Gao S, Song H. Differences between psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis in multi-omics. Arch Dermatol Res 2024; 316:217. [PMID: 38787526 DOI: 10.1007/s00403-024-03018-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
We aim to systemically review the genomics, transcriptomics, epigenetics, proteomics, metabonomics and microbiota of psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis, illustrating the differences of these two diseases, broadening our understanding of the pathogenesis of them and providing important clues for valuable biomarkers of earlier diagnosis and treatments. To our knowledge, this is the first study that combine all omics studies from genomics to microbiota and may serve as a reference for future studies to identify the key underlying pathways in psoriatic arthritis.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a highly prevalent chronic disease associated with a substantial social and economic burden. Oxeiptosis is a programmed cell death that occurs when cells are in a state of high oxidative stress, which has a potent anti-inflammatory effect. However, there is still no research on oxeiptosis in psoriasis, and the agonists or antagonists of oxeiptosis remain an unclear field. Here, we found that oxeiptosis of keratinocytes was inhibited in psoriasis lesions. KEAP1, as the upstream molecular component of oxeiptosis, is highly expressed in psoriasis lesions. Knockdown of KEAP1 in HaCaT cells caused oxeiptosis in the condition of M5 cocktail stimulation. Next, we found that the cell-permeable derivative of itaconate, 4-octylitaconate (OI) promoted oxeiptosis of keratinocytes by inhibiting KEAP1 and then activating PGAM5 which are two upstream molecular components of oxeiptosis. At the same time, OI can reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokines induced by M5 cocktail stimulation in vitro. Similarly, we found that OI can alleviate IMQ-induced psoriatic lesions in mice and downregulate the levels of inflammatory cytokines in psoriatic lesions. In summary, our findings suggest that oxeiptosis of keratinocytes was inhibited in psoriasis and OI can significantly inhibit inflammation and alleviate psoriasis as an agonist of oxeiptosis, indicating that oxeiptosis may be involved in regulating the progression of psoriasis, which may provide new therapeutic targets for psoriasis treatment.

Abstract
Achieving a good outcome for a person with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) is made difficult by late diagnosis, heterogenous clinical disease expression and in many cases, failure to adequately suppress inflammatory disease features. Single-centre studies have certainly contributed to our understanding of disease pathogenesis, but to adequately address the major areas of unmet need, multi-partner, collaborative research programmes are now required. HIPPOCRATES is a 5-year, Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) programme which includes 17 European academic centres experienced in PsA research, 5 pharmaceutical industry partners, 3 small-/medium-sized industry partners and 2 patient-representative organizations. In this review, the ambitious programme of work to be undertaken by HIPPOCRATES is outlined and common approaches and challenges are identified. It is expected that, when completed, the results will ultimately allow for changes in the approaches to diagnosing, managing and treating PsA allowing for better short-term and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Background Numerous investigations have revealed the interplay between gut microbiota (GM) and psoriasis (Ps) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). However, the causal relationship between them remains unknown. Methods We curated a collection of genetic variants (P < 1 × 10-5) associated with GM (n = 18 340) derived from the MiBioGen study. To explore the intricate relationship between GM and Ps as well as PsA, we harnessed the comprehensive resources of the FinnGen database, encompassing a vast cohort of individuals, including 4510 Ps cases and 212 242 controls and 1637 PsA cases and 212 242 controls. Mendelian randomization (MR) was used, including an inverse variance weighting method, followed by a sensitivity analysis to verify the robustness of the results. Results For Ps, some bacterial taxa, including Lactococcus, Ruminiclostridium 5, and Eubacterium fissicatena, were identified as risk factors; but Odoribacter demonstrated a protective effect against Ps. In the case of PsA, Lactococcus, Verrucomicrobiales, Akkermansia, Coprococcus 1, and Verrucomicrobiaceae were identified as risk factors; Odoribacter and Rikenellaceae exhibited a protective effect against the development of PsA. Conclusion Our study establishes a causal link between the GM and Ps and PsA. These findings provide insights into the underlying mechanisms and suggest potential therapeutic targets.

