ABSTRACT: Background
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease characterized by the hyperproliferative epidermal keratinocytes and significant immune cells infiltration, leading to cytokines production such as IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-23, and IL-17. Recent study highlights the critical role of IL-1β in the induction and activation of pathogenic Th17 and IL-17-producing γδ T cells, contributing to psoriasis. However, the mechanism underlying IL-1β dysregulation in psoriasis pathogenesis is unclear. Autophagy regulates IL-1β production and has a pleiotropic effect on inflammatory disorders. Previous studies showed controversial role of autophagy in psoriasis pathogenesis, either pro-inflammatory in autophagy-deficient keratinocyte or anti-inflammatory in pharmacologically autophagy-promoting macrophag
