This review explores the dynamic mechanisms underlying psoriasis, highlighting the role of T lymphocytes in targeting healthy skin cells, leading to inflammation and the formation of characteristic white scaly patches on various body parts. Over the past 15 years, significant strides in unraveling the origins of psoriasis have paved the way for the development of precise and highly effective treatments. Key insights into the pathogenesis, particularly the dominance of interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-23 (IL-23), have shaped therapeutic strategies to mitigate chronic inflammatory disorders. Notably, various therapies employing different mechanisms of action, including interleukin blockers and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF- α) inhibitors, have emerged as valuable options for psoriasis management. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of psoriasis pathophysiology and highlights advanced therapeutic approaches that are widely accessible. The focus extends to emerging targeted drugs, such as netakimab, which functions as an interleukin-17 blocker, currently undergoing clinical trials for psoriasis treatment.

This versatile compound exists in various forms, including kappa, iota, and lambda, each with distinct characteristics suitable for different applications. Its widespread use as a food additive has raised concerns regarding its safety, particularly its potential inflammatory effects on the gastrointestinal tract. While carrageenan has been deemed safe for consumption by regulatory agencies in small amounts, studies have suggested its association with intestinal inflammation and gastrointestinal disturbances, particularly in susceptible individuals. Animal models, including rodents and non-human primates, have been employed to investigate the inflammatory response induced by carrageenan ingestion. These models have provided valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying its pro-inflammatory properties. At the molecular level, carrageenan is believed to trigger inflammation by activating toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathways, leading to the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the recruitment of immune cells to the site of exposure. Furthermore, carrageenan-induced inflammation may disrupt the intestinal barrier function, facilitating the translocation of luminal antigens and exacerbating immune responses.

Immunotherapy and medications are frequently used to treat allergic disorders. The use of probiotics in bacteriotherapy has lately gained interest. Probiotics are essential to human health by modulating the gut microbiota in some ways. Due to probiotics' immunomodulatory properties present in the gut microbiota of all animals, including humans, these bacterial strains can prevent a wide variety of allergic disorders. Probiotic treatment helps allergy patients by decreasing inflammatory cytokines and enhancing intestinal permeability, which is important in the battle against allergy. By altering the balance of Th1 and Th2 immune responses in the intestinal mucosa, probiotics can heal allergic disorders. Numerous studies have shown a correlation between probiotics and a reduced risk of allergy disorders. A wide range of allergic disorders, including atopic dermatitis, asthma, allergic retinitis and food allergies has been proven to benefit from probiotic bacteria.
