Abstract
Atopic dermatitis and psoriasis are prevalent inflammatory skin conditions with diverse treatment options. Despite advances in understanding their underlying mechanisms, recent research highlights the significance of interleukins IL-18 and IL-37 as potential therapeutic targets. This review synthesizes knowledge on these interleukins, their roles in atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, and emerging treatment strategies. Findings of a literature search up to May 30, 2024 underscore a research gap in IL-37-targeted therapies. Conversely, IL-18-focused treatments have demonstrated promise in adult-onset Still’s Disease, warranting further exploration for their potential efficacy in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.
