Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) release from keratinocytes has been observed in various stress modelsin vitro, but studies demonstrating epidermal ATP releasein vivoare limited. To visualize extracellular ATP (eATP)in vivo, we developed enhanced green-emitting luciferase immobilized on agarose beads (Eluc-agarose). Subcutaneous injection of Eluc-agarose together with ATP into the dorsal skin of BALB/c mice following intraperitoneal luciferin injection produced detectable and measurable bioluminescence using anin vivoimaging system. Using Eluc-agarose, we demonstratedin vivothat bright bioluminescence was observed from 1 to 20 minutes after repeated tape stripping of murine skin. This bioluminescence was suppressed by the local administration of apyrase. Eluc-agarose bioluminescence was observed only in tape-stripped skin with transepidermal water loss (TEWL) between 100 and 140 g m2h−1, indicating a loss of bioluminescence with excessive tape stripping (TEWL>140 g m−2h−1). Histologically, tape-stripped skin with detectable eATP had a viable epidermis and a subepidermal neutrophil infiltrate, and administration of apyrase reduced the inflammatory infiltrate. Neither a viable epidermis nor an upper dermal neutrophil infiltrate was observed after excessive tape stripping. These results suggest that tape stripping prompts ATP release from viable keratinocytes, which facilitates inflammatory cell migration. Eluc-agarose may be useful in thein vivodetection of eATP in murine models of skin diseases.
