Résumé

This research utilizes whole metagenomic shotgun sequencing to analyze the skin microbiome in psoriasis patients, comparing lesional and non-lesional skin with that of healthy individuals. The study identifies significant differences in the microbial composition and functionality between psoriatic and healthy skin, revealing distinct microbial patterns and disruptions in psoriatic skin. These findings highlight the complex role of skin microbiota in psoriasis, emphasizing variations in bacteria and their functional characteristics beyond mere species identification.
