Histocompatibility studies in psoriasis vulgaris: family studies. 1980

L B Espinoza, and C Bombardier, and S W Gaylord, and S Lauter, and F B Vasey, and C K Osterland

A significant correlation between certain histocompatibility antigens, psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis is well established. Familial studies of psoriatic patients have shown a familial aggregation of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. In the present investigation, we studied 2 families in which psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis were seen in several members of different generations. HLA typing and mixed lymphocyte culture studies were performed. The results provide further documentation of the complexity of the genetic influences in psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007959 Lymphocyte Culture Test, Mixed Measure of histocompatibility at the HL-A locus. Peripheral blood lymphocytes from two individuals are mixed together in tissue culture for several days. Lymphocytes from incompatible individuals will stimulate each other to proliferate significantly (measured by tritiated thymidine uptake) whereas those from compatible individuals will not. In the one-way MLC test, the lymphocytes from one of the individuals are inactivated (usually by treatment with MITOMYCIN or radiation) thereby allowing only the untreated remaining population of cells to proliferate in response to foreign histocompatibility antigens.

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011565 Psoriasis A common genetically determined, chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by rounded erythematous, dry, scaling patches. The lesions have a predilection for nails, scalp, genitalia, extensor surfaces, and the lumbosacral region. Accelerated epidermopoiesis is considered to be the fundamental pathologic feature in psoriasis.

D006680 HLA Antigens Antigens determined by leukocyte loci found on chromosome 6, the major histocompatibility loci in humans. They are polypeptides or glycoproteins found on most nucleated cells and platelets, determine tissue types for transplantation, and are associated with certain diseases.
