Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease mediated by T cells. However, treatment remains a clinical challenge because of its frequent recurrence. Celastrol (Cel), the main active ingredient in Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F, is efficacious in treating autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis. To investigate the effect and mechanism of topical Cel in imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like inflammation in mice. Female C57BL/6 and Langerin-diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) mice were divided into Vehicle group and Cel gel groups. IMQ was used induce psoriasis-like inflammation to establish the mouse model of psoriasis. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to observe changes in local inflammatory cells in the skin lesions. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect protein expression levels. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell number and cytokine expression. Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect cytokine gene expression. Cel gel targeted the Langerhans cells. In IMQ-induced psoriatic dermatitis, Cel gel reduced the secretion of interleukin (IL)− 23 by Langerhans cells, suppressed the interaction between Langerhans cells and γδT cells, and decreased the number of activated γδT cells and related IL-17 secretion, alleviating psoriasis-like inflammation. Furthermore, Cel gel demonstrated a glucocorticoid-like effect that could impede the recurrence of psoriasis. Cel gel reduces the secretion of IL-23 from LCs and inhibits the interaction between LCs and γδT cells to alleviate psoriasis. It also shows an effect similar to that of glucocorticoids, which can prevent psoriasis recurrence. These findings provide a new direction for the clinical treatment of psoriasis and contribute to the development of novel drugs. 1. What is already known about this topic? Cel, the main active ingredient in Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F, has been efficacious in treating autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis. 2. What does this article add to our knowledge? Cel gel inhibits the interaction between LCs and γδT cells to alleviate psoriasis. It shows an effect similar to that of glucocorticoids, which can prevent the recurrence of psoriasis. 3. How does this study impact current management guidelines? These findings contribute to the potential development of novel drugs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
