Abstract

IntroductionJAK-inhibitors (JAK-i) represent an effective treatment in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). Oral glucocorticoids (OGC) are commonly used in combination with JAK-i to reach therapeutic target. We aimed to assess, in a real-life setting, the reduction of OGC dose during JAK-i treatment in active RA and PsA patients. MethodsWe prospectively enrolled 103 patients (88 RA, 15 PsA) treated with JAK-i: 24% bio-naïve (b-naïve), 76% bDMARD-insufficient responders (bDMARD-IR) and 40% difficult to treat (D2T), defined as failure of ≥2 bDMARDs with different mechanism of action. Disease activity (DAS28 and DAPSA, VAS-pain, GH) and OGC dose was collected at baseline and after 3, 6 and 12 months (T3, T6, T12) of treatment.ResultsIn all the cohort and in b-naïve patients we reported a reduction of OGC dose at all time-points; bDMARD-IR patients were able to reduce OGC dose at T3 and T12; D2T ones only at T3. We reported an improvement of disease activity and withdrawal of OGC as early as three months of therapy, at all time-points, regardless of line of bDMARD treatment. ConclusionChronic OGC may cause detrimental bone, metabolic, cardiovascular side effects and infections; therefore JAK-i steroid-sparing effect may be beneficial for patients in long-term treatment.

Abstract

SAPHO syndrome is a complex disease that encompasses both inflammatory arthritis and/or osteitis and dermatologic manifestations. It is considered a rare disease, in fact, no clinical trials have been conducted on its therapy and management. Therefore, therapeutic approach is based on small case studies. Here, we described the case of a 63-year-old woman affected by SAPHO syndrome, treated with the selective IL-23p19 antagonist, Risankizumab, after unsuccessful therapies with Methotrexate, Infliximab, Adalimumab, and an allergic reaction to Secukinumab. At the beginning of therapy, in November 2022, the patient presented with arthritis in both knees associated with palmar pustulosis and guttate psoriasis on the trunk. DAPSA score was 24, PtGA 80 mm, PASI score 11.1, and BSA 40%. Thereafter, Risankizumab was started at the standard dosage of 150 mg. At week 24 patient achieved clinical remission, DAPSA score was 8, PtGA was 30 mm, PASI was 1, and BSA 2.5. Patient maintained clinical remission state at the subsequent week 52 evaluation. At the same time, the patient did not report any adverse effects. Health-related quality of life was also assessed at the same time points aforementioned, showing significant improvement. In conclusion, this case report wants to point out the efficacy and safety of Risankizumab in SAPHO syndrome, reporting a sustained disease remission through a 12 months long follow-up period. We can consider IL-23p19 targeted therapy as a novel treatment option for SAPHO—with a high efficacy potential—especially on patients that have already been treated with other biologics.

Abstract

Non-infectious uveitis (NIU) can be an early or even the first extra-articular manifestation of systemic rheumatic diseases, or the first one; thus, rheumatologists are often involved in the diagnostic and therapeutic assessment of NIU. We evaluated 130 patients with a diagnosis of NIU who were admitted to two Italian rheumatologic clinics (Tor Vergata University Hospital in Rome, and Federico II University in Naples) from January 2018 to December 2021. Anterior uveitis (AU) occurred in 75.4% of patients, followed by posterior uveitis (PU, 21.5%); acute (54.6%) and recurrent (35.4%) NIU were more documented than chronic NIU (10%), and a bilateral involvement was observed in 38.7% of cases. Half of NIU cases were associated with spondyloarthritis (SpA); the remaining were affected by Behçet disease (BD)-related uveitis (13.9%) and idiopathic NIU (9.2%). HLA-B27+ patients (34.8%) had a higher prevalence of anterior and unilateral NIU (p = 0.005) with acute course (p = 0.04) than HLA-B27– patients. On the contrary, HLA-B51+ patients (19.6%) had mostly PU and bilateral NIU (p < 0.0001) and recurrent course (p = 0.04) than HLA-B51– patients. At the first rheumatologic referral, 117 patients (90%) received systemic treatments. Findings from this study demonstrate that rheumatologic referral has a pivotal role in the diagnostic work-up of NIU and may dramatically influence NIU-treatment strategies.

