%X OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possible role of La ribonucleoprotein 7 (LARP7) in psoriasis through a mouse model and uncover its underlying mechanism.
METHODS: The back skin of C57BL/6 mice was smeared with IMquimod (IMQ) cream for 7 days to induce psoriasis. Immunoblot kit was used to detect the deacetylase activity of SIRT1 (member of sirtuin family). Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to assess the degree of psoriasis in mouse. Flow cytometry assays were performed to confirm effects on Th1/Th17 cell differentiation. Enzyme-linked-immunosorbent serologic assays were used to detect the level of secreted cytokines.
RESULTS: LARP7 upregulated SIRT1 deacetylase activity. LARP7 alleviated psoriasis symptoms in mice by upregulating SIRT1 deacetylase activity. In addition, LARP7 regulated Th1/Th17 cell differentiation in psoriatic mice. We further found that LARP7 inhibited Th1/Th17 cytokine.
CONCLUSIONS: LARP7 upregulated SIRT1 activity and inhibited Th1/Th17 cytokine response in psoriatic mice.
