Brief Summary: The study is to assess frequency of NASH in Psoriatic patient and to measure the level of proinflammatory cytokines including TNFα interleukin IL-6 and IL-17 and anti-inflammatory cytokines including IL10 IL35 by ELISA
Detailed Description: Psoriasis is a chronic proliferative and inflammatory condition of the skin It is characterized by erythematous plaques covered with silvery scales particularly over the extensor surfaces scalp and lumbosacral region

The disorder can also affect the joints and eyes Psoriasis has no cure and the disease waxes and wanes with flareups There are several subtypes of psoriasis but the plaque type is the most common and presents on the trunk extremities and scalp

Psoriasis has a prevalence ranging from 02 to 48

In parallel nonalcoholic fatty liver disease NAFLD is the most frequent liver disease worldwide affecting an estimated 30 of the adult population in developed countries

NAFLD and the metabolic syndrome are mutually and bi-directionally associated as these two pathologic condition share insulin resistance as a common pathophysiological mechanism

NAFLD encompasses a spectrum of pathologic conditions ranging from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitisNASH featuring steatosis associated with inflammatory changes hepatocellular ballooning and pericellular fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis NAFLD is projected to become the most common indication for liver transplantation in the United States by 2030

Over the last few years multiple studies have demonstrated that psoriasis is associated with NAFLD The majority reported a prevalence of around 50 range 144 to 655 for NAFLD in psoriatic patients

The contribution of IL-17 to the pathogenesis of both psoriasis and NAFLD is intriguing Th17 cells can be detected in fat tissue and IL-17 itself regulates glucose metabolism and adipogenesis Likewise IL-17A-secreting Th17 cells may promote the progression from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis 10 Therefore both psoriasis and NAFLD pathogenesis seem to be linked to the joint proinflammatory Th17 axis and other cytokines such as TNFα and IL-6
