Angiotensin‐converting enzyme insertion/deletion (rs106180) and angiotensin type 1 receptor A1166C (rs106165) genotypes and psoriasis: Correlation with cellular immunity, lipid profile, and oxidative stress markers

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition and angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) is a key circulating enzyme converting angiotensin (Ang) I to the vasoactive peptide Ang II. The exact role of ACE insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism (rs106180) in psoriasis is not clear. We aimed to exam...

Description
Summary:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition and angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) is a key circulating enzyme converting angiotensin (Ang) I to the vasoactive peptide Ang II. The exact role of ACE insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism (rs106180) in psoriasis is not clear. We aimed to examine whether the ACE I/D and Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R) A1166C‐polymorphisms (rs106165), lipid profile, and stress oxidative are associated with susceptibility to psoriasis. One hundred patients with psoriasis and 100 sex‐ and age‐matched unrelated healthy controls were recruited for this case‐control study. ACE I/D and AT1R A1166C polymorphisms were identified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR‐restriction fragment length polymorphism, respectively, malondialdehyde (MDA) was detected by the high‐performance liquid chromatography, serum arylesterase (ARE) activity of paraoxonase and catalase activities were detected by the spectrophotometry, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and vascular adhesion protein (VAP)‐1 were measured by ELISA. The presence of C allele of AT1R A1166C and I allele of ACE considerably increased the risk of psoriasis by 6.42‐fold (P
