RNA-seq Permits a Closer Look at Normal Skin and Psoriasis Gene Networks

Abstract

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease driven by aberrant signals from the immune system. In this issue, Li et al. present the first large RNA-seq analysis of gene expression in normal skin and psoriasis lesions, providing a more comprehensive view of mRNA expression than earlier microarray studies. This study's size enables gene co-expression analysis, a method illustrating which pathways are altered by the presence of disease.
