The role of immune system in dermatological disorders.
Dermatological disorders affect the skin, hair, and nails, and can be caused by various factors including genetics, environment, and immune dysfunction. The immune system plays a crucial role in the development and progression of dermatological disorders, acting as a protective barrier against external threats. Innate and adaptive immune cells work together to detect and eliminate foreign substances, while dysfunction of the immune system can lead to autoimmune disorders and increased susceptibility to infections. Understanding the complex interactions between the immune system and the skin is essential for the development of effective treatments for dermatological disorders.
