Copy Number Variation Analysis of IL22 and LCE3C in Different Subtypes of Psoriasis in a Chinese Han Population.
Title: Copy Number Variation Analysis of IL22 and LCE3C in Different Subtypes of Psoriasis in a Chinese Han Population.
Investigation of the clinical characteristics and copy number variations (CNVs) of DEFB4, IL22, and LCE3C in the three subclassifications revealed no significant differences in gender ratio and in Ps area and severity index (PASI) score. The CNVs of DEFB4 and LCE3C showed no significant differences but the CNV of IL22 significantly differed among the three subclassifications.

Our data suggest that The LCE deletion, previously identified in patients with psoriasis, is not of a major importance in the development of PsA in Tunisian patients
Title: Deletion of late cornified envelope genes, LCE3C_LCE3B-del, is not associated with psoriatic arthritis in Tunisian patients.
No evidence of association was seen between the LCE3C_LCE3B-del and psoriasis in 34 patients from 7 multiplex Tunisian families. No epistasic effect was found between the deletion and PSORS1 locus.
Title: Failure to find evidence for deletion of LCE3C and LCE3B genes at PSORS4 contributing to psoriasis susceptibility in Tunisian families.
Our meta-analysis demonstrates a significant association between psoriasis and the LCE3C_LCE3B-del polymorphism in Europeans and Asians, but no association with psoriatic arthritis.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
