Abstract
In recent years, research has intensified in exploring the genetic basis of psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Genome-wide association studies (GWASs), including tools like ImmunoChip, have significantly deepened our understanding of disease mechanisms by pinpointing risk-associated genetic loci. These efforts have elucidated biological pathways involved in PsO pathogenesis, particularly those related to the innate immune system, antigen presentation, and adaptive immune responses. Specific genetic loci, such as TRAF3IP2, REL, and FBXL19, have been identified as having a significant impact on disease development. Interestingly, different genetic variants at the same locus can predispose individuals to either PsO or PsA (e.g., IL23R and deletion of LCE3B and LCE3C), with some variants being uniquely linked to PsA (like HLA B27 on chromosome 6). This article aims to summarize known and new data on the genetics of PsO and PsA, their associated genes, and the involvement of the HLA system and cytokines.

Abstract
Background: Patient engagement with clinicians results in shared decision making and increased adherence to medication. However, in order for strong patient: clinician partnerships to be achieved, communication barriers need to be identified. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the level of understanding of inflammatory arthritis patients and the need for strong patient-partnership in research. Methods: An online anonymous survey was distributed to patients living with inflammatory arthritis which addressed questions about diagnosis, routine tests, medications and how they work, medication adherence, disease flare, heredity, pregnancy, and patient involvement in research. Results: There were 1,873 respondents, 1416 of which had inflammatory arthritis (IA)- rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (65.8%) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (34.2%). They were predominantly female (RA 86%, PsA 85 %), aged 55±13 and 50±12 years. Less than 35% of patients had an understanding of diagnostic tests, what was measured and the implication for disease, with 75.5% also concerned about heredity. There was a high level of understanding of how specific medications treat inflammatory arthritis (72.9%). Adherence was also very high (>87%), with the main reasons for stopping medication without the advice of their clinician, 'feeling better' and 'side effects' however a significant proportion of patients (69.9%) reported a disease-flare following cessation of medication. Patients (31%) were also concerned that inflammatory arthritis reduced their chances of getting pregnant, with only 8% believing arthritis medications were safe to take during pregnancy. Finally, only 9% of patients had ever been asked to participate in a research study. Conclusions: This study demonstrates a need for the development of stronger patient-partnerships with clinicians and researchers in relation to patient education and engagement with research, to create a platform where patients can have meaningful input and involvement in future research studies.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a heterogeneous disease involving multiple potential tissue domains. Most outcome measures used so far in randomized clinical trials do not sufficiently reflect this domain heterogeneity. The concept that pathogenetic mechanisms might vary across tissues within a single disease, underpinning such phenotype diversity, could explain tissue-distinct levels of response to different therapies. In this Review, we discuss the tissue, cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive clinical heterogeneity in PsA phenotypes, and detail existing tissue-based research, including data generated using sophisticated interrogative technologies with single-cell precision. Finally, we discuss how these elements support the need for tissue-based therapy in PsA in the context of existing and new therapeutic modes of action, and the implications for future PsA trial outcomes and design.

Abstract
Diagnosing peripheral spondyloarthritis (pSpA) remains a significant challenge due to the lack of specific disease biomarkers and the overlap with other SpA subtypes, mainly psoriatic arthritis (PsA), which represents a diagnostic challenge particularly in the absence of skin psoriasis (PsAsine psoriase). This narrative review aimed to compare the epidemiology, genetic susceptibility, pathophysiology, classification criteria, disease phenotype and burden, and therapeutic guidelines between patients diagnosed with pSpA and those with PsAsine psoriase,to determine if the two entities should be considered jointly or distinctly. Globally, pSpA appears to be more inclusive compared with PsAsine psoriase. Areas of similarities include age of onset, number of joints involved and prevalence of axial involvement. However, patients with pSpA have a male gender predominance, a higher prevalence of HLA-B27, enthesitis and involvement of large joints of the lower limbs, whereas patients with PsAsine psoriasehave a higher prevalence HLA-Cw6, dactylitis and involvement of hand distal interphalangeal joints. Therefore, the difference between pSpA and PsAsine psoriasegoes beyond semantics. The few dissimilarities should drive scientific efforts to reach a better characterisation of pSpA as an individual disease. Accordingly, randomised clinical trials should target patients with well-defined pSpA to identify effective therapies in this population.

