Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Genetic associations imply a role for CD8+ T cells and the interleukin-23 (IL-23)/IL-17 axis in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and other spondyloarthritides (SpA). IL-17A+CD8+ (Tc17) T cells are enriched in the synovial fluid (SF) of patients with PsA, and IL-17A blockade is clinically efficacious in PsA/SpA. This study was undertaken to determine the immunophenotype, molecular profile, and function of...