Abstract

Background. The interplay between female fertility and autoimmune diseases (AIDs) can involve HLA haplotypes and micronutrients. We analyzed the distribution of HLA-DQ2/-DQ8 in women with infertility or recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) and possible associations with AIDs and micronutrient status. Methods. Consecutive women (n = 187) with infertility and RSA, and controls (n = 350) were included. All women were genotyped for HLA-DQ2 (DQA1*0201, A1*05, and B1*02) and -DQ8 (DQA1*03 and DQB1*0302) alleles. Serum 25(OH)D, VB12, folate, and ferritin were evaluated. Results. DQA1*05/B1*02 and the occurrence of at least one DQ2 allele were more prevalent among RSA and infertile women than controls. Infertile women showed lower 25(OH)D and higher prevalence of AIDs than RSA women. In the multivariate analysis, DQA1*05/B1*02 was associated with a significantly higher risk of AIDs in infertile women, and DQA1*05 was independently associated with both 25(OH)D deficiency and AIDs. In RSA women, the presence of AIDs was associated with a significantly higher risk of 25(OH)D deficiency. Conclusion. Our findings showed, for the first time, a higher proportion of DQ2 alleles in infertile and RSA women as compared to controls. Predisposing DQ2 alleles are independent risk factors for AIDs and 25(OH)D deficiency in infertile women and could represent biomarkers for performing early detection of women requiring individually tailored management.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Thrombopoietin (TPO), a growth factor primarily involved in thrombopoiesis may also have a role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. In patients with sepsis, indeed, TPO levels are markedly increased, with disease severity being the major independent determinant of TPO concentrations. Moreover, TPO increases and correlates with ex vivo indices of platelet activation in patients with burn injury upon sepsis development, and may contribute to depress cardiac contractility in septic shock. Still, the role of TPO in sepsis pathophysiology remains controversial, given the protective role of TPO in other experimental disease models, for instance in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. The aim of our study was to define the contribution of TPO in the development of organ damage induced by endotoxemia or sepsis, and to investigate the effects of inhibiting TPO in these conditions. METHODS:We synthesized a chimeric protein able to inhibit TPO, mTPOR-MBP, and studied its effect in two murine experimental models, acute endotoxemia and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model. RESULTS:In both models, TPO levels markedly increased, from 289.80±27.87 pg/mL to 465.60±45.92 pg/mL at 3 hours in the LPS model (P

Abstract

Platelets have received increasing attention for their role in the pathophysiology of infectious disease, inflammation, and immunity. In sepsis, a low platelet count is a well-known biomarker for disease severity and more recently authors have focused their attention on the active role of platelets in the pathogenesis of multi-organ failure. Septic shock is characterised by a dysregulated inflammatory response, which can impair the microcirculation and lead to organ injury. Being at the crossroads between the immune system, clotting cascade, and endothelial cells, platelets seem to be an appealing central mediator and possible therapeutic target in sepsis. This review focuses on the pathogenic role of platelets in septic organ dysfunction in humans and animal models.

Abstract

Background Usefulness of iron chelation therapy in myelodysplastic patients is still under debate but many authors suggest its possible role in improving survival of low-risk myelodysplastic patients. Several reports have described an unexpected effect of iron chelators, such as an improvement in hemoglobin levels, in patients affected by myelodysplastic syndromes. Furthermore, the novel chelator deferasirox induces a similar improvement more rapidly. Nuclear factor-κB is a key regulator of many cellular processes and its impaired activity has been described in different myeloid malignancies including myelodysplastic syndromes.Design and Methods We evaluated deferasirox activity on nuclear factor-κB in myelodysplastic syndromes as a possible mechanism involved in hemoglobin improvement during in vivo treatment. Forty peripheral blood samples collected from myelodysplastic syndrome patients were incubated with 50 μM deferasirox for 18h.Results Nuclear factor-κB activity dramatically decreased in samples showing high basal activity as well as in cell lines, whereas no similar behavior was observed with other iron chelators despite a similar reduction in reactive oxygen species levels. Additionally, ferric hydroxyquinoline incubation did not decrease deferasirox activity in K562 cells suggesting the mechanism of action of the drug is independent from cell iron deprivation by chelation. Finally, incubation with both etoposide and deferasirox induced an increase in K562 apoptotic rate.Conclusions Nuclear factor-κB inhibition by deferasirox is not seen from other chelators and is iron and reactive oxygen species scavenging independent. This could explain the hemoglobin improvement after in vivo treatment, such that our hypothesis needs to be validated in further prospective studies.

Abstract

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic arthritis typically associated with cutaneous psoriasis (PsO). Its pathogenesis is connected to an innate and acquired immune response, as well as genetic risk alleles. The extent of immunopathogenic mechanisms and the heterogenicity of clinical manifestation make the identification of patient-targeted therapies a critical issue, and the treatment decision challenging in patients' management.This review includes a brief overview of biological and small-molecule therapies, focusing on evidence from clinical trials and real-world data that support their use in PsA. We summarize novel and future possible therapeutic strategies, the importance that comorbidities have on selection of therapy and discuss the adverse event of each drug. Relevant papers for up to 1 August 2022 (trials, real-life studies, and reviews) regarding biologics and/or small molecules were summarized.In recent years, the treatment of PsA has been revolutionized by new targeted therapies, which offer the opportunity to perform a tailored-tail management, considering risk factors, comorbidities, and the different PsA phenotypes. Growing experience with these new agents allows novel treatment approaches that may improve clinical outcomes for PsA patients, in terms of remission/low disease activity and quality of life.

