Besides skin inflammation, patients with severe psoriasis suffer from an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. IL-17A plays a central role in the development of psoriasis and might connect skin and vascular disease. The aim of this study was to clarify whether anti-IL-17A therapy could also ameliorate the vascular dysfunction associated with severe psoriasis. We analyzed three murine models with varying severities of psoriasis-like skin disease concerning their vascular function and inflammation: (i)K14-IL-17Aind/+mice with keratinocyte-specific IL-17A overexpression and an early-onset severe psoriasis-like phenotype; (ii) homozygousCD11c-IL-17Aind/indand heterozygousCD11c-IL-17Aind/+mice overexpressing IL-17A in CD11c+cells, leading to a delayed onset of moderate psoriasis-like skin disease; and (iii) the acute model of imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation. Similar to the severity of skin disease, vascular dysfunction correlated with peripheral IL-17A levels and neutrophil infiltration into the aortic vessel wall. Successful anti-IL-17A treatment of psoriatic skin lesions diminished peripheral oxidative stress levels, proinflammatory cytokines, and vascular inflammation. These data highlight the pivotal role of IL-17A linking the development of skin lesions and vascular disease in psoriasis. Anti-IL-17A therapy might thus represent a useful approach to attenuate and prevent vascular disease in psoriasis patients.
