Cutting-Edge Research on Psoriasis

Dear Colleagues,

Psoriasis is a common, chronic, inflammatory, immune-mediated disease, primarily affecting the skin. It is characterized by abnormalities in innate and acquired immunity, hyperproliferation, and abnormal differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes.

Psoriasis is a systemic, multifactorial disease associated with psoriatic arthritis in approximately one-third of patients, so early recognition and effective treatment are critical for patients. ​In addition, people with severe psoriasis are at higher risk for metabolic and cardiovascular disease. The development of new effective treatments for psoriasis has changed the prognosis and the life of many patients around the world, but there is a strong need for more real-world experiences of these drugs

This Special Issue entitled “Cutting-Edge Research on Psoriasis” is now open for submissions, welcoming both original researches and reviews that describe the latest treatment strategies and clinical management approaches related to psoriasis.
