ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue 1 (MALT1) modulates T helper cell differentiation, pro-inflammatory cytokine production, and epidermal hyperplasia to participate in the pathology of psoriasis. This study aimed to explore the correlation of blood MALT1 with treatment outcomes in psoriasis patients.METHODS:
MALT1 was detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 210 psoriasis patients before starting or converting to a new therapy, 50 disease controls, and 50 healthy controls. The psoriasis area severity index (PASI) score was evaluated at month (M)1, M3, and M6 in psoriasis patients.RESULTS:
MALT1 was increased in psoriasis patients versus disease controls and healthy controls (both p < .001); and positively related to body mass index (p = .019) and PASI score (p < .001) in psoriasis patients. PASI75 rate at M1, M3, and M6 was 22.9%, 46.2%, and 71.0%, respectively; while PASI90 rate at M1, M3, and M6 was 3.8%, 29.0%, and 50.5%, respectively, in psoriasis patients. PASI75/90 rates at M1, M3, and M6 were increased in psoriasis patients receiving biologics versus those without (all p < .05). Pretreatment MALT1 was higher in psoriasis patients who achieved PASI75 (p = .001) and PASI90 (p < .001) at M6 compared to those who did not achieve that. Subgroup analyses discovered that pretreatment MALT1 had a stronger ability to predict PASI75 and 90 realizations in psoriasis patients receiving biologics (area under the curve [AUC] 0.723 and 0.808) versus those without (AUC 0.594 and 0.675).CONCLUSION:
Blood MALT1 measurement may assist in predicting outcomes in psoriasis patients, especially in those receiving biologics.Palavras-chave
