Transcriptome Patterns in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Support for the Role of Antimicrobial Peptides and Interferon Pathways in Disease Pathogenesis

Comparison of transcriptome of HS samples and Abdominoplasty skin Aim: The purpose of this study was to harness mRNA expression arrays to investigate the transcriptome profile in HS compared to control skin. Methods: Illumina HumanHT-12 v4 Expression Bead Chips were used to measure mRNA expression in skin samples from HS (n=10) and abdominoplasty skin specimens (n=11).
