abstract = {Interleukin (IL)-36 cytokines belong to the IL-1 family and include three agonists, IL-36 α, β and γ and one inhibitor, IL-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra). IL-36 and IL-1 (α and β) activate similar intracellular pathways via their related heterodimeric receptors, IL-36R/IL-1RAcP and IL-1R1/IL-1RAcP, respectively. However, excessive IL-36 versus IL-1 signaling induces different phenotypes in humans, which may be related to differential expression of their respective receptors. We examined the expression of IL-36R, IL-1R1 and IL-1RAcP mRNA in human peripheral blood, tonsil and skin immune cells by RT-qPCR. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDC), M0, M1 or M2-polarized macrophages, primary keratinocytes, dermal macrophages and Langerhans cells (LC) were stimulated with IL-1β or IL-36β. Cytokine production was assessed by RT-qPCR and immunoassays. The highest levels of IL-36R mRNA were found in skin-derived keratinocytes, LC, dermal macrophages and dermal CD1a(+) DC. In the blood and in tonsils, IL-36R mRNA was predominantly found in myeloid cells. By contrast, IL-1R1 mRNA was detected in almost all cell types with higher levels in tonsil and skin compared to peripheral blood immune cells. IL-36β was as potent as IL-1β in stimulating M2 macrophages, keratinocytes and LC, less potent than IL-1β in stimulating M0 macrophages and MDDC, and exerted no effects in M1 and dermal macrophages. Levels of IL-1Ra diminished the ability of M2 macrophages to respond to IL-1. Taken together, these data are consistent with the association of excessive IL-36 signaling with an inflammatory skin phenotype and identify human LC and M2 macrophages as new IL-36 target cells.},

abstract = {Langerhans cells (LC) are the dendritic APC population of the epidermis, where they reside for long periods and are self-replicating. The molecular signals underlying these characteristics are unknown. The TNF superfamily member receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL, TNFSF11) has been shown to sustain viability of blood dendritic cells in addition to its role in promoting proliferation and differentiation of several cell types, notably osteoclasts. In this study, we have studied expression of the RANKL system in skin and have defined a key role for this molecule in LC homeostasis. In vitro and in vivo, human KC expressed RANKL and epidermal LC expressed cell surface RANK. In vitro, RANKL sustained CD34(+) progenitor-derived LC viability following 72-h cultures in cytokine-free medium (79.5 +/- 1% vs 55.2 +/- 5.7% live cells, respectively; n = 4; p textless 0.05). In vivo, RANKL-deficient mice displayed a marked reduction in epidermal LC density (507.1 +/- 77.2 vs 873.6 +/- 41.6 LC per mm(2); n = 9; p textless 0.05) and their proliferation was impaired without a detectable effect on apoptosis. These data indicate a key role for the RANKL system in the regulation of LC survival within the skin and suggest a regulatory role for KC in the maintenance of epidermal LC homeostasis},
