Depression of basal cell proliferating activity and subsequent induction of basal cell apoptosis in the epidermis and infiltration of inflammatory cells including mast cells in the dermis were observed in the dorsal skin of hypotrichotic WBN/ILA-Ht rats following the topical application of T-2 toxin in our previous study (ALBARENQUE et al. 1999). In the present study, kinetics of TGF-beta 1 mRNA was investigated using the same experimental system. The level of TGF-beta 1 mRNA of the whole skin tissue measured by competitive RT-PCR method showed a slight elevation from 6 to 12 hours after treatment (HAT) and reached the significantly higher level at 24HAT compared with the control skin. The increase in signals of TGF-beta 1 mRNA detected by in situ hybridization method started at 3HAT in the epidermis and progressed thereafter both in the epidermis and in the dermis. These results suggest that the elevated level of TGF-beta 1 mRNA may have a close relation to the induction of epidermal basal cell apoptosis as well as to the intradermal infiltration of mast cells and fibroblasts following the topical application of T-2 toxin.
