    Abstract: Background: The co-inhibitory molecule B7-H4 is located in the genomic regions associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) susceptibility. However, the correlation of B7-H4 with glycometabolism and dyslipidemia has never been studied. Objective: To explore the influence of B7-H4 polymorphism on the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and dyslipidemia in psoriasis. Methods: In this single-center cross-sectional study, we recruited 265 psoriatic patients receiving methotrexate (MTX) treatment. Thirteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in B7-H4 were genotyped. Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), lipoprotein (a) (LP(a)), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) were measured at baseline and week 12. Results: The GG genotype carriers of rs12025144 in B7-H4 had a higher prevalence of DM (57.14% vs. 17.71% vs. 18.67%, p = 0.0018), and had a poorer response to MTX in diabetic patients (p 〈 0.05), compared with AA or AG genotype carriers. The AG genotype of rs2066398 was associated with higher levels of pro-atherogenic lipids. MTX significantly downregulated the level of anti-atherogenic lipid ApoA1 in AA genotype carriers of rs2066398. Conclusions: The genotypes rs12025144 and rs2066398 in B7-H4 were correlated with a higher prevalence of DM and dyslipidemia in psoriasis, respectively.

    Abstract: Methotrexate (MTX) has a protective effect against cardiovascular diseases (CVD), but the mechanism is unclear. Objective To investigate the effect of MTX on lipid profiles and the difference between psoriasis without arthritis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods In this prospective study, we recruited 288 psoriatic patients (136 PsA and 152 PsO) who completed 12 weeks of MTX treatment. Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), lipoprotein A [LP(a)], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and ApoB were measured. Results Compared with sex- and age-matched healthy controls, psoriatic patients had significantly ( p 〈 0.0001) higher levels of proatherogenic lipids and lower levels of anti-atherogenic lipids. PsA patients had a higher ApoB/ApoA1 ratio than PsO patients ( p 〈 0.05). Stepwise regression analysis found a positive correlation between the inflammatory marker hCRP and the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI), ApoB/ApoA1 ratio, BMI, and smoking. ApoB was positively associated with concomitant arthritis, diabetes, and hypertension. MTX decreased the levels of pro-atherogenic and anti-atherogenic lipids. However, a significant reduction of the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio by MTX was only observed in male patients. Conclusion PsA patients had a significantly higher percentage of concomitant disease than PsO. The decrease of MTX on CVD might be related with sex. Trial registration ChiCTR2000036192

    Abstract: Background: Annexin A6 (AnxA6) is a lipid-binding protein that regulates cholesterol homeostasis and secretory pathways. However, the correlation of AnxA6 polymorphism with lipometabolism has never been studied in psoriasis. Objectives: To investigate the impact of AnxA6 polymorphism on lipid profiles and the expression of AnxA6 protein in both peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and lipometabolism in psoriasis. Methods: A total of 265 psoriatic patients received methotrexate (MTX) treatment for 12 weeks, after which their lipid profiles were determined by measuring total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs), lipoprotein (a) [LP(a)], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein (a)1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB). In addition, AnxA6 (rs11960458) was genotyped in 262 patients and the expression of AnxA6 in PBMCs was measured by Western blotting at baseline and week 8 post-MTX treatment. Results: The CC genotype carriers of rs11960458 had a lower expression of AnxA6 and lower levels of the pro-atherogenic lipids TC, LDL, and ApoB compared to TC genotype carriers. MTX significantly downregulated the levels of the anti-atherogenic lipids HDL-C and ApoA1 and the level of AnxA6 in TC genotype carriers, as well as the level of TGs in CC genotype carriers. Conclusions: The polymorphism of AnxA6, rs11960458, was statistically associated with the levels of pro-atherogenic lipids and with the downregulation of MTX on the levels of anti-atherogenic lipids and TGs in psoriasis.

    Abstract: BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methotrexate (MTX) is often used as a first-line system therapy and there is a need to determine its effect on whole blood viscosity (WBV) and plasma viscosity (PV) in psoriasis. METHODS A prospective, single-center, interventional study with a total of 111 psoriatic patients who received MTX therapy from October 22, 2018, to December 28, 2019, and 111 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Changes in WBV, PV, blood counts, liver and renal function were evaluated. RESULTS Psoriatic patients had significantly higher levels of WBV and relative viscosity (RV) at low shear rate (LSR), erythrocyte aggregation index (EAI), and PV than sex and age-matched healthy controls. PV was positively correlated with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), ESR was positively correlated with high sensitive C-reactive protein (hCRP). But only hCRP was positively associated with psoriasis area severity index (PASI) score. MTX significantly decreased the levels of PV, ESR, hCRP, and blood pressure (BP) in male patients, and the level of WBV in female patients. CONCLUSION: Sex-specific downregulation of MTX on WBV, PV, hCRP, and BP, indicating that the effect of MTX on the risk of cardiovascular disease was related with sex.

    Abstract: Background: Hyperhomocysteinemia has been reported in psoriasis. We investigated the effect of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), polymorphism and folic acid supplementation on serum homocysteine levels in psoriasis. Methods: Serum homocysteine levels were detected at baseline and at week 12 in 201 patients who were genotyped with MTHFR rs1801133 without and 93 psoriatic patients with folate supplement. Results: TT genotype carriers of MTHFR rs1801133 had significantly higher serum homocysteine levels at baseline and at week 12, a better PASI 75 response rate at week 8, and a higher PASI 90 response rate at week 12 than the CT and CC genotype carriers. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that serum homocysteine concentration at baseline was significantly associated with sex, weight, PASI score at baseline, and the rs1801133 genotype. The significant upregulation of serum homocysteine levels after treatment with methotrexate (MTX) was only observed in male CT and CC genotype carriers and female CC genotype carriers. In contrast, folic acid supplementation significantly decreased serum homocysteine levels after MTX treatment but only in male psoriatic patients. Conclusions: The effect of MTX on serum homocysteine levels was associated with the polymorphism of MTHFR rs1801133 and sex. Folic acid supplementation only decreased serum homocysteine levels in male psoriatic patients.
