Macrophages in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and anti-psoriatic nanotherapies
Vol 39, Issue 2, 2025

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common, chronic, and inflammatory skin disease. Macrophages account for about 61.3% of the inflammatory cells infiltrating psoriatic lesions. Modulating macrophage polarization, inhibiting their infiltration, and targeting the secretion of inflammatory factors and associated inflammatory pathways by these cells can alleviate psoriasis symptoms and inflammation. Moreover, nanomaterials as novel drug carriers, offer unique advantages such as large surface area, easy modification, high biocompatibility, good biodegradability, enhanced systemic adsorption, etc. Nanomaterials have great potential for efficient drug delivery and release, as well as improving therapeutic efficacy while reducing adverse effects. By systematically addressing the role of macrophages in psoriasis pathogenesis and the potential of nanomaterials in treating psoriasis through modulating macrophages, this review enhances our understanding of the disease mechanism and holds promise for novel therapeutic breakthroughs and advancements in the future treatment of psoriasis.
