Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disease in which the salivary glands (SGs) and the lacrimal glands (LGs) are affected by lymphocytic infiltration and inflammation. It has been reported that interferon-α (IFN-α) released by plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) contribute to the pathology of SS, and ART has been shown to effectively ameliorates SS. Despite the current research endeavors, the mechanism of how ART works in the treatment of SS remains to be fully elucidated. Whether ART can treat SS by inhibiting IFN-α remains unclear. This hypothesis was tested both in vivo and in vitro settings during the study. The SS model mice, which were treated with ART, showed amelioration in symptoms related to dryness. RNA-seq analysis revealed strong anti-IFN-α signaling response upon ART treatment. Additional in vitro studies provided further confirmation that the application of ART inhibits the MyD88 protein expression and the nuclear translocation of IRF7. This suggests that the intervention of ART in the TLR-MyD88-IRF7 pathway plays a role in the therapeutic approach for SS. In summary, this study highlighted the therapeutic potential of ART in SS and ART inhibited the IFN-α signaling in pDCs via the TLR-MyD88-IRF7 pathway.
