Inflammation dependent mTORC1 signaling interferes with the switch from keratinocyte proliferation to differentiation.

Psoriasis is a frequent and often severe inflammatory skin disease, characterized by altered epidermal homeostasis. Since we found previously that Akt/mTOR signaling is hyperactivated in psoriatic skin, we aimed at elucidating the role of aberrant mTORC1 signaling in this disease. We found that unde...
