Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in people with diabetes. Compared with European Americans, African Americans have more favorable lipid profiles, as indicated by higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, lower triglycerides, and less dense low-density lipoprotein particles. The less atherogenic lipid profile translates to lower incidence and prevalence of CVD in African Americans with diabetes, despite higher rates of hypertension and obesity. However, African Americans with CVD experience worse clinical outcomes, including higher mortality, compared with European Americans. This mini-review summarizes the epidemiology, pathophysiology, mechanisms, and management of CVD in people with diabetes, focusing on possible factors underlying the "African American CVD paradox" (lower CVD incidence/prevalence but worse outcomes). Although the reasons for the disparities in CVD outcomes remain to be fully elucidated, we present a critical appraisal of the roles of suboptimal control of risk factors, inequities in care delivery, several biological factors, and psychosocial stress. We identify gaps in current knowledge and propose areas for future investigation.

Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Exosomes Alleviate Psoriasis Serum Exosomes-Induced Inflammation by Regulating Autophagy and Redox Status in Keratinocytes. Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol 2023; 16:3699-3711.

Abstract
Introduction Exosomes play a key role in cell communication and are involved in both pathological and physiological processes. Autophagy dysfunction and oxidative stress are linked to immune-mediated inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis. Stem cell-derived exosomes exhibit immunomodulatory and antioxidant efficacy. Methods We aimed to investigate the impact of psoriasis serum-derived exosomes on inflammation, oxidative stress, and autophagy in keratinocytes. Additionally, we explored the therapeutic potential of adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) exosomes against inflammation induced by psoriasis serum exosomes. To validate psoriasis patient serum-derived exosomes and ADSC exosomes, we used nanoparticle tracking analysis, Western blotting, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence. qPCR was used to study changes in the gene expression of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress markers in HaCaT cells treated with psoriasis serum-derived exosomes or ADSC exosomes. The effects of these exosomes on autophagy in HaCaT cells were evaluated by Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Result The treatment of HaCaT cells with psoriasis serum-derived exosomes increased proinflammatory cytokine production and oxidative stress-related factor (Nox2 and Nox4) expression and decreased Nrf2 expression via P65/NF-κB and P38/MAPK activation. Compared with healthy control serum-derived exosomes, psoriasis serum-derived exosomes decreased ATG5, P62, Beclin1, and LC3 expression and autophagosome production in HaCaT cells. Conversely, ADSC exosomes suppressed proinflammatory cytokine and oxidative stress production, and restored autophagy in HaCaT cells treated with psoriasis serum-derived exosomes. Discussion These findings suggest that ADSC exosomes exhibit a suppressive effect on psoriasis serum exosome-induced inflammation and oxidative stress by regulating autophagy in keratinocytes.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin and joints associated with several comorbidities such as arthritis, diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome, including obesity, hypertension and dyslipidaemia, Crohn's disease, uveitis and psychiatric and psychological diseases. Psoriasis has been described as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and thus patients with psoriasis should be monitored for the development of cardiovascular disease or metabolic syndrome. However, there is mounting evidence that psoriasis also affects the development of osteoporosis, an important metabolic disease with enormous clinical and socioeconomic impact. At present, there are still controversial opinions about the role of psoriasis in osteoporosis. A more in depth analysis of this phenomenon is of great importance for affected patients since, until now, bone metabolism is not routinely examined in psoriatic patients, which might have important long-term consequences for patients and the health system. In the present review, we summarize current knowledge on the impact of psoriatic inflammation on bone metabolism and osteoporosis.

