Dithranol is a cell-specific, non-cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agent that is used to treat psoriasis. It inhibits the activity of many cells in the immune system, including polymorphonuclear leucocytes and T lymphocytes. Dithranol also has been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines by these cells, which leads to a decrease in disease activity. The mechanism of dithranol's action is not fully understood. However, it has been proposed that this drug inhibits the synthesis of mitochondrial membrane potential by inhibiting certain enzymes and thus preventing ATP production. Dithranol also has been shown to inhibit polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and can be used as a model system for studying how DNA replication occurs. Dithranol is effective for long-term treatment because it does not induce resistance unlike other chemotherapeutic agents. Combination therapy with synthetic retinoids, such as tretinoin or isotret
