Example sentences for: psoriatic
How can you use “psoriatic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Skin antigen-presenting cells (Langerhans cells) appear to play an important role in the initiating events that lead to the cytokine cascade that results in keratinocyte proliferation and development of psoriatic lesions [ 16 17 18 ] . Effective therapeutic approaches to psoriasis treatment, such as psoralen UV-A therapy (PUVA), which result in depletion of APCs in the skin [ 19 20 ] , and UV-B [ 21 ] , lead to one of the most sustained improvement in psoriasis.
Additional studies are being performed which address whether PTU treatment of patients with plaque psoriasis leads to reduced in situ IL-12 expression, alters production of the IL-35 or IL-40 components of the IL-70 heterodimer, as well as exerts an effect by enhancing apoptosis in the proliferated keratinocytes that make up the psoriatic plaque which would result in clinical improvement.
E-FABP is found in liver and other organs [ 68 ] , but it has been most studied in psoriatic skin lesions [ 69 ] where it has putative roles in FA cytoplasmic transport, skin barrier function and keratinocyte differentiation [ 70 ] . Although links between PPARs and E-FABP have not currently been identified, this gene clustered with other known PPAR-affected genes suggesting a possibly important regulatory link.
A key element in the generation of the cytokine signals responsible for formation of a psoriatic plaque is the skin antigen-presenting cell or Langerhans cell.
Biopsy samples were taken from patients at the start and after 3 months of PTU treatment from the same psoriatic lesion.