Abstract
Human serum paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) is a critical antioxidant defense system against lipid oxidation. Decreased PON-1 activity has been associated with systemic oxidative stress in several disease states. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of plasma/serum concentrations of PON-1 paraoxonase and arylesterase activity in psoriasis, a chronic immune-mediated and inflammatory skin disease. The electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched from inception to November 2021. In total, 14 studies in 691 psoriatic patients and 724 healthy controls were included in the meta-analysis. Serum paraoxonase activity was significantly lower in psoriatic patients (SMD = - 2.30, 95% CI - 3.17 to - 1.42; p < 0.001); however, no significant between-group differences were observed in serum arylesterase activity (SMD = - 0.34, 95% CI - 0.11 to 0.80; p = 0.14). The pooled SMD values were not substantially altered in sensitivity analysis. There was no publication bias. In conclusion, our meta-analysis has shown that serum paraoxonase, but not arylesterase, activity is significantly lower in psoriasis, suggesting an impaired antioxidant defense in these patients.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory dermatosis characterized by the appearance of erythematous plaques, covered by white scales, occasionally pruritogenic, and distributed mainly on the extensor areas. Oxidative stress is defined as an imbalance or a transient or chronic increase in the levels of free oxygen/nitrogen radicals, either as a result of the exaggerated elevation in their production or the decrease in their ability to be eliminated by antioxidant systems. Although the pathogenesis of psoriasis remains far from elucidated, there are studies that delineate an involvement of oxidative stress in this skin disorder. Thus, a systematic search was computed in PubMed/Medline, Web of Science and SCOPUS and, in total, 1293 potentially eligible articles exploring this research question were detected. Following the removal of duplicates and the exclusion of irrelevant manuscripts based on the screening of their titles and abstracts (n = 995), 298 original articles were selected for full-text review. Finally, after we applied the exclusion and inclusion criteria, 79 original articles were included in this systematic review. Overall, the data analyzed in this systematic review point out that oxidative stress markers are elevated in psoriasis and share an association with the duration and severity of the disease. The concentrations of these biomarkers are impacted on by anti-psoriasis therapy. In addition, the crosstalk between psoriasis and oxidative stress is influenced by several polymorphisms that arise in genes encoding markers or enzymes related to the redox balance. Although the involvement of oxidative stress in psoriasis remains undisputable, future research is needed to explore the utility of assessing circulating serum, plasma, urinary and/or skin biomarkers of oxidative stress and of studying polymorphisms in genes regulating the redox balance, as well as how can these findings be translated into the management of psoriasis, as well in understanding its pathogenesis and evolution.

Abnormal Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) enzyme activity in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies. Rheumatology (Oxford) 2021; 61:2512-2523. [PMID: 34698804 DOI: 10.1093/rheumatology/keab795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 10/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) have severe vascular involvement, which contributes to disease morbidity and mortality. Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) associated protein, which protects the vascular endothelium from oxidative injury and damage. The current work assessed the functional and genetic determinants of PON1 activity in IIM patients. METHODS 184 IIM patients and 112 healthy controls (HC) were included. PON1 enzyme activity was assessed by paraoxonase, arylesterase and lactonase assays, and the Q192R PON1 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was analyzed. Multivariate regression models examined associations of PON1 activity with IIM diagnosis and myositis disease outcomes. RESULTS The arylesterase and lactonase activities of PON1 were significantly lower in IIM patients compared with HC. Higher myositis disease activity, the presence of severe IIM associated interstitial lung disease (ILD), and the presence of MDA5 or anti-synthetase antibodies were significantly associated with lower PON1 activity. The PON1 Q192R polymorphism was strongly linked to the paraoxonase activity of PON1 in IIM, and patients with the PON1 QQ genotype had better IIM disease outcomes compared with patients with the QR or RR genotypes. CONCLUSIONS The arylesterase and lactonase activities of PON1 are significantly impaired in IIM patients compared with HC, and inversely associate with IIM disease activity and the presence of severe ILD. The PON1 QQ genotype associates with more favorable disease outcomes in IIM patients. Large prospective studies are needed to further evaluate the role of PON1 and PON1 genetic polymorphisms in the development and propagation of IIM and IIM-ILD.

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
Psoriasis is a chronic, autoimmune skin disease. In psoriasis, PON1 activity is diminished and peroxidation biomarkers are elevated. The most studied PON1 polymorphisms are rs662 (A > G) and rs854560 (A > T), which have been associated with the antioxidant activity of PON1, risk of cardiovascular diseases and psoriasis development. The aim of this study, was to determine the association of rs662 (A > G) and rs854560 (A > T) PON1 polymorphisms with psoriasis susceptibility in Western Mexico population. In this case-control study, we included 104 psoriasis patients and 124 control subjects. The genotyping of polymorphisms rs662 (A > G) and rs854560 (A > T) of PON1 was carried out by PCR-RFLPs. The lipid profiles were quantified by enzymatic colorimetric method, and PON1 activity was determined by spectrophotometry. The lipid profile levels, except HDL-C and atherogenic index, were higher in patients vs. controls. Patients presented lower paraoxonase and arylesterase activity. The G allele of rs662 (A > G) is associated with risk for psoriasis, while the T allele of rs854560 (A > T) is associated with low susceptibility to psoriasis. The AG haplotype was more frequent within the patient group (p < 0.05). The AA and AG genotypes of rs662 (A > G) and TT and AA genotypes of rs854560 (A > T) are associated with lower PONase and ARE activity in patients vs. controls. Patients with the G allele of rs662 (G > A) and T alleles of rs854560 (A > T) show significant differences in the lipid levels in comparison to controls. These results suggest that carriers of G allele of rs662 (A > G) present a greater susceptibility to psoriasis.

