The present invention relates to the use of EZH2 inhibitors for the treatment of psoriasis, a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of psoriasis comprising said EZH2 inhibitors, a method for the preparation of said pharmaceutical composition, a method for the therapeutic treatment of a living being against psoriasis, a method for the screening of active agents against psoriasis, and the use in vitro of a EZH2 inhibitor for the suppression of the cellular IκBζ expression.

This invention generally relates to biomarkers associated with anti-IL-36R antibody treatment in generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP). The invention also relates to methods of using the biomarkers disclosed.

Provided herein is a novel antibody exhibiting binding affinity and specificity to galectin-7. Also provided herein are methods for treating psoriasis or cancer in a subject by administering to the subject a drug selected with the aid of the present anti-galectin-7 antibody.

The present disclosure relates to antibodies, for example monoclonal antibodies, and their use in clinical patient evaluation and therapy. The present disclosure further relates to a method for modulating the activity of human CXCL-1 protein (hereinafter, referred to as CXCL1). In an aspect, antibodies described herein are capable of being used as a medicament for the prevention and/or treatment of diseases involving CXCL1 function, for example, pathological angiogenesis and inflammatory diseases.

The present invention relates to mutants of S100A12 having at least one mutation in the high-affinity calcium binding hand or the low-affinity calcium binding hand or the zinc binding region. The present invention also relates to methods of detecting S100A12 dimers in a sample as well as methods of diagnosis using the S100A12 mutant of the invention, as well as to diagnostic compositions and kits comprising such an S100A12 mutant. The present invention further relates to a method of generating an antibody that specifically binds to an S100A12 dimer using the S100A12 mutant of the invention, as well as to an antibody that specifically binds to an S100A12 dimer.

The present invention is based on the discovery of genetic polymorphisms that are associated with psoriasis and related pathologies. In particular, the present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules containing the polymorphisms, including groups of nucleic acid molecules that may be used as a signature marker set, such as a haplotype, a diplotype, variant proteins encoded by such nucleic acid molecules, reagents for detecting the polymorphic nucleic acid molecules and proteins, and methods of using the nucleic acid and proteins as well as methods of using reagents for their detection.

[Problem] The purpose of the present invention is to provide new treatment targets and treatment methods for chronic inflammatory disease based on a molecular biological mechanism relating to the onset of keloid. [Solution] The present invention relates to a drug for the prevention and/or treatment of chronic inflammatory disease that contains as an active ingredient a substance that suppresses the expression and/or inhibits the activity of a specific NEDD4 splicing variant protein. Also provided are a method for evaluating the susceptibility of a subject to chronic inflammatory disease and a method for evaluating the suitability of treatment of a chronic inflammatory disease by the abovementioned drug that include a step for detecting the NEDD4 splicing variant protein or mRNA in a collected tissue, a drug for preventing and/or treating chronic inflammatory disease that contains as an active ingredient a substance that suppresses the expression and/or inhibits the activity of NEDD4 protein, and a method for evaluating the susceptibility of a subject to chronic inflammatory disease that includes a step for detecting a specific SNP of NEDD4.
