D-Mannose Suppresses γδ T Cells and Alleviates Murine Psoriasis.

ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is a chronic skin disorder associated with multiple sequelae, such as psoriatic arthritis and cardiovascular diseases. Increasing evidence has shown that γδ T cells, as sources of IL-17A, play critical roles in psoriatic inflammations. However, there still lack effective ways to manipulate these pathogenic γδ T cells, which are less well studied than αβ T cells. The present study aims to characterize the phenotype of γδ T cells and evaluate the impact of D-mannose (a C-2 epimer of glucose) on γδ T cell-mediated psoriasis. We found that skin-draining LN γδ T cells underwent robust proliferation and acquired an IL-17-producing phenotype during psoriasis. The transcriptomic profiles of these psoriatic γδ T cells had elevated glycolytic signatures. Importantly, D-mannose treatment su
