Description
Summary:All cases and control participants with obesity, smoking, diabetes, acute and chronic infections, malignancy, autoimmune disorders, cardiac, hepatic and renal diseases, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and dermatological disease other than psoriasis were excluded from this study. [7],[8] Patients with psoriasis display impaired endothelial-dependent relaxation which may correlate with the future development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events [9] with increased rate of myocardial infarction and stroke. [13] The primary effect of TNF-α in pathogenesis of psoriasis is the regulation of interaction between dendritic cells and antigen specific-T-cells that drives the stimulation of T-cell responses.
