Popis: | Background Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory and debilitating disease of the skin. No biomarkers for this disease exist. Objectives We set out to test whether angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), lysozyme, soluble interleukin 2 receptor (sIL-2R) and S100A8 ⁄A9 (calprotectin) are elevated in patients with HS. Methods Serum was collected from 29 patients with HS at different stages of the disease, and from 51 controls. ACE, lysozyme, sIL-2R and S100A8 ⁄A9 levels were measured. Clinical observation of disease activity was scored according to the Hurley grading system and by a physician global score (PGS) of disease severity. Results Serum levels of lysozyme and ACE were not increased above the normal reference values in controls or patients with HS. Levels of sIL-2R and S100A8 ⁄A9 were significantly higher in patients with HS than in controls (P |
