Abstract
Psoriasis is an autoimmune cutaneous condition that significantly impacts quality of life and represents a burden on society due to its prevalence. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have pinpointed several psoriasis-related risk loci, underlining the disease's complexity. Functional genomics is paramount to unveiling the role of such loci in psoriasis and disentangling its complex nature. In this review, we aim to elucidate the main findings in this field and integrate our discussion with gold-standard techniques in molecular biology-i.e., Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-and high-throughput technologies. These tools are vital to understanding how disease risk loci affect gene expression in psoriasis, which is crucial in identifying new targets for personalized treatments in advanced precision medicine.
