19 Pathogenesis

20 Introduction Spondyloarthritis (SpA) Represents a group of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases that exhibit overlapping clinical features, genetic predisposition and pathogenic mechanisms Accumulating evidence implicates the IL-23/IL-17 axis in the pathogenesis of SpA Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Belongs to SpA and affects primarily the peripheral joints, spine and entheses Associated with psoriasis (PsO) Pathogenesis is not completely understood Considered by some to be an entheseal disease linking mechanical stress on the entheses to immunologically active tissue in the synovium Chimenti MS, et al. Autoimmun Rev. 2013; 12:

22 Overview of the Pathophysiology of Psoriatic Arthritis

23 Important Features Mechanical stress at the enthesis may precipitate PsA Immune response dominated by an autoinflammatory/innate immune response Cytokines generated by the innate immune response promote differentiation of both Th1 and Th17 lymphocytes Highly heritable, polygenic The number of IL-17 producing cells correlates with disease activity Cytokines in the IL-23/Th17 axis drive the multiple clinical features of the disease Barnas JL, et al.

41 PsA Extra-articular Manifestations Acute and chronic inflammation have been reported in the bowel 15% of psoriasis patients 30% of psoriatic arthritis patients Lesions range from asymptomatic focal microscopic inflammation to florid inflammatory bowel disease indistinguishable from Crohn s disease Ritchlin C.

42 PsA Extra-articular Manifestations Uveitis Present in 15-18% of patients with PsA Usually in patients who are HLA B27 positive Differs from uveitis seen in ankylosing spondylitis More often bilateral May involve posterior pole of eye Often requires NSAIDs to control pain Ritchlin C.

47 Recommendation - 3 In patients with peripheral arthritis, particularly in those with many swollen joints, structural damage in the presence of inflammation, high ESR/CRP and/or clinically relevant extraarticular manifestations (1), csdmards should be considered (2) at an early stage (1), with methotrexate preferred in those with relevant skin involvement (2). csdmards= conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, such as methotrexate, sulfasalazine, or leflunomide
