Aquaporins are one of the critical factors in the disruption of the skin barrier in inflammatory skin diseases

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    AQPs are expressed in many different cell types of the skin and contribute to several of the skin`s key functions including hydration, formation of water-permeability barrier, and immune_responses. The immune barrier consists of skin-resident immune cells populating the epidermis, such as keratinocytes, epidermal Langerhans cells, and the dermis, such as dendritic cells and resident T_cells. LCs and dDCs uptake antigen and subsequently migrate to regional draining lymph nodes, where they activate naive T_cells by initiating the immune_response. AQP9 was therefore suggested to be required for the development of sensitization during cutaneous . . .
