Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is a genetically determined systemic skin disease, although environmental trigger factors are required for disease manifestation. Some of these triggers, such as stress, infections and drug exposure, have been identified. OBJECTIVES To explore the role of early nutrition as a risk factor for the development of psoriasis. METHODS Parents in the All Babies in Southeast Sweden (ABIS) prospective birth cohort (n = 16 415) answered questionnaires at birth and when their children were aged 1 and 3 years. A diagnosis of psoriasis was determined from the Swedish National Patient Register and National Drug Prescription Register. Statistical analyses were conducted using custom-written R scripts. RESULTS Individuals breastfed for < 4 months and who received infant formula before 4 months of age had a higher risk of psoriasis [odds ratio (OR) 1.84 (P = 0.02) and OR 1.88 (P = 0.02), respectively]. At the 3-year follow-up, the increased consumption of fish, especially from the Baltic Sea, increased the risk of psoriasis (OR 9.61; P = 0.003). In addition, the risk of psoriasis increased following the consumption of a large volume of milk (OR 2.53; P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Our study underscores, for the first time, the impact of very early nutrition on the manifestation of psoriasis through early adulthood. Exclusive breastfeeding for 4 months appears to be protective.

Abstract
Background Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and psoriasis are frequently observed to co-occur in clinical settings. However, the causal associations and underlying mechanisms between PBC and psoriasis remain poorly defined. Methods In this study, we conducted bidirectional MR analysis to explore the causal relationship between PBC and psoriasis using four MR methods: inverse-variance weighted, MR-Egger regression, weighted median, and weighted mode. Sensitivity analyses were carried out, employing different models and testing methods for comparison to assess the influence of heterogeneity and pleiotropy on our findings and to confirm the robustness of these results. Results A causal relationship between the risk of PBC and psoriasis was identified, as confirmed by IVW analysis (OR: 1.081, 95%CI: 1.028~1.137, P<0.05). The other three MR methods also produced similar results. However, psoriasis did not have a causal effect on PBC risk (OR: 1.022, 95%CI: 0.935~1.118, P>0.05). The intercept of MR-Egger regression was 0.0013 (P>0.05), indicating that genetic pleiotropy did not influence the results. Additionally, the leave-one-out analysis demonstrated the robustness of our MR findings. Conclusion This study reveals a causal relationship between PBC and psoriasis, with PBC increasing the risk of psoriasis, but not the reverse. This potential causal relationship offers a new perspective on the etiology of PBC.

Abstract
Impaired autophagy, due to the dysfunction of lysosomal organelles, contributes to maladaptive responses by pathways central to the immune system. Deciphering the immune-inflammatory ecosystem is essential, but remains a major challenge in terms of understanding the mechanisms responsible for autoimmune diseases. Accumulating evidence implicates a role that is played by a dysfunctional autophagy-lysosomal pathway (ALP) and an immune niche in psoriasis (Ps), one of the most common chronic skin diseases, characterized by the co-existence of autoimmune and autoinflammatory responses. The dysregulated autophagy associated with the defective lysosomal system is only one aspect of Ps pathogenesis. It probably cannot fully explain the pathomechanism involved in Ps, but it is likely important and should be seriously considered in Ps research. This review provides a recent update on discoveries in the field. Also, it sheds light on how the dysregulation of intracellular pathways, coming from modulated autophagy and endolysosomal trafficking, characteristic of key players of the disease, i.e., skin-resident cells, as well as circulating immune cells, may be responsible for immune impairment and the development of Ps.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drugs and vaccines have been less studied as inducing or aggravating factors for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) compared with psoriasis. Thus, the present study collected and summarized the publications to date about this issue. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature search through the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases to identify all reports on potential drug- and vaccine-related PsA events until 28 February 2023. RESULTS In total, 179 cases from 79 studies were eligible for study. Drugs commonly reported include coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mRNA vaccines (6 cases), bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine (3 cases), interferon (18 cases), immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) (19 cases), and biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) (127 cases). Drugs causing psoriasis may also induce or aggravate PsA (6 cases). BDMARD-related PsA mostly occurred in a "paradoxical" setting, in which the bDMARDs approved for the treatment of psoriasis induce or aggravate PsA. The reported latency may be delayed up to 2 years. Peripheral arthritis (82.3%) was the most common manifestation of drug- and vaccine-related PsA, followed by dactylitis (29.1%), enthesitis (23.4%), and spondyloarthritis (17.7%). CONCLUSIONS Drugs and vaccines may be implicated in the aggravation of PsA. Possible mechanisms include cytokine imbalance, immune dysregulation, or inadequate PsA treatment response compared with psoriasis. Most reports are case based without controls, so more studies are needed to further prove the causality. However, early recognition of factors causing or aggravating PsA is important to prevent the irreversible joint damage.

