Infectious complications occurred more often with secukinumab than with placebo. Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory skin disease that is associated with substantial impairment of physical and psychological quality of life. 1 , 2 Our understanding of the pathogenesis of psoriasis was advanced by the discovery of the class of type 17 helper T (Th17) cells, which regulates innate and adaptive immunity. The proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-17A is the primary effector of Th17 cells, but it is also produced by other cell types in psoriatic lesions, including γδ T cells, neutrophils, and possibly mast cells. 3 – 7 Interleukin-17A stimulates keratinocytes to secrete chemokines and other proinflammatory mediators that recruit additional inflammatory cells, including neutrophils, . . .