Abstract

Purpose This review aims at investigating pathophysiological mechanisms in spondyloarthritis (SpA). Analysis of genetic factors, immunological pathways, and abnormalities of bone metabolism lay the foundations for a better understanding of development of the axial clinical manifestations in patients, allowing physician to choose the most appropriate therapeutic strategy in a more targeted manner. Recent Findings In addition to the contribution of MHC system, findings emerged about the role of non-HLA genes (as ERAP1 and 2, whose inhibition could represent a new therapeutic approach) and of epigenetic mechanisms that regulate the expression of genes involved in SpA pathogenesis. Increasing evidence of bone metabolism abnormalities secondary to the activation of immunological pathways suggests the development of various bone anomalies that are present in axSpA patients. Summary SpA are a group of inflammatory diseases with a multifactorial origin, whose pathogenesis is linked to the genetic predisposition, the action of environmental risk factors, and the activation of immune response. It is now well known how bone metabolism leads to long-term structural damage via increased bone turnover, bone loss and osteoporosis, osteitis, erosions, osteosclerosis, and osteoproliferation. These effects can exist in the same patient over time or even simultaneously. Evidence suggests a cross relationship among innate immunity, autoimmunity, and bone remodeling in SpA, making treatment approach a challenge for rheumatologists. Specifically, treatment targets are consistently increasing as new drugs are upcoming. Both biological and targeted synthetic drugs are promising in terms of their efficacy and safety profile in patients affected by SpA.

Abstract

To explain the paradigm of significant renal functional impairment despite preserved hemodynamics and histology in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury.Prospective observational animal study.University research laboratory.Male Wistar rats.Using a fluid-resuscitated sublethal rat model of fecal peritonitis, changes in renal function were characterized in relation to global and renal hemodynamics, and histology at 6 and 24 hours (n = 6-10). Sham-operated animals were used as comparison (n = 8). Tubular cell mitochondrial function was assessed using multiphoton confocal imaging of live kidney slices incubated in septic serum.By 24 hours, serum creatinine was significantly elevated with a concurrent decrease in renal lactate clearance in septic animals compared with sham-operated and 6-hour septic animals. Renal uncoupling protein-2 was elevated in septic animals at 24 hours although tubular cell injury was minimal and mitochondrial ultrastructure in renal proximal tubular cells preserved. There was no significant change in global or renal hemodynamics and oxygen delivery/consumption between sham-operated and septic animals at both 6- and 24-hour timepoints. In the live kidney slice model, mitochondrial dysfunction was seen in proximal tubular epithelial cells incubated with septic serum with increased production of reactive oxygen species, and decreases in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and mitochondrial membrane potential. These effects were prevented by coincubation with the reactive oxygen species scavenger, 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidin-1-oxyl.Renal dysfunction in sepsis occurs independently of hemodynamic instability or structural damage. Mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by circulating mediators that induce local oxidative stress may represent an important pathophysiologic mechanism.

Abstract

Background Frailty is a state of increased vulnerability to stressors, associated to poor health outcomes. The aim of this study was to design and introduce a Frailty Index (FI; according to the age-related accumulation of deficit model) in a large cohort of hospitalized older persons, in order to benefit from its capacity to comprehensively weight the risk profile of the individual. Methods Patients aged 65 and older enrolled in the REPOSI register from 2010 to 2016 were considered in the present analyses. Variables recorded at the hospital admission (including socio-demographic, physical, cognitive, functional and clinical factors) were used to compute the FI. The prognostic impact of the FI on in-hospital and 12-month mortality was assessed. Results Among the 4488 patients of the REPOSI register, 3847 were considered eligible for a 34-item FI computation. The median FI in the sample was 0.27 (interquartile range 0.21–0.37). The FI was significantly predictive of both in-hospital (OR 1.61, 95%CI 1.38–1.87) and overall (HR 1.46, 95%CI 1.32–1.62) mortality, also after adjustment for age and sex. Conclusions The FI confirms its strong predictive value for negative outcomes. Its implementation in cohort studies (including those conducted in the hospital setting) may provide useful information for better weighting the complexity of the older person and accordingly design personalized interventions.

Abstract

Background Short-term prognosis, e.g. mortality at three months, has many important implications in planning the overall management of patients, particularly non-oncologic patients in order to avoid futile practices. The aims of this study were: i) to investigate the risk of three-month mortality after discharge from internal medicine and geriatric wards of non-oncologic patients with at least one of the following conditions: permanent bedridden status during the hospital stay; severely reduced kidney function; hypoalbuminemia; hospital admissions in the previous six months; severe dementia; ii) to establish the absolute risk difference of three-month mortality of bedridden compared to non-bedridden patients. Methods This prospective cohort study was run in 102 Italian internal medicine and geriatric hospital wards. The sample included all patients with three-months follow-up data. Bedridden condition was defined as the inability to walk or stand upright during the whole hospital stay. The following parameters were also recorded: estimated GFR ≤ 29 mL/min/1.73 m2; severe dementia; albuminemia ≪2.5 g/dL; hospital admissions in the six months before the index admission. Results Of 3915 patients eligible for the analysis, three-month follow-up were available for 2058, who were included in the study. Bedridden patients were 112 and the absolute risk difference of mortality at three months was 0.13 (CI 95% 0.08–0.19, p ≪ 0.0001). Logistic regression analysis also adjusted for age, sex, number of drugs and comorbidity index found that bedridden condition (OR 2.10, CI 95% 1.12–3.94), severely reduced kidney function (OR 2.27, CI 95% 1.22–4.21), hospital admission in the previous six months (OR 1.96, CI 95% 1.22–3.14), severe dementia (with total or severe physical dependence) (OR 4.16, CI 95% 2.39–7.25) and hypoalbuminemia (OR 2.47, CI 95% 1.12–5.44) were significantly associated with higher risk of three-month mortality. Conclusions Bedridden status, severely reduced kidney function, recent hospital admissions, severe dementia and hypoalbuminemia were associated with higher risk of three-month mortality in non-oncologic patients after discharge from internal medicine and geriatric hospital wards.