Abstract
Impetigo herpetiformis is a rare skin disease that most often occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy. It is currently considered as a form of generalized pustular psoriasis and the typical skin lesions comprise small sterile pustules. Here, a case of impetigo herpetiformis in the second trimester of pregnancy after 7 weeks of hydroxychloroquine administration for suspected Sjogren's syndrome is reported. Treatment with anti-infective, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive medication did not improve the patient's condition. Following delivery of a live male by emergency caesarean section at 29 weeks' gestation, the rash was reported to be completely resolved by 3 months postpartum. Previously published cases of impetigo herpetiformis in the second trimester of pregnancy that were retrieved from a search of the PubMed database are also reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
Background Psoriasis (PSO) is a common chronic autoimmune skin disease with a significant psycho-socio-economic burden. Some antidepressants (ADs) such as fluoxetine and bupropion can induce or exacerbate PSO. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between ADs history before PSO onset, and the risk of PSO induction, in Isfahan province, Iran. Materials and Methods In this case-control study, 80 patients with PSO were selected by non-probability sampling method, and 80 healthy individuals were selected using simple random sampling. They were interviewed and medical information was recorded. Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis tests for dichotomous or categorical data, and independent-sample t test for continuous data were used. Statistical significance was taken as P ≤ 0.05. Results In this case-control study, a total of 160 individuals, 80 participants in each group, were included. The mean age of the total samples was 44.8 ± 16 years. Forty-three percent of the individuals were women. PSO familial history in the cases was significantly higher than the control group (OR = 11.94, P = 0.001). It was revealed that use of ADs by patients before PSO induction, was greater than the controls (OR = 2.78, P = 0.058). Conclusions Past history of ADs in the cases before PSO onset, was higher than the controls, indicating a possible association between ADs and the risk of PSO induction. This study can be effective to pay more attention to the possible complications of ADs and PSO risk factors. Accurate knowledge of PSO risk factors will be useful for better management and morbidity reduction.

Abstract
Introduction Pustular psoriasis of pregnancy (PPP), also known as impetigo herpetiformis (IH), is a rare variant of generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) in pregnancy. It typically occurs in the third trimester and is a life-threatening condition for both the pregnant mother and the fetus if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Drug-induced PPP has been reported in sporadic case reports. Here we present a case of first-trimester PPP occurring after applying drugs including chloroquine, which we consider a possible culprit triggering the disease. Case report A 29-year-old female was admitted to our department at 45 days gestation with sudden onset of fever and widespread erythematous pustules for 9 days. She had been on medications including hydroxychloroquine before onset. The eruptions and systemic symptoms were controlled with high-dose systemic steroids; however, she was detected to have a stillbirth, and underwent dilation and curettage of the uterine. At the latest follow-up about 2 years after her admission, she reported to have delivered a healthy baby about 1 month previously. Conclusions Chloroquine has potential to lead to PPP in the first trimester of pregnancy. Further studies are warranted to investigate the etiology and treatment of PPP to facilitate early recognition and optimal management of this relatively rare dermatosis in pregnancy.

Abstract
AIM We aimed to investigate French pharmacovigilance data. The objective was to characterize psoriatic conditions occurred after BB exposure and bright to light a possible pharmacovigilance signal. METHODS Spontaneous reports of psoriatic conditions recorded in the French national Pharmacovigilance database (FPVD) between 1985 and 2019 were extracted. We performed a retrospective, descriptive analysis of reports linked to BB exposure. Association between psoriasis risk and BB exposure was assessed using a case/non-case study. RESULTS Two hundred and twenty-five reports of psoriatic conditions after BB exposure were recorded in the FPVD during the study period. Both, cardioselective and non-cardioselective, topical and systemic, BBs are involved. Therapeutic indication of BB was mainly hypertension Mean time to onset was 5 months and outcome was favorable in 68% after BB discontinuation. These features were concordant with those of literature reports. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was 8.95 (95%CI 7.75 - 10.33). CONCLUSION We highlighted a statistically significant disproportionality which constitutes a pharmacovigilance signal. Psoriasis risk with BBs is a class effect. Increasing surveillance during the 1st year of BB exposure is needed.

