Abstract excerpt
The identification of loss-of-function mutations of the IL36RN gene encoding the interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra) in generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) emphasized the key role of this pathway in skin innate immunity and systemic inflammation. It has been previously shown in vitro that removal of the N-terminal amino acid IL36Ra (M1) is critical to its biological activity, but the in vivo...
