Abstract:(1): Atopic dermatitis and psoriasis vulgaris are chronic, inflammatory diseases. Clinical presentation usually leads to a proper diagnosis, but sometimes neither clinical examination nor histopathological evaluation can be conclusive. Therefore, we aimed to build up a novel diagnostic tool and check it for accuracy. The main objective of our work was to differentiate between healthy skin (C), atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis vulgaris (PV) biopsies on the base of involucrin (IVL) and human β-defensin-2 (hB… Show more