Abstract
More than 50 years after Propranolol was introduced to the pharmaceutical market as a drug that can lower the heart rate, beta-blockers (BAB) are still widely used in the pharmacotherapy of cardiovascular diseases. However, the use of BAB has a number of limitations, first of all, due to adverse drug events (AE) that develop during their use. The purpose of our review was to study the features of the BAB AE manifested by injuries of the skin and its appendages. The clinical manifestations of them are the development or exacerbation of psoriasis, lichen planus, contact dermatitis, acrocyanosis, Raynaud's disease, alopecia, hyperhidrosis, vitiligo, anaphylaxis, and allergic skin reactions. True medicinal psoriasis occurs in patients taking BAB with no family or previous history and most often mimics erythrodermic psoriasis and palmar-plantar pustular psoriasis. Systemic use of BAB can also be accompanied by exacerbation of vitiligo. In patients with segmental vitiligo, the results of Doppler flowmetry and iontophoresis showed increased blood flow in vitiligo foci compared with normal skin. The development of anaphylactic reactions against the background of BAB therapy may be due to the modulation of adenylate cyclase, which can affect the release of anaphylactogenic mediators, as well as a decrease in the severity of cardiovascular compensatory changes. The peculiarities of the development of such reactions may be the resistance of patients to traditional treatment, which is due to the development of paradoxical reflex vagotonic effects when using adrenaline. Some of the mentioned AE may pose a potential threat to the life and health of the patient and therefore require additional discussion.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disorder which involves complex interactions between genes, keratinocytes, T-cells and inflammatory cells. It affects 2-3% population worldwide. Molecular biology and cellular immunology of psoriasis, when linked with biotechnology and genetic studies can help researchers to understand the pathophysiology of psoriasis. T-cells activation, keratinocyte hyperproliferation, and angiogenesis are the core mechanisms entailed in the development of psoriasis lesion. Investigators are trying to overcome the challenges of complex pathophysiology pathways involved in this disorder. The different possible hypotheses for its pathophysiology such as growth factors, enzymes, inflammation, and genetic factors mediated pathophysiology have been described in the present review paper in detail. Clinically available drugs only control the symptoms of psoriasis but are not effective for the treatment of the disorder completely and are also associated with some side effects such as itching, renal disorders, hematologic, nonmelanoma skin cancer, pulmonary, gastrointestinal toxicity, etc. This paper made an effort to understand the pathophysiological targets, discuss the research done so far and the treatments available for the effective management of psoriasis.

Abstract
Although a considerable volume of data supporting induction or aggravation of psoriasis because of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor use exists, it remains insufficient for definitive conclusions. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the association between ACE inhibitor use and psoriasis incidence through a systematic literature review and meta-analysis. We searched for qualifying studies across PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the strength of the association between ACE inhibitor use and psoriasis incidence. Eight studies with a total of 54,509 patients with a psoriasis diagnosis were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled OR for psoriasis incidence among ACE inhibitor users was 1.52 (95% CI, 1.16–2.00) compared to that among non-users. From subgroup analysis by continent, the OR for ACE inhibitor users versus non-users was 2.37 (95% CI 1.28–4.37) in Asia. Per the subgroup analysis by climate, the OR for ACE inhibitor users vs non-users in dry climate was 3.45 (95% CI: 2.05–5.79) vs 1.32 (95% CI 1.01–1.73) in temperate climate. Our results reveal a significant association between ACE inhibitor use and psoriasis incidence.

Is Metformin a Possible Beneficial Treatment for Psoriasis? A Scoping Review. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11040251. [PMID: 33808460 PMCID: PMC8065978 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11040251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Revised: 03/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory condition with genetic, immunological, and metabolic etiology. The link between psoriasis and diabetes mellitus has been shown in genetic predisposition, environmental influences, inflammatory pathways, and insulin resistance, resulting in end-organ damage in both conditions. Because comorbidities often accompany psoriasis, the therapeutic management of the disease must also take into consideration the comorbidities. Given that metformin’s therapeutic role in psoriasis is not yet fully elucidated, we raised the question of whether metformin is a viable alternative for the treatment of psoriasis. We conducted this scoping review by searching for evidence in PubMed, Cochrane, and Scopus databases, and we used an extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Current evidence suggests that metformin is safe to use in psoriasis. Studies have shown an excellent therapeutic response to metformin in patients with psoriasis and comorbidities such as diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and obesity. There is no clear evidence supporting metformin monotherapy in patients with psoriasis without comorbidities. There is a need to further evaluate metformin in larger clinical trials, as a therapy in psoriasis.

