No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The skin harbors a complex and dynamic microbiota constituted by numerous microorganisms that live in symbiosis with the host. The specific etiology of psoriasis is still not-well understood; nonetheless several studies highlighted that that the skin microbiota could have a pivotal role in the maintenance and/or progression of the disease, acting as microbial predictor of psoriasis however.

The aim of the present study was to characterize the microbiota of cutaneous biopsies associated to guttate and vulgaris psoriasis, both considering lesion and healthy skin belonging to the same psoriatic subject.
