Article Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting skin and joints that results from immunological dysfunction such as enhanced IL-23 induced Th-17 differentiation. IkappaB-Zeta (IκBζ) is an atypical transcriptional factor of the IκB protein family since, contrary to the other family members, it positively regulates NF-κB pathway by being exclusively localized into the nucleus. IκBζ deficiency reduces visible manifestations of experimental psoriasis by diminishing expression of psoriasis-associated genes. It is thus tempting to consider IκBζ as a potential therapeutic target for psoriasis as well as for other IL23/IL17-mediated inflammatory diseases. In this review, we will discuss the regulation of expression of NFKBIZ and its protein IκBζ, its downstream targets, its involvement in pathogenesis of multiple disorders with emphasis on psoriasis and evidences supporting that inhibition of IκBζ may be a promising alternative to current therapeutic managements of psoriasis.

Th17 cell pathogenicity in autoimmune disease.

T helper 17 (Th17) cells have been implicated in numerous inflammatory autoimmune diseases. Clinical benefits from targeting Th17 cell-related cytokines, such as IL-17 and IL-23, highlight how knowledge of Th17 cell development and effector function can be translated into treatments for inflammatory disease. Here we discuss the pathogenic roles of Th17 cells in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis, with emphasis on the cytokines, transcriptional regulators and metabolites that influence Th17 cell differentiation and pathogenicity.

Emerging evidence suggests a critical role of the gut microbiome in modulating systemic immune responses, with increasing relevance in dermatological diseases. Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), traditionally viewed as an isolated cutaneous disorder, is now recognized as a systemic immune condition involving complex interactions between innate and adaptive immunity, mast cell dysregulation, and non-IgE-mediated pathways. This review explores the gut-skin axis as a unifying concept linking intestinal dysbiosis to inflammatory skin diseases, including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, and acne.

Inflammatory skin diseases and skin cancers are usually accompanied by metabolic comorbidities or altered metabolic status. Metabolomic analysis indicates that patients with inflammatory skin diseases and skin cancers exhibit altered metabolites, including glycans, lipids, and amino acids. This suggests that metabolic reprogramming may play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of these skin diseases.

Introduction: Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated skin condition that has a substantial impact on patients' quality of life. The Saudi Arabia Psoriasis Registry (PSORSA) was established to address long-term real-world data (RWD) on systemic and biologic therapies in the region. This observational cohort study provides a comprehensive analysis of baseline disease characteristics, comorbidities, and treatment efficacy among patients enrolled in PSORSA, with an emphasis on risankizumab.

This article examines the importance of patient-centered research in radiology with an emphasis on incorporating the patient perspective to improve patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and research relevance. The methods for effective patient engagement include creating patient advisory councils, developing PRO measures, and incorporating patients as active members of research teams. To solve logistic challenges and technical difficulties, communication tools such as visual aids, simplified language, and digital applications are discussed.
