Abstract

Radioimmunoassay of sex steroid-binding globulin (SSBG) in sera of 37 girls with psoriasis aged 7–15 years and in age-matched controls showed a decrease in its concentration in all patients. Serum concentration of SSBG in patients depended on clinical stage, form, and duration of the disease. SSBG levels negatively, correlated with age and body weight in patients with psoriasis and in healthy girls. The role of endocrine disorders in the pathogenesis of psoriasis is discussed.
