    Abstract Psoriasis is a complex genetic skin disorder typically manifested by red, scaly, and itchy plaques most commonly over the scalp, trunk, elbows, and knees. Histopathological features include thickening of the epidermal layer due to hyper-proliferation and abnormal differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes along with infiltration of immune cells in the psoriatic skin. It is a chronic inflammatory relapsing disease, and there is currently no permanent cure for psoriasis. Proper medications can reduce the severity of the disease and improve the quality of life of the patients. While the genetic components of psoriasis pathogenesis are well explored, the full understanding of its epigenetic component remains elusive. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are documented to regulate various epigenetic processes that lead to the pathogenesis of different diseases including psoriasis. In this review, we have discussed the molecular interplay of different ncRNAs in psoriasis pathogenesis. The roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in psoriasis are pretty well studied, whereas the roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging. This review provides ideas covering some of the latest findings of different modes of functions played by those different ncRNAs documented in the literature. As an ever-evolving topic, some works are still ongoing as well as there are several fields that need rigorous scientific ventures. We have proposed the areas which claim more explorations to better understand the roles played by the ncRNAs in psoriasis pathogenesis.

    Abstract Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic, autoimmune skin disease involving a complex interplay of epidermal keratinocytes, dermal fibroblast and infiltrating immune cells. Differential expressions of miRNAs are observed in psoriasis and the deregulated miRNAs are sometimes associated with disease severity. This study aims to identify miRNAs altered in the serum of psoriasis patients that are associated with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI). In order to assess miRNA levels in the serum of psoriasis patients, we selected 24 differentially expressed miRNAs in the psoriatic skin are possibly derived from the skin and immune cells, as well as five miRNAs that are enriched in other tissues. We identified 16 miRNAs that exhibited significantly (p < 0.05) altered levels in the serum of psoriasis patients compared to healthy individuals. Among these, 13 miRNAs showed similar expression pattern in the serum of psoriasis patients as also observed in the psoriatic skin tissues. Ten miRNAs showed an accuracy of greater than 75% in classifying the psoriasis patients from healthy individuals. Further analysis of differential miRNA levels between the low PASI group and the high PASI group identified three miRNAs (miR-147b, miR-3614-5p, and miR-125a-5p) with significantly altered levels between the low severity and the high severity psoriasis patients. Our systematic investigation of skin and immune cell-derived miRNAs in the serum of psoriasis patients revealed alteration in miRNA levels to be associated with disease severity, which may help in monitoring the disease progression and therapeutic response.
