Article Synopsis
  • Psoriasis is an autoimmune skin disease, and Boswellia serrata (BS) gum resin shows potential in managing inflammatory conditions, although its effectiveness is limited due to poor absorption in the body.
  • The study tests a new formulation of Boswellia called Boswellia nano emulsion gel (BNG) on mice with dermatitis induced to resemble psoriasis, finding that BNG significantly reduces inflammation and the associated symptoms.
  • Results indicated that treatment with BNG lowers gene expression linked to inflammation compared to control groups, suggesting its therapeutic potential, but more clinical studies are needed to confirm these findings in humans.