The role of ultrasound in screening subclinical psoriatic arthritis in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. Eur Radiol 2023; 33:3943-3953. [PMID: 36853346 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-09493-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify patients in the subclinical psoriatic arthritis (Sub-PsA) phase by ultrasound (US) and provide a solution to screen them. METHODS A total of 490 participants with moderate-to-severe psoriasis were evaluated. Among them, 384 participants without arthritis symptoms were enrolled into the silent psoriasis group and 106 participants with arthritis symptoms, called prodromal/active PsA phase, were enrolled into the clinical PsA group. Another 80 non-psoriasis participants were enrolled into the control group. Each participant received clinical assessments and US examinations of 60 joints, 38 tendons, and 40 entheses. We compared the incidences of synovio-enthesitis, synovitis, tenosynovitis, erosion, and dactylitis detected on US among the three groups. Subsequently, on the basis of significant US findings, we distinguished Sub-PsA from psoriasis alone (PsO) in the silent psoriasis group and analyzed the clinical characteristics, mainly including basic clinical characteristics, body surface area (BSA), and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score. RESULTS Only synovio-enthesitis significantly differed between the control group and the silent psoriasis group (1.3% vs. 16.1%, p < 0.001). The knee was the most commonly involved site of synovio-enthesitis (79.0%). Taking synovio-enthesitis as the standard, 16.1% of silent psoriasis participants and 12.7% of all psoriasis participants were in the Sub-PsA phase. Furthermore, there were no differences in BSA and PASI among the three phases of PsO, Sub-PsA, and prodromal/active PsA. CONCLUSIONS Since the psoriasis patients in Sub-PsA phase was as high as 12.7% in all patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis, US-detected synovio-enthesitis was recommended routinely for screening them regardless of arthritis symptoms, especially in the lower limbs. KEY POINTS • Synovio-enthesitis on ultrasound was significantly associated with subclinical psoriatic arthritis, especially in the lower limbs. • Routine ultrasound evaluation could help screen psoriasis patients in the subclinical psoriatic arthritis phase, which was as high as 12.7% in all psoriasis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases, as components of the proteolytic system, are deemed to be implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of several rheumatic diseases. Their role in spondyloarthritis has been investigated by several studies. OBJECTIVE This article aims to review and summarize the current knowledge related to metalloproteinases in patients with spondyloarthritis. METHODS To examine the association between matrix metalloproteinases and spondyloarthritis, we conducted a narrative review using a literature search in SCOPUS for English-language sources. The search included studies published from the database inception to December 2020. RESULTS A total number of 74 articles were included. It was found that levels of matrix metalloproteinases 3 were higher in radiographic axial spondyloarthritis patients and seemed to play a role in the progression of joint damage. The levels of matrix metalloproteinases 1, 2, and 9 were upregulated in psoriatic arthritis patients compared to psoriasis and could identify psoriasis patients who would develop rheumatic manifestations. The levels of matrix metalloproteinases correlated significantly with disease activity in ankylosing spondylitis and decreased upon treatment with Tumor Necrosis Factor inhibitors (TNFi). CONCLUSION Excessive matrix metalloproteinases activity is associated with articular destruction. Their levels can reflect disease activity, structural damage, and response to TNFi in patients with spondyloarthritis. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Introduction Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that frequently develops in patients with psoriasis (PsO) but can also occur spontaneously. As a result, PsA diagnosis and treatment is commonly delayed, or even missed outright due to the manifold of clinical presentations that patients often experience. This inevitably results in progressive articular damage to axial and peripheral joints and entheses. As such, patients with PsA frequently experience reduced expectancy and quality of life due to disability. More recently, research has aimed to improve PsA diagnosis and prognosis by identifying novel disease biomarkers. Methods Here, we conducted a systematic review of the published literature on candidate biomarkers for PsA diagnosis and prognosis in MEDLINE(Pubmed), EMBase and the Cochrane library with the goal to identify clinically applicable PsA biomarkers. Meta-analyses were performed when a diagnostic bone and cartilage turnover biomarker was reported in 2 or moredifferent cohorts of PsA and control. Results We identified 1444 publications and 124 studies met eligibility criteria. We highlighted bone and cartilage turnover biomarkers, genetic markers, and autoantibodies used for diagnostic purposes of PsA, as well as acute phase reactant markers and bone and cartilage turnover biomarkers for activity or prognostic severity purposes. Serum cartilage oligometrix metalloproteinase levels were significantly increased in the PsA sera compared to Healthy Control (HC) with a standardized mean difference (SMD) of 2.305 (95%CI 0.795-3.816, p=0.003) and compared to osteoarthritis (OA) with a SMD of 0.783 (95%CI 0.015-1.551, p=0.046). The pooled serum MMP-3 levels were significantly higher in PsA patients than in PsO patients with a SMD of 0.419 (95%CI 0.119-0.719; p=0.006), but no significant difference was highlighted when PsA were compared to HC. While we did not identify any new genetic biomarkers that would be useful in the diagnosis of PsA, recent data with autoantibodies appear to be promising in diagnosis, but no replication studies have been published. Conclusion In summary, no specific diagnostic biomarkers for PsA were identified and further studies are needed to assess the performance of potential biomarkers that can distinguish PsA from OA and other chronic inflammatory diseases.

