Inherent differences in keratinocyte function in hidradenitis suppurativa: Evidence for the role of IL-22 in disease pathogenesis
3 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent, inflammatory disease of apocrine gland-bearing skin which affects approximately 1-4% of the population. Defective keratinocyte function has been postulated to play a role in HS pathogenesis. Using an in vitro scratch assay, differences between normal, HS, and chronic wound (CW) keratinocytes were evaluated. Normal keratinocytes exhibited faster scratch...
