pubmed:abstractText |
Psoriasis is characterized by epidermal infiltration of neutrophils that destroy invading microorganisms via a potent antimicrobial arsenal of oxidants and antimicrobial agents. In contrast to atopic dermatitis, psoriasis exhibits low levels of skin infections due to the presence of antimicrobial agents, including cathelicidin LL-37. LL-37 kills a broad spectrum of microbes, and activates neutrophil chemotaxis.
