An Insilico Study of Isobutrin and Phosphorylase Kinase - A Ray of Hope for Psoriasis Patients – Clinical Hypothesis
Abstract: Psoriasis is a chronic, hyper-proliferative and inflammatory skin disease. Increased levels of the calmodulin-containing enzyme, namely, phosphorylase kinase (PhK), were observed in the human epidermis of the active psoriasis cases. Thus PhK is a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and progression of the skin disease, namely, psoriasis. The search for the potential molecules that could supress the over expression of PhK is underway and any break-through in this direction leads …
