Poly(A)+mRNAs were purified from the skin sheets of five psoriatic patients and three healthy individuals, and mRNA expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor gene was studied by Northern-blot technique using a cDNA probe of the whole EGF-receptor gene. Both psoriatic and normal skin had 5.3-kb and 11.0-kb mRNAs of the EGF-receptor gene. There existed no clear differences in the mRNA levels between psoriasis and normal controls. Since Nanney et al. has reported an increased number of EGF-receptors in active lesions of psoriasis, it has been speculated that the production of EGF-receptors is not increased, but rather that the down-regulation may be decreased, in psoriatic skin, resulting in the increased number of EGF-receptors.