Abstract

Platelets have received increasing attention for their role in the pathophysiology of infectious disease, inflammation, and immunity. In sepsis, a low platelet count is a well-known biomarker for disease severity and more recently authors have focused their attention on the active role of platelets in the pathogenesis of multi-organ failure. Septic shock is characterised by a dysregulated inflammatory response, which can impair the microcirculation and lead to organ injury. Being at the crossroads between the immune system, clotting cascade, and endothelial cells, platelets seem to be an appealing central mediator and possible therapeutic target in sepsis. This review focuses on the pathogenic role of platelets in septic organ dysfunction in humans and animal models.

Background: Because frailty is a complex phenomenon associated with poor outcomes, the identification of patient profiles with different care needs might be of greater practical help than to look for a unifying definition. This study aimed at identifying aging phenotypes and their related outcomes in order to recognize frailty in hospitalized older patients. Methods: Patients aged 65 or older enrolled in internal medicine and geriatric wards participating in the REPOSI registry. Relationships among variables associated to sociodemographic, physical, cognitive, functional, and medical status were explored using a multiple correspondence analysis. The hierarchical cluster analysis was then performed to identify possible patient profiles. Multivariable logistic regression was used to verify the association between clusters and outcomes (in-hospital mortality and 3-month postdischarge mortality and rehospitalization). Results: 2,841 patients were included in the statistical analyses. Four clusters were identified: the healthiest (I), those with multimorbidity (II), the functionally independent women with osteoporosis and arthritis (III), and the functionally dependent oldest old patients with cognitive impairment (IV). There was a significantly higher in-hospital mortality in Cluster II (odds ratio [OR] = 2.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.15-4.46) and Cluster IV (OR = 5.15, 95% CI = 2.58-10.26) and a higher 3-month mortality in Cluster II (OR = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.13-2.44) and Cluster IV (OR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.15-3.00) than in Cluster I.

Abstract

Background Because frailty is a complex phenomenon associated with poor outcomes, the identification of patient profiles with different care needs might be of greater practical help than to look for a unifying definition. This study aimed at identifying aging phenotypes and their related outcomes in order to recognize frailty in hospitalized older patients. Methods Patients aged 65 or older enrolled in internal medicine and geriatric wards participating in the REPOSI registry. Relationships among variables associated to sociodemographic, physical, cognitive, functional, and medical status were explored using a multiple correspondence analysis. The hierarchical cluster analysis was then performed to identify possible patient profiles. Multivariable logistic regression was used to verify the association between clusters and outcomes (in-hospital mortality and 3-month postdischarge mortality and rehospitalization). Results 2,841 patients were included in the statistical analyses. Four clusters were identified: the healthiest (I); those with multimorbidity (II); the functionally independent women with osteoporosis and arthritis (III); and the functionally dependent oldest old patients with cognitive impairment (IV). There was a significantly higher in-hospital mortality in Cluster II (odds ratio [OR] = 2.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.15-4.46) and Cluster IV (OR = 5.15, 95% CI = 2.58-10.26) and a higher 3-month mortality in Cluster II (OR = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.13-2.44) and Cluster IV (OR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.15-3.00) than in Cluster I. Conclusions Using alternative analytical techniques among hospitalized older patients, we could distinguish different frailty phenotypes, differently associated with adverse events. The identification of different patient profiles can help defining the best care strategy according to specific patient needs.

Abstract

Purpose: To assess the pattern of in-hospital changes in drug use in older patients from 2010 to 2016. Methods: People aged 65years or more acutely hospitalized in those internal medicine and geriatric wards that did continuously participate to the REgistro POliterapie Società Italiana di Medicina Interna register from 2010 to 2016 were selected. Drugs use were categorized as 0 to 1 drug (very low drug use), 2 to 4 drugs (low drug use), 5 to 9 drugs (polypharmacy), and 10 or more drugs (excessive polypharmacy). To assess whether or not prevalence of patients in relation to drug use distribution changed overtime, adjusted prevalence ratios (PRs) was estimated with log-binomial regression models. Results: Among 2120 patients recruited in 27 wards continuously participating to data collection, 1882 were discharged alive and included in this analysis. The proportion of patients with very low drug use (0-1 drug) at hospital discharge increased overtime, from 2.7% in 2010 to 9.2% in 2016. Results from a log-logistic adjusted model confirmed the increasing PR of these very low drug users overtime (particularly in 2014 vs 2012, PR 1.83 95% CI 1.14-2.95). Moreover, from 2010 to 2016, there was an increasing number of patients who, on polypharmacy at hospital admission, abandoned it at hospital discharge, switching to the very low drug use group. Conclusion: This study shows that in internal medicine and geriatric wards continuously participating to the REgistro POliterapie Società Italiana di Medicina Interna register, the proportion of patients with a very low drug use at hospital discharge increased overtime, thus reducing the therapeutic burden in this at risk population.

