Cathepsin S, a new pruritus biomarker in clinical dandruff/seborrhoeic dermatitis evaluation

Abstract: Dandruff/seborrhoeic dermatitis (D/SD) is characterized by Malassezia colonization, impaired barrier function with subsequent inflammation, resulting in dandruff and itching. Histamine is one of the biomarkers of pruritus now widely used in treatment efficacy trials. The exact mechanism leading to histamine release and pruritus is not yet clear. However, it could involve cathepsin S, an activator of proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the levels of cathepsin S, PAR… Show more

“…In the present study, the PgLPS-induced PAR2 activation in the isolated splenic DCs from wild-type mice was completely inhibited in CatS -/- mice ( Figure 5 ), indicating that CatS is involved in PAR2 activation during inflammation (Cattaruzza et al, 2011; Viode et al, 2014). CatS is active at a neutral pH, consistent with its extracellular biological activity (Storm van’s Gravesande et al, 2002), and the PgLPS-induced increase in the IL-6 mRNA expression in splenic DCs from wild-type mice was significantly inhibited by Akti, a specific inhibitor Akt kinase, which is consistent with the findings from previous reports showing CatS-activated PAR2 signaling through the PI3K/Akt pathway in human glioblastoma cells (Dutra-Oliveira et al, 2012).…”

“…We next focused on the PAR2 activation and signaling pathways after exposure to PgLPS using the isolated CD11c + DCs, because the CatS-cleaved PAR2 activation is related to the IL-6 expression (Cattaruzza et al, 2011; Viode et al, 2014). The immunoreactivities for PAR2 were significantly higher in the CD11c + DCs from wild-type mice than in the non-PgLPS-exposed isolated CD11c + DCs, but not in those from CatS -/- mice, after exposure to PgLPS for 24 h ( Figures 4B,C ).…”

“…Increased cat S expression has been reported in several common inflammatory skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis 18 , 19 , 38 . Under these conditions, cat S may simultaneously contribute to itch and propagate inflammation via different but related mechanisms.…”

“…Sebaceous glands contribute to skin barrier function and their alteration may play a role in the pathogenesis of seborrheic dermatitis and other common skin diseases such as acne vulgaris, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and rosacea [30]. There is a significant increase in the levels of the biological markers cathepsin S, proteinase-activated receptor 2 and histamine patients with seborrheic dermatitis which correlate with clinical parameters [31].…”
