Abstract

BACKGROUND: Psoriasis and Crohn's disease (CD) are chronic inflammatory diseases that involve complex immune-mediated mechanisms. Despite clinical overlap and shared genetic predispositions, the molecular pathways connecting these diseases remain incompletely understood. The present study seeks to identify shared biomarkers and therapeutic targets for psoriasis and CD.
