Abstract | Vesicants such as arsenicals and mustards produce highly painful cutaneous inflammatory and blistering responses, hence developed as chemical weapons during World War I/II. Here, using lewisite and sulfur mustard surrogates, namely phenylarsine oxide (PAO) and 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES), respectively, we defined a common underlying mechanism of toxic action by these two distinct classes of vesicants. Murine skin exposure to these chemicals causes tissue destruction characterized by increase in skin bifold thickness, Draize score, infiltration of inflammatory cells, and apoptosis of epidermal and dermal cells. RNA sequencing analysis identified ∼346 inflammatory genes that were commonly altered by both PAO and CEES, along with the identification of cytokine signaling activation as the top canonical pathway. Activation of several proinflammatory genes and pathways is associated with phosphorylation-dependent activation of heat shock protein 90 |
