The role of IL-1 in skin inflammation induced by lupus serum
详细信息    查看官网全文
摘要
Objectives: Systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) is a seriously chronic autoimmune disease, which is characterized by a large number of autoantibodies and multiple organ damage. Skin lesion is one of the common clinical manifestations of lupus erythematosus, but its pathogenesis is not clear. IL-1 is a proinflammatory cytokine, and its role in SLE skin lesion is still unclear.Methods: We used IL-1 receptor deficient mice and other gene deficient mice to study the role of IL-1 in the lupus serum-induced skin inflammation. Results: We found that the severity of skin lesion in IL-1 receptor deficient mice and caspase-1 deficient mice was reduced compared with that in wild type mice. IL-1 receptor deficiency suppressed the expression of FcγRI(CD64) and MHC class II(CD74), and increased the level of FcγRII(CD32) induced by lupus serum. IL-1 receptor deficiency also suppressed the lipid raft clustering and IFN-γ in T cells, and reduced IgG internalization and presentation in macrophage, and decreased expression of MCP-1 and TNFa in monocytes. In addition, TNFa couldpromote the proliferation of kerationocytes.Conclusions: Our findings indicate that IL-1 plays an important role in skin lesions of lupus erythematosus. This study suggests IL-1 is a therapeutic target in skin lesions of systemic lupus erythematosus.
