Zusammenfassung:Sirtuins (SIRT) have been regarded as culprits in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Their exact role has not been explained. This study aimed to assess the expression of SIRT1, SIRT6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and interferon (IFN)-γ in psoriatic patients. Thirty psoriatic patients and 22 controls were enrolled. Clinical examination and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) were obtained. Two skin biopsies (lesional, peri-lesional) and one from controls were obtained. Tissue levels of SIRT1, SIRT6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ were measured using ELISA. SIRT1 was significantly lower in lesional skin with gradual increase in perilesional followed by control skin (P
