Abstract

Purpose Psoriasis is a common skin disease affecting about 1-3% of the world population. Many types of cells, including lymphocytes, dendritics APCs (antigen presenting cells), NKT (natural killer T) cells, neutrophils, keratinocytes and fibroblasts are involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.The aim of our study was to assess in psoriatic patients the production of IL-8, IL-10 and IL-12 cytokines by neutrophils, fibroblasts and fibroblasts - neutrophils interaction.Material/methods The production of IL-8, IL-10 and IL-12 cytokines was evaluated in supernatants after cells incubation for 21 h in culture medium alone and in medium in the presence of IL-8 or TNF-α. Concentrations of IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method using commercially available kits.Results Our results demonstrate that fibroblasts are not able to produce IL-10 and IL-12 but they generate IL-8. The amount of IL-8 depends on the site of derivation of fibroblasts and on the stimuli. Neutrophils released IL-8, IL-12 (at a lower level in psoriatic patients) and IL-10 but only in the case of healthy donors and at a very low concentration. Moreover, we observed higher concentrations of IL-12 and IL-8 in supernatants as a result of fibroblasts-neutrophils interaction in psoriatic patients.Conclusions Our results suggest that fibroblasts take part in the inflammatory reaction in psoriasis via cytokines or direct interaction with neutrophils. Fibroblasts probably do not exert any anti-inflammatory effect.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
