Hidradenitis Suppurativa: An Understanding of Genetic Factors and Treatment.
Biomedicines 2024 Februrary 2
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), recognized as a chronic and debilitating skin disease, presents significant challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. This review explores the clinical manifestations, genetic landscape, and molecular mechanisms underlying HS. The disease's association with a predisposing genetic background, obesity, smoking, and skin occlusion underscores the complexity of its etiology. Genetic heterogeneity manifests in sporadic, familial, and syndromic forms, with a focus on mutations in the γ-secretase complex genes, particularly NCSTN. The dysregulation of immune mediators, including TNF-α, IL-17, IL-1β, and IL-12/23, plays a crucial role in the chronic inflammatory nature of HS. Recent advancements in genetic research have identified potential therapeutic targets, leading to the development of anti-TNF-α, anti-IL-17, anti-IL-1α, and anti-IL-12/23 therapies and JAK inhibitors. These interventions offer promise in alleviating symptoms and improving the quality of life for HS patients.
