Interleukin (IL)-23 is considered an effective therapeutic target for the treatment of psoriasis because of the crucial role of the IL-23/IL-17 axis in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, and it has recently been reported to be involved in ILC3 cell differentiation. In this study, we report that eukaryotically expressed rhIL23R-CHR/Fc, as an endogenous extracellular receptor analogue, could be a natural antagonist in an imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like mouse model, including the antagonizing effect of suppressed inflammation in the skin lesion, decreased production of pro-inflammatory cells, and reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors. The rhIL23R-CHR/Fc fusion protein inhibits both innate immune and adaptive immune-mediated inflammatory responses. These findings shed light on rhIL23R-CHR/Fc as a promising candidate therapy for the treatment of psoriasis.
