Temporal dynamics of skin microbiota and immune correlates in psoriasis patients receiving systemic treatment

ABSTRACT <jats:sec id="s45">Background How skin microbiota in psoriasis patients responded to systematic therapeutics remained unknown.<jats:sec id="s46">Objectives To profile temporal shifts in transcriptionally active skin microbiota in psoriasis patients receiving systemic therapies.<jats:sec id="s47">Methods We prospectively enrolled 61 psoriasis patients and 29 skin-healthy controls in 2015-2019. Using RNA-based 16S rRNA gene sequencing, we analyzed 969 samples from skin lesions and compared microbial abundance and diversity by therapeutic classes and disease severity.<jats:sec id="s48">Results Lesional microbiota in patients on conventional systemics and TNF-αinhibitor was different in relative abundances in Firmicutes (7.83% higher, adjusted P &lt; 0.001) and Proteobacteria (6.98% lower, adjusted P &lt; 0.01) from that in patients on anti-interleukin monoclonal antibodies (anti-ILAb) at baseline. The only difference during treatment was a 1.47% lower abundance in Bacteroides associated with nonbiologics use (adjusted P &lt; 0.01). We identified no indicator taxa by disease severity at baseline yet noticed that a minor relative reduction inCorynebacteriumsp. was associated with clinical responses to treatment.Compared to anti-ILAb, TNF-αinhibitor and nonbiologics were associated with -0.21 lower Shannon Diversity (adjusted P &lt; 0.01) and 0.03 higher Shannon Evenness (adjusted P &lt; 0.01). Results of ordinated principal coordinates analysis revealed that, lesional microbiota from patients of these 3 therapeutic groups was compositionally distinct. Our work also demonstrated concurrent changes in clonal shifts in systemic T cell receptor clonotypes that were associated with systemic use of biologics.<jats:sec id="s49">Conclusions Community abundances and diversities of skin microbiota may be useful in distinguishing skin microbiota from patients receiving different systemic therapeutics. Specifically, use of anti-ILAb and TNF-αinhibitor was associated with sample-wise microbial abundances and diversities, but not richness, over time. These findings highlighted the potential utility of skin microbiota as biomarkers for personalized treatment plans in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis..
