Microbial products, including lipopolysaccharides, may be involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory skin diseases. We examined the effect of hirsutenoxime on the Toll-like receptor 4-mediated activation of Akt and nuclear factor (NF)-κB in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated keratinocytes. Hirsutenoxime, a cell signaling Akt inhibitor, and Bay 11-7085, an inhibitor of NF-κB activation, attenuated the lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of Toll-like receptor 4, activation of NF-κB and Akt, and the production of chemokines and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species. Hirsutenoxime may reduce the Toll-like receptor 4 expression-mediated NF-κB activation, which is regulated by the Akt pathway in keratinocytes exposed to lipopolysaccharides. This effect may reduce the skin inflammatory response. |
