Single-cell transcriptome analysis of CD3+ T lymphocytes from prurigo nodularis lesional skin reveals Th17 polarization
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by symmetrically distributed, intensely pruritic nodules of unknown etiology and unmet therapeutic need. The lack of approved therapies and the limited efficacy of off-label treatments reflect the current poor understanding of its pathogenesis. We aimed to comprehensively characterize the phenotypic variation of CD3+ T cells and asses cell-specific gene expression in the lesional skin of patients with PN versus in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and in healthy controls (HC). To this end, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) using 10x Genomics was carried out to compare CD3+ T cells transcriptomic heterogeneity between lesional samples of PN (n=6), AD (n=5) and HC (n=5).