The Presence of Psoriasis, Metabolic Syndrome and Their Combination Increases the Serum Levels of CRP and CD5L but Not sCD200R1 and sTLR2 in Participants. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12121965. [PMID: 36556186 PMCID: PMC9783034 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12121965] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are chronic inflammatory conditions associated with the dysregulation of immune system reactivity. The inflammatory processes of both diseases have not yet been fully characterized, and the evaluation of proteins/markers that could be involved in their pathogenesis is of great importance. We selected four markers: CRP, sCD200R1, CD5L, and sTLR2; in particular, sCDR2001 has not yet been measured in the context of psoriasis and metabolic syndrome. Material and methods: In the study, 64 controls and 43 patients with psoriasis with or without a metabolic syndrome were enrolled. The levels of selected markers were measured using ELISA kits. Results: CRP levels were significantly higher in psoriasis patients, especially in the subgroup of patients with MetS compared to nonMetS patients (p < 0.01). sCD200R1 and sTLR2 were not significantly different between groups and subgroups; however, CD200R1 levels were slightly higher in both control groups compared to both groups of patients. CD5L levels were significantly higher in patients with MetS compared to nonMets patients (p < 0.02). We also evaluated the correlations between parameters in controls and patients’ groups, as well as in subgroups. Correlations between BMI and CRP were found in all groups and subgroups. Other correlations were group- and subgroup-specific. For example, in the patients’ group, CD5L correlated with sCD200R1 (p < 0.05) and in MetS controls, with age (p < 0.03). Conclusion: The results show that the presence of systemic inflammation associated with psoriasis and metabolic syndrome and their combination alters the expression of specific molecules, especially CRP and CD5L, which were significantly increased in patients with psoriasis and a metabolic syndrome compared to controls without metabolic syndromes. Correlations between CRP and BMI in all groups suggest that overweight and obesity increase the intensity of inflammation and potentiate CD5L expression. In contrast, levels of molecules that may limit inflammation were not increased in psoriasis and metabolic syndrome subjects (they were non-significantly lower compared with healthy controls), which may reflect the chronic nature of both diseases and the exhaustion of inhibitory mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of those at risk of more severe psoriasis and/or associated morbidities offers opportunity for early intervention, reduced disease burden and more cost-effective healthcare. Prognostic biomarkers of disease progression have thus been the focus of intense research, but none are part of routine practice. OBJECTIVES To identify and catalogue candidate biomarkers of disease progression in psoriasis for the translational research community. METHODS A systematic search of CENTRAL, Embase, LILACS and MEDLINE was performed for relevant articles published between 1990 and December 2021. Eligibility criteria were studies involving patients with psoriasis (any age, n ≥ 50) reporting biomarkers associated with disease progression. The main outcomes were any measure of skin severity or any prespecified psoriasis comorbidity. Data were extracted by one reviewer and checked by a second; studies meeting minimal quality criteria (longitudinal design and/or use of methods to control for confounding) were formally assessed for bias. Candidate biomarkers were identified by an expert multistakeholder group using a majority voting consensus exercise, and mapped to relevant cellular and molecular pathways. RESULTS Of 181 included studies, most investigated genomic or proteomic biomarkers associated with disease severity (n = 145) or psoriatic arthritis (n = 30). Methodological and reporting limitations compromised interpretation of findings, most notably a lack of longitudinal studies, and inadequate control for key prognostic factors. The following candidate biomarkers with future potential utility were identified for predicting disease severity: LCE3D, interleukin (IL)23R, IL23A, NFKBIL1 loci, HLA-C*06:02 (genomic), IL-17A, IgG aHDL, GlycA, I-FABP and kallikrein 8 (proteomic), tyramine (metabolomic); psoriatic arthritis: HLA-C*06:02, HLA-B*27, HLA-B*38, HLA-B*08, and variation at the IL23R and IL13 loci (genomic); IL-17A, CXCL10, Mac-2 binding protein, integrin b5, matrix metalloproteinase-3 and macrophage-colony stimulating factor (proteomic) and tyramine and mucic acid (metabolomic); and type 2 diabetes mellitus: variation in IL12B and IL23R loci (genomic). No biomarkers were supported by sufficient evidence for clinical use without further validation. CONCLUSIONS This review provides a comprehensive catalogue of investigated biomarkers of disease progression in psoriasis. Future studies must address the common methodological limitations identified herein to expedite discovery and validation of biomarkers for clinical use. What is already known about this topic? The current treatment paradigm in psoriasis is reactive. There is a need to develop effective risk-stratified management approaches that can proactively attenuate the substantial burden of disease. Prognostic biomarkers of disease progression have therefore been the focus of intense research. What does this study add? This review is the first to scope, collate and catalogue research investigating biomarkers of disease progression in psoriasis. The review identifies potentially promising candidate biomarkers for further investigation and highlights common important limitations that should be considered when designing and conducting future studies in this area.

