Psoriasis is a common, chronic systemic inflammatory disease affecting 125 million people worldwide. It is associated with several important conditions, including psoriatic arthritis, cardiometabolic syndrome, and depression, leading to a significant reduction in patients' quality of life. Current treatments only reduce symptoms, not cure. This review discusses the mechanisms involved in the initiation and development of the disease, the role of oxidative stress in this autoimmune disease, as well as potential therapeutic options with substances of natural origin. The main aim of the study is intended to offer a review of the literature to present plants and phytochemicals that can represent potential remedies in the fight against psoriasis. We identified many in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trials studies that evaluated the relationship between chosen natural substances and immune system response in the course of psoriasis. We sought to find articles about the efficacy of potential natural-derived drugs in controlling symptoms and their ability to maintain long-term disease inactivity without side effects, and the result of our work is a review, which highlights the effectiveness of plant-derived drugs in controlling the inflammatory burden on psoriatic patients by decreasing the oxidative stress conditions.
银屑病是一种常见的、慢性全身性炎症性疾病,影响全球 1.25 亿人。它与几种重要的疾病有关,包括银屑病关节炎、代谢综合征和抑郁症,导致患者的生活质量显著下降。目前的治疗方法只能减轻症状,不能治愈。这篇综述讨论了疾病的起始和发展机制,氧化应激在这种自身免疫性疾病中的作用,以及具有天然来源的物质的潜在治疗选择。本研究的主要目的是提供文献综述,介绍可在银屑病治疗中作为潜在药物的植物和植物化学物质。我们确定了许多体外、体内和临床试验研究,评估了所选天然物质与银屑病过程中免疫系统反应之间的关系。我们寻找关于潜在天然衍生药物控制症状的疗效及其维持疾病长期无活动状态而无副作用的能力的文章,我们的工作结果是一篇综述,强调了植物衍生药物在通过降低氧化应激条件来控制银屑病患者炎症负担方面的有效性。
