Abstract
Based on our clinical observations on pregnant woman skin, we hypothesized that stretched skin during pregnancy may share some inflammatory characteristics with psoriatic lesions. Indeed, there may be a direct relationship between mechanical tension and inflammation and we further suggested that this may contribute to the development of striae gravidarum during pregnancy. We developed in vitro models of stretched skin in order to better understand the inflammatory conditions and pathways involved in stretch marks formation.
