Research Article: Neutrophil exhaustion and impaired functionality in psoriatic arthritis patients

Date Published: 2024-09-06

Abstract:
Background: Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes, PMNs) are the most abundant subtype of white blood cells and are among the main actors in the inflammatory response. Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting both the axial and peripheral joints. Typically associated with psoriasis, PsA can also affect multiple systems and organs, including the nails and entheses. Despite the involvement of PMNs in PsA, their specific role in the disease remains poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the biological functions of PMNs and neutrophil-related mediators in PsA patients.
