BACKGROUND

The co-inhibitory molecule B7-H4 is located in the genomic regions associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) susceptibility. However, the correlation of B7-H4 with glycometabolism and dyslipidemia has never been studied.

OBJECTIVE

To explore the influence of B7-H4 polymorphism on the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and dyslipidemia in psoriasis.

METHODS

In this single-center cross-sectional study, we recruited 265 psoriatic patients receiving methotrexate (MTX) treatment. Thirteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in B7-H4 were genotyped. Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), lipoprotein (a) (LP(a)), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) were measured at baseline and week 12.

RESULTS

The GG genotype carriers of rs12025144 in B7-H4 had a higher prevalence of DM (57.14% vs. 17.71% vs. 18.67%, p = 0.0018), and had a poorer response to MTX in diabetic patients (p < 0.05), compared with AA or AG genotype carriers. The AG genotype of rs2066398 was associated with higher levels of pro-atherogenic lipids. MTX significantly downregulated the level of anti-atherogenic lipid ApoA1 in AA genotype carriers of rs2066398.

CONCLUSIONS

The genotypes rs12025144 and rs2066398 in B7-H4 were correlated with a higher prevalence of DM and dyslipidemia in psoriasis, respectively.
