Description
Summary:Psoriasis is a debilitating inflammatory condition that affects physiological and psychological states of millions around the world. Conventional biologic and nonbiologic therapies are fraught with profound adverse side effect profiles, frequent injection requirements, suboptimal outcomes, and other detriments. An enhanced understanding of the role of cytokines in psoriasis, particularly interleukins 12, 17, and 23, has afforded improved therapeutic strategies. Herein, we described the role of cytokines in psoriasis as well as current and prospective therapeutic approaches to treat this debilitating disease.
