Abstrakt: Rare autosomal mutations in CARD14 have previously been linked to psoriasis susceptibility in humans, but their pathogenic role had not been shown. Mellett et al. generated mice harboring the patient-derived gain-of-function Card14ΔE138 mutation and showed that hyperactivation of CARD14 alone is sufficient to induce immunopathogenic mechanisms that are responsible for psoriasis, which is driven by the IL-17/IL-23 axis.
