摘要
Although subtle barrier defects may facilitate allergen penetration, thereby enabling allergic sensitization, the relationship between sweating disturbance and skin barrier function is unknown. However, many studies on contact hypersensitivity in mice examined ear skin, which does not sweat, instead of the footpad, where sweating is uniquely present. Here, we assessed whether sweat suppression in the footpad before hapten application provoked a skin barrier abnormality and reduced inflammatory thresholds to topical haptens. Mice without any genetic skin barrier dysfunction displayed markedly reduced inflammatory thresholds to haptens under transient sweat suppression before hapten application. Epicutaneously applied haptens penetrated the skin more robustly in the presence of sweat suppression compared to its absence, although this increase was abolished by exposure to high-humidity conditions. These mice displayed a subtle atopic dermatitis-like inflammation mediated by type 2 response-dominant inflammation and increased IgE responses, mimicking some events occurring in non-lesional atopic dermatitis skin in humans and in murine models. These lesions were dramatically attenuated by exposure to high-humidity conditions. In our model, hapten sensitization does not require mechanical injury, explaining why sensitization occurs through non-lesional atopic dermatitis skin. Awareness of the importance of preserving sweating responses is essential to prevent occupational contact dermatitis and atopic dermatitis.
