Effect of S100A8 and S100A9 on expressions of cytokine and skin barrier protein in human keratinocytes

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin disorder caused by immunological dysregulation and genetic factors. Whether the expression levels of cytokine and skin barrier protein were altered by S100 calcium binding protein A8 (S100A8) and S100A9 in human keratinocytic HaCaT cells was examined in the present study. Alterations of cytokine expression were examined by ELISA following treatment with S100A8/9 and various signal protein‑specific...
