Exploring the Diverse Immune and Genetic Landscape of Psoriatic Arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is characterized by delays in diagnosis and modest effect of treatment in terms of joint response. An understanding of molecular pathomechanisms may aid in developing diagnostic and prognostic models. Genetic susceptibility (e.g., HLA class I genes, IL-23-related genes) can...

description | Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is characterized by delays in diagnosis and modest effect of treatment in terms of joint response. An understanding of molecular pathomechanisms may aid in developing diagnostic and prognostic models. Genetic susceptibility (e.g., HLA class I genes, IL-23-related genes) can be responsible for the pattern of psoriatic manifestations and affinity for tissue involvement. Gene expression analysis indicates an inflammatory profile that is distinct for PsA, but disparate across tissues. This has clinical implications, as for example, dual blockade of IL-17A and IL-17F can lead to superior clinical effects if there is differential expression of IL-17 receptors in tissues. Structural and functional impairment of barrier tissue, including host-microbiome interactions, may be the source of immune activation. Interplay between different cell populations of innate and adaptive immunity is emerging, potentially providing a link between the transition of skin-to-joint disease. Th17 subsets, IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-23 are crucial in PsA pathogenesis, with both clinical and experimental evidence suggesting a differential molecular landscape in cutaneous and articular compartments. |