Abstract
Objectives Besides adaptive immunity genes, genetic risk factors for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) include innate immunity loci, which suggests an autoinflammatory disease mechanism, at least in a subset of patients. Here, we aimed at investigating the autoinflammatory genetic background of PsA. Methods A total of 120 patients with PsA visiting the outpatient clinics of the Hannover University hospital underwent targeted next-generation sequencing, searching for variations in genes linked with inborn errors of immunity classified as autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs). Deleteriousness of rare variants was evaluated through in silico analysis. Results We found 45 rare predicted deleterious variants in 37 out of 120 (30.8%) patients with PsA. Relatively common were variants in AP1S3, PLCG2, NOD2 and NLRP12. All 45 variants were monoallelic and 25 of them, identified in 20 out of 120 (16.7%) patients, were localised in genes associated with autosomal dominant (AD) disorders. Detection of those variants is associated with pustular psoriasis or a coexisting inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Conclusions Approximately 30% of patients with PsA harboured at least one variant in a gene associated with an AID, suggesting an autoinflammatory disease mechanism. Detection of variants in genes linked to AD-AIDs may explain extra-articular manifestations of PsA, such as pustular psoriasis and IBD.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory musculoskeletal disease with a chronic, progressive course. Various aspects of PsA, including its clinical features, disease course and response to treatment, are influenced by sociodemographic characteristics of the patient. This includes patient sex, the biological attributes associated with being male or female, and gender, a sociocultural construct that comprises attitudes, traits and behaviours associated with being a man or a woman. An understanding of sex- and gender-related differences in PsA, as well as their underlying mechanisms, is therefore important for individualized care. In this narrative review, the influence of sex and gender on PsA manifestation and course, patient function and quality of life, and their association with comorbidities are described. Sex- and gender-related disparities in response to advanced therapies and their potential underlying mechanisms are delineated. Differences in pathophysiological mechanisms between male and female patients including genetics, immune and hormonal mechanisms are discussed. Finally, fertility and pregnancy outcomes in PsA are outlined. By adopting sex and gender lenses, this review is aimed at highlighting key differences between male and female patients with PsA and uncovering mechanisms underlying these differences, ultimately promoting individualized care of men and women with PsA and informing future research in this area.

Abstract
Objective Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of guselkumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting the interleukin-23p19 subunit, in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) through 1 year. Methods Adults who met ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis, with active disease (≥3 swollen and ≥3 tender joints; C reactive protein ≥0.3 mg/dL) despite standard treatment (31% previously received ≤2 tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi)), were randomised (1:1:1) to guselkumab 100 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W); guselkumab 100 mg at Week0, Week4, then Q8W; or placebo with cross-over to guselkumab 100 mg Q4W at Week24 (PBO→Q4W) through Week48. Clinical efficacy through Week52 (employing non-responder imputation) and adverse events (AEs) through Week60 were evaluated. Results Of 381 treated patients, 90% completed the study. Numerical increases in the proportions of patients achieving ≥20% improvement in ACR criteria (ACR20) were observed post-Week24, reaching 73% (94/128) and 60% (76/127) for Q4W-randomised and Q8W-randomised patients, respectively, by Week52. Proportions of patients achieving ACR50/ACR70/skin responses and minimal/very low disease activity were maintained, as were improvements in physical function and health-related quality of life, through Week52 in guselkumab-randomised patients. Response to guselkumab was maintained in both TNFi-naïve and TNFi-experienced patients. Serious AEs and serious infections occurred in similar proportions of guselkumab Q4W-randomised (3% and 0%) and Q8W-randomised (6% and 2%) patients through Week60, with no new safety concerns versus observations through Week24. No guselkumab-treated patient and two patients receiving placebo died; no study participant developed opportunistic infection or inflammatory bowel disease. Conclusion Guselkumab provided sustained improvement across multiple clinical manifestations of PsA, maintaining a favourable benefit-risk profile, through 1 year regardless of prior TNFi exposure.