Abstract in brief

  • Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic autoimmune disease primarily affecting the spine, leading to pain and, in advanced cases, spine fusion.
  • Recent research highlights the vital roles of immune cells, cytokines, particularly the IL-23/17 axis, and genetic factors like the HLA-B27 gene in the disease’s development, though its exact cause remains unclear.
  • Treatment options include medications and surgery, with ongoing research exploring new therapies based on understanding the disease's genetic and cytokine pathways.]
