Serum Fatty Acid‐Binding Protein 4 is Increased in Patients with Psoriasis

Abstract: Psoriasis is associated with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABP) have been recognized as predictors of these systemic disorders. The aim of this study was to assess correlations between levels of serum heart and adipocyte fatty acid-binding proteins (FABP3, FABP4) and disease severity, indicators of inflammation or metabolic disturbances, and topical treatment in psoriatic patients. Thirty-seven patients with relapse of plaque-type psoriasis and 16 healthy voluntee… Show more

“…However, NB-UVB treatment led to a significant reduction in both FABP3 and FABP4 levels, suggesting an influence of UVB on lipid metabolism through these isoforms. Our results are partially in agreement with a recently published paper by Baran et al [39], reporting no differences in baseline levels of FABP3 between patients and controls. In contrast to our results, they reported increased baseline FABP4 levels in their patients, which were not altered upon topical treatment.…”

“…The authors suggested that A-FABP could be a marker for psoriasis and a prognostic factor for comorbidities. The studies failed to confirm the tentative involvement of H-FABP in the assessment of CVD development in patients with psoriasis, however H-FABP may be linked to chronic inflammatory process and hepatic dysfunction in psoriatic patients [46].…”

“…A-FABP is also a predictor for CVD and MS [45]. The concentrations of other FABPs in the serum of psoriatic patients has so far been assessed in one study [46]. The mean concentration of A-FABP was significantly higher in patients with psoriasis, however there was no difference in H-FABP compared to the control group.…”
