Abstract

Summary Interleukin (IL)-23 and CD4+ T helper-17 (Th17) cells are thought to be critical in the development of psoriasis. Here, we report that IL-23 predominantly stimulated dermal γδT cells to produce IL-17 that led to disease progression. Dermal γδT cells constitutively expressed the IL-23 receptor (IL-23R), RORγt, and various chemokine receptors. IL-17 production from dermal γδT cells was independent of αβT cells. The epidermal hyperplasia and inflammation induced by IL-23 were significantly decreased in T cell receptor δ deficient (Tcrd−/−) and IL-17 receptor deficient (Il17ra−/−) mice but occurred normally in Tcra−/− mice. Imiquimod-induced skin pathology was also significantly decreased in Tcrd−/− mice. Perhaps further promoting disease progression, IL-23 stimulated dermal γδT cell expansion. In psoriasis patients, γδT cells were also greatly increased in affected skin and produced large amounts of IL-17. Thus, IL-23-responsive dermal γδ T cells are the major IL-17 producers in the skin and may represent a novel target for the treatment of psoriasis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