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is an inflammatory rheumatic disease related to low bone mineral density. Because vitamin D plays an important role in bone metabolism and immune system modulation, the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of polymorphisms in vitamin D receptor genes (VDR) in the development of SpA. In this case-control study, a total of 244 patients with SpA and 197 individuals with no SpA were included. Among the patients, 174 had ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and 66 had psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Genotyping of FokI (rs2228570 C > T), BsmI (rs1544410 C > T), ApaI (rs7975232 A > C), and TaqI (rs731236 T > C) was performed using PCR-RFLP, while genotyping of HLA-B∗27 was performed using PCR-SSP. Serum levels for hydroxy (OH) vitamin D and the clinical activity index of the disease (BASDAI) were also evaluated. SNPStats and OpenEpi software were used for statistical analysis. The ApaI a allele and ApaI a/a genotype were less frequent in PsA compared with controls. The ApaI a/a genotype was associated with a protecting factor for PsA in females, and ApaI A/a was associated with a protecting factor for the disease in HLA-B∗27 positive patients. Notwithstanding, the ApaI a/a genotype was a risk factor for SpA and AS in males. The FokI f/f genotype was associated with a better clinical activity in PsA. When considering the covariates, vitamin D sufficiency, and gender, the FokI F/F genotype was associated with a risk factor in males with SpA and AS compared with females with this same genotype. In conclusion, the ApaI rs7975232 polymorphism was associated with PsA, and the FokI rs2228570 polymorphism was associated with better clinical PsA activity. ApaI and FokI were associated with SpA and AS when considering gender and vitamin D sufficiency.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) are a heterogeneous group of inflammatory chronic diseases characterized by sharing common pathogenic, clinical and radiologic features. The aim of this review is to support clinicians in understanding and managing this complex disease, from pathogenesis to therapeutic targets, through a systematic review of the current literature in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and checklist. HLA-B27 has been found to be associated with axial involvement either in SA and in PsA patients: it might be involved through presentation of an "arthritogenic peptide" to autoreactive CD8+ T cells or might accumulate in misfolded form and induce production pro-inflammatory cytokines by binding to several innate immune receptors. This genetic background in combination with mechanical stress leads to the activation of both innate and acquired immune responses as well as a possible role of autoimmunity in SpA pathogenesis. The release of IL-23 and IL-17 is relevant for their systemic and local effect on bone, inducing the activation of osteoclasts. Thus, the regulatory role of IL-17 on fibroblasts, osteoblasts and chondrocytes has an impact in both synovial inflammation and joint destruction. Innovative therapies targeting IL-12/23 and IL-17 and the use of small targeted synthetic molecules, as JAK-inhibitors, proved to be effective in SpA patients representing an alternative strategy to TNF-inhibitors.

Abstract
Psoriasis (PS) is a chronic skin inflammation. Up to 30% of the patients with PS develop psoriatic arthritis (PsA), a condition characterized by inflammatory arthritis that affects joints or entheses. Although there is mounting evidence for a critical role of interleukin-23 (IL-23) signaling in the pathogenesis of both PS and PsA, it remains unclear whether IL-23-induced skin inflammation drives joint disease. Here, we show that mice expressing increased levels of IL-23 in the skin (K23 mice) develop a PS-like disease that is characterized by acanthosis, parakeratosis, hyperkeratosis, and inflammatory infiltrates in the dermis. Skin disease preceded development of PsA, including enthesitis, dactylitis, and bone destruction. The development of enthesitis and dactylitis was not due to high circulating levels of IL-23, as transgenic animals and controls had similar levels of this cytokine in circulation. IL-22, a downstream cytokine of IL-23, was highly increased in the serum of K23 mice. Although IL-22 deficiency did not affect skin disease development, IL-22 deficiency aggravated the PsA-like disease in K23 mice. Our results demonstrate a central role for skin expressed IL-23 in the initiation of PS and on pathogenic processes leading to PsA.