Abstract
This review highlights the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying psoriatic inflammation with an emphasis on recent developments which may impact on treatment approaches for this chronic disease. We consider both the skin and the musculoskeletal compartment and how different manifestations of psoriatic inflammation are linked. This review brings a focus to the importance of inflammatory feedback loops that exist in the initiation and chronic stages of the condition, and how close interaction between the epidermis and both innate and adaptive immune compartments drives psoriatic inflammation. Furthermore, we highlight work done on biomarkers to predict the outcome of therapy as well as the transition from psoriasis to psoriatic arthritis.

Abstract
Research on biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is ongoing. The purpose of this study was to assess the potential of serum and synovial fluid matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) as biomarkers for PsA and their relation to disease activity indices. This case-control study involved 156 psoriatic arthritis patients, 50 gonarthrosis patients, and 30 healthy controls. The target parameters were measured with the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Serum MMP-3 and MPO levels were elevated in the PsA patients in comparison to the two control groups (p < 0.001) and distinguished PsA from GoA patients and healthy controls with 100% accuracy. Synovial MMP-3 discriminated PsA from GoA patients irrespective of the presence of crystals (AUC = 1.00). PsA patients with crystals in the synovial fluid had elevated synovial MPO (p < 0.001) and were distinguished from PsA patients without crystals with accuracy of 88.50% and from GoA patients with accuracy of 88.30%. Synovial fluid MPO was positively associated with the following indicators of disease activity: VAS (rs = 0.396); DAPSA (rs = 0.365); mCPDAI (rs = 0.323). Synovial MMP-3 showed a weaker positive association with DAPSA (rs = 0.202) and mCPDAI (rs = 0.223). Our results suggest that serum MMP-3 and MPO could serve as biomarkers for PsA. Synovial fluid MMP-3 showed a potential as a biomarker for PsA versus GoA. Synovial MPO could be utilized as a marker for the presence of crystals in PsA patients.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a form of chronic inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis and a multitude of other symptoms, most commonly arthritis, dactylitis, enthesitis and axial involvement. PsA is significantly heterogeneous, with a highly variable clinical course of PsA. Patients may experience significant or mild skin and joint symptoms, with some patients developing rapidly progressing joint destruction and skin symptoms. Despite the range of symptom severity, PsA is frequently associated with significantly impaired quality of life from joint destruction, as well as chronic pain and a range of comorbidities such as depression and cardiovascular disease. Currently, there are no definitive diagnostic tests for PsA, with diagnosis remaining challenging owing to the heterogeneous presentation and course of the disease. Presently, the CASPAR criteria are often used to aid rheumatologists in distinguishing PsA from other inflammatory arthritides. Treatment options for patients have been expanded over the last two decades with the emerging clinical utility of biological therapies. However, early identification and diagnosis of patients and effective disease control remain unmet medical needs within the PsA community. In addition, predicting response to treatment also remains a challenge to rheumatologists. This review highlights the current hurdles faced by healthcare professionals in the diagnosis and management of PsA patients and provides future action points for consideration by the members of the multidisciplinary team who treat PsA patients.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PSA) is important for successful therapeutic intervention but currently remains challenging due, in part, to the scarcity of non-invasive biomarkers. In this study, we performed single cell profiling of transcriptome and cell surface protein expression to compare the peripheral blood immunocyte populations of individuals with PSA, individuals with cutaneous psoriasis (PSO) alone, and healthy individuals. We identified genes and proteins differentially expressed between PSA, PSO, and healthy subjects across 30 immune cell types and observed that some cell types, as well as specific phenotypic subsets of cells, differed in abundance between these cohorts. Cell type-specific gene and protein expression differences between PSA, PSO, and healthy groups, along with 200 previously published genetic risk factors for PSA, were further used to perform machine learning classification, with the best models achieving AUROC ≥ 0.87 when either classifying subjects among the three groups or specifically distinguishing PSA from PSO. Our findings thus expand the repertoire of gene, protein, and cellular biomarkers relevant to PSA and demonstrate the utility of machine learning-based diagnostics for this disease.

