Fig. 1From: Elevated cholesteryl ester transfer and phospholipid transfer proteins aggravated psoriasis in imiquimod-induced mouse modelsImiquimod-mediated skin inflammation in a psoriasis mouse model. Back skin shaved in CETP-Tg, PLTP-Tg, and WT mice was exposed to IMQ cream every day. A–C Phenotypes of the back skin of mice following treatment for five days consecutively. D–E Back skin clinical cumulative score (TLPSS; erythema + scaling + thickness). Symbols represent the mean ± SD; n = 6/group; *P < 0.05 vs. WT group; IMQ, imquimod; CETP, cholesteryl ester transfer protein; PLTP, phospholipid transfer protein; TLPSS, target lesion psoriasis severity score; WT, wild-type; Tg, transgenicBack to article page
