Abstract
Background: An autoimmune-mediated dermatological ailment featuring recurrent episodes is
acknowledged as psoriasis. Around the world, 2–3% of people suffer from this autoimmune skin condition.
Objectives: The primary goal of the current review is to analyse and determine the effectiveness of conventional
and emerging nano technological strategies to alleviate psoriasis and discuss future perspectives.
Methods: A thorough search of numerous electronic databases, including Science Direct, Scopus,
Google Scholar, Clinical Trials, Google Patents, Research Gate, and PubMed, yielded all the data used
in this review paper about the management of psoriasis via various anti-psoriatic agent and nanotechnology
approaches. Keywords such as topical, liposomes, niosomes, micro needles, clinical trials, patents,
pathogenesis, biosimilars, cytokines, and other pertinent words were investigated.
Results: Nano technological approaches are gaining prominence since they enable targeted delivery,
rapid onset of action with limited systemic exposure. Researchers have investigated innovative, alternative
therapeutic approaches that are both secure and efficient for treating psoriatic conditions. Further,
the potential role of numerous psoriatic conventional therapies has been explored. The patents granted
or in process to address psoriasis via topical route have been well explored. Modern nanotechnology has
made it possible for pharmaceuticals to be delivered with improved physical, chemical, pharmacokinetic,
and pharmacodynamic qualities. Despite extensive research complete cure for psoriasis is hampered.
Conclusion: Relying on the extensive literature review, it can be inferred that nanoparticles based novel
delivery strategies have the possibility of enhancing the pharmacological activity and eliminating or resolving
problems associated with this ailment. The different drug delivery systems available for the
treatment of psoriasis along with the clinical trials in different stages, patents in process and granted, the
commercialized status of therapeutic molecules, and the future of research in this area have been thoroughly
reviewed.
Keywords:
Psoriasis, cytokines, biologics, topical, patents, nanocarrier.
