Abstract
Objective: The relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) gene polymorphism and psoriasis remains unclear. This study aims to analyze the association between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and the risk of psoriasis vulgaris in the Chinese Han population and to examine the correlation between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and psoriasis with comorbid hypertension and diabetes.
Methods: A total of 358 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 347 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers from the Chinese Han population were selected. Clinical data, including blood pressure and fasting blood glucose, were collected from the patients. The ACE gene I/D polymorphism was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The association between ACE gene I/D polymorphism and psoriasis vulgaris, as well as comorbid hypertension and diabetes, was analyzed using the Pearson χ²-test.
Results: The frequency of the ACE II genotype (OR = 1.84, 95% CI = 1.30, 2.61; P < 0.01) and the I allele (OR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.22, 1.86; P < 0.01) was significantly higher in psoriasis patients compared to the control group. Conversely, the frequency of the ACE DD genotype (OR = 0.62, 95% CI = 0.44, 0.87; P < 0.01) and the D allele (OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.54, 0.82; P < 0.01) was significantly lower in psoriasis patients compared to the control group. No statistically significant differences were observed when stratified by blood pressure and blood glucose abnormalities (P > 0.05).
Conclusion: The ACE II genotype and I allele are risk factors for psoriasis vulgaris in the Northern Chinese Han population.
期刊介绍:
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the latest clinical and experimental research in all aspects of skin disease and cosmetic interventions. Normal and pathological processes in skin development and aging, their modification and treatment, as well as basic research into histology of dermal and dermal structures that provide clinical insights and potential treatment options are key topics for the journal.
Patient satisfaction, preference, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new management options to optimize outcomes for target conditions constitute major areas of interest.
The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of clinical studies, reviews and original research in skin research and skin care.
All areas of dermatology will be covered; contributions will be welcomed from all clinicians and basic science researchers globally.
