Abstract
Background. Recently, numerous studies have shown that TNFAIP3 gene polymorphisms have been associated with susceptibility to certain autoimmune inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. However, the results of studies devoted to the study of associations between TNFAIP3 gene polymorphisms and the risk of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are ambiguous and few.The aim of the study was to study the possible association of hs10499194 polymorphism of the TNFAIP3 gene with a predisposition to AS and its clinical phenotypes.Material and methods. The rs10499194 S/T polymorphism of the TNFA1P3 gene was studied in two hundred patients with AS (130 men and 70 women). All patients were diagnosed with AS, according to the modified New York criteria, 1984 and high activity of the disease. Demographic and clinical-serological characteristics were studied in all patients. The average age of patients was 39.4±12.6 years; the average duration of the disease was 15.0±10.6 years. Out of 200 patients, 175 (87.5%) were seropositive for HLA-B27 antigen. Extra axial arthritis was detected in 125 (62.5%) patients, 148 (74.0%) had enthesitis, 137 (68.5%) had coxitis. The polymorphism rs10499194 of the TNFAIP3 gene was studied using an allelespecific polymerase chain reaction in real time (PCR-RV) using the Synthol kit.Results. The analysis of the frequencies of genotypes and alleles did not show significant differences with the control group. Stratification by sex, age, and clinical manifestations showed an association of the CT genotype with an increased risk of AS among men (OR=2.24; p=0.010), the TT genotype and the T allele with a high risk of predisposition to the development of extra axillary peripheral arthritis (OR=3.94; p=0.019 and OR=1.64; p=0.027 respectively). The BASDAI index was statistically significantly higher in carriers of the TT genotype compared to the CT genotype (p=0.002).Conclusion. The present study confirmed the association of the genetic polymorphism rs10499194 of the TNFAIP3 gene with AS. Stratification by gender and clinical manifestations showed an association of the CT genotype with an increased risk of AS among men, the TT genotype and the T allele with a high risk of predisposition to the development of extra axillary peripheral arthritis and a high BASDAI index in carriers of the TT genotype.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a recurrent autoimmune skin disease with aberrant regulation of keratinocytes and immunocytes. There is no universally accepted single treatment available for psoriasis, and the establishment of a common treatment option to control its signs and symptoms is urgently needed. Here, we found Ebosin, a novel exopolysaccharide isolated from Streptomyces sp. 139 by our lab, not only could ameliorate inflammation in LPS-induced keratinocytes through IKK/NF-kapaB pathway, but also attenuate psoriatic skin lesions and reduce inflammatory factors expression in imiquimod (IMQ)-mediated psoriatic mice. Except for inhibiting the expression of epidermal differentiation related proteins, Ebosin significantly increased the percentage of CD4+Foxp3+CD25+ Tregs and decreased CD4+IL17A+ Th17 cells in psoriatic mice. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Ebosin significantly suppressed the IL-17 signaling pathway via A20 (encoded by tnfaip3) in vivo. As the direct binding of tnfaip3 to miR-155 has been demonstrated by luciferase reporter assay, and Ebosin has been demonstrated to inhibit miR-155 level in vitro and in vivo, our study first indicates that Ebosin reduces inflammation through the miR-155-tnfaip3-IL-17 axis and T cell differentiation in a psoriasis-like model. Thus, we conclude that Ebosin can act as a promising therapeutic candidate for the treatment of psoriasis.

