(b) Clinical presentation and histopathologies in wild-type, Alox5–/–, and Ltb4r1–/– mice, and (c) quantification of Ly-6G+ and Siglec-F+ cells in lesional skin of WT mice or corresponding skin sites of Alox5–/– and Ltb4r1–/– mice on day 9. Arrows indicate deposition of IgG or C3. (d) Effect of zileuton on antibody transfer EBA in WT mice. Stars indicate inflammatory infiltrates; arrows indicate subepidermal clefts. In a and d, n = 3–5 mice/group. In a, ∗∗∗P < wild-type versus Alox5–/– or Ltbr4r1–/– mice; in d, ∗∗P < 0.01, ∗∗∗P < Results in c were pooled from three independent experiments (n = –14 mice/group); ∗P < 0.05 compared with WT. Scale bar in H&E, IgG, and C3 stainings = 100 μm; scale bar in Ly-6G and Siglec-F stainings = 50 μm. ABSA, affected body surface area; EBA, epidermolysis bullous acquisita; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; Pos., positive; WT, wild type.

Neutrophils but not eosinophils are required for antibody transfer EBA. (a) Clinical course in anti-Ly-6G- or isotype control-treated WT mice (n = 3 mice/group), and (b) histopathologies of lesional skin of this experiment. (d) Clinical course of antibody transfer EBA in WT versus ΔdblGATA mice (n = 4 mice/group). (e) Comparison of WT and ΔdblGATA mice. All histopathologies were taken from lesional skin on day 12. Stars indicate inflammatory infiltrates; arrows indicate subepidermal clefts. In a and d, ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < (c, f) Results in were pooled from two independent experiments (n = 5–7 mice/group). ∗P < 0.05; ∗∗P < Scale bar in H&E stainings = 100 μm; scale bar in Ly-6G and Siglec-F stainings = 50 μm. ABSA, affected body surface area; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; n.s., not significant; Pos., positive; WT, wild type.

Lipid mediator profile in emerging pemphigoid disease-like skin inflammation. (a) Clinical presentation and histopathologies of anti-Col7-injected ears. The quantification of Ly-6G+ and Siglec-F+ cell infiltration was pooled from three independent experiments (n = 6–11 mice/group) and analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn multiple comparison test. ∗∗P < 0.01, ∗∗∗P < compared with 0 hours. Stars indicate inflammatory infiltrates; arrows indicate subepidermal clefts. Scale bar in H&E stainings = 100 μm; scale bar in Ly-6G and Siglec-F stainings = 50 μm. (b) Heat map of lipid mediator expression in anti-Col7– versus PBS-treated skin. (c) Time kinetics of LTB4 and 5-HETE levels in anti-Col7– versus PBS-treated skin. Data in b and c were pooled from three independent experiments (n = 5–10 mice/group/time point). In b, groups were compared by two-way analysis of variance with Benjamini-Hochberg correction; (∗P < 0.05, ∗∗P < 0.01) and in c, by two-way analysis of variance with Bonferroni post hoc test (∗P < 0.05, ∗∗P < 0.01). H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; hrs, hours; LTB4, leukotriene B4; PBS, phosphate buffered saline; PQN, probablistic quotient normalization.

5-LO and BLT1 expression solely on hematopoietic cells drive antibody transfer EBA. (a) Course of disease, (b) clinical presentation and histopathologies, and (c) quantification of Ly-6G+ cell infiltration in lesional skin on day 9 in bone marrow chimera between WT and Alox5–/– mice in the EBA transfer model. (d) Course of disease, (e) clinical presentation and histopathologies, and (f) quantification of Ly-6G+ cell infiltration in lesional skin in bone marrow chimera between WT and Ltb4r1–/– mice in the EBA transfer model on day 9.

Adoptive transfer of neutrophils into the skin precipitates pemphigoid disease-like skin lesions in anti-Col7–treated Ltb4r1–/– mice. (a) Number of mice per group displaying skin lesions by day 9 after adoptive transfer of WT or Ltb4r1–/– neutrophils (PMNs) subcutaneously. Analysis by F test did not find statistically significant differences between WT and Ltb4r1–/– neutrophils in their general capability to precipitate disease. Results were pooled from three independent experiments. (b) Clinical presentation and histopathology on day 9 of the experiment. Arrows indicate inflammatory skin lesions. (c) Direct immunofluorescence for IgG (indicated by arrows), Ly-6G, and Siglec-F and quantification of the latter two pooled from three independent experiments (n = 10–11 mice/group), statistically analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test. Scale bar in H&E and IgG stainings = 100 μm; scale bar in Ly-6G and Siglec-F stainings = 50 μm. H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; PMN, Ltb4r1–/– neutrophil; Pos., positive; WT, wild type.