Abstract
Peripheral spondyloarthritis (pSpA) refers to a number of seemingly different spondyloarthritis subsets in which psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is the most common, and symptoms of arthritis, enthesitis or dactylitis predominate the clinical presentation. Although formal classification criteria for pSpA have been introduced in 2011, only a minority of epidemiological and clinical studies addressed this clinical entity as a separate disease. Moreover, research on outcome measures and treatment modalities in pSpA has been mainly focused on PsA. Subsequently, all biological treatments are off-label in patients with non-psoriatic pSpA. Its neglected status has important implications for clinical practice since the emerging group of early-diagnosed non-psoriatic pSpA patients remains poorly characterised and lacks specific treatment recommendations. This review summarises what is currently known regarding pSpA in terms of epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Arthritis is inflammation of the joints accompanied by osteochondral destruction. It can take many forms, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. These diseases share one commonality—osteochondral destruction based on inflammation. The background includes a close interaction between osseous tissues and immune cells through various inflammatory cytokines. However, the tissues and cytokines that play major roles are different in each disease, and as a result, the mechanism of osteochondral destruction also differs. In recent years, there have been many findings regarding not only extracellular signaling pathways but also intracellular signaling pathways. In particular, we anticipate that the intracellular signals of osteoclasts, which play a central role in bone destruction, will become novel therapeutic targets. In this review, we have summarized the pathology of arthritis and the latest findings on the mechanism of osteochondral destruction, as well as present and future therapeutic strategies for these targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic skin and joint condition that considerably affects patient quality of life. Several studies have demonstrated different associations of genetic polymorphisms in the pathogenic process of PsA. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to estimate the effect of polymorphisms in the cytokines TNF, IL12B, IL23A, and IL23R on PsA risk. METHODS We screened 1,097 abstracts and identified 14 relevant studies published between January 2007 and December 2017. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases. Meta-analyses were performed for the comparisons of alleles and multiple genetic models. RESULTS Among the cytokines studied, we found 17 polymorphisms that were the most investigated. The association to PsA was observed in the presence of polymorphisms: TNF-238 G > A (rs361525), -308 G > A (rs1800629), and -857 C > T (rs1799724); IL12B C > G (rs6887695) and A > C (rs3212227); IL23A A > G (rs2066808) and IL23R G > A (rs11209026). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that these variant cytokine genes may strongly influence the immunological response of PsA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is associated with a number of cardiovascular (CV) comorbidities. We examined the association of SpA disease duration and delay in diagnosis with CV-related conditions. METHODS Using data from the COMOSPA study, the associations between SpA disease duration and CV-related conditions were evaluated in univariable and multivariable logistic regression models. Each model examined 1 CV-related factor as dependent and "SpA disease duration" as a predictor, adjusted for relevant confounders. RESULTS Data from 3923 subjects (median SpA disease duration 5.1 yrs, interquartile range 1.3-11.8 yrs) were available for analysis. The main CV-related conditions were hypertension (HTN; 22.4%), ischemic heart disease (2.6%), stroke (1.3%), and diabetes mellitus (5.5%). HTN was associated with SpA disease duration in both univariable and multivariable analysis, with an OR of 1.129 (95% CI 1.072-1.189; p < 0.001) for each 5-year increase in SpA disease duration. Other factors associated with HTN were age, male sex, current body mass index, ever steroid therapy, and ever synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug therapy, but not nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID). In subgroup analysis, the strongest association of HTN and disease duration was seen in subjects with the axial-only SpA phenotype (OR 1.202, 95% CI 1.053-1.372) but not in those with peripheral-only SpA (OR 0.902, 95% CI 0.760-1.070). The other CV conditions were not associated with SpA disease duration. CONCLUSION Duration of SpA disease in the ASAS-COMOSPA cohort is associated with higher odds of HTN, particularly in those with axial disease, but not with other CV-related conditions. The association with HTN does not appear to be related to NSAID exposure.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a clinically heterogeneous form of progressive inflammatory arthritis that affects up to 30% of patients with psoriasis. The rapid rate of progression associated with PsA makes early-disease diagnosis and treatment crucial to patients' quality of life and long-term health. With the aim of providing clinical guidance to physician assistants and nurse practitioners, this article gives an overview of the different PsA clinical domains, including peripheral arthritis, axial disease, enthesitis, dactylitis, skin disease, and nail dystrophy, which should be considered as part of diagnosis and treatment strategies. The efficacy of different therapies across these PsA domains is reviewed within the context of current PsA treatment guidelines while considering more recent data on newly approved therapies for PsA.Funding: Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corp., East Hanover, NJ, USA.

