In the nervous system, influx of calcium and chloride ions into neurons regulates the signaling system by excitation and inhibition, respectively. In this study, we demonstrated the effects of the ion influx into epidermal keratinocytes in the permeability barrier repair process of the skin after damage. Topical application of the neurotransmitters glutamate and nicotine, which activate the calcium channel in neurons, delayed the barrier repair after tape stripping. In contrast, the neurotransmitters GABA and glycine, which activate the chloride channel in neurons, accelerated barrier repair. Topical application of the calcium ionophore ionomycin delayed barrier recovery and chloride ionophore 1 accelerated barrier repair after barrier disruption by tape stripping and acetone treatment. Ionomycin increased the intracellular calcium concentration in cultured keratinocytes whereas the chloride ionophore 1 increased the intracellular chloride ion concentration. In vivo light microscopy and electron microscopy observation showed acceleration of the exocytosis of lipid-containing lamellar bodies by the chloride ionophore and delay of the exocytosis by the calcium ionophore. These results suggest that, like the nervous system, influx of calcium and chloride ions into epidermal keratinocytes through ionotropic receptors plays a crucial role in cutaneous barrier homeostasis.
