We examined the effect of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the expression of cyclooxygenases in cultured HaCaT keratinocytes and in human skin in vivo. UVB irradiation (10 and 50 mJ/cm2) and hydrogen peroxide (200 micromol/L) increased cyclooxygenase-2 mRNA expression in HaCaT keratinocytes. No clear expression of cyclooxygenase-1 mRNA was detected in either control or stimulated HaCaT cells. Genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, suppressed both the basal and stimulated expression of cyclooxygenase-2 in HaCaT cells. UVB-induced cyclooxygenase-2 mRNA expression was partly inhibited by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine and by H-7, a non-specific inhibitor of protein kinase C. Solar-simulated irradiation (40 mJ/cm2) was found to induce in vivo both cyclooxygenase-2 mRNA and protein expression in human skin, whereas the expression of cyclooxygenase-1 mRNA remained at the basal level. Our results show that cyclooxygenase-2 expression is induced by UV irradiation and suggest that tyrosine kinases and reactive oxygen intermediates are involved in this induction of cyclooxygenase-2.
