Abstract:
Abstract Background: Squamous cell carcinoma antigens (SCCA1, SCCA2) are members of the ovalbumin serpin family that have been described as biomarkers of squamous cell carcinomas. Different studies to date have stated the involvement of SCCA in the pathogenesis of certain immunological diseases, such as asthma and atopic dermatitis. Objective: We sought to assess the expression of SCCA2 in the skin of patients with chronic plaque psoriasis and to detect its correlation with the clinical severity of psoriasis and with the density of inflammatory infiltrates in the skin lesions. Methods: Skin biopsies were taken from 24 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 24 healthy controls by 5-mm punches. Tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin to confirm the diagnosis and to assess the grade of inflammation. The expression level of SCCA2 in the skin was assessed by immunohistochemical analysis. Results: The tissue SCCA2 level was significantly higher in psoriatic patients than controls and correlated positively with the severity of psoriasis. In addition, the dermal SCCA2 expression correlated positively with the density of dermal inflammatory infiltrates. Conclusion: SCCA2 could be a useful marker of the clinical severity and the grade of inflammation of psoriasis.
