Popis: Psoriasis is a complex chronic skin inflammatory disease characterized by abnormal proliferation, differentiation of keratinocytes and infiltration of lymphocytes and neutrophils. The tripeptide KdPT, structurally derived from the C-terminal amino acid of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, has shown a significant anti-inflammatory effect on mild-to-moderate active ulcerative colitis in previous reports. In this research, we investigated whether KdPT could consistently ameliorate disease in a mouse model of imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis by inhibiting proliferation and inflammation response. We demonstrated that KdPT
