INTRODUCTION: Psoriasis, is a common, chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory, relapsing disease, which would benefit from reliable and human-relevant animal models to test drugs pre-clinically and to understand their mechanism of action. Because of its ease of use, convenience and low cost, the imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like model is widely utilized; however, it is not known whether all mouse strains are equivalent and if the hairless mouse is appropriate, so that the imiquimod model can be further optimized.
METHODS: Under similar experimental conditions, common mouse strains (BALB/c, C57BL/6J, and ApoE) and a new hairless strain (ApoE/SKH-hr2) as well as several inducers (IMQ, IMQ + acetic acid (AcOH) topical and IMQ + AcOH systemic) were compared by clinical, histopathological, biophysical and locomotor activity assessments.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The BALB/c mice yielded an optimal psoriasis-like phenotype with IMQ + AcOH topical treatment, and the corresponding phenotypes for the other mouse strains were C57BL/6J moderate and ApoE mild. In contrast, the ApoE/SKH-hr2 mice, as a result of the absence of a Munro abscess in the histopathology analysis, left doubt about the psoriasis-like acquisition. Locomotor activity of BALB/c mice treated with IMQ, IMQ + AcOH topically and IMQ + AcOH systemically showed decreased distance and rearing coverage and increased immobility with all treatments. Hence, the BALB/c mouse strain appears to be an optimal psoriasis-like model when utilizing IMQ + AcOH topical application.