Usage of C-Reactive Protein Testing in the Diagnosis and Monitoring of Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA): Results from a Real-World Survey in the USA and Europe. Rheumatol Ther 2022; 9:285-293. [PMID: 35032324 PMCID: PMC8814274 DOI: 10.1007/s40744-021-00420-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Accepted: 12/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction C-reactive protein (CRP) is an important non-specific marker of both acute and chronic inflammation and can be elevated in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). However, the use of CRP testing in the management of PsA can vary. This study investigated how CRP testing is implemented in real-world clinical practice for disease management of PsA. Methods A point-in-time survey of rheumatologists and dermatologists and their next six consulting patients with PsA was conducted in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK (EU5), and the USA between June and August 2018. Use of CRP testing was obtained by asking the physician to state (yes/no) whether CRP was used to aid PsA diagnosis and/or to monitor the patient’s disease activity. The number of CRP tests conducted in the last 12 months for each patient enrolled was provided. Results Data were collected for 2270 patients (USA, n = 595; EU5, n = 1675). In the EU5, CRP testing was conducted to aid diagnosis in 78.7% of patients (vs. 43.4% in USA) and CRP was used to monitor disease activity in 72.0% (vs. 34.6% in USA). The majority (80.9%) of patients in the EU5 had at least one CRP test in the last 12 months compared to 42.9% in the USA. Patients treated by rheumatologists (vs. dermatologists) were at least 50% more likely to have CRP tested for monitoring purposes, this difference being most pronounced in the USA. In the EU5, CRP testing was conducted a mean ± standard deviation of 2.7 ± 1.7 times during the last 12 months, versus 2.0 ± 1.4 in the USA. Conclusions CRP was more commonly used for the diagnosis and monitoring of PsA in Europe compared to the USA and was more commonly ordered by rheumatologists than dermatologists. In the absence of a better serum biomarker of inflammation, more data are needed to understand how CRP testing should be used in the diagnosis and management PsA.

Abstract
Greater than 90% of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) first develop their arthritis on a background of known psoriasis (Pso). Thus, having skin/nail Pso certainly is an important risk factor for PsA but as PsA develops in <30% of those affected with Pso, the presence of Pso alone is insufficient as a means of identifying which patients with Pso will develop PsA. It is hoped that with further molecular assessment of Pso patients who do not have any evidence of inflammatory musculoskeletal disease compared to those with early PsA features, that the “at risk” profile of Pso patients destined to develop PsA can be refined such that disease prevention studies can be designed and a new era of treatment for PsA can emerge. In this article, the early stages in the development of PsA are outlined and what is currently known about clinical features, genetic factors and soluble or tissue biomarkers associated with the development of PsA in patients with Pso is reviewed in detail. Finally, proposals are outlined regarding the approaches required in order to address this important research area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is an inflammatory disease associated with multiple comorbidities. Biomarkers for the assessment of psoriasis, its associated comorbidities, and the therapeutic response are not well characterized. A number of possible biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of psoriasis have been proposed. PURPOSE To assess potential biomarkers for diagnosis of psoriasis, its associated comorbidities and response to treatment. METHODS We investigated medical databases from 2000 to 2021 and assessed relevant research. In this review, we evaluated the important biomarkers to help predict potential risk of psoriasis and disease activity (Beta-defensin-2, VEGF, Lipocalin-2, and YKL-40) and its possible inflammatory-related comorbidities like cardiovascular diseases (hs-CRP, GlycA, Psoriasin, IL-18, NT-proBNP, and Adipokines). In addition, we described the potential biomarkers for psoriatic arthritis (CXCL10, S100A8 and S100A9, and MicroRNA) and related manifestations such as enthesitis. Finally, we discussed novel markers for monitoring the response to specific treatments (HLA-C 06, PLC, TARC, NLR, and PLR) as well as potentially useful biomarkers for evaluation of therapy-associated adverse events (liver fibrosis-related markers). CONCLUSION A wide range of genetic, tissue and serum markers have been investigated in psoriasis; however, most of them are not used in routine clinical practice; and thorough physical examination along with the appropriate application of clinical scoring systems like Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score are still of particular importance.

