Abstract excerpt
Psoriasis is an incurable immune-mediated skin disease, affecting around 1%-3% of the population. Various lines of evidence implicate IL23 as being pivotal in disease. Genetic variants within the IL23 receptor (IL23R) increase the risk of developing psoriasis, and biologic therapies specifically targeting IL23 demonstrated high efficacy in treating disease. IL23 acts via the IL23R, signalling through the STAT3...
