    Profile of skin barrier proteins (filaggrin, claudins 1 and 4) and Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokines in adults with atopic dermatitis
    (2015) BATISTA, D. I. S.; PEREZ, L.; ORFALI, R. L.; ZANIBONI, M. C.; SAMORANO, L. P.; PEREIRA, N. V.; SOTTO, M. N.; ISHIZAKI, A. S.; OLIVEIRA, L. M. S.; SATO, M. N.; AOKI, V.
    BackgroundAtopic dermatitis (AD) in adults and profile of skin barrier proteins and inflammatory cytokines. ObjectiveEvaluation of the expression of skin barrier proteins such as filaggrin, claudins 1 and 4 and of circulating inflammatory cytokines (Th1/Th2/Th17) in adults with AD. MethodsThirty-three adult patients with AD diagnosed according to the Hanifin & Rajkacriteria, and 25 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. AD severity was measured by Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI). Laboratory assays included immunohistochemistry analysis of skin barrier proteins, such as filaggrin, claudins 1 and 4 and interleukin-17 (IL-17) from skin samples and determination of circulating cytokine levels (IL-2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 17A, TNF and IFN-) by flow cytometry (Cytometric Bead Array). ResultsWe observed a reduced expression of filaggrin and claudin 1 in lesional skin of AD patients, when compared to controls. There was an inverse correlation of filaggrin expression and disease severity. In addition, IL-17 expression was enhanced in AD patients. Similarly, higher levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, 5, 6, 10, 17A and IFN-) were found in AD patients. ConclusionOur data reinforce the role of an altered skin barrier in the pathogenesis of AD. Our results show not only reduced expression of filaggrin and claudin 1 in lesional atopic skin but also inverse correlation of filaggrin expression and disease severity. Moreover, elevation of in situ IL-17 and of circulating interleukin levels in AD emphasize the systemic, inflammatory profile of this defective skin barrier dermatosis.

    Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins modulate IL-22-secreting cells in adults with atopic dermatitis
    (2018) ORFALI, Raquel Leao; OLIVEIRA, Luanda Mara da Silva; LIMA, Josenilson Feitosa de; CARVALHO, Gabriel Costa de; RAMOS, Yasmim Alefe Leuzzi; PEREIRA, Natalli Zanete; PEREIRA, Naiura Vieira; ZANIBONI, Mariana Colombini; SOTTO, Mirian Nacagami; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; SATO, Maria Notomi; AOKI, Valeria
    Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory immune-mediated skin disease characterized by skin colonization by Staphylococcus aureus. Interleukin (IL)-22, in cooperation with IL-17, triggers antimicrobial peptide elaboration and enhances certain immunological responses. In AD, IL-22 is related to epidermal hyperplasia, keratinocyte apoptosis, and inhibition of antimicrobial peptide (AMP) production. We aimed to evaluate the impact of staphylococcal enterotoxins on the Tc22/Th22 induction in the peripheral blood of AD patients and on CD4(+/)CD8(+)T cells expressing IL-22 in AD skin. Our study showed inhibition of the staphylococcal enterotoxins A and B (SEA and SEB) response by Th22 (CD4(+)IL22(+)IL-17A(-)IFN-gamma(-)) cells in AD patients. In contrast, Tc22 (CD8(+)IL-22(+)IL-17A(-)IFN-gamma(-)) cells were less susceptible to the inhibitory effects of staphylococcal enterotoxins and exhibited an enhanced response to the bacterial stimuli. In AD skin, we detected increased IL-22 transcript expression and T lymphocytes expressing IL-22. Together, our results provide two major findings in response to staphylococcal enterotoxins in adults with AD: dysfunctional CD4(+)IL-22 secreting T cells and increased Tc22 cells. Our hypothesis reinforces the relevance of CD8 T cells modulated by staphylococcal enterotoxins as a potential source of IL-22 in adults with AD, which is relevant for the maintenance of immunological imbalance.
