Narrow-band ultraviolet B radiation (NB-UVB) therapy offers a well-established treatment modality for psoriasis. However, despite the common use of this form of treatment, the mechanism of action of NB-UVB is not well understood. We studied a group of 14 patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis treated with carefully titrated and monitored NB-UVB for 6 weeks. Lesional plaques were classified as normalized (n=8) or non-responsive (n=6) based on their histological improvement and normalization. We characterized lesional myeloid dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells and their inflammatory mediators using immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR. NB-UVB suppressed multiple parameters of the IL-23/IL-17 pathway in normalized plaques, but not in non-responsive plaques. NB-UVB decreased numbers of CD11c+ DCs, specifically CD1c−CD11c+ “inflammatory” DCs, and their products, IL-20, iNOS, IL-12/23p40 and IL-23p19. Furthermore, effective NB-UVB suppressed IL-17 and IL-22 mRNA, which strongly correlated with lesion resolution. Therefore, in addition to its known role in suppressing IFN-γ production, NB-UVB radiation therapy can also target the IL-17 pathway to resolve psoriatic inflammation.
