Chronic contact hypersensitivity (CH) models induced by repeated hapten exposure exhibit chronic dermatitis and immunological abnormalities resembling atopic dermatitis. To assess the contribution of endothelial selectins (P- and E-selectins) to cutaneous chronic inflammation, chronic CH responses were assessed in mice lacking P- or E-selectin. Elicitation with oxazolone on the ears of P-selectin(-/-) mice 7 days after the sensitization induced a typical delayed-type hypersensitivity response similar to that found in wild-type mice. By contrast, a significant increase in ear swelling was observed in E-selectin(-/-) mice 36 to 48 hours after first elicitation. E-selectin(-/-) mice showed augmented P-selectin up-regulation, and administration of anti-P-selectin monoclonal antibody significantly inhibited the enhanced ear response, suggesting that the enhanced ear-swelling response in E-selectin(-/-) mice resulted from compensatory increase in P-selectin expression. In the late phase of chronic CH, acceleration of ear swelling was significantly reduced in both E- and P-selectin(-/-) mice relative to wild-type littermates. Thus, the loss of P- or E-selectin suppressed inflammatory responses during the chronic phase of the chronic models, whereas early-phase inflammatory responses were exacerbated by E-selectin blockade. Collectively, P- and E-selectins cooperatively regulate CH response, although their roles may be different depending on the phase of the reaction.