Abstract
Human skin cells recognize the presence of the skin microbiome through pathogen recognition receptors. Epidermal keratinocytes are known to activate toll-like receptors (TLRs) 2 and 4 in response to the commensal Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes, formerly known as Propionibacterium acnes) bacterium and subsequently to induce innate immune and inflammatory events. These events may lead to the appearance of macroscopic inflammatory acne lesions in puberty: comedos, papules and, pustules. Healthy skin does not exhibit inflammation or skin lesions, even in the continuous presence of the same microbes. As the molecular mechanism for this duality is still unclear, we aimed to identify factors and mechanisms that control the innate immune response to C. acnes in keratinocytes using a human immortalized keratinocyte cell line, HPV-KER, normal human keratinocytes (NHEK) and an organotypic skin model (OSM). TNIP1, a negative regulator of the NF-κB signaling pathway, was found to be expressed in HPV-KER cells, and its expression was rapidly induced in response to C. acnes treatment, which was confirmed in NHEK cells and OSMs. Expression changes were not dependent on the C. acnes strain. However, we found that the extent of expression was dependent on C. acnes dose. Bacterial-induced changes in TNIP1 expression were regulated by signaling pathways involving NF-κB, p38, MAPKK and JNK. Experimental modification of TNIP1 levels affected constitutive and C. acnes-induced NF-κB promoter activities and subsequent inflammatory cytokine and chemokine mRNA and protein levels. These results suggest an important role for this negative regulator in the control of bacterially induced TLR signaling pathways in keratinocytes. We showed that all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induced elevated TNIP1 expression in HPV-KER cells and also in OSMs, where TNIP1 levels increased throughout the epidermis. ATRA also reduced constitutive and bacterium-induced levels of TNFα, CCL5 and TLR2, while simultaneously increasing CXCL8 and TLR4 expression. Based on these findings, we propose that ATRA may exhibit dual effects in acne therapy by both affecting the expression of the negative regulator TNIP1 and attenuating TLR2-induced inflammation. Overall, TNIP1, as a possible regulator of C. acnes-induced innate immune and inflammatory events in keratinocytes, may play important roles in the maintenance of epidermal homeostasis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To introduce a novel preclinical animal model of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in R26Stat3Cstopfl/fl CD4Cre mice, and to investigate the role of Th17 cytokines in the disease pathogenesis. METHODS We characterized a novel murine model of Th17-driven cutaneous and synovio-entheseal disease directed by T cell-specific expression of a hyperactive Stat3 allele. By crossing R26Stat3Cstopfl/fl CD4Cre mice onto an interleukin-22 (IL-22)-knockout background or treating the mice with a neutralizing antibody against IL-17, we interrogated how these Th17 cytokines could contribute to the pathogenesis of PsA. RESULTS R26Stat3Cstopfl/fl CD4Cre mice developed acanthosis, hyperkeratosis, and parakeratosis of the skin, as well as enthesitis/tendinitis and periarticular bone erosion in different joints, accompanied by osteopenia. T cell-specific expression of a hyperactive Stat3C allele was found to drive the augmented Th17 response in these animals. Careful characterization of the mouse bone marrow revealed an increase in osteoclast progenitor (OCP) and RANKL-producing cells, which contributed to the osteopenia phenotype observed in the mutant animals. Abrogation of the Th17 cytokines IL-17 or IL-22 improved both the skin and bone phenotype in R26Stat3Cstopfl/fl CD4Cre mice, revealing a central role of Th17 cells in the regulation of OCP and RANKL expression on stromal cells. CONCLUSION Perturbation of the IL-23/Th17 axis instigates Th17-mediated inflammation in R26Stat3Cstopfl/fl CD4Cre mice, leading to cutaneous and synovio-entheseal inflammation and bone pathologic features highly reminiscent of human PsA. Both IL-17A and IL-22 produced by Th17 cells appear to play critical roles in promoting the cutaneous and musculoskeletal inflammation that characterizes PsA.

