BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease driven by upregulation of cytokines in the Th17 pathway, including interleukin-36 (IL-36). Previous studies have highlighted the utility of IL-36 immunostaining for psoriasis compared to spongiotic dermatitis and other psoriasiform dermatoses; however, no study has examined the role of IL-36 staining in distinguishing psoriasis from pityriasis rosea (PR) and pityriasis lichenoides (PL), known histologic mimickers of psoriasis.
METHODS: We compared the immunostaining pattern of IL-36 for 21 PR cases, 22 PL cases, and 10 psoriasis cases. We graded the immunostaining as 0, negative; 1, focal weak; 2, diffuse weak; 3, focal, strong; or 4, diffuse strong. We further categorized stains as negative (0-2 score) or positive (3-4 score) and utilized Fisher's exact test to compare the immunostaining pattern of these entities.
RESULTS: All psoriasis specimens were positive for IL-36, whereas all PR specimens were negative (p = 0.00000002). Twenty PL specimens were negative (p = 0.000001). Nine of 10 pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta cases were negative (p = 0.00012), and 11 of 12 cases of pityriasis lichenoides chronica were negative (p = 0.00003).
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight the potential role of IL-36 immunostaining in distinguishing psoriasis from other psoriasiform dermatoses, including PR and PL.
