CD200/CD200 receptor axis in psoriasis vulgaris.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory multisystem disease with imbalance between the Th17 and T regulatory sub-populations. CD200/CD200R is an anti-inflammatory/immune-suppressive axis that might contribute to its pathogenesis given its relation to the Tregs induction. The current study aimed to investigate the status of the CD200/CD200R axis in the blood of psoriasis vulgaris patients versus healthy controls. METHODS:In this comparative cross sectional study, the blood levels of sCD200 and CD200R levels were measured in 25 psoriasis vulgaris patients and an age and sex matched 25 healthy controls using ELISA and flow-cytometry respectively. Their levels were tested for correlation to disease severity. RESULTS:sCD200 was significantly higher while CD200R was significantly lower in psoriasis vulgaris patients than in controls. They did not correlate to each other or to psoriasis severity although they differed significantly among cases of different severities. CONCLUSION:Aberrant expression of CD200/CD200R might play a role in psoriasis vulgaris pathophysiology and disease severity. It might constitute a future target of therapy, but cannot be used as a marker of disease severity.

Project description:IntroductionThe skin immune system is tightly regulated to prevent inappropriate inflammation in response to harmless environmental substances. This regulation is actively maintained by mechanisms including cytokines and cell surface receptors and its loss results in inflammatory disease. In the case of psoriasis, inappropriate immune activation leads to IL-17-driven chronic inflammation, but molecular mechanisms underlying this loss of regulation are not well understood. Immunoglobulin family member CD200 and its receptor, CD200R1, are important regulators of inflammation. Therefore, we determined if this pathway is dysregulated in psoriasis, and how this affects immune cell activity.MethodsHuman skin biopsies were examined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemistry. The role of CD200R1 in regulating psoriasis-like skin inflammation was examined using CD200R1 blocking antibodies in mouse psoriasis models. CD200R1 blocking antibodies were also used in an in vivo neutrophil recruitment assay and in vitro assays to examine macrophage, innate lymphoid cell, γδ T cell, and neutrophil activity.ResultsWe reveal that CD200 and signaling via CD200R1 are reduced in non-lesional psoriasis skin. In mouse models of psoriasis CD200R1 was shown to limit psoriasis-like inflammation by enhancing acanthosis, CCL20 production and neutrophil recruitment, but surprisingly, macrophage function and IL-17 production were not affected, and neutrophil reactive oxygen species production was reduced.ConclusionCollectively, these data show that CD200R1 affects neutrophil function and limits inflammatory responses in healthy skin by restricting neutrophil recruitment. However, the CD200 pathway is reduced in psoriasis, resulting in a loss of immune control, and increased neutrophil recruitment in mouse models. In conclusion, we highlight CD200R1:CD200 as a pathway that might be targeted to dampen inflammation in patients with psoriasis.
