Identification of 15 new psoriasis susceptibility loci highlights the role of innate immunity

Lam C. Tsoi, +215 more

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and independent data sets genotyped on the Immunochip identified 15 new susceptibility loci, increasing to 36 the number associated with psoriasis in European individuals, and identified five independent signals within previously known loci.

Genetic Analysis of PSORS1 Distinguishes Guttate Psoriasis and Palmoplantar Pustulosis

TL;DR: The PSORS1 locus in the major histocompatibility complex region is the major genetic determinant for psoriasis vulgaris as discussed by the authors, and it has been shown that specific allelic variants of the genes HLA-Cw*6, HCR*WWCC, and CDSN*5 are strongly associated with the pathogenesis of the disease.
