Abstract
Psoriasis is a common autoimmune disorder that affects the skin. Approximately 30% of individuals with psoriasis will develop inflammatory arthritis, often in the setting of human leukocyte antigen B27. Both forms of disease are thought to be the result of prolonged inflammation mediated by T lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and keratinocytes. While there are treatments aimed at immunomodulation, targeting T cell co-inhibitory receptors signaling pathways may provide therapeutic benefit. This review will discuss in detail four T cell co-inhibitory receptors and their potential application for the treatment of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.Entities:
