Celiac.com 01/30/2018 - Numerous clinicians have reported higher levels of celiac disease markers in their patients with psoriasis. A number of researchers believe that some psoriasis patients suffer from asymptomatic celiac disease, and a number of patients have reported symptom improvements with gluten-free diets.
A team of researchers recently set out to determine the prevalence of antigliadin IgA antibodies in psoriasis vulgaris, and to assess the response of seropositive patients to a gluten-free diet.
The research team included Nikolai A Kolchak, Maria K Tetarnikova, Maria S Theodoropoulou, Alexandra P Michalopoulou, and Demetrios S Theodoropoulos. They are variously affiliated with the Department of Hematology, Omsk State Medical Academy, Omsk, Russia; Dermatology Private Practice...

Celiac.com 12/16/2019 - Psoriasis is a skin condition associated with several immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, including celiac disease. Currently, however, researchers don't have much solid information regarding the chronology of psoriasis development. 
A team of researchers recently set out to investigate the chronology of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases relative to psoriasis. 
The research team included Yuki M.F. Andersen, MD, PhD, Jashin J. Wu, MD, Jacob P. Thyssen, MD, PhD, DMS, and Alexander Egeberg, MD, PhD. They are variously affiliated with the Department of Dermatology and Allergy, Herlev and Gentofte Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark; the Dermatology Research and Education Foundation, Irvine, California; and the Department of D...

Celiac.com 10/31/2022 - An exciting new study shows that CAR T-cell treatment sends lupus into remission, raising hopes it could be used to treat other autoimmune diseases such as celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis.
In the study, five people suffering from severe lupus became the first patients to receive the new therapy, which uses genetically altered cells to force the illness into remission. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can cause life-threatening damage to the heart, lungs, brain and kidneys. The origins of lupus are poorly understood, but researchers believe it may be triggered by viral infections, certain drugs, and changes in the body during puberty and menopause.
Doctors in Germany treated the four women and one man, ranging from 18 to...

A new study shows that celiac disease patients face a higher risk of psoriasis, but not vice versa. Here's what they found.
Genetic Study
A team of researchers recently set out to explore the causal link between psoriasis and celiac disease with bidirectional 2-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) study. The research team included Lin Li, Lixin Fu, Liwen Zhang & Yanyan Feng. They are affiliated with theDepartment of Dermatology, Chengdu Second People’s Hospital, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
