Application of LCE5A as a target in the preparation of drugs for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases including psoriasis

The present invention discloses an application of LCE5A as a target in the preparation of a drug for treating inflammatory skin diseases including psoriasis, wherein the LCE5A is mainly expressed on the epidermis; the present invention confirms through a series of experiments that LCE5A can effectively alleviate imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation in mice. The protein can significantly improve the barrier function of mouse skin, inhibit the release of proinflammatory factors and reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells by regulating the proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes. This provides important experimental support for the use of LCE5A in the preparation of drugs for skin diseases caused by skin barrier damage, as well as the development of functional skin care products. The experimental results clearly show that LCE5A exhibits significant therapeutic effects in a mouse psoriasis-like inflammation model, and its effect is safe and stable.