Abstract
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), one of the oldest drugs used in rheumatology, came recently into attention as one of the potential therapies tested for the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 disease treatment. Used initially as an antimalarial, then translated to rheumatic diseases, HCQ has been used in a wide range of pathologies, including infectious diseases, immune disorders, diabetes, dyslipidemia, or neoplasia. Regarding systemic diseases, HCQ is the mainstay treatment for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), where, according to last European guidelines, it is proposed to all SLE patients unless contraindicated or with side effects. HCQ proved positive impact in SLE on robust outcomes, such as accrual damage, disease activity and survival, but also pleiomorphic effects, including decrease in the need for glucocorticoids, reduction in the risk of neonatal lupus, lower fasting glucose and protection against diabetes, thrombotic risk, dyslipidemia, infections, etc. Moreover, HCQ can be used during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Besides SLE, the role for HCQ in the anti-phospholipid syndrome and Sjögren's disease is still under debate. On the contrary, recent advances showed only limited interest for rheumatoid arthritis, especially due the lack of structural damage prevention. There are still no strong data to sustain the HCQ use in other systemic diseases. In this review, we summarised the utility and efficacy of HCQ in different clinical conditions relevant for rheumatology practice.

Abstract
Elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis encompass those with elderly-onset disease, over 60 years of age, but also those with earlier disease onset who entered old age. Considering the age-related changes of the immune system, possible frailty, susceptibility to infection and concomitant comorbidity that implies multiple medicines, the treatment of these diseases in elderly patients can be challenging. Interleukin inhibitors have been shown to be an efficient and safe treatment for these diseases. However, elderly patients with these diseases were often included in the pivotal clinical trials for interleukin inhibitors in numbers insufficient to determine whether they responded differently from younger subjects. The aim of this paper was to review the findings on the efficacy and safety of interleukin inhibitor treatment in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and psoriatic arthritis. The findings suggest that, for all the interleukin inhibitors reviewed herein, used in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis, or with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, the efficacy was comparable to younger patients. Furthermore, the incidence of reported adverse events was similar in these two age groups. Severe adverse events, which were related to sarilumab treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and secukinumab treatment for psoriasis, were higher in elderly patients. The reviewed findings suggest that the interleukin inhibitors approved and currently in use in clinical practice for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and psoriatic arthritis can be considered a safe and efficient option for these diseases in elderly patients.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is associated with psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease. About 30% of patients with psoriasis develop PsA, and some of these patients are children and young adults. Because onset can be gradual, PsA signs and symptoms are easily attributed to other causes, especially in younger patients. This article discusses the assessment, pathophysiology, and diagnosis of PsA and informs nurses how best to support patients with PsA.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease affecting approximately 2% of the world population. A complex interplay of genetic predisposition and risk factors contributes to the risk of its onset. Several xenobiotics have been implicated in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Drugs are among the most investigated trigger factors; strong association with disease induction or exacerbation has been reported for β-blockers, lithium, NSAIDs and ACE inhibitors, all of which are commonly used in the management of various comorbidities in psoriasis patients. Furthermore, inhibitors of TNF have a well-documented potential for triggering new-onset psoriasis when used for other indications (e.g. Crohn's disease or rheumatoid arthritis), while post-marketing data have revealed the same association for ustekinumab. Several other drugs have been connected with psoriasis, but the evidence is less compelling. Smoking and alcohol have been reported to increase the risk for occurrence of psoriasis, but can also affect unfavorably the course of the disease and its response to treatment. Furthermore, exposure to secondhand smoke, especially in childhood, also mediates the risk. Emerging data now suggest that air pollution also has a detrimental effect on skin disease, including psoriasis, but this association needs further investigation. Understanding of the toxic effect of xenobiotics on the initiation and clinical course of psoriasis can contribute to its better control, as it can help with the avoidance of triggering factors and, in some cases, influence the success of pharmacological treatment. It, therefore, has an important place in the comprehensive management of psoriasis.