Abstract
Background Biomarkers for distinguishing psoriatic arthritis (PsA) from psoriasis without arthritis (PsO) are still lacking. Methods We applied isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) and LC–MS/MS to analyze the proteome profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from patients with PsO, patients with PsA, and healthy controls. Bioinformatics analysis and western blotting were performed to identify and validate differentially expressed proteins. Results We identified 389, 199, 291, and 60 significantly differentially expressed proteins (adj.p < 0.05) in the comparison of all psoriatic patients versus healthy controls, PsO group versus healthy controls, PsA group versus healthy controls, and PsA group versus PsO group, respectively. Among these proteins, 14 proteins may represent promising biomarkers for PsA: SIRT2, NAA50, ARF6, ADPRHL2, SF3B6, SH3KBP1, UBA3, SCP2, RPS5, NUDT5, NCBP1, SYNE1, NDUFB7, HTATSF1. Furthermore, western blotting confirmed that SIRT2 expression was significantly higher in PBMCs from PsA patients than PsO and healthy controls, and was negatively correlated with the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p-p38MAPK; p = 0.006, r = − 0.582). Conclusions This pilot study provided a broad characterization of the proteome of PBMCs in PsA as compared to PsO and healthy controls, which may help to provide prospective strategies for PsA diagnosis.

Abstract
Metalloproteinases (MMPs) and cytokines have a great impact on the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Cytokines, as key mediators of inflammation and autoimmune processes, play a crucial role in the regulation of MMP expression in different cell types. Parallel, MMPs have an influence on cytokine production. This interaction was not well recognized in psoriatic patients. Our study is aimed at assessing the selected serum MMP levels and their correlations with cytokine levels in the serum of psoriatic patients. We observed a significantly elevated level of pro-MMP-1 and MMP-9 in psoriatic patients' serum in comparison to the control group. We did not observe any statistically significant differences of MMP-3 and pro-MMP-10 between the psoriatic patients and the control group. We did not observe any statistically significant differences in all the studied MMP levels between the patients with and without psoriatic arthritis (PsA). MMP-3 level correlated positively with proinflammatory cytokines, i.e., IL-12p/70, IL-17A, and TNF-α as well as MMP-3 and pro MMP-1 correlated positively with IL-4 in the psoriatic patients. In the control group, a positive correlation between pro-MMP-1 and TNF-α was found. These results confirm MMPs and Th1 and Th17 cytokine interaction in the inflammatory regulation in psoriasis.

Abstract
Twenty to thirty percent of psoriasis (Pso) patients will develop psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Detection of Pso patients that are (at risk for) developing PsA is essential to prevent structural damage. We conducted a systematic search of five bibliographic databases, up to May 2020. We searched for studies assessing markers (clinical, laboratory, genetic) associated with the development or presence of PsA in Pso patients. Study selection and quality assessment of the included studies was performed, followed by a qualitative best evidence synthesis to determine the level of evidence for a marker and its association with concomitant/developing PsA in Pso. Overall, 259 possible markers were identified in 119 studies that met the inclusion criteria. Laboratory markers related to inflammation and bone metabolism reached a strong level of evidence for the association (not prediction) of PsA in Pso. Only CXCL10 showed strong evidence for a positive predictive value for PsA in Pso. The importance of timely detecting PsA in a Pso population, and finding more (bio)markers contributing to early detection, remains high.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis. It is found in approximately 10% of psoriatic patients in Japan. PsA mainly affects the peripheral joints, spine, and/or sacroiliac joints. Left untreated, there is progressive, irreversible bone destruction leading to joint deformation and dysfunction. Before the era of biologic treatments, the diagnosis of PsA was difficult and available treatments were limited. Over time the pathology of PsA has become better understood, and many treatments now exist. Early detection and treatment of impending joint deformities are necessary to avoid impairment of PsA patients' quality of life. Most patients develop the arthritis following the onset of the skin manifestations of psoriasis. The process of diagnosing PsA sometimes encounters difficulties because some patients may not show radiographic findings in the early stage, and may have normal levels of C-reactive protein and matrix metalloproteinase-3. For these cases, approaches such as magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound imaging, as well as symptom questionnaires, are helpful. Currently, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, and several biologics are the main treatments for PsA, which when used with an aggressive approach, will result in better patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the performance of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) screening tools, examine their implementation in daily practice, and reach a consensus about the best screening tool for implementation in daily practice in different medical settings. METHODS A systematic literature review (SLR), structured telephone interviews to hospitals, and a multidisciplinary nominal group meeting were all conducted. The SLR employed sensitive search strategies using Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library up to January 2020. Two reviewers independently selected articles that reported data on PsA screening tools and that included sufficient data to at least calculate the sensitivity and specificity of those tools (e.g., questionnaires, algorithms, specific questions, and biomarkers). The hospital interviews collected data regarding the process of suspected PsA diagnosis and referral to rheumatology, the implementation of PsA screening tools, and barriers and facilitators to implementation of those tools. In the nominal group meeting, a multidisciplinary team of experts discussed all these data and subsequently recommended a screening tool for implementation. RESULTS The SLR included 41 moderate-quality studies that analyzed 14 PsA screening tools, most of which were questionnaire-based tools. All of these studies reported a moderate-good performance but presented different characteristics regarding the time to completion or the number and type of items or questions. The implementation of screening tools was low (30.5%). The experts ultimately recommended regular use of a PsA screening tool, preferably the PURE-4 questionnaire. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of PsA screening tools like the PURE-4 questionnaire in daily practice likely improves the prognosis of PsA patients.

