Objective: As a common chronic inflammatory skin disease, psoriasis seriously affects the physical health and psychological well-being of patients. Various clinical treatments for psoriasis have their own drawbacks, so it is important to find effective and safe drugs. Rehmannioside A (ReA) has anti-inflammatory properties and is the main active ingredient in Fuzhengzhiyanghefuzhiyang decoction (FZHFZY), an herbal compound for the treatment of psoriasis. But no studies have been conducted to determine whether ReA alone can treat psoriasis. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate the effect of ReA in the treatment of psoriasis and its potential mechanism of action. Methods: HaCaT cells were treated with ReA and IL-17A alone for 24 h and 48 h, and the most effective concentrations of ReA and interleukin (IL)-17A were found at 25 µg/mL and 100 ng/mL, respectively. A psoriasis cell model was constructed by stimulating HaCaT cells with IL-17A, followed by intervention with ReA. Cell viability and cell cycle distribution were measured by MTT assay and flow cytometry. The expression levels of keratin family members and chemokines were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and key proteins of TRAF6/MAPK signaling pathway by Western blot. Results: ReA weaken cell viability, down-regulate the expression of keratin family members (KRT6 and KRT17), restore cell cycle distribution to normal distribution, inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and IL-1ß) and lower the expression of chemokines (S100A7, S100A9 and CXCL2) by interfering with the interaction between HaCaT cells and IL-17A. Thus, it exerts an anti-psoriatic effect by reducing the inflammatory response and inhibiting abnormal proliferation of HaCaT cells. Mechanistically, ReA inhibited the TRAF6/MAPK signaling pathway activated by IL-17A stimulation in HaCaT cells. Conclusion: ReA has in vitro anti-psoriatic effects and may be a new therapeutic agent for psoriasis.
