The aryl hydrocarbon receptor: an environmental sensor integrating immune responses in health and disease.

TL;DR: The role of AHR in autoimmune and neoplastic diseases of the central nervous system, with a special focus on the gut immune system, the gut–brain axis and the therapeutic potential of targeting A HR in neurological disorders are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor as a target of environmental stressors - Implications for pollution mediated stress and inflammatory responses.

TL;DR: Findings showing the critical role that the AHR plays in mediating effects of environmental pollutants and stressors, which pose a risk of impacting the environment and human health are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atopic dermatitis: an expanding therapeutic pipeline for a complex disease.

TL;DR: The potential for a precision medicine approach to enable prevention and more effective long-term control of atopic dermatitis (AD) has been highlighted in this paper, where a review of various strategies and novel agents currently being investigated for AD is presented.

Regulation of Filaggrin, Loricrin, and Involucrin by IL-4, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-22, AHR, and NRF2: Pathogenic Implications in Atopic Dermatitis

TL;DR: The mechanisms by which FLG, LOR, and IVL expression is regulated by IL-4, IL-13,IL-22, and IL-17A are focused on and how AHR and NRF2 dual activators exert their beneficial effects in the treatment of AD is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AHR) in Immune and Inflammatory Diseases.

TL;DR: It is found that SNPs that are outside of nuclear receptor binding sites (i.e., outside of AHR response elements (AHREs) may contribute to AHR-dependent gene regulation in a SNP- and ligand-dependent manner.

Interleukin-22, a T H 17 cytokine, mediates IL-23-induced dermal inflammation and acanthosis

TL;DR: The results suggest that TH17 cells, through the production of both IL-22 and IL-17, might have essential functions in host defence and in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor by structurally diverse exogenous and endogenous chemicals.

TL;DR: Evidence for the structural promiscuity of AhR ligand binding is described and the current state of knowledge with regards to the activation of the AhR signaling pathway by naturally occurring exogenous and endogenous ligands is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of T reg and T H 17 cell differentiation by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor

TL;DR: The identification of the ligand-activated transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) as a regulator of Treg and TH17 cell differentiation in mice is reported, constituting a unique target for therapeutic immunomodulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor links TH17-cell-mediated autoimmunity to environmental toxins.

TL;DR: It is shown that in the CD4+ T-cell lineage of mice AHR expression is restricted to the TH17 cell subset and its ligation results in the production of the TH16 cytokine interleukin (IL)-22, and AHR ligands may represent co-factors in the development of autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunology of Psoriasis

TL;DR: The genetic background of psoriasis and its relationship to immune function, specifically genetic mutations, key PSORS loci, single nucleotide polymorphisms, and the skin transcriptome are discussed.
