Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a heterodimeric transcriptional factor and is composed of HIF-1α and HIF-1β subunits. An increase in the levels of HIF-1α in the psoriatic lesions and the serum of psoriatic patients has been reported. An increase in the HIF-1α in the epithelial keratinocytes
Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease. The etiology of the disease is unknown. It is a polygenic and multifactorial disease, which interacts with genetic and environmental factors. Genetic factors (polymorphism/mutation) can alter the immune system and normal The aim of our study was to investigate the possible role of nitrogen reactive species in pathogenesis of psoriasis. A total of 187 individuals were included in this study, out of these 84 were patients suffering from psoriasis and 103 were healthy subjects, served as a control. Patients with
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1(HIF-1) α in psoriatic lesions,and to explore their relationship with angiogenesis in psoriasis.
METHODS
HIF-1α and iNOS protein were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot in
Psoriasis is characterized by excessive cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and regions of hypoxia. Hypoxia stimulates production of hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) such as HIF1α. The aim of the present study is to investigate the possible role of HIF1α in pathogenesis of psoriasis and to correlate
Psoriasis is a common and chronic autoimmune skin disease which affects 2 to 3% of the world population. Abnormal proliferation of human keratinocytes is an important feature of psoriasis, along with local hypoxia and vascular abnormal growth. To leverage recent molecular findings into the
BACKGROUND
The pustular and erythrodermic types of psoriasis have been associated with a number of systemic complications, including congestive heart failure and pneumonia. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) refers to acute noncardiogenic pulmonary edema with hypoxemia of various causes and
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease where the altered regulation in angiogenesis, inflammation, and proliferation of keratinocytes are the possible causes of the disease, and the transcription factor "hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha" (HIF-1α) is involved in the homeostasis of these
Comprehensive examinations of dermal morphology and function, carried out in 50 patients suffering from psoriasis, have revealed manifest hypoxia, depression of the intramitochondrial energy production, reduction of the cellular synthetic potency, increased protein catabolism, impaired
In response to hypoxia, adaptive hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) signaling events are activated to increase oxygen transport, anaerobic energy production and protective pathways to minimize ischemic tissue damage. Although the activation and subsequent induction of gene transcription by HIF-1 is
BACKGROUND
Expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) alpha can be linked to inflammation through reciprocal interactions with several cytokines. This finding is in accordance with the previously noted HIF-1 alpha overexpression in psoriatic lesional keratinocytes.
METHODS
In this study we
BACKGROUND
Ischaemia-modified albumin (IMA) is increased in diseases associated with oxidative stress, as detected using the albumin cobalt-binding test. Oxidative stress plays an important role in the development of psoriasis.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate circulating IMA levels in patients with
Angiogenesis is a hallmark of chronic inflammation such as psoriasis. Unraveling the pathogenesis of psoriasis shows that several proangiogenic mediators are activated and highly expressed during psoriasis. Vascular endothelial growth factor, hypoxia- inducible factor, tumor necrosis factor,
The expression of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), a cytokine which greatly contributes to the induction of type I allergy, is upregulated in chronic inflammation such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. As hypoxia in the epidermis is important for maintaining skin homeostasis, we examined the
