Abstract
Allergic contact dermatitis is a common occupational disease that manifests as a cell-mediated hypersensitivity reaction following skin exposure to small reactive chemicals termed haptens. Haptens penetrate the stratum corneum and covalently modify proteins in the epidermis, inducing intracellular stress, which further leads to the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), such as uric acid, reactive oxygen species, hyaluronic acid fragments and extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These DAMPs are recognized by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in innate immune cells, namely dendritic cells (DCs), leading to their maturation and migration to the draining lymph nodes where they activate naïve T lymphocytes. Among all PRRs, several studies emphasize the role of NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome on the allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) sensitization phase. However, skin allergens-danger signals-NLRP3 inflammasome axis is yet to be completely elucidated. Therefore, in this review, we sought to discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying DAMPs release and NLRP3 inflammasome activation triggered by skin allergens. The elucidation of these key events might help to identify novel therapeutic strategies for ACD, as well as the development of nonanimal alternative methods for the identification and potency categorization of skin sensitizers.

Abstract
Dermatological research is a major beneficiary of the rapidly developing advances in lipid analytic technology and of bioinformatic tools which help to decipher and interpret the accumulating big lipid data. At its interface with the environment, the epidermis develops a blend of lipids that constitutes the epidermal lipid barrier, essential for the protection from water loss and entry of dangerous noxae. Apart from their structural role in the barrier, novel intra- and inter-cellular signaling functions of lipids and their oxidation products have been uncovered in most cutaneous cell types over the last decades, and the discovery rate has been boosted by the advent of high resolution and -throughput mass spectrometric techniques. Our understanding of epidermal development has benefited from studies on fetal surface lipids, which appear to signal for adaptation to desiccation post partum, and from studies on the dynamics of epidermal lipids during adjustment to the atmosphere in the first months of life. At birth, external insults begin to challenge the skin and its lipids, and recent years have yielded ample insights into the dynamics of lipid synthesis and -oxdiation after UV exposure, and upon contact with sensitizers and irritants. Psoriasis and atopic dermatitis are the most common chronic inflammatory skin diseases, affecting at least 3% and 7% of the global population, respectively. Consequently, novel (redox-) lipidomic techniques have been applied to study systemic and topical lipid abnormalities in patient cohorts. These studies have refined the knowledge on eicosanoid signaling in both diseases, and have identified novel biomarkers and potential disease mediators, such as lipid antigens recognized by psoriatic T cells, as well as ceramide species, which specifically correlate with atopic dermatitis severity. Both biomarkers have yielded novel mechanistic insights. Finally, the technological progress has enabled studies to be performed that have monitored the consequences of diet, lifestyle, therapy and cosmetic intervention on the skin lipidome, highlighting the translational potential of (redox-) lipidomics in dermatology.

Abstract
There are strong evidences that probiotics influence the immune status of the host, in a strain-specific manner, acting in the gastrointestinal tract. On the hypothesis that certain extracellular proteins and peptides from gut bacteria may mediate part of this immunomodulation and assuming they are able to diffuse through the mucus layer and interact with immune cells we have developed this work. Our study attempts to understand the immunomodulatory mechanisms of (i) Pext, the extracellular protein fraction of Lactobacillus acidophilus DSM20079T, (ii) HM14, a peptide encrypted in an extracellular glycoside hydrolase from Bifidobacterium longum NCIMB 8809 and (iii) Escherichia coli O111:B4 lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a well-known pro-inflammatory molecule, over human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). An untargeted LC-ESI-QTOF-MS metabolomics approach was applied to reveal intracellular changes in treated-PBMCs isolated from healthy donors. Differences in NADH arrest, NAD+ concentration reduction, as well as increases in palmitic acid and methanephrin were observed in HM14 and Pext treated-cells compared to those stimulated with LPS. This would support an anti-inflammatory molecular mechanism of action of such proteinaceous molecules. Moreover, this methodology has confirms the importance of metabolomics approaches to better understanding immune cell responses to gut bacterial-derived molecules.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-19 is a member of the IL-10 family of interleukins and is an immuno-modulatory cytokine produced by the main macrophages. The gastrointestinal tissues of IL-19 knockout mice show exacerbated experimental colitis mediated by the innate immune system and T cells. There is an increasing focus on the interaction and relationship of IL-19 with the function of T cells. Contact hypersensitivity (CHS) is T cell-mediated cutaneous inflammation. Therefore, we asked whether IL-19 causes CHS. We investigated the immunological role of IL-19 in CHS induced by 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene as a hapten. IL-19 was highly expressed in skin exposed to the hapten, and ear swelling was increased in IL-19 knockout mice. The exacerbation of the CHS response in IL-19 knockout mice correlated with increased levels of IL-17 and IL-6, but no alterations were noted in the production of interferon (IFN)γ and IL-4 in the T cells of the lymph nodes. In addition to the effect on T cell response, IL-19 knockout mice increased production of inflammatory cytokines. These results show that IL-19 suppressed hapten-dependent skin inflammation in the elicitation phase of CHS.

A multi-omics analysis reveals metabolic reprogramming in THP-1 cells upon treatment with the contact allergen DNCB. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2017; 340:21-29.

Abstract
Dendritic cell (DC) activation by contact allergens is one of the key steps in the development of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). Recent evidence suggests that metabolic reprogramming is a prerequisite for the activation of DCs, macrophages and monocytes. Therefore, we used an integrated approach by combining proteomics and metabolomics to investigate the metabolism of human THP-1 cells in response to the strong contact allergen, 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB). Cells were treated with 5, 10 and 20μM DNCB for 4, 8, and 24h, respectively. Using a targeted metabolomics approach, we quantified levels of 188 endogenous metabolites, among them phospholipids, acylcarnitines, amino acids and hexoses. In addition, proteomic changes were analyzed using an untargeted quantitative approach based on stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC). We detected several alterations in the metabolome and consistently in the proteome indicating metabolic reprogramming of THP-1 cells by DNCB. In particular, we found an increase in phospholipids that was accompanied by an up-regulation of fatty acid synthase (FAS), a key enzyme in lipid synthesis.

Abstract
Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a widespread hypersensitivity reaction of the skin. The cellular mechanisms underlying its development are complex and involve close interaction of different cell types of the immune system. It is this very complexity which has long prevented straightforward replacement of the corresponding regulatory in vivo tests. Recent efforts have already resulted in the development of several in vitro testing alternatives that address key steps of ACD. Yet identification of suitable biomarkers is still a subject of intense research. Search strategies for the latter encompass transcriptomics, proteomics as well as metabolomics approaches. The scope of this review shall be the application and use of proteomics in the context of ACD. This includes highlighting relevant aspects of the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying ACD, the exploitation of these mechanisms for testing and biomarkers (e.g., in the context of the OECD's adverse outcome pathway initiative) as well as an outlook on emerging proteome targets, for example during the allergen-induced activation of dendritic cells (DCs).
