Platelet Activity and Vascular Health in System Lupus Erythematosus
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a remarkably complex disease that poses several challenges to the clinician, including heterogeneity of presentation, undulating course, and elevated risk for premature cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study will bridge the relationship between platelets and vascular function, and shed light on the role of platelets as disease mediators.200 patients with SLE (18 years and older) will be recruited. Many participants will be identified by those participating in the SAMPLE (Specimen and Matched Phenotype Linked Evaluation) database (S14-00487) who agreed to be contacted to be part of another study.
Platelet and Endothelial Dysfunction in Psoriasis
Background: Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with an ~50% increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to matched controls. The influence of psoriasis-related systemic inflammation on vascular health and subsequent CV risk is not fully known. Vascular endothelial dysfunction, activated platelets, and the interaction between the two are instrumental to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. As a way to understand mechanisms of increased CV risk in psoriasis, this study will test the overarching hypothesis that the vascular endothelium in psoriasis is inflamed, dysfunctional, and contributes to CV risk as assessed by endovascular and platelet phenotyping.Methods: We will recruit 100 psoriasis and 75 healthy age-, sex-, race/ethnicity matched controls across the spectrum of psoriatic disease and various treatment modalities to explore: (1) Vascular health in vivo by flow-mediated brachial artery reactivity testing and pulse wave velocity studies and directly ex vivo via analysis of endothelial cells obtained from brachial veins; (2) Platelet biology through investigations into platelet reactivity and platelet aggregation. These investigations will be performed cross-sectionally and explored over time in psoriasis patients.
