Conversely, compartimentalization and expression of the marker of differentiation, such as KRT10, rather weak in the suprabasal layer epidermis of IMQ-treated mice, were restored by treatment with the drug (Figure 5).
Immunohistochemistry analysis of mouse skin left untreated (i), IMQ-treated (ii), and IMQ-treated in the presence of tofacitinib (iii) shows reduction of positive CD3, LY6G, Ki67, CD11c, and CD11b cells and an increase of KRT10 in the epidermis after tofacitinib treatment.
