CXCL8 and Erythema: Actually, it is worth noting that the leptin-deficient mice with IMQ-induced psoriasis presented an attenuated extent of several manifestations of inflammation, such as the clinical signs of erythema, infiltration and scales in dorsal skin and ear skin [58]; however, after the pharmacological stimulation of leptin, the authors observed that the T lymphocytes isolated from those mice are more likely to be polarized to Th1 lymphocytes with an increase secretion of several pro-inflammatory factors, including IL-6, IL-8 (CXCL8) and TNF-α [59, 60].