Abstract
Currently used imaging methods for diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) frequently come along with exposure to radiation and can often only show long-term effects of the disease. The aim of the study was to check the feasibility of a new optoacoustic imaging method to identify PsA. 22 psoriasis patients and 19 healthy volunteers underwent examination using multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT). The presence of arthritis was assessed via quantification of optoacoustic signal intensity of the endogenous chromophores oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin. We conducted high-resolution real-time ultrasound images of the finger joints. The semi quantitative analysis of the optoacoustic signals for both hemoglobin species showed a significant higher blood content and oxygenation in PsA patients compared to healthy controls. Our results indicate that MSOT might allow detection of inflammation in an early stage. If the data is further confirmed, this technique might be a suitable tool to avoid delay of diagnosis of PsA.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic heterogeneous inflammatory musculoskeletal disease. The non-specific and often subtle manifestations make early diagnosis and subsequent treatment challenging. In the absence of diagnostic criteria and biomarkers, the diagnosis is often delayed leading to poor long-term outcomes. In addition, the differential diagnosis of a patient presenting with arthritis in the setting of skin psoriasis is wide due to symptom overlap with many other diseases. Peripheral arthritis, dactylitis, enthesitis and axial arthritis are the 4 domains of musculoskeletal involvement in PsA and careful examination of each domain by a rheumatologist is the first step for a correct diagnosis. Other extra-musculoskeletal features such as the presence of uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, nail psoriasis and elevated acute phase reactants aid in the diagnosis of PsA. Screening patients with skin psoriasis using validated questionnaires might help in early diagnosis especially when coupled with imaging.

Abstract
Pain is the major symptom of osteoarthritis (OA) and is an important factor in strategies to manage this disease. However, the current standard of care does not provide satisfactory pain relief for many patients. The pathophysiology of OA is complex, and its presentation as a clinical syndrome is associated with pathologies of multiple joint tissues. Inflammation is associated with both OA pain and disease outcome and is therefore a major treatment target for OA and OA pain. Unlike TNF inhibitors and IL-1 inhibitors, established drugs such as glucocorticoids and methotrexate can reduce OA pain. Although central nociceptive pathways contribute to OA pain, crosstalk between the immune system and nociceptive neurons is central to inflammatory pain; therefore, new therapies might target this crosstalk. Newly identified drug targets, including neurotrophins and the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-CC-chemokine ligand 17 (CCL17) chemokine axis, offer the hope of better results but require clinical validation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically review the accuracy and characteristics of different questionnaire-based PsA screening tools. METHODS A systematic review of MEDLINE, Excerpta Medical Database, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Web of Science was conducted to identify studies that evaluated the accuracy of self-administered PsA screening tools for patients with psoriasis. A bivariate meta-analysis was used to pool screening tool-specific accuracy estimates (sensitivity and specificity). Heterogeneity of the diagnostic odds ratio was evaluated through meta-regression. All full-text records were assessed for risk of bias with the QUADAS 2 tool. RESULTS A total of 2280 references were identified and 130 records were assessed for full-text review, of which 42 were included for synthesis. Of these, 27 were included in quantitative syntheses. Of the records, 37% had an overall low risk of bias. Fourteen different screening tools and 104 separate accuracy estimates were identified. Pooled sensitivity and specificity estimates were calculated for the Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation (cut-off = 44), Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation (47), Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screening (8), Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool (3) and Early Psoriatic Arthritis Screening Questionnaire (3). The Early Psoriatic Arthritis Screening Questionnaire reported the highest sensitivity and specificity (0.85 each). The I2 for the diagnostic odds ratios varied between 76 and 90.1%. Meta-regressions were conducted, in which the age, risk of bias for patient selection and the screening tool accounted for some of the observed heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS Questionnaire-based tools have moderate accuracy to identify PsA among psoriasis patients. The Early Psoriatic Arthritis Screening Questionnaire appears to have slightly better accuracy compared with the Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screening, Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool and Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation. An economic evaluation could model the uncertainty and estimate the cost-effectiveness of PsA screening programs that use different tools.