Abstract: The anthocyanidin delphinidin reduces psoriasiform lesions and inflammatory mediators in human cell culture systems. Its role in psoriatic disease has not yet been investigated. We assessed delphinidin's in vitro immunomodulatory effect on ex vivo stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 50 individuals [26 with psoriasis, 10 with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and 14 healthy controls (HCs)]. Cells were either left untreated or stimulated with PMA plus ionomycin in the presence or absence of delphinidin. Intracellular production of interferon-γ (IFNγ), interleukin-17A (IL-17A), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) was measured flow cytometrically. Delphinidin dose-dependently reduced IFNγT cells from patients and HCs. The mean IFNγ decrease in CD4T subpopulations was 42.5 ± 28% for psoriasis patients, 51.8 ± 21.5% for PsA patients and 49 ± 17% for HCs (p
