💥 Dr. Roxane Pouliot's latest research sheds new light on psoriasis using 3D skin models! 🧫 Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease characterized by an abnormal and excessive proliferation of keratinocytes, thus thickening the skin.
This study shows that eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid, can normalize the proliferation of psoriatic keratinocytes, and can reduce the expression of the cytokine IL-17A by T cells, thus exerting anti-inflammatory effects and boosting immune tolerance 🌱
This indicates that EPA could be a valuable asset for enhancing outcomes in psoriasis patients, and further investigation is warranted! 🌟
