Allergic mechanisms as new triggers of psoriasis development

The issue of the causal relationship between allergy and psoriatic disease and the features of the spectrum of sensitization to allergens in psoriasis is considered to be relevant. When assessing the spectrum of sensitization to household and pollen allergens in patients with psoriasis, the highest frequency of occurrence of sensitization to a mixture of house dust allergens and a mixture of tree pollen was established. Thus, in the study, new triggers of psoriasis were identified. The data obtained in the course of this study support the concept that atopic mechanisms are characteristic of psoriasis, but to a lesser extent than for atopic dermatitis and are protective against the development of autoimmune mechanisms.
