| Research Abstract |
An agonist peptide for protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) enhanced the IL-1ss- or TNF-α-induced production of CXCL8, which was markedly suppressed by tetracyclines in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK). The PAR2 agonist and IL-17 induced also CXCL1, which was significantly decreased by cyclosporine A, active forms of vitamin D_3 and corticosteroids. These results suggest that the activation of keratinocyte PAR2 is involved in the potentiation of pro-inflammatory reactions and this process is modulated by the drugs used for treatment of inflammatory skin disorders.
