Staphylococcus aureus exacerbates dermal IL-33/ILC2 axis activation through evoking RIPK3/MLKL-mediated necroptosis of dry skin.

ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a persistent skin disease typified by symptoms of dry skin and recurrent eczema. Patients with AD are at heightened risk for Staphylococcus aureus infection. Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are mainly activated by epithelial cell-derived cytokines IL-33 and involved in the pathogenesis of AD. However, little is known about the effect of skin delipidization on the epithelial cell-derived cytokines and dermal ILC2s in AD. In our study, we investigated the mechanism by which S. aureus infection modulates and exacerbates the pathogenesis of dry skin, leading to type 2 inflammation in the context of innate immunity. In vivo, we found that S. aureus infection aggravated delipidization-induced dermal IL-33 release and dermal ILC2 accumulation, which exacerbated ski