Abstract

Background: Recent scientific reports have shown that older persons treated with antipsychotics for dementia-related behavioural symptoms have increased mortality. However, the impact of these drugs prescribed during hospitalization has rarely been assessed. We aimed to investigate whether antipsychotics are associated with an increased risk of mortality during hospitalization and at 3-month follow-up in elderly inpatients. Methods: We analyzed data gathered during two waves (2010 and 2012) by the REPOSI (Registro Politerapie Società Italiana Medicina Interna). All new prescriptions of antipsychotic drugs during hospitalization, whether maintained or discontinued at discharge, were collected, and logistic regression models were used to analyze their association with in-hospital and 3-month mortality. Covariates were age, sex, the Short Blessed Test (SBT) score, and the Cumulative Illness Rating Scale. Results: Among 2703 patients included in the study, 135 (5%) received new prescriptions for antipsychotic drugs. The most frequently prescribed antipsychotic during hospitalization and eventually maintained at discharge was haloperidol (38% and 36% of cases, respectively). Patients newly prescribed with antipsychotics were older and had a higher Cumulative Illness Rating Scale comorbidity index both at admission and at discharge compared to those who did not receive a prescription. Of those prescribed antipsychotics, 71% had an SBT score ≥10 (indicative of dementia), 12% had an SBT score of 5-9 (indicative of questionable dementia); and 17% had an SBT score

Abstract

The major sources of body heat production are muscle activity, chemical reactions involving ATP synthesis and usage, coupled (oxidative phosphorylation) and uncoupled (proton leak) mitochondrial respiration. The cause of fever associated with sepsis has not been elucidated, particularly in sedated, ventilated patients who neither perform much voluntary skeletal muscle activity nor shiver.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Thrombopoietin (TPO), a growth factor primarily involved in thrombopoiesis may also have a role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. In patients with sepsis, indeed, TPO levels are markedly increased, with disease severity being the major independent determinant of TPO concentrations. Moreover, TPO increases and correlates with ex vivo indices of platelet activation in patients with burn injury upon sepsis development, and may contribute to depress cardiac contractility in septic shock. Still, the role of TPO in sepsis pathophysiology remains controversial, given the protective role of TPO in other experimental disease models, for instance in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. The aim of our study was to define the contribution of TPO in the development of organ damage induced by endotoxemia or sepsis, and to investigate the effects of inhibiting TPO in these conditions. METHODS:We synthesized a chimeric protein able to inhibit TPO, mTPOR-MBP, and studied its effect in two murine experimental models, acute endotoxemia and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model. RESULTS:In both models, TPO levels markedly increased, from 289.80±27.87 pg/mL to 465.60±45.92 pg/mL at 3 hours in the LPS model (P

Abstract

Background Usefulness of iron chelation therapy in myelodysplastic patients is still under debate but many authors suggest its possible role in improving survival of low-risk myelodysplastic patients. Several reports have described an unexpected effect of iron chelators, such as an improvement in hemoglobin levels, in patients affected by myelodysplastic syndromes. Furthermore, the novel chelator deferasirox induces a similar improvement more rapidly. Nuclear factor-κB is a key regulator of many cellular processes and its impaired activity has been described in different myeloid malignancies including myelodysplastic syndromes.Design and Methods We evaluated deferasirox activity on nuclear factor-κB in myelodysplastic syndromes as a possible mechanism involved in hemoglobin improvement during in vivo treatment. Forty peripheral blood samples collected from myelodysplastic syndrome patients were incubated with 50 μM deferasirox for 18h.Results Nuclear factor-κB activity dramatically decreased in samples showing high basal activity as well as in cell lines, whereas no similar behavior was observed with other iron chelators despite a similar reduction in reactive oxygen species levels. Additionally, ferric hydroxyquinoline incubation did not decrease deferasirox activity in K562 cells suggesting the mechanism of action of the drug is independent from cell iron deprivation by chelation. Finally, incubation with both etoposide and deferasirox induced an increase in K562 apoptotic rate.Conclusions Nuclear factor-κB inhibition by deferasirox is not seen from other chelators and is iron and reactive oxygen species scavenging independent. This could explain the hemoglobin improvement after in vivo treatment, such that our hypothesis needs to be validated in further prospective studies.

Abstract

Two complementary stereospecific synthetic approaches for the preparation of unsymmetrical ortho-substituted N-(4,4-diphenylbut-3-enyl) derivatives of nipecotic acid are described. Determination of the activity of the prepared compounds at the GAT-1 transporter highlighted differing SAR requirements of the E- and Z-phenyl rings, and led to the discovery of a compound with comparable potency to tiagabine. Some attempts to replace nipecotic acid with alternative novel amino acids are also described.

Abstract

Core-binding factor (CBF) leukemias are characterized by a high degree of sensitivity to high-dose cytarabine (ARA-C) treatment and by a relatively favorable prognosis compared with most other forms of adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The molecular basis of the response to chemotherapy is still being analyzed. The proteinase 3 (PR3) gene codes for a serine protease with a broad spectrum of proteolytic activity. PR3 is involved in the control of proliferation of myeloid leukemia cells, and when it is abnormally expressed, it confers factor-independent growth to hematopoietic cells. In this study, we analyzed the expression levels of PR3 in 113 AML patients. PR3 is highly expressed in AML, mainly in CBF leukemias in which PR3 is not only expressed, but also abnormally localized within the nuclear compartment. Nuclear PR3 results in cleavage of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB p65 into an inactive p56 subunit lacking any transcriptional activity. The nuclear localization of PR3 is responsible for increased proliferation, apoptosis arrest and increased sensitivity to high-dose ARA-C. This study provides a new molecular mechanism that is responsible for NF-kappaB inactivation and increased sensitivity to chemotherapy in CBF leukemias.Leukemia advance online publication, 14 January 2010; doi:10.1038/leu.2009.207.

