Increased expression of uPA, uPAR, and PAI-1 in psoriatic skin and in basal cell carcinomas

Abstract: There is substantial evidence implicating the urokinase system in tissue remodeling during neo-vascularization, inflammation, tumor invasion, and metastasis. Regulated degradation of the extracellular matrix at the leading edge of migrating cells, mediated by uPA and uPAR, is required for tissue remodeling, invasiveness, and angiogenesis. Psoriasis and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are the most common skin diseases. Pathogenesis of both of them is associated with keratinocyte hyperproliferation, inflammatory cell… Show more

“…SuPAR was highly expressed in the dermis of patients with psoriasis, yet its serum levels failed to correlate with disease severity. Nonetheless, suPAR’s value needs to be better studied in patients with various stages of psoriasis to confirm these findings 45. SLE is another dermatological autoinflammatory disease, characterised by systemic inflammation that involves nearly all the vital organs.…”

“…The serine protease activity of plasmin has been found to be involved in inflammatory reactions, tissue remodelling and degradation of matrix proteins in several immune-mediated dermatological and rheumatological diseases 45. Such conditions are characterised by multifactorial pathways leading to systemic inflammation with end-organ damage.…”

“…The conditioned medium from an epidermal model cultured at low humidity enhanced MMP-1 secretion by normal human dermal fibroblasts [7]. DPP4, EMMPRIN, GDF-15, HGF, uPAR, MIP-3α, ST2 and leptin, which were regulated at reduced humidity in our experiment, are known to have functions in skin remodeling and inflammation [18][19][20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…In addition to their expression changes associated with wound repair [63], the cohort of SERPINE (plasminogen activator inhibitor 1), PLAUR (plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor), and PLAU (plasminogen activator, urokinase) are upregulated in psoriasis compared to amounts beneath the limits of detection or at very low levels in healthy epidermis [64]. As compared to HaCaT keratinocytes with usual levels of TNIP1 protein under poly (I:C) conditions, TNIP1-deficient cells exposed to this DAMP/PAMP had increased expression of each of the following: SERPINE, 9-fold; PLAUR,~3-fold; and PLAU,~2-fold.…”
