Inhibition of keratin 17 expression with antisense and RNAi strategies: exploring novel therapy for psoriasis.

abstract：:Chemical haptens induce a variety of allergic immune reactions by induction of hapten-specific T cells. Contact sensitizers such as the hapten trinitrochlorobenzene (TNCB) elicit an allergic response, which is confined to the area of antigen exposure. Despite this localized allergic response, we show here that the tri...