Abstract

Abstract 3964 Poster Board III-900 Despite the role of Bcr-Abl in the pathogenesis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is well established, the mechanisms leading to CML progression remain unknown. By using our model of Drosophila melanogaster (Dm) transgenic for human Bcr-Abl we have identified Dab1 and Dab2 as genes involved in CML progression. In Dm the loss of function of these genes induced a worsening of the phenotype generated by hBcr-Abl expression. Moreover, an even stronger phenotype was obtained by silencing Disabled using RNAi fly strains. By contrast, Dab gain of function rescued Bcr-Abl phenotype. Disabled is a non receptor tyrosine kinase, identified in Dm as an adaptor protein acting downstream of many tyrosine kinases receptors (RTK). One of the human homolog of Disabled, Dab1 is a large common fragile site gene, involved in neural migration and the other homolog Dab2 codes is an adaptor protein implicated in RTK signalling, endocytosis, cell adhesion and differentiation. The downregulation of both genes is described in many types of cancer suggesting their possible role in oncogenesis but their involvement in haematological malignancies has never been described. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of Dab1/2 in CML progression. Dab1 and Dab2 mRNA was analyzed by Real Time PCR in 94 samples from 82 CML patients (34 PB and 60 BM). Among those patients 55 were collected at diagnosis (19 enrolled in TOPS study), 9 patients in CP collected at the time of imatinib resistance, 7 in accelerated phase and 11 in BC, In addition 21 healthy donors (10 PB and 11 BM). In 18 patients, genes expression was analyzed during remission as well. Protein expression was investigated by Western Blot and Immunofluorescence. In addition, K562 cells were transfected with Dab plasmids to gain insight about the effects of Dab1/2 on cell proliferation and apoptosis. We found that in CML patients Dab1/2 expression levels were significantly decreased in either BM or PB (p Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract

Abstract 3470 Poster Board III-358 The role of Bcr-Abl in the pathogenesis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is well established, however, the mechanisms leading to CML progression remain poorly understood. By using our model of transgenic Drosophila Melanogaster (Dm) for human Bcr-Abl driven CML we have identified Rab5 as a gene involved in the regulation of CML progression. The Rab5 is a member of gene family small GTPases which are involved in the regulation of vesicular transport. Lately several important reports have linked some members of the Rab family to invesivness and migration of cancer cells. Rab5 is associate with alpha-integrin subunits and modulates their endosomal traffic and subcellular localization. We have observed that a loss of function of Rab5 gene have induced a worsening of the CML phenotype generated by hBcr-Abl expression. In contrast, Rab gain of function rescued Bcr-Abl phenotype. The aim of the study was to evaluate the expression of Rab5 in CML cells to better understand if a potential correlation with progression, which has been observed in the model, could be confirmed in patients. Methods Rab5 gene expression was measured by Real Time PCR in 90 samples from 80 CML patients (32 PB and 58 BM). Among those, 53 are collected at diagnosis (19 of 53 patients have been enrolled in TOPS study). In addition, 9 samples from in CP patients have been collected at the time of imatinib resistance, 7 in accelerated phase and 11 in BC. In 14 patients, genes expression was analyzed during remission as, well. In parallel, 21 healthy donors (10 PB and 11 BM) have been evaluated. Rab5 protein expression was investigated by Western Blot and Immunofluorescence. We have also utilized K562 transfected with Rab5 plasmid, which we have generated to gain insight about the effects of Rab5 on cell proliferation and apoptosis. Results Rab5 transfection and overexpression in K562 significantly reduced proliferation and affected apoptosis. We found that in CML patients Rab5 expression levels were significantly decreased in either BM or PB (p Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract

To determine the presence of anti-thyroid antibodies in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) [antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) + recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA)], compare APS alone with APS and thyroid autoimmunity for fecundity and for pregnancy outcome.A total of 203 non-pregnant women affected with primary APS were evaluated for anti-thyroid antibodies; 162 non-pregnant women affected with RSA and thyroid autoimmunity alone served as controls.Anti-thyroid antibodies were found in 27% of APS patients studied. Patients with aPL alone had higher percentages of spontaneous pregnancies (P0.0001) and live births (P = 0.0003), when compared with patients positive for anti-thyroid antibodies alone or with aPL.Thyroid autoimmunity is frequently present in APS recurrent aborters and is often associated with either reduced fecundity or with poor pregnancy outcome. Thyroid antibodies should always be evaluated in women with RSA including those with aPL.

Abstract

A ureidocytosine (UCyt) module with a pendant amine linker at N-1 has been prepared for applications in supramolecular quadruple hydrogen bonded array synthesis. Subsequent conjugation to four amine terminated telechelic polymers led to the formation of oligomeric DDAA arrays, as determined by NMR diffusion measurements, establishing that N-1 as well as N-9 ureidocytosine polymeric arrays can readily be accessed.

