Interleukin-22 (IL-22) is one of the key mediators of keratinocyte alterations in psoriasis. IL-22 inhibits keratinocyte differentiation and induces the migration of human keratinocytes. Grb2-associated binder 1 (Gab1) has been shown to mediate epidermal growth factor-induced epidermal growth and differentiation via interaction with the Src homology-2-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase (Shp2). In this investigation, we explore the role of Gab1 and Gab2 in IL-22-mediated keratinocyte activities. We show that both Gab1 and Gab2 were tyrosine phosphorylated in IL-22-stimulated HaCaT cells and human primary epidermal keratinocytes and contributed to the activation of Extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 (Erk1/2) through interaction with Shp2. We further demonstrate that HaCaT cells infected with adenoviruses expressing Shp2-binding-defective Gab1/2 mutants exhibited decreased cell proliferation and migration, as well as increased differentiation. Moreover, similar results were observed in HaCaT cells infected with adenovirus-based small interfering RNAs targeting Gab1 and/or Gab2. Altogether, these data underscore the critical roles of Gab1 and Gab2 in IL-22-mediated HaCaT cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation.
