Abstract Background: Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory cutaneous disease. 5-Aminolaevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) is a novel and effective therapy for severe acne vulgaris. However, the specific mechanism of ALA-PDT for acne still remain unclear. Here, we investigate the possible mechanism of intense inflammatory response of ALA-PDT for acne vulgaris. Results: It appeared that ALA-PDT suppresses proliferation and lipid secretion of primary human sebocytes. And ALA-PDT could up-regulate the expression of CXCL8 in vivo and in vitro, amplifying inflammatory response by recruiting T cells, B cells, neutrophils and macrophages. We also found that ALA-PDT elevated the expression of CXCL8 via p38 pathway. SB203580, a p38 pathway inhibitor, decreased the expression of CXCL8 after ALA-PDT in sebocytes. Conclusion: ALA-PDT amplifies intense inflammatory response in the treatment of acne vulgaris via CXCL8. Our data deciphers the mechanism of intense inflammatory response after ALA-PDT for acne vulgaris.
