Research Abstract |
We investigated epidermal IL-1 and IL-1 receptor system immunohistochemically and biochemically. Pro or mature form IL-1 beta specific antibody detected proIL-1 beta but not mature IL-1 beta in normal epidermis. Psoriatic epidermis decreased but contained hematopoietic cell derived mature IL-1 beta. These hematopoietic cells but nit keratinocyte contained IL-1 beta converting enzyme. Epidermis express signal transducable IL-1 receptor type 1 and non-signal transducable IL-1 receptor type 2 scarcely. Organ cultured normal skin and psoriatic lesional epidermis up-regulated expression of decoy IL-1 receptors : type 2 receptors but not type 1 receptors. The IL-1 receptor antagonist normally expressed on epedermis was exhausted in psoriatic lesions. The IL-1 expression was augmented in the inflammatory skin diseases but the over-expression of IL-1s were also strictly controlled multiple natural antagonistic systems : receptor antagonist and decoy receptor over expression.
