Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Psoriasis susceptibility locus 4 (PSORS4) is a susceptibility locus for psoriasis vulgaris (PsV), a common inflammatory, hyperproliferative skin disorder. Recently, a deletion of 2 late cornified envelope (LCE) genes within epidermal differentiation complex on chromosome 1 was shown to be enriched in 1426 patients with PsV, suggesting compromised barrier function in deletion carriers. This genetic association was subsequently confirmed in a German cohort. METHODS:In order to investigate whether this variant also predisposes to psoriatic arthritis (PsA), this deletion and 3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in strong linkage disequilibrium with it were genotyped in a case-control cohort of 650 patients and 937 control individuals of German origin. RESULTS:LCE deletion frequency did not significantly differ between patients with PsA and controls (65.0% vs 65.5%). Similarly, no evidence for association to the three SNPs was observed. DISCUSSION:This is the first non-human leucocyte antigen (HLA) risk factor predisposing only to skin type of psoriasis, supporting the concept of partially overlapping but different aetiological factors underlying skin and joint manifestations.
