Abstract:
BACKGROUND:While immunologic events elicited by acute barrier disruption or UVB irradiation have been studied in detail, the biological sequel of multiple insults to the skin is not well understood. OBJECTIVE:Since the skin would receive a variety of simultaneous stimuli in daily life, we tested the effects of sequential treatments with barrier disruption and UVB exposure on skin immunity. METHODS:Earlobes of BALB/c mice received tape-stripping and subsequently low-dose UVB exposure. Control mice were treated with either tape-stripping or UVB. The expression of surface markers and cytokine production in Langerhans cells and keratinocytes and the elicitation response of contact hypersensitivity were compared. RESULTS:By flow cytometry, tape-stripping augmented the expression of MHC class II, CD54, CD80, CD86 and CD40 on Langerhans cells, whereas UVB decreased the expression of some of these molecules. Combination of tape-stripping and UVB induced largely intermediate levels between these two. Upon stimulation with L cells expressing CD40L, Langerhans cells from tape-stripped and UVB-irradiated earlobes strongly transcribed mRNA for interleukin-1beta compared to each treatment. In keratinocytes, tape-stripping or UVB slightly upregulated tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1alpha production at both mRNA and protein levels, whereas these two treatments synergistically increased the production of these cytokines. The in vitro hapten-presenting ability of Langerhans cells to trinitrophenyl-immune lymph node T cells ranked first in tape-stripping, second in tape-stripping plus UVB and third in UVB, and so did the intensity of elicitation responses in contact hypersensitivity to a hapten, picryl chloride. CONCLUSION:It is suggested that barrier disruption and UVB antagonize with each other in contact hypersensitivity as a reflection of their effects on Langerhans cell antigen-presenting function, but they synergize in cytokine production by both Langerhans cells and keratinocytes.
