Abstract
The main idea of a new hypothesis about the aetiopathogenesis of psoriasis concerns the significance of interrelation between pro- and antioxidants, vitamin A-dependent keratin synthesis and proliferation of keratinocytes. On the basis of postulated deregulation in the antioxidative system of the organism, we explain the predisposition, the initiation and pathogenesis of lesions, their persistence and resolution and the operation mechanisms of antipsoriatics.Entities:
