摘要

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder marked by immune dysregulation and oxidative stress. Current therapies, such as corticosteroids, have side effects, necessitating new treatments. This study investigates the therapeutic effects of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOP) on AD, specifically focusing on their role in modulating inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction. An AD-like model was induced in BALB/c mice, while HaCaT keratinocytes stimulated with TNF-α/IFN-γ served as an in vitro model. In mice, DOP significantly alleviated AD symptoms, reduced inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6) and oxidative stress markers (MDA, NO), and restored antioxidant enzyme levels (GSH, SOD, CAT). In HaCaT cells, DOP ameliorated mitochondrial dysfunction, evident by increased mitochondrial membrane potential, cellular ATP content, and normalized mitochondrial dynamics (restoring MFN1/MFN2 and reducing DRP1). Furthermore, DOP suppressed NF-κB activation both in vivo and in vitro. These findings suggest that DOP alleviates AD by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress while preserving mitochondrial homeostasis. The mechanism appears associated with NF-κB inhibition, though this link is correlational and requires further direct validation.
