Reduced EZH2 Expression in Circulating CD8-Positive T Cells and Monocytes in Psoriasis.
Article in Experimental dermatology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Enhancer of Zeste Homologue 2 (EZH2) is an epigenetic regulator involved in immune cell differentiation and function; however, its role in psoriasis remains unknown. This study aimed to evaluate EZH2 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with psoriasis and explore its potential functional relevance to disease pathogenesis. Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 40 psoriasis patients and 18 healthy controls, and EZH2 expression in T cell and monocyte subsets was analysed by flow cytometry. EZH2 expression was significantly reduced in circulating CD8+ naïve and memory T cells, as well as in monocyte subsets from psoriasis patients compared to healthy controls. EZH2 levels in CD8+ naïve T cells showed a significant inverse correlation with disease severity scores. Functional analyses revealed that pharmacological EZH2 inhibition suppressed IL-17A expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells under IL-23/IL-1β stimulation. In addition, immunofluorescence staining identified EZH2-positive T cells and monocytes within psoriatic skin lesions. Collectively, these findings suggest that EZH2 may be involved in the regulation of type 3 inflammatory responses and may therefore represent an epigenetic regulator contributing to psoriasis pathogenesis.