Abstract

Despite the role of Bcr-Abl in the pathogenesis of CML is well established, the mechanisms responsible for CML progression remain unknown. The aim of the study was to perform a genome-wide screening to identify new genes and pathways leading to CML progression. We performed the genetic screening using our set-up model of human p210 Bcr-Abl (hBcr-Abl) transgenic Drosophila melanogaster (Dm) in which the tissue specific expression of hBcr-Abl is able to induce a severe eye phenotype or the formation of melanotic tumors, when expressed into the fly lymph gland, the Dm hematopoietic system. The whole fly genome containing 14.000 genes was analyzed using 278 fly stocks carrying well characterized chromosome deletions. The resulting progeny was screened using eye and lymph gland as first and second read-out system respectively. Data obtained from both screens were analyzed using the Gene Ontology software. These results were compared with gene expression signatures of CML from Microarray data. As final point, the identified genes were validated analyzing either BM or PB samples from CML patients and healthy donors. The analysis of eye/lymph gland-phenotypes in the progeny obtained from screen crosses, shows a first group of flies (38%) displaying a more aggressive phenotype since they lack genes encoding for hBcr-Abl negative regulators and a second group (32%) showing a mild phenotype due to the absence of genes involved in the oncogenic signalling. 42% of the 4000 Dm genes mapping in these regions displayed a known human counterpart. Gene Ontology profiles of these genes included oncogenes, tumor suppressors and genes involved in the regulation of transcription, signal transduction, proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and splicing. Moreover, a computational comparison of our results in fly with gene expression signatures of CML from Microarray data, showed only a partial overlap. Interestingly, the 72% of identified genes was not known to be involved in human leukaemia. However, further confirmation of our findings comes from the validation in human samples in which 1250 genes were found to be associated with CML; among these genes, we found not only an alteration of their expression profiles in CML patients compared to the healthy donors, but also protein alterations such as expression of different splicing forms or misplaced proteins, suggesting that Dm screening is a valid approach to identify not only differentially expressed genes but also specific pathways and genes otherwise altered by hBcr-Abl. In conclusion, the identification of these genes allows identifying of the changes occurring in CML at the genomic level and gives deeper insights into the molecular basis of the disease; moreover this study points to specific gene pathways that might represent new targets for therapy in CML in order to prevent or overcome resistance and progression.

Abstract

Despite the role of Bcr-Abl in the pathogenesis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is well established, the mechanisms leading to CML progression remain unknown. Using our model of Drosophila melanogaster (Dm) transgenic for human Bcr-Abl we identified Dab1 and Dab2, the homologs of Dm Disabled (Dab), as genes involved in CML progression. In Dm the Dab loss of function induced a worsening of the hBcr-Abl eye phenotype and an even stronger phenotype was obtained using Dab RNAi fly strains. By contrast, Dab gain of function rescued Bcr-Abl phenotype. Dab is an adaptor protein acting downstream of many receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). One of the human homolog of Dab, Dab1 is a large common fragile site gene involved in neural migration, and the other homolog Dab2 encodes an adaptor protein implicated in RTK signalling, endocytosis, cell adhesion and differentiation. The downregulation of both genes is described in many cancers suggesting their possible role in oncogenesis but their involvement in haematological malignancies has never been described. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of Dab1/2 in CML progression. Dab1 and Dab2 mRNA was analyzed by Real Time PCR in 94 samples from 82 CML patients (34 PB and 60 BM) distributed as follows: 55 patients at diagnosis (19 enrolled in TOPS study), 9 chronic phase (CP), 7 accelerated phase (AP) and 11 blast crisis (BC). 21 healthy donors (10 PB and 11 BM) were analyzed as control. In 18 patients, genes expression was analyzed during remission as well. Protein expression was evaluated by Western Blot (WB) and Immunofluorescence (IF). In addition, K562 cells were transfected with Dab plasmids to evaluate the effects on cell proliferation. We found that in CML patients Dab1/2 expression was significantly decreased both in BM and PB (p Note: This abstract was not presented at the AACR 101st Annual Meeting 2010 because the presenter was unable to attend.

Abstract 2186 Poster Board II-163 Despite the role of Bcr-Abl in the pathogenesis of Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) is well established, the mechanisms responsible for CML progression remain largely unknown. The aim of the study was to perform a genome-wide screening to identify new genes and pathways leading to CML progression. We performed a genome-wide genetic screening using our set-up model of human p210 Bcr-Abl transgenic Drosophila melanogaster (Dm) in which the expression of hBcr-Abl in a tissue specific manner is able to induce a severe eye-glazed phenotype or the formation of melanotic tumors, (clusters of hemocytes) when expressed into the fly lymph gland which represent the Dm hematopoietic system. A wide modifier screening of the whole fly genome containing approx 14.000 genes was performed using 278 fly stocks commercially available and carrying well characterized chromosome deletions. The resulting progeny was screened using the eye phenotype as first read-out system. Furthermore each deletion responsible for phenotype changes was analyzed either by expressing it into lymph gland as second read-out system, in order to analyze their function into a haematopoietic background and to exclude genes involved in eye development, such as genes able to modify the eye phenotype even without being directly involved in Bcr-Abl oncogenic signalling (false positives). Data obtained from primary and secondary screen were first analyzed using the Gene Ontology software. These results were compared with gene expression signatures of CML from Microarray data. As final point, the identified candidate genes were tested and validated analyzing either BM or PB samples from CML patients and healthy donors. 14.000 Dm genes were analyzed for their capability to genetically interact with hBcr-Abl in the fly model. The analysis of eye/lymph gland-phenotypes in the progeny obtained from screening crosses, shows a first group of flies (38%) displaying a more aggressive phenotype since they lack genes encoding for hBcr-Abl negative regulators and a second group (32%) showing a mild phenotype due to the absence of genes involved in the oncogenic signalling. We found that 42% of the 4000 Dm genes mapping in the deleted regions able to modify Bcr-Abl phenotype, displayed a known human counterpart.

