Regulation of Notch1 and Foxp1 by MiR-34a in psoriasis vulgaris

Int. j. morphol; 40 (3), 2022
SUMMARY: This study is to investigate the regulation of Notch1 and Foxp1 by miR-34a in the development of psoriasis vulgaris. RT-PCR was used to compare the levels of miR-34a in the skin lesions of 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 20 normal skin tissues. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the...

Blood microRNA expressions in patients with mild to moderate psoriasis and the relationship between microRNAs and psoriasis activity

An. bras. dermatol; 95 (6), 2020
Abstract Background: In recent studies, microRNAs (mi-RNAs) have been shown to play an important role in psoriasis pathogenesis. However, studies evaluating mi-RNAs in the blood of psoriasis patients including a large number of mi-RNA panels are scarce. Objective: The authors aimed to assess mi-RNA exp...

Association of CYP2J2 polymorphism with susceptibility to psoriasis in Turkish population: a case-control study

An. bras. dermatol; 95 (1), 2020
Abstract Background: Cytochrome P450 2J2 is mostly expressed in extrahepatic tissues; it metabolizes arachidonic acid to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, with various cardio protective and anti-inflammatory effects. CYP2J2 polymorphism has been identified as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, but its ...

Lack of association between mutation in IL36RN and palmoplantar pustular psoriasis in Chinese patients

An. bras. dermatol; 94 (6), 2019
Abstract Background: Palmoplantar pustulosis is considered to be a localized pustular psoriasis confined to the palms and soles. Mutation of the IL36RN gene, encoding interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra), is associated with generalized pustular psoriasis, but IL36RN mutations in Chinese palmopla...

The role of GNLY gene polymorphisms in psoriasis pathogenesis

An. bras. dermatol; 94 (2), 2019
Abstract BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disorder that involves complex pathogenic interactions between the innate and adaptive immune systems. The most accepted mechanism in the etiopathogenesis of psoriasis is the induction of inflammation with keratinocyte hyperproliferation. Granuly...

Prevalence and heritability of psoriasis and benign migratory glossitis in one Brazilian population

An. bras. dermatol; 92 (6), 2017
Abstract: Background: An oral condition associated to psoriasis is benign migratory glossitis. The review of the literature does not show any publication about heritability in both soriasis and benign migratory glossitis and prevalence of psoriasis in the Brazilian population. Objective: This research ...

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism in psoriasis in southern Turkey

An. bras. dermatol; 91 (5), 2016
Abstract: Background: Psoriasis is a multigenic and multifactorial dermatological disease linked to cardiovascular diseases. Increased levels of homocysteine in patients with psoriasis have been demonstrated in many studies. The most frequently investigated genetic defect that plays a role in homocystei...

Geographic tongue and psoriasis: clinical, histopathological, immunohistochemical and genetic correlation - a literature review

An. bras. dermatol; 91 (4), 2016
Abstract: Geographic tongue is a chronic, inflammatory, and immune-mediated oral lesion of unknown etiology. It is characterized by serpiginous white areas around the atrophic mucosa, which alternation between activity, remission and reactivation at various locations gave the names benign migratory gloss...
