Serum concentration of dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK1) in psoriatic arthritis in the context of bone remodelling.
Rheumatology International 2023 September 27
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease, characterised by the pathological occurrence of two opposite phenomena-osteoresorption and osteogenesis. Dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK1) which inhibits the Wingless protein (Wnt) signalling pathway has been shown to be a master regulator of bone remodeling in inflammatory rheumatic diseases. However, the exact relationship between DKK1 serum level and bone remodelling is not clear. The goal of this study is to review state-of-the-art knowledge on the association of serum DKK1 with a bone remodelling in PsA. The MEDLINE-PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science and DOAJ databases were searched for appropriate papers. The English terms: 'DKK1', 'Dickkopf-1' 'Dickkopf related protein 1', 'psoriatic arthritis' and 'PsA' were used for search purposes. Eight original articles and two reviews were identified up to August 2023. In four out of 8 discussed studies DKK1 serum level was higher in PsA patients than in healthy controls [Dalbeth, p < 0.01; Diani, p < 0.001; Chung, p < 0.01; Abd el Hamid, p < 0.001)], it was comparable in another (Daousiss, p = 0.430) and was lower in two (Fassio2017, p < 0.05; Fassio2019, p < 0.05). In one study, the comparative groups included patients with axial spondyloarthritis, where DKK1 serum levels were lower in PsA groups [Jadon, peripheral PsA, p = 0.01]. The true relative serum concentration of DKK1 in PsA, as well as its influence on osteogenesis and osteoresorption, is still equivocal. Further studies on this matter with consistent and stringent methodology are warranted.
