As demonstrated by means of an immunoperoxidase technique, the great majority of the infiltrating mononuclear cells located in the superficial and middle dermis of psoriatic skin consisted of T-lymphocytes. On the contrary, immunoglobulin bearing cells, investigated by means of both immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence methods, were scarce; IgA and IgG cells were predominant, whilst IgM cells were scarcely represented. Macrophages and monocytic cells were observed in the superficial dermis by means of the alpha-naphtyl-acetate-esterase method, in frozen sections. The role of the above mentioned cells and the significance of their reciprocal relationships still remains in discussion.