Abstract
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease with complex pathogenesis and multiple etiological factors. Besides the essential role of autoreactive T cells and constellation of cytokines, the discovery of IL-23/Th17 axis as a central signaling pathway has unraveled the mechanism of accelerated inflammation in psoriasis. This has provided insights into psoriasis pathogenesis and revolutionized the development of effective biological therapies. Moreover, genome-wide association studies have identified several candidate genes and susceptibility loci associated with this disease. Although involvement of cellular innate and adaptive immune responses and dysregulation of immune cells have been implicated in psoriasis initiation and maintenance, there is still a lack of unifying mechanism for understanding the pathogenesis of this disease. Emerging evidence suggests that psoriasis is a high-mortality disease with additional burden of comorbidities, which adversely affects the treatment response and overall quality of life of patients. Furthermore, changing trends of psoriasis-associated comorbidities and shared patterns of genetic susceptibility, risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms manifest psoriasis as a multifactorial systemic disease. This review highlights the recent progress in understanding the crucial role of different immune cells, proinflammatory cytokines and microRNAs in psoriasis pathogenesis. In addition, we comprehensively discuss the involvement of various complex signaling pathways and their interplay with immune cell markers to comprehend the underlying pathophysiological mechanism, which may lead to exploration of new therapeutic targets and development of novel treatment strategies to reduce the disastrous nature of psoriasis and associated comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is one of the most lethal and aggressive cancers. Evidence has shown that the tumorigenesis of ATC is a multistep process involving the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic changes. Several studies have suggested that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play an important role in the development and progression of ATC. In this article, we have collected the published reports about the role of lncRNAs in ATC. METHODS "Scopus", "Web of Science", "PubMed", "Embase", etc. were systematically searched for articles published since 1990 to 2020 in English language, using the predefined keywords. RESULTS 961 papers were reviewed and finally 33 papers which fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected. Based on this systematic review, among a lot of evidences on examining the function of lncRNAs in thyroid cancer, there are only a small number of studies about the role of lncRNAs and their molecular mechanisms in the pathogenesis of ATC. CONCLUSIONS lncRNAs play a crucial role in regulation of different processes involved in the development and progression of ATC. Currently, just a few lncRNAs have been identified in ATC that may serve as prognosis markers such as GAS5, MIR22HG, and CASC2. Also, because of the dysregulation of Klhl14-AS, HOTAIRM1, and PCA3 during ATC development and progression, they may act as therapeutic targets. However, for most lncRNAs, only a single experiment has evaluated the expression profile in ATC tissues/cells. Therefore, further functional studies and expression profiling is needed to resolve this limitation and identify novel and valid biomarkers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, the fundamental pathophysiology underlying the occurrence and progression of psoriasis are still unanswered questions. Genome-wide association surveys have revealed that TNFAIP3 and TNIP1 were key biomarkers for psoriasis. Here, we intended to conduct a survey on the association between TNFAIP3 and TNIP1 gene polymorphisms and psoriasis risk. METHODS A comprehensive search of four online databases-China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was undertaken up to August 25, 2019. We chose allele genetic model to deal with the original data. Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the risk bias of each study. The RevMan 5.3 software was used to calculate the combined odds ratio and 95% confidence interval. RESULTS In total, we included 13 case-control studies consist of 13,908 psoriasis patients and 20,051 controls in this work. Our results demonstrated that rs610604 in TNFAIP3 polymorphism was significantly associated with psoriasis risk using random-effect model (G vs. T, OR = 1.19, 95% CI: 1.09-1.31, P = 0.0002), and a significant association between rs17728338 in TNIP1 polymorphism and psoriasis vulnerability using fixed-effect model (A vs. G, OR = 1.69, 95% CI:1.58-1.80, P < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that rs610604 in TNFAIP3 and rs17728338 in TNIP1 gene polymorphisms were associated with psoriasis susceptibility.

Abstract
This study was conducted to clarify the associations of tumor necrosis factor-α induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) and TNFAIP3-interacting protein 1 (TNIP1) genetic polymorphisms with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) susceptibility. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TNFAIP3 gene and four in TNIP1 gene were genotyped in 667 AS patients and 667 matched healthy controls. Genotypes and haplotype analysis were conducted by using SPSS 23.0 and Haploview 4.2 software. The T allele and CT genotype in TNFAIP3 rs10499194 were significantly associated with a reduced AS risk (T allele vs. C allele, OR = 0.619, 95% CI = 0.430–0.889, P = 0.009; CT vs. CC, OR = 0.603, 95% CI = 0.416–0.875, P = 0.007). However, no association remained significant after Bonferroni correction. The rs13207033A- rs10499194T haplotype of TNFAIP3 conferred a protective effect on AS susceptibility. Stratification analyses suggested that rs10499194 polymorphism decreased the risk of AS in the male subgroup, subgroup aged ≥ 29, HLA-B27 positive subgroup as well as the subgroups of BASFI < 4 and BASDAI < 4 (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, the functional annotation suggested a potential function of rs10499194 mutation. Our results demonstrated that TNFAIP3 rs10499194 polymorphism may be associated with a reduced risk of AS.

Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare type of thyroid cancer with a high mortality rate. HLA complex P5 (HCP5), a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), has been shown to be implicated in several types of cancer, such as follicular thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the main type of thyroid cancer. However, the role of HCP5 in ATC remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the expression of HCP5 in ATC and its potential roles. The expression levels of HCP5 and microRNA (miR)-128-3p were tested using qRT-PCR. MTT assay was performed to detect cell viability. Cell apoptosis was evaluated by detecting apoptotic rate and caspase-3/7 activity. Luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays were carried out to confirm the association between HCP5 and miR-128-3p. Compared with human thyroid follicular cell line Nthy-ori 3-1 cells, HCP5 expression level was significantly increased in ATC cell lines. Besides, HCP5 expression level was increased in ATC tissues when compared with adjacent normal tissues. Knockdown of HCP5 reduced cell viability, while elevated apoptotic rate and caspase-3/7 activity in ARO and SW1736 cells. MiR-128-3p was predicted to be a target gene of HCP5. The expression level of miR-128-3p was significantly decreased in ATC cells and tissues, as compared to Nthy-ori 3-1 cells and adjacent normal tissues, respectively. MiR-128-3p overexpression reduced ATC cell viability, and induced cell apoptosis. HCP5 directly bound to miR-128-3p and regulated the expression of miR-128-3p in ARO and SW1736 cells. Furthermore, the effects of HCP5 knockdown on ATC cell viability and apoptosis were attenuated by the inhibitor of miR-128-3p. These findings suggested that knockdown of HCP5 exerted anti-tumor effect via sponging miR-128-3p in ATC, which might provide a potential approach for the treatment of ATC.

Abstract
Background: Genetic variations associated with nonprogression of HIV infection to AIDS are enriched in psoriasis patients. HCP5 gene 335 T > G and chemokine C receptor type 5 (CCR5) gene Δ32 polymorphisms are associated with HIV nonprogression phenotype. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the association of HCP5 gene 335 T > G (rs2395029) and CCR5 gene Δ32 (rs333) polymorphisms with psoriasis vulgaris (PV). Materials and Methods: Genotype of HCP5 gene 335 T > G and CCR5 gene Δ32 polymorphisms were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and allele-specific PCR methods, respectively. Results: The frequency of HCP5 gene 335 T > G SNP was ~7 times higher in PV patients than in the control group (P = 1.49 × 10–8; odds ratio [OR] = 10.2; 0.95 confidence interval [CI]: 3.9–26.8). OR for the occurrence of HCP5 335 G allele in either homozygous or heterozygous genotype in PV patients was 13.1 (0.95 CI: 4.7–36.1). The strength of association was higher with moderate-to-severe subgroup (P = 3.29 × 10–9; OR = 18.4; 0.95 CI: 6.2–54.9) than with mild subgroup (P = 2.1 × 10–4; OR = 8.3; 0.95 CI: 2.6–23.3). In addition, the strength of association was higher with Type I (P = 9.53 × 10–8; OR = 15.3; 0.95 CI: 5.1–46.5) than with Type II subgroup (P = 6.8 × 10–6; OR = 11.0; 0.95 CI: 3.6–33.9). Type I gene Δ32 polymorphism was observed neither among psoriatic nor among healthy individuals. Conclusions: Our results indicate that HCP5 gene 335 T > G polymorphism and not CCR5 gene Δ32 polymorphism is associated with the increased risk of developing PV.

