Exploring the Therapeutic Potential of Estrogen-Related Receptor γ Inverse Agonists in Atopic Dermatitis-like Lesions.

ABSTRACT: Estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ) has been reported to regulate various inflammation-related diseases. Herein, we attempted to evaluate the effects of DN200434 as a modulator for ERRγ in mice with atopic dermatitis (AD). Levels of mRNA and protein expression for ERRγ were evaluated in normal and DNCB-induced AD-diagnosed skin. The effects of DN200434 on the chemokines, inflammatory cytokines, and AKT/MAPK/NFκB pathway signaling were investigated in TNF-α/IFN-γ-treated HaCaT cells. DNCB-induced AD mice received DN200434 intraperitoneally for 10 days. Epidermal thickness at the dorsal aspect of the inflamed skin, spleen index, serum IgE levels, and proinflammatory cytokine levels in the skin lesions were measured. Histopathological evaluations, including assessments of epidermal hyperplasia
