Abstract:
:Activation of expression of the heme oxygenase (HO) gene appears to be involved in a cellular defense system in mammalian cells. We now demonstrate that while HO-1 mRNA levels are strongly inducible in dermal fibroblasts they are barely inducible in human epidermal keratinocytes following oxidative stress (UVA radiation and hydrogen peroxide). Paralleling this result was the observation that HO-2 mRNA levels were low in dermal fibroblasts but were high in epidermal keratinocytes. In neither case was the HO-2 gene inducible. The expression of the two HO genes led to enzymatic activity in both types of skin cells with an approximately 2.5-fold higher level of enzymatic activity present in keratinocytes compared with fibroblasts derived from the same biopsy. In addition, ferritin levels, which have been found to be augmented via the HO-dependent release of iron from endogenous heme sources, were two- to three-fold higher in keratinocytes compared with matching fibroblasts. This higher ferritin pool would result in an enhancement of cellular iron sequestering capacity that may confer increased resistance to oxidative stress. Indeed, keratinocytes showed less UVA radiation-dependent cell membrane damage than fibroblasts. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that HO expression in human epidermis and dermis is related to cellular defense mechanisms that operate in human skin.
