It is debatable whether intestinal dysbiosis in autoimmune disease is a cause or a consequence of chronic inflammation, but it is known that intestinal dysbiosis in the course of the disease is accompanied by an increased number of pro-inflammatory lymphocytes in the Th17 population. Yet, little is known about the systemic implications of skin and even the intestinal microbiome for skin immunity and pathogenesis in psoriasis, which the most prevalent autoimmune disease in the Caucasian population. The pathogenesis of psoriasis is multifactorial with notable contributions from genetics and environmental factors (e.g. diet, drugs and infection). This article describes alterations in the microbiome and macrobiome, which are involved in immune regulation. The composition of the gut microbiome can dramatically affect immune development and affect susceptibility to diseases, especially autoimmune disorders such as psoriasis. Understanding the mechanisms of pathogenesis induced by the micro- and macrobiome may prove crucial for innovative future solutions in skin disease treatment.
