Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is a widely utilized diuretic for the treatment of hypertension. The photosensitivity of HCTZ has been recognized for six decades, with UVA being considered the primary culprit. However, the precise molecular mechanism of HCTZ sensitizing skin to UV radiation remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that HCTZ exacerbates UVB-induced photosensitivity in normal skin by disrupting the DNA damage response, a crucial network responsible for maintaining epidermal homeostasis. Here, we found that HCTZ aggravates UVB-induced mouse skin damage. Through transcriptomic and proteomic profiling, we have found that the cell cycle and p53 signaling pathway may contribute to the photosensitivity caused by HCTZ. In keratinocytes, HCTZ promotes the transition from G1 to S phase and inhibits the p53 signaling pathway after exposure to UV radiation. We have found that HCTZ enhances the accumulation of DNA damage induced by UVB and impairs nucleotide excision repair (NER), which is responsible for repairing UVB-induced DNA lesions, by inhibiting the expression of NER-related genes and shortening the duration of G1 phase. Furthermore, pharmacologically inducing G1 arrest eliminates HCTZ-induced accumulation of damaged DNA. These findings unveil an unknown mechanism through which HCTZ impairs NER and interferes with UVB-induced cell cycle arrest, ultimately leading to improper response towards DNA damage and increased skin sensitivity.
