Popis: IntroductionAtopic dermatitis (AD) is an allergic skin disease mediated by skin barrier impairment and IL-13-driven immune response. Activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) has shown promise in early clinical trials for AD; however, the mechanism by which AHR partially ameliorates AD is not well known.MethodsGene expression data from human biopsies were analyzed, and compared to gene expression from RNA-sequencing in our in-vitro HaCaT cell model system. Western blot, ELISA qRT-PCR were used to further explore the relationship between AHR and IL-13 signaling in HaCaT cells.ResultsThe AHR target gene CYP1A1 was decreased in lesional skin compared with healthy control skin (p = 4.30 × 10−9). Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) demonstrated increased AHR expression (p
