BACKGROUND
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) is a lipid-binding protein that regulates cholesterol homeostasis and secretory pathways. However, the correlation of AnxA6 polymorphism with lipometabolism has never been studied in psoriasis.
OBJECTIVES
To investigate the impact of AnxA6 polymorphism on lipid profiles and the expression of AnxA6 protein in both peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and lipometabolism in psoriasis.
METHODS
A total of 265 psoriatic patients received methotrexate (MTX) treatment for 12 weeks, after which their lipid profiles were determined by measuring total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs), lipoprotein (a) [LP(a)], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein (a)1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB). In addition, AnxA6 (rs11960458) was genotyped in 262 patients and the expression of AnxA6 in PBMCs was measured by Western blotting at baseline and week 8 post-MTX treatment.
RESULTS
The CC genotype carriers of rs11960458 had a lower expression of AnxA6 and lower levels of the pro-atherogenic lipids TC, LDL, and ApoB compared to TC genotype carriers. MTX significantly downregulated the levels of the anti-atherogenic lipids HDL-C and ApoA1 and the level of AnxA6 in TC genotype carriers, as well as the level of TGs in CC genotype carriers.
CONCLUSIONS
The polymorphism of AnxA6, rs11960458, was statistically associated with the levels of pro-atherogenic lipids and with the downregulation of MTX on the levels of anti-atherogenic lipids and TGs in psoriasis.
