Exploring the Role of MOA and PDE4 Pathways in Pediatric Patients with Plaque Psoriasis

Key Takeaways

  • PDE4 inhibitors modulate inflammatory responses by increasing intracellular cAMP levels, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production.
  • These agents offer a targeted approach, potentially minimizing side effects compared to traditional therapies.
