Pituitary adenylate cyclase‐activating polypeptide inhibits cutaneous immune function

Abstract: Epidermal nerves are closely associated with Langerhans cells (LC) and may be able to release factors, such as calcitonin gene-related peptide and epinephrine, that affect LC function. LC and the LC-like cell line XS106 express mRNA for the pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) receptors VPAC1 and VPAC2. We examined whether PACAP regulates cutaneous immunity. Intradermal administration of PACAP prior to application of a contact sensitizer at the injected site inhibited the induction of con… Show more

“…These findings were recently confirmed in a study in which PACAP inhibited the induction of contact hypersensitivity by reducing murine LC antigen-presenting cell (primary and XS106 cell line) properties (441). Additionally, PACAP inhibits the LPS/granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-induced stimulation of IL-1␤ and augments IL-10, presumably by modulation of cytokine production (442). VIP and PACAP both inhibit the LPS-stimulated production of TNF-␣ via VPAC1R and activation of the adenylate cyclase system in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a protective role for VIP and PACAP regulating the release of TNF-␣ during inflammation (194,200).…”

“…In the epidermis, ␤ 2 adrenoreceptors are expressed by both LC and keratinocytes (36), raising the possibility that activation of these receptors may represent one mechanism for the rapid mobilization of cutaneous IL-10. In contrast, neuropeptides, such as pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide and calcitonin gene-related peptide, inhibit cutaneous immune responses and are associated with the ability to enhance IL-10 production (37,38). In addition, mediators such as PGE 2 , histamine, and increased cAMP all favor IL-10 production and Th2 responses (4,5,39).…”

“…Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that these nerves are capable of releasing peptides that regulate LC function (1). Several neuropeptides, including calcitonin gene-related peptide, ␣-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), have been shown to inhibit LC immune function (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6). In vivo, both calcitonin gene-related peptide and PACAP inhibited the induction of contact hypersensitivity and elicitation of delayedtype hypersensitivity (DTH) (1,3,6).…”