Abstract
The spondyloarthritides are a group of chronic systemic inflammatory joint diseases, the main types being ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Evidence accumulating during the last decades suggests that patients with AS or PsA carry an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death. This risk appears to be mediated by systemic inflammation over and above classical cardiovascular risk factors. The excess cardiovascular risk in those patients has been formally acknowledged by scientific organizations, which have called physicians' attention to the matter. The application by Rheumatologists of new effective anti-rheumatic treatments and treat-to-target strategies seems to benefit patients from a cardiovascular point of view, as well. However, more data are needed in order to verify whether anti-rheumatic treatments do have an effect on cardiovascular risk and whether there are differences among them in this regard. Most importantly, a higher level of awareness of the cardiovascular risk is needed among patients and healthcare providers, better tools to recognize at-risk patients and, ultimately, commitment to address in parallel both the musculoskeletal and the cardiovascular aspect of the disease.

Abstract
From an evolutionary perspective, lipoproteins are not only lipid transporters, but they also have important functions in many aspects of immunity. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles are the most abundant lipoproteins and the most heterogeneous in terms of their composition, structure, and biological functions. Despite strong evidence that HDL potently influences the activity of several immune cells, the role of HDL in allergies and skin diseases is poorly understood. Alterations in HDL-cholesterol levels have been observed in allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis (eczema), psoriasis, urticaria, and angioedema. HDL-associated apolipoprotein (apo) A-I, apoA-IV, and apoC-III, and lyso-phosphatidylcholines potently suppress immune cell effector responses. Interestingly, recent studies provided evidence that allergies and skin diseases significantly affect HDL composition, metabolism, and function, which, in turn, could have a significant impact on disease progression, but may also affect the risk of cardiovascular disease and infections. Interestingly, not only a loss in function, but also, sometimes, a gain in function of certain HDL properties is observed. The objective of this review article is to summarize the newly identified changes in the metabolism, composition, and function of HDL in allergies and skin diseases. We aim to highlight the possible pathophysiological consequences with a focus on HDL-mediated immunomodulatory activities.

Abstract
This review discusses how oxidative stress (OS), an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants in favor of the oxidants, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)/reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and decreased concentration/activity of antioxidants affect the pathogenesis or cause the enhancement of psoriasis (Ps). Here, we also consider how ROS/RNS-induced stress modulates the activity of transcriptional factors and regulates numerous protein kinase cascades that participate in the regulation of crosstalk between autophagy, apoptosis, and regeneration. Answers to these questions will likely uncover novel strategies for the treatment of Ps. Action in the field will avoid destructive effects of ROS/RNS-mediated OS resulting in cellular dysfunction and cell death. The combination of the fragmentary information on the role of OS can provide evidence to extend the full picture of Ps.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is higher in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) compared to the general population. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of PsA. Because tofacitinib increases circulating lipid levels in some patients, we evaluated CVD risk factors and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with active PsA receiving tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg twice daily plus conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. METHODS Data were pooled from 2 phase III studies (Efficacy and Safety of Tofacitinib in Psoriatic Arthritis [OPAL Broaden] and Tofacitinib in Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis With Inadequate Response to TNF Inhibitors [OPAL Beyond]) and 1 ongoing long-term extension (Open-Label Extension Study of Tofacitinib in Psoriatic Arthritis [OPAL Balance], data cutoff January 2017; database not locked). Outcomes included fasting lipid levels, blood pressure, hypertension-related adverse events (AEs; including hypertension, high blood pressure, and increased blood pressure), and MACE. RESULTS Overall, 783 tofacitinib-treated patients were included. Percentage increases from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) levels ranged from 9% to 14% for tofacitinib 5 mg and 10 mg at 3 and 6 months; no meaningful changes in LDL-c:HDL-c or total cholesterol:HDL-c ratios were observed. Blood pressure remained stable for 24 months. Fifty-eight patients (7.4%) had hypertension-related AEs; none were fatal (incidence rate [IR] per 100 patient-years 4.81 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 3.65-6.22]). Five patients (0.6%) had MACE (IR 0.24 [95% CI 0.05-0.70]); 2 were fatal. CONCLUSION Serum lipid level increases at month 3 following tofacitinib treatment in PsA were consistent with observations in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. The IR of hypertension-related AEs and MACE was low; long-term follow-up is ongoing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatism characterized for a long time by a high degree of cardiovascular risk. Chronic inflammation is one of the mechanisms that explain this cardiovascular excess of risk through direct and indirect pathways. In recent years, epidemiological data have changed somewhat since the increasing use of bio-drugs that are effective in reducing this inflammation. The purpose of this review is to assess the current state of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in PsA and thus to assess the cardiovascular risk in case of PsA. METHOD We conducted a literature review using Pubmed and Medline databases with the following keywords "Psoriatic Arthritis" AND "cardiovascular" including articles from the last three years. RESULTS It appears that in case of PsA, there is an increased prevalence of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and dyslipidemia, and therefore of metabolic syndrome. Insulin resistance is closely linked to PsA. On the other hand, the data are more contrasted for active smoking. There is also arterial inflammation specific to PsA. Finally, at the therapeutic level, the impact of NSAIDs remains controversial, while methotrexate and bio-drugs are beneficial at the cardiovascular level. CONCLUSION PsA is characterized by an increase in cardiovascular morbidity in relation with insulin resistance. Current treatments seem to improve this risk with a decrease in cardiovascular mortality in comparison with patients with plaque psoriasis but this requires confirmation in larger prospective studies.