Abstract
Beta-blockers are a commonly prescribed medication, but the increase in use goes hand in hand with increasing side effects; one of particular interest lately has been its dermatological reactions. Although rare, beta-blockers can exacerbate pre-existing psoriasis and also cause de novo psoriasis in patients naïve to the disease. The mechanism by which this occurs is still unclear, although numerous articles have been published throughout the years as to how this unusual effect takes place. The most common mechanism suggests that beta-blockers cause intracellular changes in calcium, affecting both keratinocyte proliferation and granulocyte function via decreased cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels. Several inflammatory mediators are known to play a role, as well as reduced expression and desensitization of the beta-adrenergic receptor itself. We discuss these posed pathways in-depth and how each contributes to the worsening or formation of new psoriasis. With this knowledge, future physicians may be more mindful of this side effect should it occur, and why they occur, to better manage our patients on this widely used medication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease caused by antibodies against the hemidesmosomal BP180 and/or BP230 proteins. There is an increasing evidence that the use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, also known as gliptins, increases the risk for BP. The gliptins more frequently associated with BP are vildagliptin and sitagliptin. Clinical, immunological and pathological features of gliptin-associated BP have been reported to be distinct, compared to classic BP. METHODS In this study, 15 gliptin-associated BP (g-BP) cases have been compared with 16 consecutive idiopathic BP (i-BP) to clarify whether g-BP has distinctive clinical and immunopathological characteristics. Comorbidities, concomitant treatments, latency of the onset of the disease and the time to achieve the remission were also considered. RESULTS The mean latency from drug intake to g-BP appearance was 9.4 months (median 10, inter-quartile range [IQR] 6-12). There were no differences in sex and age prevalence between the two groups (g-BP median age 77 years, IQR: 70-84; i-BP: 81 years, IQR: 72-86). There were no differences as far clinical presentation including disease severity, lesions types (urticarial and bullous) or mucosal involvement between g-BP and i-BP cases. The median antibody anti-BP180 and anti-BP230 titers was also similar between the two groups with 29.1 UI/mL (IQR: 12.9-65.3) and 11.8 UI/mL (IQR: 1.7-26.3), respectively. Gliptins were withdrawn in ten out of 15 patients and remission was achieved with systemic corticosteroids (0.3-0.7 mg/Kg daily) alone or in association with doxycycline (100-200 mg daily) within a mean of 8 months. CONCLUSIONS A non-inflammatory phenotype with less erythema, fewer urticarial lesions and fewer eosinophils in skin lesions has been associated with gliptins in selected Japanese BP populations. As reported in European studies, no significant differences among the considered variables in the g-BP and i-BP cases have been found in our study.

Abstract
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, also known as antimalarial drugs, are widely used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases and have recently become the focus of attention because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Rheumatologists have been using antimalarials to manage patients with chronic immune-mediated inflammatory rheumatic diseases for decades. It is an appropriate time to review their immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory mechanisms impact on disease activity and survival of systemic lupus erythematosus patient, including antiplatelet effect, metabolic and lipid benefits. We also discuss possible adverse effects, adding a practical and comprehensive approach to monitoring rheumatic patients during treatment with these drugs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) can induce or aggravate psoriasis. This risk is not specified in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) of some drugs of this class, such as captopril or enalapril. We aimed to investigate the association between psoriasis and ACEI exposure. METHODS We analyzed spontaneous reports recorded in the French national Pharmacovigilance Database (FPVD) from 1985 to 31 December 2018. The association between psoriasis and ACEI exposure was assessed using the case/non-case method. We also reviewed literature reports. RESULTS One hundred reports of psoriasis after ACEI exposure were registered in the FPVD. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was 2.40 (95% CI 1.96-2.95). Time to onset was < 1 year in 67% of reports. Outcome was favorable in 73% of reports after ACEI discontinuation. Almost all ACEIs were concerned. In the literature, we found 21 published reports of psoriasis with ACEIs. Time to onset ranged from 1 week to 4 months. Outcome was also favorable after ACEI discontinuation in over half of the literature reports. CONCLUSIONS We found a statistically significant association between psoriasis and ACEI, which constitutes a potential safety signal. The risk of psoriasis is a class effect, time to onset is less than 1 year, and outcome is favorable after ACEI discontinuation. Psoriasis should be mentioned in the SmPCs of all ACEIs, and healthcare professionals should be informed about this risk.

