Journal ArticleDOI
Psoriasis vulgaris: cutaneous lymphoid tissue supports T-cell activation and ‘Type 1’ inflammatory gene expression
TL;DR: An integrated view of disease pathogenesis is presented, taking into account immune biology, broad-scale genomic characterization and the response of psoriasis to immune-targeted therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current concepts in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis.
TL;DR: There is much evidence to support the concept that psoriasis is a type 1 autoimmune disease, primarily mediated by interferon gamma and other inflammatory cytokines, but there has been renewed interest in the role of components of the innate immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased expression of interleukin-23 p19 mRNA in erythema nodosum-like lesions of Behçet's disease.
TL;DR: Recently, IL‐23, which is composed of a p19 subunit and a shared p40 subunit of IL‐12, was discovered; as a consequence, this raises the need to re‐examine previous IL‐ 12 reports to determine whether IL-23 is also involved in BD pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Docetaxel-induced onycholysis: the role of subungual hemorrhage and suppuration.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe two cases of severe nail changes induced by taxane chemotherapeutic agents, and the patients had previously been diagnosed with breast cancer and advanced gastric cancer, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Increased Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Messenger RNA in the Non-lesional Skin of Patients with Large Plaque Psoriasis Vulgaris
Sang Eun Lee,Wook Lew +1 more
TL;DR: The increased expression of MMP-9 mRNA in the LP non-lesional skin compared to that of the SP non-LESional skin in the psoriatic skin suggests that the increased MMP -9 mRNA expression is related to the large size type of lesion.
