In addition, epidermal keratinocytes act as active innate immune cells. In response to sensing pathogen-associated molecular patterns PAMPs expressed by microbes and host danger molecules, innate immune receptors present on keratinocytes become activated, causing release of inflammatory cytokines and host antimicrobial molecules [ 2 , 3 ]. The first step of any immune response is recognition of potential pathogens.
Signaling through PRRs has long been known to be essential for activation of the innate immune response.
For example, stimulation of TLR2 increases the immune response to pathogens and helps rescue the inflammatory response of immunosuppressed patients with sepsis [ 5 ]. Although PRRs are not as specific as immune effectors of the adaptive immune system, different PRRs have evolved to recognize different molecular patterns [ 6 ]. For example, TLR2, TLR6, and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 NOD2 appear to play an important role in host defense against staphylococcal aureus, whereas TLRs 2, 3, 7, 8, and 9 have been found to be activated by many viruses, including members of the herpesviruses, papillomaviruses, and poxviruses [ 7 , 8 ].
CLRs and TLRs 2, 4, and 9 are thought to be primary receptors involved in recognition of fungal pathogens such as Candida albicans , and there are reports of specific PRR deficiencies in patients with chronic mucocutaneous infections [ 9 , 10 ]. Inflammatory cytokines recruit neutrophils and macrophages to the site of injury and promote production of AMPs by these inflammatory cells and also by keratinocytes. Commensal bacteria, such as Staphylococcus epidermidis , promote AMP production.
Pathogenic bacteria, such as S. Activation of PRRs leads to initiation of the inflammatory cascade. Polymorphic neutrophils are recruited by CXC chemokines containing asparagine-leucine-arginine ELR motifs, such as IL-8, which transmigrate across capillary walls and interact with adhesion molecules [ 12 ]. Neutrophils begin phagocytosis of pathogens and tissue debridement. Later during inflammatory cascade, macrophages are the predominant immune cell type.
Macrophages of the pro-inflammatory phenotype M1 continue phagocytosis as well as amplify the inflammatory response. Antimicrobial proteins AMPs are produced by keratinocytes, infiltrating immune cells, and skin commensal organisms and provide antibiotic-like protection for the skin. AMPs are directly bactericidal through cell lysis, with a preference for prokaryotic cell membranes [ 13 ]. Other antimicrobial mechanisms include inhibition of bacteria protein and DNA synthesis.
Antifungal mechanism of AMPs involve disruption of the fungal mitochondrial membrane [ 13 ]. Two families of AMPs, cathelicidins and defensins, are illustrative of the potent activity of these proteins.
Cathelicidins and defensins provide broad-spectrum protection against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria [ 14 ]. For example, the human cathelicidin LL has potent direct antibacterial activity against bacteria such as Group A Streptococcus GAS , and mice deficient in cathelicidins have been shown to have higher susceptibility to GAS infection [ 15 ].
Some defensins, including hBD1, are expressed constitutively in epithelial cells [ 14 ], whereas others, such as hBD2, are only constitutively expressed at very low levels, with a dramatic increase in their production during inflammation [ 17 ]. One AMP, dermcidin, is released by sweat glands and displays broad antimicrobial activity, demonstrating a role for sweat in microbial protection [ 18 ].
In addition to direct activity against pathogens, AMPs also have immunomodulatory activity. For example, LL induces chemotaxis of neutrophils, monocytes, mast cells, and T cells.
LL levels are also noted to be dramatically lower in chronic ulcers than in wounds that undergo normal healing, which highlights the importance of this AMP in wound healing, in addition to innate immunity [ 19 ]. Finally, regenerating islet-derived protein 3A REG3A , an AMP present in the gut as well as the skin, promotes keratinocyte proliferation, suggesting a role for AMPs in wound healing as well as antimicrobial defense [ 20 ].
PRRs also recognize viral components, leading to transcription of antiviral interferon-stimulated genes ISGs. Recent discoveries have highlighted the importance of IL signaling in wound healing and ISG responses [ 23 ].
ISGs become strongly up-regulated in epidermal keratinocytes following stimulation with recombinant IL, and mice lacking the IL receptor have been found to have delayed wound healing. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common cause of bacterial skin infections. The mechanisms by which it evades eradication by the innate immune system are representative of the strategies employed by other microbes to counteract immune defenses.
For example, S. A second evasion strategy involves the release of membrane vesicles that contain factors that inactivate the complement system.
