摘要: 目的 探讨垂体腺苷酸环化酶激活肽(PACAP)及其受体(PACAP-R)在银屑病发病中的意义。方法 采用免疫组化的方法研究寻常性银屑病患者皮损及非皮损部位PACAP及PACAP-R的原位表达情况。结果 银屑病患者皮损部位PACAP及PACAP-R的原位表达均明显低于非皮损部位,表现为皮损组PACAP及PACAP-R的面积密度及平均吸光度值显著低于正常人对照组(均为P<0.01);与正常人相比,非皮损部位PACAP及PACAP-R的原位表达也呈下调表达,即非皮损组的PACAP及PACAP-R的面积密度及平均吸光度值明显低于正常人对照组(P<0.05)。结论 PACAP及PACAP-R在银屑病皮损中下调表达,提示PACAP可能与银屑病表皮细胞的过度增殖有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) and its receptor (PACAP-R) on the pathogenesis of psoriasis.Methods The expression of PACAP and PACAP-R in the skin from 10 normal controls,25 psoriatic lesions and non-lesional skins was measured by immunohistochemical technique.Results The expression of PACAP and PACAP-R was significantly lower in the psoriatic lesional skins than that of the non-lesional skins.The area density and mean absorbance of PACAP and PACAP-R in the lesional skins were significantly lower compared with those in the non-lesional skins (P<0.01).The area density and mean absorbance of PACAP and PACAP-R in the non-lesional skins were significantly lower compared with those in the normal controls (P<0.05).Conclusions The down-expression of PACAP and PACAP-R in psoriatic skin suggests that PACAP might be related to the hyperproliferation of psoriatic keratinocytes.