Moreover, a computational comparison of our results with gene expression signatures of CML from Microarray data, showed only a partially overlap between genes identified in fly screen and genes obtained from Microarray analysis. The 72% of identified genes in fact was not known to be involved in human leukaemia. However, further confirmation of our findings into fly comes from the validation in human samples in which 1250 genes were found to be significantly associated with human CML; among these genes, we found not only an alteration of their expression profiles in CML patients with respect to the healthy donors, but also protein alterations, such as expression of different splicing forms or misplaced proteins, suggesting that Dm screening is a valid approach able to identify not only differentially expressed genes but also specific pathways and genes otherwise altered by hBcr-Abl.

Abstract

Treatment with anti-TNF agents is well established in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Anti-TNF agents are capable of modulating complement activity in vitro but there are no data on the in vivo effect. Anti-TNF have high costs and potential risks, thus, there is an urgent need for accurate predictors of response. We aimed at studying the usefulness of erythrocyte-sedimentation-rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and complement for response prediction and monitoring of anti-TNF treatment in PsA patients.Fifty-five patients were included consecutively before starting etanercept or adalimumab. ESR, CRP, plasma complement C3, C4, and C3 and B cleavage fragments were evaluated at baseline and after 22 weeks of anti-TNF treatment. Disease activity was measured with DAS28 and response to therapy with EULAR criteria. Complement was evaluated at baseline in 30 healthy subjects as well.At baseline, C3 and C4 levels were significantly higher than in controls (C3 126.9±22 vs. 110±25 mg/dl, p=0.000002; C4 31.2±9.2 vs. 22.7±8.3 mg/dl, p=0.0003). After anti-TNF therapy, C3 and C4 levels were significantly reduced to normalization (p=0.0009 and 0.0005, respectively) and ESR, CRP and DAS28 showed a significant reduction (p=0.002, 0.004 and 0.0001, respectively). Split products of C3 and B were not observed at baseline and after 22 weeks. Higher baseline C3 levels were associated with EULAR non-response (p=0.011).PsA patients with moderate to severe disease show elevated C3 and C4 levels, reverted by anti-TNF treatment. High C3 may be considered a hallmark of inflammation and C3 revealed the highest predictive value for response to anti-TNF.

Abstract

IgE-mediated food allergy is characterized immunologically by a type 1 immune response triggered upon exposure to specific foods and clinically by a broad range of manifestations and variable severity. Our understanding of food allergy within the allergic march of atopic dermatitis (AD) is still incomplete despite the related risk of unpredictable and potentially severe associated reactions such as anaphylactic shock. The aim of this pilot study was to investigate the effects of dupilumab, an IL-4/IL-13 monoclonal antibody approved for AD, on the allergic sensitization profile of patients with AD and type 1 hypersensitivity-related comorbidities, including oral allergy syndrome, anaphylaxis, and gastrointestinal disorders. We conducted an observational pilot study with a longitudinal prospective design, enrolling 20 patients eligible for treatment with dupilumab. Laboratory exams for total serum IgE, specific IgE, and molecular allergen components were performed at baseline and after 16 weeks of therapy. Our results demonstrate a statistically significant decrease in molecular components, specific IgE for trophoallergens, and specific IgE for aeroallergens following treatment with dupilumab. We suggest that modulating type 2 immunity may decrease IgE-mediated responses assessed with laboratory exams and therefore could minimize allergic symptoms in polysensitized patients. Upcoming results of randomized controlled trials investigating dupilumab in food allergy are highly anticipated to confirm its potential effect in the treatment of IgE-mediated food allergies.

Abstract

In recent years, the growing use of ART (assisted reproductive techniques) has led to a progressive improvement of protocols; embryo freezing is certainly one of the most important innovations. This technique is selectively offered as a tailored approach to reduce the incidence of multiple pregnancies and, most importantly, to lower the risk of developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome when used in conjunction with an ovulation-triggering GnRH antagonist. The increase in transfer cycles with frozen embryos made it possible to study the effects of the technique in children thus conceived. Particularly noteworthy is the increase in macrosomal and LGA (large for gestational age) newborns, in addition to a decrease in SGA (small for gestational age) and LBW (low birth weight) newborns. The authors aimed to outline a broad-ranging narrative review by summarizing and elaborating on the most important evidence regarding the neonatal outcome of children born from frozen embryos and provide information on the medium and long-term follow- up of these children. However, given the relatively recent large-scale implementation of such techniques, further studies are needed to provide more conclusive evidence on outcomes and implications.
