Summary

Acne vulgaris is an inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit, affecting about 85% of the young population. In the studies p. acne is a potent stimulator of the release of IFN-gamma (IFN-)) and IL-17 from CD4 + T cells, and the presence of IL-17 + cells in the perifollicular infiltrate has been shown in biopsies of inflammatory acne lesions. Therefore, acne is thought to be a Th17-related disease (1).

This study was aimed to evaluate the presence of enthesitis in patients with acne vulgaris.
