We collected a cohort of 1,019 patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. The patients were typed for HLA-C and HLA-B. A total of 654 (64.2%) were HLA-Cw*0602 positive but 365 (35.8%) carried other HLA-C alleles. We confirmed that HLA-Cw*0602 positive patients have younger age of onset (17.5 vs 24.3 years, P< 10-10), higher incidence of guttate and the eruptive type of psoriasis (P< 0.0001), more frequent exacerbations with throat infections (P=0.01), higher incidence of the Koebner’s phenomenon (P=0.01), and more extensive disease (P=0.03). A striking new finding was a diverging pattern of disease severity in HLACw*0602 positive and negative patients depending on the age of onset of the disease (P=0.0006). HLA-Cw*0602 positive women also had more frequent remissions during pregnancy (P< 0.0001). All types of nail changes were, however, more common in the Cw*0602 negative patients (P=0.003) and they more often had multiple types of nail lesions (P< 0.0001). The three ancestral haplotypes of Cw*0602 all conferred an increase in odds ratio but showed no difference in any of the clinical features studied. Our findings indicate that the genetic factor on chromosome 6 has a strong influence on the phenotype of the disease, and underline that differences in clinical features of psoriasis may be to a large extent genetically determined.展开更多

But, it remains unclear whether HLA-C is the PSORS1 gene (the psoriasis gene in the MHC). Thus, several case-control studies have been performed in order to investigate whether HLA-C itself determines the susceptibility to the disease. We studied 59 Jewish patients with type I psoriasis and 79 matched controls. Polymorphic genes and markers from HLA-B (centromeric to HLA-C) to the corneodesmosin (CDSN) gene (telomeric to HLA-C) were genotyped in order to determine their contribution to the susceptibility to psoriasis. Neither HLA-Cw 0602 nor the allele CDSN TTC were significantly associated with psoriasis with the size of the sample studied. The genes and markers telomeric to HLA-C such as the microsatellite C1-4- 4 (OR = 2.6, 95% CI = 1.4- 4.7, Pc =0.018) the octamer transcription factor (OTF)- 3 gene (OR = 2.6, 95% CI = 1.6- 4.3, Pc = 0.0001) and the α -helix coiled-coil rod homologue (HCR) gene (OR = 2.5, 95% CI = 1.3- 4.5, Pc = 0.004), however, were associated with the disease. These results suggest that a major psoriasis susceptibility gene is likely to be located within a region of 150 kb telomeric to HLA-C and centromeric to the CDSN gene.展开更多
