TRPV3 mediates Propionibacterium acnes-induced chemotaxis and inflammation in sebocytes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: TRPV3 is highly expressed in human skin and is involved in the development of inflammatory dermatoses. However, it remains unclear whether TRPV3 influences inflammation in human sebaceous glands and its role in the pathogenesis of acne. Here, we showed that TRPV3 expression was increased in the sebaceous glands of facial acne lesions and acne-like mice. TRPV3 increased the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in human SZ95 sebocytes, as well as the chemotaxis of neutrophils, which were the major immune cells found in acne lesions. We demonstrated that P.acnes promoted TRPV3 expression through regulating lipid profile especially upregulated arachidonic acid levels in human sebocytes. TRPV3 further upregulated TLR2 expression by promoting transcriptional factor p-FOSL1 expression and its binding to the TLR2 promoter, leading to downstream NF-κB signaling activation. Importantly, either genetic silencing or pharmacological inhibition of TRPV3 alleviated acne-like inflammation in mice, showing reduced acne-characteristic cytokines and chemokines production and neutrophil infiltration by inhibiting the TLR2-NF-κB axis. Thus, our study revealed the critical role of TRPV3 in sebocytes inflammation, which was involved in the development of acne, indicating that TRPV3 is a potential therapeutic target for acne and other disorders of the pilosebaceous unit.
