Inhibition of histone deacetylases 3 attenuates imiquimod-induced psoriatic dermatitis via targeting cGAS-STING signaling in keratinocytes

Our findings establish HDAC3 as a pivotal mediator of psoriasis pathogenesis through the cGAS-STING pathway via mitochondrial dysfunction. The role of HDAC3 in exacerbating epidermal hyperproliferation and inflammation highlights its potential as a therapeutic target. Targeting HDAC3 in keratinocytes may offer a novel strategy for preventing and treating psoriasis by modulating epigenetic regulation, mitochondrial homeostasis, and innate immune responses.
