pubmed:abstractText |
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory joint disease, in which early neovascularization of affected skin and synovial tissue represents an important pathogenetic step in the disease process. Activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) showed anti-inflammatory effects in several in vitro and in vivo models (e.g. collagen-induced arthritis) by inhibition of angiogenesis and suppression of proinflammatory cytokines. Therefore, we studied the use of pioglitazone, a PPARgamma agonist originally developed for the treatment of diabetes, in patients with PsA.
