On a different note related to psoriasis, I wonder how many doctors test for gluten sensitivity (antigliadin IgA, IgG) or celiac disease (anti-tTG , Total IgA) in their patients with psoriasis. There are several studies now which have shown patients with psoriasis who are gluten sensitive improve on a gluten free diet. Side effects: none.
Coeliac disease-associated antibodies correlate with psoriasis activity. PMID: 15491433 Oct 2004 High prevalence of celiac disease in psoriasis. PMID: 14638373 Nov 2003 In the entire group of patients, as well as in those on a gluten-free diet as the only treatment, Ki67 + cells in involved dermis were highly significantly decreased after the diet. Gluten-free diet in psoriasis patients with antibodies to gliadin results in decreased expression of tissue transglutaminase and fewer Ki67+ cells in the dermis. PMID: 14690336 2003 The present case supports the association between CD and psoriasis and the concept that psoriasis in CD patients can be improved by GFD Rapid Regression of Psoriasis in a Coeliac Patient after Gluten-Free Diet. A Case Report and Review of the Literature. PMID: 12949434 2003 Patients with PsoA have an increased prevalence of raised serum IgA AGA and of coeliac disease. Patients with raised IgA AGA seem to have more pronounced inflammation than those with a low IgA AGA concentration. Psoriasis patients with antibodies to gliadin can be improved by a gluten-free diet. Full text PMID: 10651693 Jan 2002 Thirty of the 33 patients with AGA completed the GFD period, after which they showed a highly significant decrease in mean PASI. This included a significant decrease in the 16 AGA-positive patients with normal routine histology in duodenal biopsy specimens Psoriasis patients with antibodies to gliadin can be improved by a gluten-free diet. PMID: 10651693 Jan 2000 It was recently observed that in six patients with psoriasis and one with palmoplantar pustulosis, with newly discovered gluten intolerance, a gluten-free diet had a remarkable effect on the skin lesions. Patients with psoriasis often have increased serum levels of IgA antibodies to gliadin. PMID: 8286249 Dec 1993 Hi Cherie! Hope all is well. I don't post here often, but read occasionally and post even more occasionally... but, good to see you here!
