Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the main site of protein synthesis, transport, and modification. Its abnormal status has now emerged as an established cause of many pathological processes, such as tumors and autoimmune diseases. Recent studies also demonstrated that the defective functions of ER may lead to pigmentary diseases. Vitiligo is a depigmenting ailment skin disorder whose pathogenesis is now found to be associated with ER. However, the detailed mechanism is still unclear. In this review, we try to link the association between ER with its inter- and intra-organellar interactions in vitiligo pathogenesis and focus on the function, mechanism, and clinical potential of ER with vitiligo. Expand ER is found in melanocytes of vitiligo and ER stress (ERS) might be a bridge between oxidative stress and innate and adaptive immunity. Meanwhile, the tight association between ER and mitochondria or melanosomes in organelles levels, as well as genes and cytokines, is the new paradigm in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. This undoubtedly adds a new aspect to the understanding of vitiligo, facilitating the design of targeted therapies for vitiligo.

Abstract
Initiating and maintaining optimal immune responses requires high levels of protein synthesis, folding, modification and trafficking in leukocytes, which are processes orchestrated by the endoplasmic reticulum. Importantly, diverse extracellular and intracellular conditions can compromise the protein-handling capacity of this organelle, inducing a state of 'endoplasmic reticulum stress' that activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). Emerging evidence shows that physiological or pathological activation of the UPR can have effects on immune cell survival, metabolism, function and fate. In this Review, we discuss the canonical role of the adaptive UPR in immune cells and how dysregulation of this pathway in leukocytes contributes to diverse pathologies such as cancer, autoimmunity and metabolic disorders. Furthermore, we provide an overview as to how pharmacological approaches that modulate the UPR could be harnessed to control or activate immune cell function in disease.

Association of rs4711998 of IL-17A, rs2275913 of IL-17A and rs763780 IL-17F gene polymorphisms with non-segmental vitiligo in a Mexican population. Arch Dermatol Res 2023; 315:447-454. [PMID: 35960353 DOI: 10.1007/s00403-022-02382-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Vitiligo is the most common depigmenting disease characterized by achromic macules due to selective loss of melanocytes. The pathogenesis remains poorly elucidated, and multiple hypotheses exist regarding its pathogenesis. Evidence suggests that stress on melanocytes can result in activation of the immune system, and involvement of both activated cluster of differentiation (CD8+) cytotoxic and CD4+ T cells in the dysfunction, depigmentation, and apoptosis of melanocytes. Recent studies show that the interleukin 17 (IL-17) axis plays a central role in the pathogenesis of the disease. IL-17 is an important regulatory effector cytokine in this pathway. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of IL-17A rs4711998 (-832A/G), IL-17A rs2275913 (-197G/A), and IL-17F rs763780 (7488A/G) with vitiligo in a Northeastern Mexican population. This was a case-control study and included 116 patients with vitiligo and 116 control subjects. Genotype characterization of IL-17A rs4711998 (-832A/G), IL-17A rs2275913 (-197G/A), and IL-17F rs763780 (7488A/G) was performed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. A p ≤ 0.05 was considered significant. It was observed that the combination of the genotypes GG/GA for IL-17F rs763780 (7488A/G) was associated with an increased risk for the development of vitiligo (OR 2.0943, 95% Cl 1.2375-3.5445, p = 0.0056). Regarding IL-17A rs4711998 (-832A/G) and IL-17A rs2275913 (-197G/A) genotyping, no association with vitiligo development was found. In conclusion, the SNP rs763780 in the IL-17F gene appears to be a risk factor for vitiligo development in this Mexican population and it may be useful in future studies, especially for the development of new therapies.

Abstract
Vitiligo is a chronic depigmenting disorder of the skin and mucosa caused by the destruction of epidermal melanocytes. Although the exact mechanism has not been elucidated, studies have shown that oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. High mobility group box protein B1 (HMGB1) is a major nonhistone protein and an extracellular proinflammatory or chemotactic molecule that is actively secreted or passively released by necrotic cells. Recent data showed that HMGB1 is overexpressed in both blood and lesional specimens from vitiligo patients. Moreover, oxidative stress triggers the release of HMGB1 from keratinocytes and melanocytes, indicating that HMGB1 may participate in the pathological process of vitiligo. Overall, this review mainly focuses on the role of HMGB1 in the potential mechanisms underlying vitiligo depigmentation under oxidative stress. In this review, we hope to provide new insights into vitiligo pathogenesis and treatment strategies.