[PMID: 29579081 PMCID: PMC5868803 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0194693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2017] [Accepted: 03/07/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives We investigated whether polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of TNFA, or in the autoinflammatory TNFRSF1A and MEFV genes, concur with HLA-B27 in enhancing the risk of Spondyloarthritis (SpA) and/or in predicting the response to anti-TNFα treatment. Methods 373 controls and 137 SpA (82 with Psoriatic Arthritis-PsA and 55 with Ankylosing Spondylitis- AS; 98/137 under TNFα inhibitor therapy) from the Veneto Region (Italy) were studied. TNFA polymorphisms (-1031T>C;-857C>T;-376G>A;-308G>A;-238G>A) and HLA-B27 were assayed by RT-PCR. Direct sequencing of MEFV (exons 2,3,5 and 10) and TNFRSF1A (exons 2,3,4 and 6) genes were performed. Results HLA-B27 was associated with AS (χ2 = 120.1; p = 0.000). Only the TNFA -1031T>C was singly associated with SpA, and the haplotype C/G, resulting from -1031T>C/-308G>A combination, was significantly associated with a reduced risk of SpA (OR: 0.67, CI: 0.46–0.97; p = 0.035). Two SNPs were identified in TNFRSF1A, the R92Q (Minor allele frequency-MAF = 0.034) and c.625+10A>G (MAF = 0.479). None of them was associated with SpA (p>0.05). The TNFRSF1A c.625+10 G allele was associated with late response to anti-TNFα therapy (p = 0.031). Twenty-one SNPs were identified in MEFV gene, 10 with a known potential functional significance. Variant alleles were extremely rare in our population (MAF<0.025) except for R202Q (MAF = 0.27). None was associated with SpA diagnosis (p>0.05). Conclusion TNFRSF1A and MEFV gene SNPs are not associated with SpA in the North-East of Italy. AS risk appears to depend not only on HLA-B27, but also on the protective TNFA haplotype -1031C/-308G. The TNFRSF1A c.625+10A>G impacts on the response to anti-TNFα therapy.

Abstract
Purpose Several studies have suggested that an HLA-Cw6+ allele can predict an improved outcome of treatment in psoriasis patients. The aim of the study was to assess whether the published association between HLA-Cw6 allele carriers and response to ustekinumab has the potential to impact treatment decisions. Patients and methods Differences in Psoriasis Activity and Severity Index 50, 75, and 90; Nail Psoriasis Severity Index; and Dermatology Life Quality Index at 16 weeks were evaluated between HLA-Cw6 allele carriers vs. non-carriers. Thirty patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis under treatment with ustekinumab were included in our study. Results There was no difference between the two groups with respect to Psoriasis Activity and Severity Index 50, 75, and 90 or in terms of change in Nail Psoriasis Severity Index or Dermatology Life Quality Index. Conclusion In our retrospectively analyzed cohort, we could not detect the previously reported better response in HLA-Cw6+ vs. HLA-Cw6- patients.