Abstract
Psoriasis is chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting skin, joints, cardiovascular system, brain, and metabolism. The pathogenesis of psoriasis is mediated by a complex interplay between the immune system, inflammatory mediators of different pathways, e.g., TNF-alpha and the IL-23/IL-17 pathways, psoriasis-associated susceptibility loci, autoantigens, and multiple environmental factors. Psoriasis is triggered by the combination of genetic and environmental factors. A novel environmental risk factor with rising importance is obesity. Several studies proved that obesity is an independent risk factor for the onset and severity of psoriasis. Due to the dramatic increase of obesity worldwide this minireview focuses on obesity as a major environmental risk factor for psoriasis and the mechanisms of obesity-mediated exacerbation of psoriasis.

Abstract
Medications show their biological effects by interaction with enzymes, which have been known to play an essential role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Inhibition or induction of drug metabolizing enzymes has an essential place in the drug design for many kinds of diseases including cardiovascular, neurological, metabolic, and cancer. The main goal of the current study is to contribute to this growing drug design field by observing PON1-drug interactions. In recent years, the safety of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has discussed. In the present study, paraoxonase 1 (PON1) enzyme was purified from human serum by simple chromatographic methods with 4095.24 EU mg-1 protein specific activity. The inhibitory activities of gadoteric acid, gadopentetic acid, gadoxetate disodium, and gadodiamide were investigated on PON1 activity of the enzyme. IC50 values were found in the range of 51.28 ± 0.14 to 285.80 ± 0.96 mM. Ki constants were found as 67.95 ± 0.60 mM, 104.97 ± 0.96 mM, 202.33 ± 1.75 mM, and 299.43 ± 2.64 mM for gadoteric acid, gadopentetic acid, gadoxetate disodium, and gadodiamide, respectively. While the inhibition types are determined as competitive of gadoxetate disodium and gadodiamide by the Lineweaver-Burk curves, it was noncompetitive for other compounds. In addition, the molecular docking analyses of gadoxetate disodium and gadodiamide were carried out to understand the binding interactions on the active site of the PON1 enzyme. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the drugs was established on the basis of different substituents and their positions in the compounds.

Evaluation of the prognostic value of paraoxonase 1 in the recurrence and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma and establishment of a liver-specific predictive model of survival.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma is a malignant tumor with a highly invasive and metastatic phenotype, and the detection of potential indicators associated with its recurrence and metastasis after surgical resection is critical for patient survival. Methods Transcriptome data for large cohorts (n = 1432) from multicenter sources were comprehensively analyzed to explore such potential signatures. The prognostic value of the selected indicators was investigated and discussed, and a comparison with conventional clinicopathological features was performed. A survival predictive nomogram for 5-year survival was established with the selected indicator using the Cox proportional hazards regression. To validate the indicator at the protein level, we performed immunohistochemical staining with paraffin-embedded slides of hepatocellular carcinoma samples (n = 67 patients) from our hospital. Finally, a gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to detect the underlying biological processes and internal mechanisms. Results The liver-specific protein paraoxonase 1 (PON1) was found to be the most relevant indicator of tumor recurrence, invasiveness, and metastasis in the present study, and the downregulation of PON1 might reveal poor survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The C-index of the PON1-related nomogram was 0.714, thus indicating a more effective predictive performance than the 7th American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) tumor stage (0.534), AJCC T stage (0.565), or alpha-fetoprotein (0.488). The GSEA revealed that PON1 was associated with several hepatocellular carcinoma-related pathways, including the cell cycle, DNA replication, gap junction and p53 downstream pathways. Conclusions The downregulation of paraoxonase 1 may suggest worse outcomes and a higher recurrence rate. Thus, paraoxonase 1 might represent an indicator for predicting the survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
