Résumé
We have previously demonstrated that treatment of the human keratinocyte cell line NCTC 2544 with a UVB dose equivalent to 1h exposure (100 mJ/cm2) results in a significant increase of IL-8 production. In this study, we use specific inhibitors to investigate the role of both PKA- and PKC-mediated pathways in the regulation of UVB-induced IL-8 expression in NCTC 2544 cell line. We show here that the treatment of irradiated human keratinocytes with PKA inhibitors [H89 and PKA inhibitor (PKAi)] induced a significant decrease of IL-8 production at both mRNA and protein levels. However, the regulation of IL-8 production seems to be mediated via a cAMP-independent PKA pathway, since drugs known to enhance cAMP concentrations [PGE2, cholera toxin and dibutyryl cAMP] decrease IL-8 production in irradiated cells by down-regulating NF-kappa B activation in response to UVB radiation. Using PMA (a potent pharmacological activator of PKC) and calphostin C (a specific PKC inhibitor), we demonstrated an up-regulation of IL-8 in NCTC 2544 cells and a down-regulation of the cytokine in UVB-irradiated cells, respectively. We also observed that in our experimental conditions, staurosporine, an inhibitor of both PKC and PMA-stimulated cellular responses, does not involve PKC inhibition in irradiated cells and significantly decreased NF-kappa B activity in response to UVB radiation. Finally, we concluded that a cAMP-independent PKA activation and a PKC-associated pathway are probably involved in the regulation of UVB-induced IL-8 synthesis in human keratinocytes.