Abstract
This study examined the association between digoxin use and subsequent psoriasis risk using a population-based database in Taiwan. This cohort study enrolled 15 545 digoxin users and 15 545 propensity score-matched non-users from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Each patient was independently followed up for 5 years to confirm whether they had been diagnosed with psoriasis. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate psoriasis risk among digoxin users. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also performed. The psoriasis incidence rates were 3.02 and 2.27 per 1000 person-years among digoxin users and non-users, respectively. After adjustment for confounders, psoriasis risk was significantly higher among digoxin users than among non-users. Notably, in most subgroup analyses, digoxin use tended to increase psoriasis risk, particularly among patients with heart failure, diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidaemia. Moreover, significantly increased psoriasis risk was noted over 2, 3, 4 and 5 years of digoxin use. In conclusion, our findings confirm that digoxin use increases subsequent psoriasis risk. Thus, physicians should be aware of this association and accordingly estimate the risks and benefits of digoxin use. Nevertheless, some patient variables, such as body mass index and obesity, were unavailable in this study. The findings in this study should be elucidated carefully because the potential effects of these factors could not be considered.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-1 signaling leads to production of pro-inflammatory mediators and is regulated by receptor endocytosis. Lysosomotropic drugs have been linked to increased pro-inflammatory responses under sterile inflammatory conditions but the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here, we report that lysosomotropic drugs potentiate pro-inflammatory effects in response to IL-1β via a mechanism involving reactive oxygen species, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and reduced IL-1 receptor internalization. Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine increased IL-1β-induced CXCL8 secretion in macrophages which was critically dependent on the lysosomotropic character and inhibition of macroautophagy but independent from the NLRP3 inflammasome. Co-stimulation with the autophagy inducer interferon gamma attenuated CXCL8 release. Other lysosomotropic drugs like bafilomycin A1, fluoxetine and chlorpromazine but also the endocytosis inhibitor dynasore showed similar pro-inflammatory responses. Increased cell surface expression of IL-1 receptor suggests reduced receptor degradation in the presence of lysosomotropic drugs. Our findings provide new insights into a potentially crucial immunoregulatory mechanism in macrophages that may explain how lysosomotropic drugs drive sterile inflammation.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and Th17 cytokines are important mediators of inflammation. Treatment with beta-adrenoceptor (ADRB) antagonists (beta-blockers) is associated with induction or aggravation of psoriasis-like skin inflammation, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Herein, we identify lysosomotropic beta-blockers as critical inducers of IL23A in human monocyte-derived Langerhans-like cells under sterile-inflammatory conditions. Cytokine release was not mediated by cAMP, suggesting the involvement of ADRB-independent pathways. NFKB/NF-κB and MAPK14/p38 activation was required for propranolol-induced IL23A secretion whereas the NLRP3 inflammasome was dispensable. MAPK14 regulated recruitment of RELB to IL23A promoter regions. Without affecting the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, propranolol increased lysosomal pH and induced a late-stage block in macroautophagy/autophagy. Propranolol specifically induced reactive oxygen species production, which was critical for IL23A secretion, in Langerhans-like cells. Our findings provide insight into a potentially crucial immunoregulatory mechanism in cutaneous dendritic cells that may explain how lysosomotropic drugs regulate inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Induction of psoriasis following administration of beta blocker containing eye drops has rarely been documented. We report eight cases of psoriasis triggered by timolol eye drops. Since the clinical and histopathological features of this drug reaction are indistinguishable from those of idiopathic psoriasis, a thorough drug history should be taken in all patients, especially elderly ones, with recent onset of psoriasis.

Abstract
Psoriasis is an immune-mediated genetic skin disease. The underlying pathomechanisms involve complex interaction between the innate and adaptive immune system. T cells interact with dendritic cells, macrophages, and keratinocytes, which can be mediated by their secreted cytokines. In the past decade, biologics targeting tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-23, and IL-17 have been developed and approved for the treatment of psoriasis. These biologics have dramatically changed the treatment and management of psoriasis. In contrast, various triggering factors can elicit the disease in genetically predisposed individuals. Recent studies suggest that the exacerbation of psoriasis can lead to systemic inflammation and cardiovascular comorbidity. In addition, psoriasis may be associated with other auto-inflammatory and auto-immune diseases. In this review, we summarize the risk factors, which can be divided into two groups (namely, extrinsic and intrinsic risk factors), responsible for the onset and exacerbation of psoriasis in order to facilitate its prevention.

Abstract
β-Blockers are a widely utilised class of medication. They have been in use for a variety of systemic disorders including hypertension, heart failure and intention tremors. Their use in dermatology has garnered growing interest with the discovery of their therapeutic effects in the treatment of haemangiomas, their potential positive effects in wound healing, Kaposi sarcoma, melanoma and pyogenic granuloma, and, more recently, pemphigus. Since β-blockers are deployed in a variety of disorders, which have cutaneous co-morbidities such as psoriasis, their pertinence to dermatologists cannot be overstated. Likewise, β-blockers, like any other drug category, carry risks of side effects, some of which are dermatologic. These include triggering and exacerbation of psoriasis, psoriatic and rheumatoid arthritis, anaphylaxis, contact dermatitis, occupational contact dermatitis, Raynaud's disease, alopecia, lichen planus-like drug eruption, hyperhydrosis and vitiligo. While recent articles have focussed on the positive uses of β-blockers, it may also be wise to call our attention to the potential dermatologic adverse effects that may follow β-blocker use, as well as possible therapeutic approaches to these. This short review will focus on those dermatoses resulting from β-blocker use, which have an immunologic basis.

Abstract
A 65-year-old woman presented to our rheumatology clinic with pain and swelling of multiple joints of her hands. After a thorough evaluation, she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and was started on hydroxychloroquine therapy. A week later, she presented to our clinic with an acute condition and reported that after taking hydroxychloroquine for a few days she developed multiple rashes, most prominent at skin folds around her breasts, neck, axillae and buttocks. The rashes were characteristic of inverse psoriasis. Hydroxychloroquine was discontinued and the patient was started on methotrexate therapy that resulted in resolution of her rashes in a week.

