- Abstract
- UV light is absorbed in the epidermis and induces sunburn cell formation. It has been reported that HSP70 increases the UVB resistance of cell lines by in vitro experiments using various cell lines. In this study, hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse was used in order to study the role of HSP70 after UVB irradiation, Western blotting showed a decreased level of HSP70 in hsp 70.1(-/-) KO mouse compared with wild type FVB mouse. Six h after UVB irradiation, there were no significant histologic differences between the hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse and the wild type FVB mouse. A similar degree of nuclear swelling was observed. However. there were significant differences at 12 and 24 h after UVB irradiation. After 12 h. a few apoptotic cells were observed in the wild type mouse, but a large number of cells were apoptotic in the hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse. After 24 h. the epidermis of the wild type FVB mouse was relatively intact, but almost the entire epidermis was necrotic in the hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse. These results showed that epidermal injury of hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse was much more severe than that of wild type mouse although initial changes are similar in both species of mice. These results suggest that susceptibility of hsp70.1(-/-) KO mouse to UVB irradiation may originate from a defect in the repair mechanism. This HSP deficient model may be useful in studies of the effects of tissue injury that relate to the impaired tissue repair mechanisms. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
