell line, HMC-1, reverse-transcribed, and semiquantitative RT-PCR was performed using primers specific for bikunin. With
immunoelectron microscopy, bikunin was found to localize on the cell membrane, while tryptase was in the secretary granules
of the mast cells. In psoriatic lesions, around 70% of dermal mast cells were positive for both tryptase and bikunin, and
the remaining was mostly positive for tryptase, but the expression of bikunin was under the detection limit of the experimental
setting. This observation was seen in only psoriatic lesions, even in almost cured lesions, while in atopic dermatitis or
chronic eczema only mast cells doubly positive for bikuin and tryptase were seen. In HMC-1, bikunin was constitutively expressed
at an mRNA level, which was upregulated by stimulation with interleukine-4, but was suppressed by interferon-γ. Bearing in
mind the concept that in psoriasis local cytokine milieu is shifted toward a Th1 pattern (predominant secretion of interferon-γ),
tryptase-positive, bikunin-negative mast cells may be induced. 相似文献

Summary Tryptase-containing mast cells have recently been found to be increased in the upper dermis of psoriatic lesions. In the present study, the distribution of chymaseand tryptase-containing mast cells was morphometrically analysed at different dermal levels of lesional and non-lesional psoriatic skin (12 patients) as well as normal human skin. Mast cell tryptase was identified enzyme-histochemically, using Z-Gly-Pro-Arg-MNA as the substrate. For demonstrating mast cell chymase, a simple and specific enzyme-histochemical staining method was developed, using Suc-Val-Pro-Phe-MNA as the substrate. All mast cells positive for chymase were also positive for tryptase and Giemsa stain. Although the number of tryptase-positive mast cells was slightly increased throughout the dermis of lesional psoriatic skin, this increase was most pronounced in the upper dermis immediately beneath, and in close contact with, the epidermis. In contrast, the number of chymase-positive mast cells was clearly decreased in the upper dermis of psoriatic lesions, but not in the deeper dermis, as compared with non-lesional psoriatic skin. In addition, all chymase-positive mast cells observed in the upper dermis were very weakly stained when compared with those in the deeper dermis. No differences were found between non-lesional psoriatic skin and normal skin in which the number of mast cells containing chymase was 72–73% of the number containing tryptase. The present results suggest that T mast cells particularly, containing tryptase but no chymase, proliferate in psoriatic lesions, and that the increase in tryptase activity and the decrease in chymase activitiy in the upper dermis may lead to an imbalance in the biochemical regulatory systems. 相似文献

In this study we established a coculture system for rat peritoneal mast cells (MC) with psoriatic (PSO) dermal fibroblasts. Rat MC adhered within five minutes to the fibroblasts monolayer and their attachment and viability was maintained for at least 2-3 days. Cocultured MC could be activated to release high percentages of histamine with compound 48/80 indicating that they retained their full functional activity. Attachment, viability and functional activity were similar for MC seeded on PSO fibroblasts or on normal human fibroblasts (NOR) used as a control. This would indicate that PSO fibroblasts altered biochemical characteristics do not interfere with these MC properties. We suggest that this coculture system is a suitable in vitro defined model to study mutual effects of MC and fibroblasts in psoriasis. 相似文献

Summary Numbers and volume fractions of mast cells in nonlesional and chronic lesional skin of psoriatic patients were compared with those of normal control skin. Mast cell densities were similar in psoriatic nonlesional and normal control skin. The superficial dermis of lesional psoriatic skin contained more mast cells than either normal or nonlesional psoriatic skin. Neither PUVA nor corticosteroid treatment for 3–4 weeks significantly reduced mast cell numbers or volume fractions in lesional skin, although both treatments clinically and histologically markedly improved the lesions. The results indicate that the initiation of the healing process in psoriatic plaques is not correlated with the mast cell density. The remaining high mast cell density may be normalized later, or after a longer therapy. 相似文献

Close contacts between mast cells (MC) and nerve fibers have previously been demonstrated in normal and inflamed skin by light
and electron microscopy. A key step for any study in MC-nerve interactions in situ is to simultaneously visualize both communication
partners, preferably with the option of double labelling the nerve fibers. For this purpose, we developed the following triple-staining
technique. After paraformaldehyde-picric acid perfusion fixation, cryostat sections of back skin from C57BL/6 mice were incubated
with a primary rat monoclonal antibody to substance P (SP), followed by incubation with a secondary goat-anti-rat TRITC-conjugated
IgG. A rabbit antiserum to CGRP was then applied, followed by a secondary goat-anti-rabbit FITC-conjugated IgG. MCs were visualized
by incubation with AMCA-labelled avidin, or (for a more convenient quantification of close MC-nerve fiber contacts) with a
mixture of TRITC- and FITC-labelled avidins. Using this simple, novel covisualization method, we were able to show that MC-nerve
associations in mouse skin are, contrary to previous suggestions, highly selective for nerve fiber types, and that these interactions
are regulated in a hair cycle-dependent manner: in telogen and early anagen skin, MCs preferentially contacted CGRP-immunoreactive
(IR) or SP/CGRP-IR double-labelled nerve fibers. Compared with telogen values, there was a significant increase in the number
of close contacts between MCs and tyrosine hydroxylase-IR fibers during late anagen, and between MCs and peptide histidine-methionine-IR
and choline acetyl transferase-IR fibers during catagen.

Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease of unknown aetiology. Many observations indicate that T cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Upregulation of MHC class-II molecules on immunocompetent cells, endothelial cells and keratinocytes on lesional psoriatic skin has been regarded as a hallmark of the disease. However, there is some controversy in the literature regarding the cell types expressing class-II molecules and there is limited information about the presence of immune cells other than T cells and antigen presenting cells in the cellular infiltrates of psoriatic skin. We therefore reinvestigated the subject using immunocytochemical single and multiple staining techniques. In agreement with earlier reports, our studies showed that the cellular infiltrates in lesional skin consist largely of HLA-DR+/IL-2R+ T cells, HLA-DR+/CD1a+ Langerhans cells, and HLA-DR+/CD68+ macrophages. We found increased HLA-DR expression mostly on immunocompetent cells and endothelial cells, but no prominent HLA-DR expression on keratinocytes in lesional psoriatic skin. Upregulation of HLA-DR on endothelial cells and in mononuclear infiltrates was also evident in the non-lesional skin of psoriatic patients as compared with normal controls. B cells and natural killer cells were also found in the cellular infiltrates in lesional psoriatic skin. In spite of the presence of a large amount of activated T cells in the epidermis, we found that HLA-DR expression on keratinocytes was not a major feature of psoriatic skin. 相似文献

Mast cells and macrophages in early relapsing psoriasis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Summary Five patients with widespread plaque-type psoriasis were treated continuously with clobetasol under occlusion. Clinical healing was seen after 6–10 days of treatment. All plaques treated in this way clinically relapsed approximately 12 days later. During the period of remission, sequential biopsies were taken and prepared for light and electron microscopy. Histologically, the earliest indications of relapse were endothelial alterations (swelling, intercellular widening) followed by the appearance of mast cells around the postcapillary venules; these mast cells showed signs of degranulation. Hours later, activated macrophages showing pericellular edema were present, and these migrated into the epidermis soon after. Associated with the presence of macrophages, there was a complete loss of desmosome-tonofilament complexes. Later, lymphocytes and neutrophils were seen. Under these experimental conditions, the psoriatic-tissue alterations appear to have been initiated by degranulating mast cells as well as by macrophages which later invaded the epidermis.This paper was presented at the 14th Meeting of the ESDR (Amsterdam, April 1984) 相似文献

Abstract The release of cytokines from cutaneous cells may be of major importance in the initiation and development of many inflammatory
skin disorders. For example, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), which in healthy skin is found preformed only in mast cells,
is able to induce the expression of several adhesion molecules including intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Increased
expression of ICAM-1 occurs in keratinocytes in lesional skin of psoriasis and atopic dermatitis (AD) and it is considered
to be an important initiator of leucocyte/keratinocyte interactions in skin inflammation. We counted the mast cells showing
TNF-α immunoreactivity using a double-staining method in nonlesional and lesional skin sections from 12 patients with AD and
12 patients with psoriasis. The percentage of TNF-α+ mast cells in lesional and nonlesional AD skin was 36 ± 22% and 21 ± 15% (P < 0.018, paired t-test), respectively, and in psoriatic skin was 16 ± 25% and 15 ± 15%, respectively (P < 0.89, paired t-test). We also cultured whole skin biopsies taken from the healthy-looking skin of psoriatic and AD patients in the presence
of mast cell degranulator compound 48/80, which resulted in focal expression of ICAM-1 in the epidermis. In cultured keratinocytes,
both histamine and an extract of a human mast-cell line (HMC-1) induced ICAM-1 immunostaining only in occasional cells, but
the combination of histamine and the HMC-1 extract resulted in intense ICAM-1 staining in numerous cells. This enhancement
of ICAM-1 staining was abolished by preincubation of the HMC-1 extract with anti-TNF-α antibody. These results suggest that
the degranulation of mast cells induces the expression of ICAM-1 in keratinocytes probably via TNF-α and histamine.

Mast cells (MC) are of hematopoietic origin but complete their differentiation exclusively within tissues. The mediators that positively or negatively affect the maturation process are incompletely defined. Here, the human MC line HMC-1 (subclone 5C6) was used along with several treatments (IL-4, IL-6, NGF), either alone or in combination, and MC differentiation was monitored by flow-cytometric analysis of c-kit, tryptase, and FcRI expression. Of the different treatments, IL-4 displayed the clearest effects by suppressing the expression of the three markers and inhibiting cellular growth, while the other cytokines had no (NGF) or negligible (IL-6) effects only. The downregulating effects of IL-4 could not be overcome by any other treatment. There is some controversy in the literature as to the impact of IL-4 on the MC lineage. To determine whether the effects from IL-4 were differentiation stage dependent, two further human MC subsets (skin MC and LAD 2 cells) were investigated. No effects on c-kit and FcRI expression were noted when terminally differentiated skin MC were used as target cells, while a modest downregulation of c-kit was observed with intermediately matured LAD 2 cells. In sharp contrast to HMC-1 5C6 cells, the survival of skin MC was significantly enhanced by IL-4 treatment. Our data therefore imply that at a lower maturation stage, IL-4 acts as a negative regulator of the MC lineage, but that this property disappears or is even reversed upon terminal differentiation of the cell. Our study provides direct proof that the effects of IL-4 vary substantially in the course of MC maturation. 相似文献
