Slide 14: Conclusions
Conclusions • IRAK4 is overexpressed in HS skin relative to healthy subjects due to increase in number of IRAK4+ dermal immune cells and epidermal keratinocytes • Higher expression in active HS skin Lesions compared to Peri-lesion and/or Non-lesion skin associated with increase in infiltrating IRAK4
