Abstract

Background and Design: Pentraxin 3 (PTX 3), an acute phase protein, plays an important role in activation of innate immunity and in the regulation of inflammatory reactions. Thus, considering the importance of PTX 3 in immune and inflammatory responses, it has been suggested that PTX 3 may play a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate plasma PTX 3 levels in patients with psoriasis and their relationship with the disease severity and the effect of narrowband ultraviolet B (nbUVB) therapy on PTX 3 levels.Materials and Methods: The study comprised 40 patients with psoriasis and 88 age-and sex-matched healthy controls. Dermatological examinations and psoriasis area severity index (PASI) were performed. The patients received 20 courses of nbUVB therapy with a mean value of 13 joule/cm2. The efficacy of nbUVB was evaluated using PASI scores. Plasma PTX 3 levels in the patient group were measured before and after therapy by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in patients with the diagnosis of psoriasis and were compared with that in the control group.Results: The mean plasma PTX3 level in the patient group (1.24±0.83) was statistically significantly increased compared to that in the control group (0.55±0.26) (p

Özet

Amaç: Bir akut faz proteini olan pentraxin 3 (PTX 3) enflamatuvar cevabın düzenlenmesi ve doğal immunitenin aktivasyonunda önemli bir rol oynar. PTX 3'ün immun ve enflamatuvar cevaplara bu önemli etkisi nedeniyle psoriasisin patogenezinde rol oynayabileceği düşünülmüştür. Biz de çalışmamızda psoriasisli hastalarda plazma PTX 3 düzeyini, hastalık ile ilişkisini ve darband ultraviyole B (dbUVB) tedavisinin PTX 3 düzeyine etkisinin araştırdık.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 40 psoriasisli hasta ile yaş ve cinsiyet uyumlu 88 sağlıklı kontrol grubu dahil edildi. Hastaların dermatolojik muayeneleri yapıldı, psoriasis alan ve şiddet indeksi (PAŞİ) hesaplandı. Hastalara ortalama 13 joule/cm2, 20 seans dbUVB tedavisi uygulandı. Psoriasis vulgarisli hastaların tedavi öncesi ve tedavi sonrası PAŞİ ve plazma PTX 3 değerleri ile kontrol grubunun plazma PTX 3 düzeyleri ölçüldü. PTX 3 ölçümü için sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay yöntemi kullanıldı ve istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Plazma PTX 3 düzeyleri psoriasisli hastalarda (1,24±0,83) kontrol grubuna (0,55±0,26) göre anlamlı derecede yüksek saptandı (p