Abstract
In this paper, we aim at discovering genetic factors of psoriasis through searching for statistically significant SNP-SNP interactions exhaustively from two real psoriasis genome-wide association study datasets (phs000019.v1.p1 and phs000982.v1.p1) downloaded from the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes. To deal with the enormous search space, our search algorithm is accelerated with eight biological plausible interaction patterns and a pre-computed look-up table. After our search, we have discovered several SNPs having a stronger association to psoriasis when they are in combination with another SNP and these combinations may be non-linear interactions. Among the top 20 SNP-SNP interactions being found in terms of pairwise p-value and improvement metric value, we have discovered 27 novel potential psoriasis-associated SNPs where most of them are reported to be eQTLs of a number of known psoriasis-associated genes. On the other hand, we have inferred a gene network after selecting the top 10000 SNP-SNP interactions in terms of improvement metric value and we have discovered a novel long distance interaction between XXbac-BPG154L12.4 and RNU6-283P which is not a long distance haplotype and may be a new discovery. Finally, our experiments with the synthetic datasets have shown that our pre-computed look-up table technique can significantly speed up the search process.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition affecting diverse racial/ethnic groups throughout the world. Large population-based studies suggest that psoriasis occurs most often in individuals of European ancestry, followed by black and Hispanic individuals, although the true prevalence of psoriasis in non-white individuals is likely underestimated. Despite similarities in psoriasis between ethnic groups, there are notable differences in the presentation, quality-of-life impact, and treatment of psoriasis with important implications for the management of non-white individuals. Overall, heterogeneity in psoriasis susceptibility alleles, in combination with cultural and socioeconomic factors, may explain these differences. In this article, we review the epidemiology, clinical presentation, genetic polymorphisms, quality-of-life impact, and treatment nuances of psoriasis in patients with skin of color.

Abstract
IL-17 activates NF-κB and inducing expression of proinflammatory genes. IL-17 drives disease in autoimmune conditions, and anti-IL-17 antibodies have shown impressive success in the clinic. Although produced by lymphocytes, IL-17 predominantly signals in fibroblasts and epithelial cells. IL-17-driven inflammation is kept in check by negative feedback signaling molecules, including the ubiquitin editing enzyme A20, whose gene TNFΑIP3 is and similarly linked to autoimmune disease susceptibility. Accordingly, we hypothesized that ABIN-1 might play a role in negatively regulating IL-17 signaling activity. Indeed, ABIN-1 enhanced both tonic and IL-17-dependent NF-κB signaling in IL-17-responsive fibroblast cells. Interestingly, the inhibitory activities of ABIN-1 on IL-17 signaling were independent of A20. ABIN-1 is a known NF-κB target gene, and we found that IL-17-induced activation of NF-κB led to enhanced ABIN-1 mRNA expression and promoter activity. Surprisingly, however, the ABIN-1 protein was inducibly degraded following IL-17 signaling in a proteasome-dependent manner. Thus, ABIN-1, acting independently of A20, restricts both baseline and IL-17-induced inflammatory gene expression. We conclude that IL-17-induced signals lead to degradation of ABIN-1, thereby releasing a constitutive cellular brake on NF-κB activation.

EMBO Rep 2016; 17:1485-1497.

Abstract
K63- and Met1-linked ubiquitylation are crucial posttranslational modifications for TNF receptor signaling. These non-degradative ubiquitylations are counteracted by deubiquitinases (DUBs), such as the enzyme CYLD, resulting in an appropriate signal strength, but the regulation of this process remains incompletely understood. Here, we describe an interaction partner of CYLD, SPATA2, which we identified by a mass spectrometry screen. We find that SPATA2 interacts via its PUB domain with CYLD, while a PUB interaction motif (PIM) of SPATA2 interacts with the PUB domain of the LUBAC component HOIP SPATA2 is required for the recruitment of CYLD to the TNF receptor signaling complex upon TNFR stimulation. Moreover, SPATA2 acts as an allosteric activator for the K63- and M1-deubiquitinase activity of CYLD In consequence, SPATA2 substantially attenuates TNF-induced NF-κB and MAPK signaling. Conversely, SPATA2 is required for TNF-induced complex II formation, caspase activation, and apoptosis. Thus, this study identifies SPATA2 as an important factor in the TNF signaling pathway with a substantial role for the effects mediated by the cytokine.