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the utility of apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage (AIM)/CD5L as a potentially novel biomarker of morbidity and mortality in patients with sepsis who are critically ill. METHODS There were 150 adult patients with sepsis studied. Serum AIM levels on day of ICU admission were determined and compared with survival status and organ dysfunction. For validation, 60 adult patients with sepsis from another medical center were studied. Furthermore, the role of AIM as an outcome predictor in 51 pediatric patients with sepsis was investigated. RESULTS In the derivation cohort of adult patients, patients with sepsis had markedly increased admission levels of serum AIM compared with ICU control subjects and healthy control subjects. Higher serum AIM levels at admission were significantly associated with higher Sequential (sepsis-related) Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores. On day of ICU admission, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for AIM level association with 28-day mortality was 0.86, higher than the AUC for SOFA (0.77), procalcitonin (0.73), lactate (0.67), IL-27 (0.65), and C-reactive protein (0.55). Patients with sepsis with higher admission levels of AIM (> 543.66 ng/mL) had significantly increased 28-day mortality compared with those with lower AIM levels (≤ 543.66 ng/mL). The association between admission levels of AIM and 28-day mortality was confirmed in the validation cohort of adult patients. In another cohort of pediatric patients with sepsis, the AUC for AIM level association with 28-day mortality was 0.82. CONCLUSIONS Circulating AIM levels at admission were markedly increased in patients with sepsis, which can serve as a novel prognostic biomarker for predicting mortality.

Abstract
Psoriasis (PsO) is an autoimmune disease characterized by keratinocyte proliferation, chronic inflammation and mast cell activation. Up to 42% of patients with PsO may present psoriatic arthritis (PsA). PsO and PsA share common pathophysiological mechanisms: keratinocytes and fibroblast-like synoviocytes are resistant to apoptosis: this is one of the mechanism facilitating their hyperplasic growth, and at joint level, the destruction of articular cartilage, and bone erosion and/or proliferation. Several clinical studies regarding diseases characterized by impairment of cell death, either due to apoptosis or necrosis, reported cytochrome c release from the mitochondria into the extracellular space and finally into the circulation. The presence of elevated cytochrome c levels in serum has been demonstrated in diseases as inflammatory arthritis, myocardial infarction and stroke, and liver diseases. Cytochrome c is a signaling molecule essential for apoptotic cell death released from mitochondria to the cytosol allowing the interaction with protease, as the apoptosis protease activation factor, which lead to the activation of factor-1 and procaspase 9. It has been demonstrated that this efflux from the mitochondria is crucial to start the intracellular signaling responsible for apoptosis, then to the activation of the inflammatory process. Another inflammatory marker, the tryptase, a trypsin-like serine protease produced by mast cells, is released during inflammation, leading to the activation of several immune cells through proteinase-activated receptor-2. In this review, we aimed at discussing the role played by cytochrome c and tryptase in PsO and PsA pathogenesis. To this purpose, we searched pathogenetic mechanisms in PUBMED database and review on oxidative stress, cytochrome c and tryptase and their potential role during inflammation in PsO and PsA. To this regard, the cytochrome c release into the extracellular space and tryptase may have a role in skin and joint inflammation.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory arthritis which develops in up to one-third of patients suffering from the cutaneous disorder, psoriasis. The complex and heterogeneous nature of PsA renders it difficult to diagnose, leading to poor outcomes and, therefore, warrants an examination into soluble biomarkers, which may facilitate early detection of the disease. Protein biomarkers are a dynamic resource of pathophysiological information able to provide an immediate reflection of pathological changes caused by disease. Investigations of the serum and synovial fluid of PsA patients has provided new insights into the molecular basis of this disease and led to the identification of sensitive diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. The collection of novel PsA biomarkers identified through proteomic studies has been reviewed below.