Abstract
To date, the genes associated with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) are principally involved in inflammation, immune response and epidermal differentiation, without any information about the relationship between disease and bone metabolism genes. Our work was focused on 5q31 locus, which contains several genetic variants significantly associated with PsA. The study involved 1526 subjects (500 PsA, 426 PsV, 600 controls). The region was evaluated by selecting and genotyping the SNPs of interest by Real Time PCR and direct sequencing. The results were subjected to biostatistic and bioinformatic analysis. The case-control study highlighted a significant association between KIF3A/IL-4 and PsA, but not with PsV (Psoriasis Vulgaris) patients. In addition, the haplotype analysis revealed two haplotypes significantly associated with PsA susceptibility. The Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) study showed the presence of a specific block in high LD within 132,692,628-132,737,638 bp of 5q31, giving additional evidence of specific association of the 5q31 region in PsA patients. Moreover, KIF3A expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry assays which showed a marked and significant difference of KIF3A expression between pathological and normal tissues. Our analysis described KIF3A and IL-4 as novel susceptibility genes for PsA, suggesting a clear implication of bone metabolism genes in the disease etiopathogenesis.

Abstract
TNF-blocking biologics have revolutionized the care of patients with spondyloarthritis, a group of clinically overlapping conditions that includes ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis. However, incomplete response rates speak to the need for alternative therapeutic approaches. Over the last decade, animal models, genetics, and translational studies have implicated the excessive production of a pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-17 (IL-17) along with another IL-17-promoting cytokine IL-23 in the pathogenesis of spondyloarthritis. Genome-wide studies identified disease associations with multiple genes regulating IL-23/IL-17 immune pathway activity. Direct examination of the patient blood and tissues revealed excessive IL-17 and IL-23 production by diverse cell types. Murine models both underscored the sufficiency of excess IL-23 in driving disease phenotype and predicted utility in IL-23/IL-17 pathway blockade. However, the clinical efficacy of agents such as secukinumab and ustekinumab, which block IL-17 and IL-23/IL-12 respectively, provided exciting proof of concept.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the pathophysiology, co-morbidities, and therapeutic options for psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in order to further understand the similarities and differences in treatment paradigms in the management of each disease. New targets for individualized therapeutic decisions are also identified with the aim of improving therapeutic outcome and reducing toxicity. SEARCH STRATEGY Using the PubMed database, we searched literature published from 2000 to 2015 using combinations of the key words "psoriasis," "psoriatic arthritis," "rheumatoid arthritis," "pathogenesis," "immunomodulation," and "treatment." INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION CRITERIA This was a non-systematic review and there were no formal inclusion and exclusion criteria. DATA EXTRACTION Abstracts identified in the search were screened for relevance and articles considered appropriate evaluated further. References within these selected articles were also screened. Information was extracted from 198 articles for inclusion in this report. DATA SYNTHESIS There was no formal data synthesis. Articles were reviewed and summarized according to disease area (psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis). HEADLINE RESULTS The pathophysiology of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis involves chronic inflammation mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines. Dysfunction in integrated signaling pathways affecting different constituents of the immune system result in varying clinical features in the three diseases. Co-morbidities, including cardiovascular disease, malignancies, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease are increased. Increased understanding of the immunopathogenesis allowed development of targeted treatments; however, despite a variety of potentially predictive genetic, protein and cellular biomarkers, there is still significant unmet need in these three inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
The F-box proteins (FBPs) in esophageal tumorigenesis are pivotal as they govern a broad array of basic physiological responses including cell growth, cell death and DNA damage repair. Esophageal cancer (EC) is a common and highly aggressive cancer worldwide. Aberrant stabilization of crucial proteins participates in esophageal tumorigenesis. Recently, growing evidence has shown that FBPs play a critical role in oncogenesis, invasion, metastasis and prognosis assessment of EC. In this review we summarized published data on the roles of known FBPs, their respective substrates and the key signaling pathways, in the development of EC, aiming to uncover new ways for the rational design of targeted therapies in EC.
