Özet

Objective The aim of this study is to determine serum levels of soluble forms of CD26/dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and adenosine deaminase (ADA), thought to be markers of T-cell activation, and changes in their levels in response to cyclosporine, etanercept, and psoralen plus ultraviolet A (PUVA) treatments with respect to disease activity.
