Clonal sharing of CD8+ T‐cells links skin and joint inflammation in psoriatic arthritis
Objective Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an HLA class I‐associated inflammatory arthritis that develops in up to 30% of people with psoriasis. We tested the hypothesis that skin and joint inflammation in PsA is linked in terms of CD8+ T‐cell phenotype and clonality.
