The immune-pathogenesis of psoriatic arthritis represents a subject of intense research, as a still unknown factor can trigger the chronic inflammation that, upon a defective immune terrain, generates this auto-immune/auto-inflammatory condition. The pathogenesis complexity of psoriatic arthritis resides in the psoriatic synovitis milieu, where intricate immune relations are emerging during disease development. Innate immune response generates inflammatory cytokines driving effectors functions for immune and non-immune cells that sustain the chronical character of the synovitis. Herein, we review the updated information regarding biomarkers/immune markers that sustain the heterogeneity and complexity of psoriatic arthritis pathogenesis, this complexity leading to multifaceted methodological approaches for disease investigation. New immune proteomic or genomic biomarkers can enlarge and identify new therapeutic targets.
