Enhanced Inflammasome Activity in Patients with Psoriasis Promotes Systemic Inflammation

Deepti Verma et al.

Summary: Psoriasis patients show increased levels of IL-1 beta and IL-18 in plasma, along with elevated expression of inflammasome sensors in peripheral blood cells. TNF-alpha activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, and anti-TNF therapy can normalize inflammasome function, potentially reducing cardiovascular risk.
