Contact us now to learn more about our IL-23-induced psoriasis model and how it can benefit your research.

IL-23, secreted by various immune cells such as dendritic cells and macrophages, potently activates T helper 17 (Th17) cells. In response, Th17 cells secrete cytokines that trigger inflammation and facilitate the recruitment of immune cells to the site of infection or injury. Extensive research has demonstrated that IL-23 levels are significantly elevated in the skin lesions of psoriasis patients, and the inhibition of IL-23 activity has been shown to attenuate the severity of the disease. The IL-23-induced psoriasis mouse model serves as a convenient, user-friendly, and cost-effective tool to simulate acute inflammatory responses. This model is widely employed in mechanistic pharmacology and pathology research, serving as a valuable preclinical animal model for drug screening and testing before clinical trials on psoriatic patients. Its utilization ensures a rigorous and reliable assessment of potential therapeutics, thereby enhancing the drug development process.
