The CCL20 and CCR6 axis in psoriasis

View through CrossRef
AbstractPsoriasis is a TNF‐α/IL‐23/IL‐17A–mediated inflammatory skin disease that causes a significant socioeconomic burden in afflicted patients. IL‐17A–producing immune cells, including Th17 cells, are crucial effector cells in the development of psoriasis. IL‐17A stimulates epidermal keratinocytes to produce CCL20, which eventually recruits CCR6 + Th17 cells into the lesional skin. Thus, the CCL20/CCR6 axis works as a driving force that prepares an IL‐17A–rich cutaneous milieu. In this review, we summarize the current research topics on the CCL20/CCR6 axis and the therapeutic intervention of this axis for psoriasis.
