Galectin-8 Is Upregulated in Keratinocytes by IL-17A and Promotes Proliferation by Regulating Mitosis in Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that develops under the influence of IL-23/T helper 17 cell axis and characterized by intense inflammation prominent epidermal hyperplasia. In this study, we demonstrate galectin-8, β-galactoside‒binding lectin, upregulated in epidermis human psoriatic lesions as well mouse model psoriasis induced intradermal IL-23 injections IL-17A‒treated keratinocytes. We show keratinocyte proliferation less galectin-8‒knockout mice after treatment than wild-type mice. addition, galectin-8 levels keratinocytes are positively correlated with ability cells to proliferate transitioning from mitosis into G1 phase delayed HaCaT cell-cycle synchronization release. immunofluorescence staining immunoblotting presence within mitotic apparatus. reveal coimmunoprecipitation mass spectrometry analysis α-tubulin interacts during mitosis. Finally, absence pericentrin compactness lessened microtubule length shortened, demonstrated staining. conclude contributes hyperproliferation maintaining centrosome integrity through interacting α-tubulin. vulgaris thickened infiltration involved skin.
