Tumour necrosis factor-alpha polymorphism and the HLA-Cw*0602 allele in psoriatic arthritis.
OBJECTIVES To investigate polymorphisms in the genes for tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFA), interleukin 10 (IL10) and tumour necrosis factor receptor II (TNFRII) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and their relationship to the HLA-Cw*0602 allele and to the ages at onset of psoriasis and arthritis and the pattern of joint involvement.

Psoriasis patients with moderate to severe disease often present with depression and insomnia. Treatment targeting both psoriasis and psychological comorbidities is needed to improve the quality of life of these patients.In this nationwide cohort study, a total of 980 patients with psoriatic arthritis or psoriasis who had received nonbiological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and biologic...
متن کاملTumour necrosis factor (TNF) in psoriatic arthritis: pathophysiology and treatment with TNF inhibitors.
High levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including tumour necrosis factor (TNF), have been detected in psoriatic skin lesions and joints of patients with the inflammatory disease. Early results of treatment of psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis with TNF neutralising agents are encouraging, but whether these agents will be able to improve long term outcomes, such as disability, is not yet known.
متن کاملEvaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
متن کاملExacerbation of psoriatic skin lesions in patients with psoriatic arthritis receiving anti-tumour necrosis factor-alpha therapy: description of 3 cases and review of the literature.
The use of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) blockade to treat patients with both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is now well established. However, paradoxical case reports of new-onset or exacerbation of psoriasis during all TNF-alpha blockers therapy have been published. We now review the literature and add a description of three PsA patients whose arthritis had responded well ...
