Background: Psoriasis is recognized as a systemic disease for its accompanying comorbidities, among which psychological disorders present a high incidence rate and affect patients' life quality. Interleukin (IL)-17A is the central pathological factor in the pathogenesis and development of psoriasis.

Objective: To clarify if psoriasis-induced systemic IL-17A increase can mediate the neuronal inflammation and result in depressive-like symptoms.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) exhibits a low response to immunotherapy due to the dense extracellular matrix (ECM) filled with immunosuppressive cells including dendritic cells (DCs) of blocked maturation. Herein, we develop a nanoprodrug self-assembled from polyethylene glycol-poly-4-borono-l-phenylalanine (mPEG-PBPA) conjugating with quercetin (QUE) via boronic ester bonds. In addition, an immune adjuvant of imiquimod (R837) is incorporated.

Psoriasis is a life-long immune-mediated dermatosis with thickened, reddish, and flaky skin patches. Canagliflozin is a gliflozin antidiabetic with non-classical remarkable antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and immune-modulating effects. The aim of this study is to examine the probable effects of topical canagliflozin on a mouse model of imiquimod-provoked psoriasis-like dermatitis.

Inflammation and autoimmunity are known as central processes in many skin diseases, including psoriasis. It is therefore important to develop pre-clinical models that describe disease-related aspects to enable testing of pharmaceutical drug candidates and formulations. A widely accepted pre-clinical model of psoriasis is the imiquimod (IMQ)-induced skin inflammation mouse model, where topically applied IMQ provokes local skin inflammation.
