IL17A and skin squamous cell carcinoma: The purpose of this study was to investigate (1) the immunomodulatory effects of FICZ and DMBA on normal human keratinocytes (NHKCs), focusing on IL-17, and related cytokines/chemokines (IL-23, IL-36γ, and CCL20), (2) the expression of these factors in AhR-dependent pathways using a two-stage chemically induced skin carcinogenesis mouse model, and (3) the expression of these factors in lesion-affected skin in cSCC.
