The link between autophagy and psoriasis.
Acta Histochemica 2024 April 30
Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent, self-renewal mechanism that degrades and recycles cellular components in eukaryotic cells to maintain the homeostasis of the intracellular environment. Psoriasis is featured by increased inflammatory response, epidermal hyperproliferation and abnormal differentiation, infiltration of immune cells and increased expression levels of both endothelial adhesion molecules and angiogenic mediators. Evidence indicates that autophagy has important roles in many different types of cells, such as lymphocytes, keratinocytes, monocytes and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This paper will review the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and strategies for therapeutic modulation. Key Message Autophagy regulates the functions of cutaneous cells (MSCs, KCs, T cells and endothelial cells). Since reduced autophagy contributes in part to the pathogenesis of psoriasis, enhancement of autophagy can be an alternative approach to mitigate psoriasis.
