The pathogenesis of PRP is poorly understood, although overexpression of Th17 cytokines have been reported suggesting an inflammatory pathogenesis that may share features with psoriasis. In this study, we used OLINK proximity extension assay technology to quantitate 92 plasma inflammatory proteins of 11 PRP patients treated with ixekizumab (NCT03485976). To our knowledge, this is the first quantitative protein analysis of PRP. These findings support prior studies implicating dysregulation of the Th17 axis in PRP and may help elucidate relevant pathways to target and better treat PRP. Further research is warranted to compare samples to a control population, and to compare these systemic biomarkers to local changes in skin samples. 000008282 540__ $$fCC BY 000008282 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000008282 650__ $$aPityriasis Rubra Pilaris$$024206 000008282 650__ $$aCytokines$$028964 000008282 650__ $$aDermatology$$017631 000008282 650__ $$aSkin Diseases$$026047 000008282 6531_ $$aixekizumab 000008282 6531_ $$aplasma proteins 000008282 6531_ $$aprotein analysis 000008282 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000008282 692__ $$aDepartment of Dermatology$$041406 000008282 7001_ $$aStrunck, Jennifer$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008282 7001_ $$aHaynes, Dylan$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008282 7001_ $$aTopham, Christina$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008282 7001_ $$aOrtega, Alex$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008282 7001_ $$aGreiling, Teri$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008282 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2020 000008282 8564_ $$9b0b457fc-03da-4883-a97d-52b0258064e6$$s48701$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8282/files/Jennifer-Strunck.pdf 000008282 905__ $$a/rest/prod/3j/33/32/84/3j333284w 000008282 980__ $$aResearch Week
