結論:異常的皮膚脂質譜和屏障功能障礙與AD患者的金黃色葡萄球菌定植有關。這些影響歸因于金黃色葡萄球菌誘導的 IL-1β、TNF-α、IL-6 和 IL-33 在角質形成細胞模型中對 ELOVL 的抑制,并且在 MRSA 中比 MSSA 更突出。

Staphylococcus aureus causes aberrant epidermal lipid composition and skin barrier dysfunction
DOI: 10.1111/all.15640
Abstract:
Background: Staphylococcus (S) aureus colonization is known to cause skin barrier disruption in atopic dermatitis (AD) patients. However, it has not been studied how S. aureus induces aberrant epidermal lipid composition and skin barrier dysfunction.
Methods: Skin tape strips (STS) and swabs were obtained from 24 children with AD (6.0?±?4.4?years) and 16 healthy children (7.0?±?4.5?years). Lipidomic analysis of STS samples was performed by mass spectrometry. Skin levels of methicillin-sensitive and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MSSA and MRSA) were evaluated. The effects of MSSA and MRSA were evaluated in primary human keratinocytes (HEKs) and organotypic skin cultures.
Results: AD and organotypic skin colonized with MRSA significantly increased the proportion of lipid species with nonhydroxy fatty acid sphingosine ceramide with palmitic acid ([N-16:0 NS-CER], sphingomyelins [16:0–18:0 SM]), and lysophosphatidylcholines [16:0–18:0 LPC], but significantly reduced the proportion of corresponding very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) species (C22–28) compared to the skin without S. aureus colonization. Significantly increased transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was found in MRSA-colonized AD skin. S. aureus indirectly through interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-6, and IL-33 inhibited expression of fatty acid elongase enzymes (ELOVL3 and ELOVL4) in HEKs. ELOVL inhibition was more pronounced by MRSA and resulted in TEWL increase in organotypic skin.
Conclusion: Aberrant skin lipid profiles and barrier dysfunction are associated with S. aureus colonization in AD patients. These effects are attributed to the inhibition of ELOVLs by S. aureus-induced IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-33 seen in keratinocyte models and are more prominent in MRSA than MSSA.
