Objective
This study was performed to explore the clinical significance of the expression of human beta-defensin 2 (HBD-2) and chemokine ligand 1/2 (CXCL-1/2) in psoriasis vulgaris.
Methods
This study retrospectively included the study group (n = 160) and control group (n = 100) for analysis. The levels of inflammatory indicators, blood biochemical indicators, and immune indicators using ELISA. The psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) was used to evaluate disease severity. Levels of HBD-2, CXCL-1, CXCL-2 and CCL20 were determined by RT-PCR. The correlations of HBD-2, CXCL-1 and CXCL-2 levels with CCL20 and PASI scores were analyzed. The diagnostic value of HBD-2, CXCL-1 and CXCL-2 in psoriasis vulgaris was analyzed by ROC curve.
