Researchers used tissue samples from patients with an inflammatory skin disease called hidradenitis suppurativa to gain insights into inflammation patterns before and after drug exposure.

Human cell models may never be as good as the real thing, but we need these models to be as close as possible to understand how diseases develop and progress, and whether treatments are effective.
