简要总结
The study aims to observe the skin resident memory T cell (Trm) population in psoriatic patients and to correlate with response to various treatment modalities already taken. Memory cells are found in increased numbers in active psoriatic lesions, and their density decreases with treatment. Whether there is a relation of memory T cell population with psoriasis severity or same site recurrence is yet to be detected. Establishing such a causal relation will be a breakthrough, helping in targeted therapy for psoriasis. Recent studies also show that memory T cell density can act as a predictor of prolonged course of disease, hence guiding the choice of treatments. Our hypothesis is that memory T cell density is decreased on effective treatment.
