We analyzed monocytes from healthy controls (n = 42), psoriatic arthritis (n = 25), rheumatoid arthritis (n = 16), and AS patients (n = 15) for SPPL2a enzyme activity and complemented the experiments using SPPL2a‐sufficient and ‐deficient THP‐1 cells. This evidence concerns the gene SPPL2A and psoriatic arthritis.