Abstract
Objective Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) use in prostate cancer (PCa) patients has been reported to exacerbate the course of psoriasis. We aimed to assess the impact of ADT on the subsequent risk of psoriasis. Methods We utilized data from the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan between 1996 and 2013. In total, 17,168 patients with PCa were identified; 5,141 ADT patients comprised the study group with 5,141 matched non-ADT controls. We used 1:1 propensity score-matched analysis. The demographic characteristics and comorbidities of the patients were analyzed; Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate the HRs for the risk of psoriasis. Results Eighty-nine (0.87%) patients with newly diagnosed psoriasis were identified. Compared with non-ADT patients, ADT patients had similar risk of subsequent psoriasis with an HR of 0.95 (95% CI 0.63-1.45; P=0.816). However, a higher risk of psoriasis was observed in angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors patients (adjusted HR 2.14, 95% CI 1.09-4.20; P<0.05). Conclusion ADT use did not increase risk of psoriasis in patients with PCa. Further studies are warranted to assess the clinical significance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several case studies have reported an association between antifungal drug use and psoriasis risk. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the association between terbinafine/itraconazole exposure and psoriasis incidence. METHODS Among patients with onychomycosis in the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 3831 incident psoriasis cases were identified during 2004-2010 and compared with 3831 age- and sex-matched controls with the same look-back period. Multivariate conditional logistic regression was used for the analysis. RESULTS The psoriasis cases were significantly more likely than matched controls to have used terbinafine or itraconazole (59.85 vs. 42.70%, respectively; p < 0.0001). After adjusting for potential confounders and cumulative duration of antifungal drug prescription, terbinafine/itraconazole use was associated with an increased psoriasis risk (adjusted odds ratio 1.33, 95% confidence interval 1.15-1.54). The association was stronger for more recent drug exposure (adjusted odds ratio 2.96, 95% confidence interval 2.25-3.90 for ≤ 90 days before the sampling date; adjusted odds ratio 1.04, 95% confidence interval 0.89-1.22 for > 360 days). In a comparison of patients receiving terbinafine or itraconazole only, psoriasis risk was higher for itraconazole (adjusted odds ratio 1.21, 95% confidence interval 1.05-1.40). CONCLUSION This large population-based case-control analysis showed that exposure to terbinafine or itraconazole is associated with an increased risk of incident psoriasis. The finding of an increased psoriasis risk for antifungal drug users, particularly for itraconazole, deserves attention in clinical practice although further prospective studies are necessary to confirm our findings and clarify the biological mechanisms that underlie these associations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) can induce or exacerbate psoriasis. Psoriasis is unlisted in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) of ARBs. We aimed to investigate the association between psoriasis and ARB exposure. METHODS We reviewed spontaneous reports recorded in the French national Pharmacovigilance Database (FPVD). The association between psoriasis and ARB exposure was assessed using the case/non-case method. We also analyzed literature reports. RESULTS We identified 89 reports of psoriasis during ARB exposure in the FPVD. Time to onset was most often less than 1 year. Outcome was favorable in 67% of reports after ARB discontinuation. Almost all ARBs were concerned. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) for psoriasis with this therapeutic class was 4.86 (95%CI 3.92-6.03). In the literature, we found 14 published reports of psoriasis with ARB exposure. Time to onset ranged from 6 weeks to 9 months. Outcome was also favorable after ARB discontinuation in the literature. CONCLUSIONS This underestimated adverse drug reaction is a class effect, time to onset is most often less than 1 year and outcome seems favorable after ARB discontinuation. The case/non-case approach highlights a potential safety signal. The SmPC of ARBs should be updated, increased awareness among healthcare professionals is warranted.

Abstract
Crohn’s disease is difficult to manage and often requires multiple medications. While these drugs vastly improve quality of life, physicians must monitor for adverse events. We report a case of a flare of inverse psoriasis after 15 months of treatment with ustekinumab. This is the third reported case of a flare of drug-induced psoriasis with ustekinumab, and it is the first reported case with an inverse presentation; however, the clinical picture is confounded by concomitant use of hydroxychloroquine. Inverse psoriasis is a rare variant of drug-induced psoriasis of which physicians must be cognizant while treating patients with Crohn’s disease.

