Abstract

As the largest human organ, the skin is continuously exposed to various external and internal triggers that affect body homeostasis. Psoriasis is a persistent inflammatory skin condition that has a major bearing on patients' physiological functioning as well as their mental well-being. It is an autoimmune disorder and has been the focus of extensive research efforts in recent years. Cells secrete exosomes into the environment surrounding them, which comprises a lipid bilayer. The movement of cellular components like microRNAs, mRNAs, DNA, lipids, metabolites, and cell-surface proteins is mediated by exosomes. Exosomes are crucial for inducing communication between cells. There has been extensive study of exosomes, both preclinical and clinical, looking at their potential role in autoimmune diseases. Besides the role that they play in the body's basic processes, exosomes are also considered an increasingly essential part as diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In the following article, we conduct a literature review of current studies related to molecular and structural aspects of exosomes. We emphasis on the function of exosomes in pathogenesis, as well as the possibility of their usage in medicinal applications and as biomarkers.
