Epigenetic control of IL-23 expression in keratinocytes is important for chronic skin inflammation

Abstract: The chronic skin inflammation psoriasis is crucially dependent on the IL-23/IL-17 cytokine axis. Although IL-23 is expressed by psoriatic keratinocytes and immune cells, only the immune cell-derived IL-23 is believed to be disease relevant. Here we use a genetic mouse model to show that keratinocyte-produced IL-23 is sufficient to cause a chronic skin inflammation with an IL-17 profile. Furthermore, we reveal a cell-autonomous nuclear function for the actin polymerizing molecule N-WASP, which controls IL-23 ex… Show more

“…Keratinocyte‐derived IL‐23 has been shown to be sufficient to mediate skin inflammation in murine models . In a murine model of selective loss of IL‐23 in keratinocytes, skin inflammation was reduced, suggesting that epithelial cells may also serve as an additional source of IL‐23 in inflammation .…”

“…A recent study by Li et al demonstrate that epigenetic regulation of keratinocytes can contribute to chronic skin inflammation [34]. Actin polymerizing molecule N-WASP is capable of modulating interleukin IL-23 expression in keratinocytes by regulating the degradation of the histone methyltransferases G9a and GLP, as well as H3K9 dimethylation level of the IL-23 promoter.…”

“…Actin polymerizing molecule N-WASP is capable of modulating interleukin IL-23 expression in keratinocytes by regulating the degradation of the histone methyltransferases G9a and GLP, as well as H3K9 dimethylation level of the IL-23 promoter. This mechanism mediates the induction of IL-23 by tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), a known inducer of IL-23 in psoriasis [34]. …”