Abstract
Background Psoriasis is a common disorder of the skin, immune system, and joints that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. It can be aggravated or induced by drugs. Objectives To identify the major drugs implicated in inducing or exacerbating psoriasis and to discuss their characteristics. Methods We performed a PubMed literature search for reviews and case reports on drugs that exacerbate or induce psoriasis. Articles were screened by title and abstract and then examined for their findings and references. Results Drugs most often reported to exacerbate or induce psoriasis were β-blockers, lithium, synthetic antimalarials, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, interferons, tetracyclines, tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors, and steroid withdrawal. Conclusions Characterizing drugs that induce or exacerbate psoriasis by latency and type of psoriatic eruption can help guide clinical reasoning. Although a relatively uncommon occurrence, psoriatic lesions can be caused by drugs, allowing astute physicians to recognize and change their management plans accordingly.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with both local and systemic components. Genome-wide approaches have identified more than 60 psoriasis-susceptibility loci, but genes are estimated to explain only one-third of the heritability in psoriasis, suggesting additional, yet unidentified, sources of heritability. Epigenetic modifications have been linked to psoriasis and altered DNA methylation patterns in psoriatic versus healthy skin have been reported in whole-skin biopsies. In this study, focusing on epigenetic modifications in the psoriatic uninvolved skin, we compared the lesional and non-lesional epidermis from psoriasis patients with epidermis from healthy controls. We performed an exhaustive genome-wide DNA methylation profiling using reduced representation bisulfite sequencing, which interrogates the methylation status of approximately 3-4 million CpG sites. More than 2,000 strongly differentially methylated sites were identified and a striking overrepresentation of the Wnt and cadherin pathways among the differentially methylated sites was found. In particular, we observe a strong differential methylation in several psoriasis candidate genes. A substantial number of differentially methylated sites present in the uninvolved versus healthy epidermis suggests the presence of a pre-psoriatic state in the clinically healthy skin type. Our exploratory study represents a starting point for identifying biomarkers for psoriasis-prone skin before disease onset.

Abstract
Exposure to certain drugs can elicit an induction or exacerbation of psoriasis. Although well-conducted systematic studies on drug-related psoriasis are mostly lacking, traditionally strong associations have been documented for beta-blockers, lithium, antimalarial drugs such as (hydroxy)chloroquine, interferons, imiquimod, and terbinafine. More recently, new associations have been reported for monoclonal antibody- and small-molecule-based targeted therapies used for oncological and immunological indications, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonists and anti-programmed cell death protein 1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. Recognizing potential drug-related psoriasis is of clinical relevance to allow an optimal management of psoriasis. However, in clinical practice, identifying medication-related exacerbations and induction of psoriasis can be challenging. The clinical and histopathological features of drug-provoked psoriasis may differ little from that of “classical” nondrug-related forms of psoriasis. In addition, the latency period between start of the medication and onset of psoriasis can be significantly long for some drugs. Assessment of the Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale could be used as a practical tool to better differentiate drug-related psoriasis. The first step in the management of drug-related psoriasis is cessation and replacement of the offending drug when deemed clinically possible. However, the induced psoriasis skin lesions may persist after treatment withdrawal. Additional skin-directed treatment options for drug-related psoriasis follows the conventional psoriasis treatment guidelines and includes topical steroids and vitamin D analogs, ultraviolet phototherapy, systemic treatments, such as acitretin, methotrexate, and fumaric acid esters, and biological treatments.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic, recurrent, and relatively common inflammatory dermatologic condition, which demonstrates various clinical manifestations including hair loss. It was once believed that alopecia was not a presentation of scalp psoriasis, but it is now widely accepted that psoriatic alopecia exists. Although the majority of patients get hair regrowth, it can potentially lead to permanent hair loss. Herein, we report a case of 26-year-old female patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who presented with scalp hair loss and nonpruritic scaly plaques on the scalp. Her clinical presentation, dermoscopic, and histopathologic findings were consistent with psoriatic alopecia. Additionally, we also described a novel scalp dermoscopic pattern of “patchy dotted vessels” which we detected in the lesion of scalp psoriasis.

Case Rep Dermatol 2016; 8:369-373. [PMID: 28303101 PMCID: PMC5260511 DOI: 10.1159/000455021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2016] [Accepted: 12/08/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Propranolol, a nonselective blocker of β-adrenergic receptors, has become the first-line treatment for complicated infantile hemangiomas. Therefore, its use in the pediatric population has expanded in recent years. In adults, β-blockers have been reported to be the most common causative agents for drug-induced psoriasis. In infants treated with propranolol for infantile hemangioma, the onset of psoriasiform diaper rash has not yet been reported. Here, to the best of our knowledge, we report the first case of psoriasiform diaper rash possibly induced by oral propranolol in an 18-month-old girl with no family history of psoriasis.
