Activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor negatively regulates thymic stromal lymphopoietin gene expression via PKCδ-p300- NF-κB pathway in keratinocytes under inflammatory conditions.
Journal of Investigative Dermatology 2018 November 30
Epithelial-derived TSLP (thymic stromal lymphopoietin) plays an important role in pathogenesis in several types of dermatitis. Recently, the anti-inflammatory effects of AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) have been reported in inflamed skin. In this study, keratinocytes were stimulated with TNFα or flagellin in combination with AhR ligands or antagonist. TSLP gene expression and recruitment of transcriptional regulator to TSLP gene promoter were determined. The effects of AhR activation were also studied in DNFB (1-fluoro-2, 4-dinitrobenzene)-induced dermatitis model. We found that AhR activation suppressed up-regulation of TSLP expression in keratinocytes treated with TNFα or flagellin. In addition, AhR activation induced PKCδ-mediated phosphorylation of p300 at serine 89, leading to decreased acetylation and DNA binding activity of NF-κB p65 to the TSLP gene promoter. We also found that AhR activation alleviates dermatitis induced by DNFB treatment. PKCδ depletion by siRNA abolished the beneficial effect of AhR activation on dermatitis. Our study suggests that AhR activation may help to reduce inflammation in the dermatitis via down-regulation of TSLP expression.
