Popis: | EGFR inhibitors used in oncology therapy modify the keratinocyte differentiation processes, impairing proper skin barrier formation and leading to cutaneous adverse drug reactions. To uncover the molecular signatures associated with cutaneous adverse drug reactions, we applied phosphoproteomic and transcriptomic assays on reconstructed human epidermis tissues exposed to a therapeutically relevant concentration of afatinib, a second-generation EGFR inhibitor. After drug exposure, we observed activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B pathway associated with an increased expression of gene families involved in keratinocyte differentiation, senescence, oxidative stress, and alterations in the epidermal immune-related markers. Furthermore, our results show that afatinib may interfere with vitamin D3 metabolism, acting via CYP27A1 and CYP24A1 to regulate calcium concentration through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B pathway. Consequently, basal layer keratinocytes switch from a pro-proliferating to a prodifferentiative program, characterized by upregulation of biomarkers associated with increased keratinization, cornification, T helper type 2 response, and decreased innate immunity. Such effects may increase skin susceptibility to cutaneous penetration of irritants and pathogens. Taken together, these findings demonstrate a molecular mechanism of EGFR inhibitor–induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions. |
