Introduction La pneumopathie infiltrante diffuse (PID) est une association rare des vascularites associees aux ANCA (VAA) et est habituellement associee a la presence d’anticorps anti-MPO [1] . Cependant, l’impact des PID sur le pronostic des VAA n’est pas connu. L’objectif de ce travail etait de comparer des patients atteints de VAA avec PID a des patients presentant une VAA sans PID. Patients et methodes Une etude retrospective observationnelle multicentrique a ete menee de novembre 2016 a aout 2017 dans 22 centres appartenant au GFEV. Les patients inclus repondaient aux criteres diagnostiques de granulomatose avec polyangeite (GPA) ou de polyangeite microscopique (PAM) selon la nomenclature de Chapel Hill revisee en 2012. L’atteinte pulmonaire etait definie par une PID de type usuelle (UIP) ou non specifique (PINS) (criteres ATS/ERS de 2001) selon les resultats du scanner thoracique. Les patients presentant un autre type de PID ou une granulomatose eosinophilique avec polyangeite ont ete exclus de l’analyse. Ces patients ont ete compares a des patients atteints de VAA sans PID issus de la base de donnees du GFEV, apres appariement (2 temoins pour 1 cas) sur l’âge (≥ ou Resultats Soixante-trois patients presentant une VAA avec PID ont ete compares a 126 patients atteints de VAA sans PID. Parmi les VAA avec PID, 52/63 (83 %) presentaient une PAM ; et le diagnostic de la PID etait prealable au diagnostic de vascularite dans 52 % des cas, concomitant dans 38 % des cas et plus tardif dans 10 % des cas (delai median = 1 an). Il s’agissait d’une UIP dans 63 % des cas et d’une PINS dans 35 % des cas. L’âge au diagnostic de VAA etait de 66 ans (57,2–74,7). La mediane de suivi etait plus courte dans le groupe VAA avec PID : 40 (21–61) vs 66 (36–133) mois (p La survie 5 ans n’etait pas statistiquement differente entre VAA avec PID et VAA sans PID : 72 vs 81 % (p = 0,472). Toutefois, en prenant en compte le type d’atteinte pulmonaire, la survie des patients atteints de VAA avec UIP etait diminuee (62,3 % a 5 ans) par rapport aux VAA sans PID (80,9 % a 5 ans) et aux PINS (87,5 % a 5 ans) (p = 0,03). En analyse multivariee, les facteurs associes a une diminution de la survie etaient le sexe masculin (hazard ratio [HR] = 1,99 ; p = 0,021), l’existence au diagnostic de VAA d’une hemorragie alveolaire (HR = 2,43 ; p = 0,008), d’une atteinte renale (HR = 2,29 ; p = 0,029), d’un âge > 65 ans (HR = 6,2 ; p Conclusion Cette etude montre la valeur pronostique pejorative de la PID de type UIP au cours des VAA. Cette association concerne essentiellement les PAM, laissant supposer qu’il existe un lien physiopathologique entre anticorps anti-MPO et PID au cours des VAA. L’effet benefique d’un traitement immunosuppresseur en induction ou en entretien en cas de VAA avec PID n’est pas retrouve dans notre etude, ce qui est probablement lie a un manque de puissance puisque tres peu de patients ont recu un traitement par corticoides seuls.

Introduction L’arterite a cellules geantes (ACG) est une vascularite non necrosante touchant les vaisseaux de gros calibre, caracterisee par la presence de cellules geantes. A l’inverse, les vascularites associees aux ANCA (VAA) sont des vascularites necrosantes touchant preferentiellement les vaisseaux de petit calibre. Toutefois, des VAA peuvent se reveler par une arterite temporale avec des manifestations evocatrices d’ACG. Dans des series de biopsies d’arteres temporales anormales, certaines se revelaient etre des VAA. La prise en charge therapeutique et le pronostic sont pourtant differents entre ces 2 entites. Materiels et methodes Nous avons realise une etude retrospective, nationale, multicentrique, observationnelle incluant des patients atteints d’une VAA (granulomatose avec polyangeite ou GPA, granulomatose eosinophilique avec polyangeite ou GEPA, polyangeite microscopique ou MPA) revelees par une symptomatologie d’arterite temporale. Les patients ont ete identifies par appel a observations suivie d’une analyse retrospective de dossiers. Resultats Quarante-quatre patients (20 hommes et 24 femmes, âge median 70,5 ans [54–89]) ont ete inclus. Le diagnostic d’arterite temporale et de VAA etait concomitant chez 16 patients (36 %), tandis que le diagnostic d’arterite temporale precedait celui de VAA dans 28 cas (64 %), avec un intervalle median de 15,2 mois (1,1–1354). Tous les patients repondaient aux criteres de classification de l’ACG selon l’American College of Rheumatology. Les manifestations cliniques au moment du diagnostic d’arterite temporale etaient : signes cephaliques dans 39 cas (89 %), dont cephalees (70 %), claudication de la mâchoire (45 %), hyperesthesie du scalp (45 %) et abolition d’un pouls temporal (16 %), signes generaux dans 36 cas (81 %), signes ophtalmologiques dans 7 cas (16 %), dont flou visuel dans 7 %, diplopie dans 5 % et cecite binoculaire dans 2 %, douleurs rhizomeliques dans 13 cas (30 %), et toux dans 12 cas (27 %). Les patients n’ayant pas de signes cephaliques presentaient tous des signes inflammatoires compatibles avec une ACG sur la biopsie de l’artere temporale (BAT). Trente patients (68 %) presentaient des le diagnostic d’arterite temporale des signes cliniques atypiques evoquant une VAA : signes ORL chez 13 patients (30 %), atteinte pulmonaire chez 10 patients (23 %), renale chez 8 patients (18 %), neuropathie peripherique dans 6 cas (13 %), signes digestifs chez 5 patients (11 %), signes cutanes chez 4 patients (9 %), atteintes oculaire et cardiaque dans 2 cas (5 %) chacun. La CRP etait elevee dans 98 % des cas (mediane 108,5 mg/L). Quand ils etaient realises au diagnostic de l’arterite temporale (n = 28), les ANCA etaient presents dans 89 % des cas, de specificite anti-MPO dans 60 % des cas et anti-PR3 dans 40 % des cas. La BAT etait anormale dans 26 cas mais presentait des signes de VAA (necrose, vascularite des petits vaisseaux) dans 9 cas (35 %). Concernant la VAA, il s’agissait d’une GPA le plus souvent (28 cas, 64 %), d’une PAM dans 14 cas (32 %) et d’une GEPA dans 2 cas (4 %). Vingt-quatre patients (55 %) etaient sous corticotherapie lors de la survenue de la VAA. Les manifestations au moment du diagnostic de VAA etaient : signes generaux dans 24 cas (55 %), atteinte ORL dans 22 cas (50 %), atteinte pulmonaire dans 20 cas (46 %), neuropathie peripherique dans 15 cas (34 %), atteinte renale, ophtalmique ou cephalique dans 12 cas (27 %) chacun, atteinte cutanee dans 8 cas (18 %), atteinte neurologique centrale dans 5 cas (11 %) et atteinte digestive dans 4 cas (9 %). Trois patients presentaient un pachymeningite (7 %). Au diagnostic de la VAA, les ANCA etaient realises chez tous les patients. Ils etaient positifs chez 39 patients (89 %), avec une specificite anti-MPO dans 25 cas, anti-PR3 dans 13 cas et sans specificite dans un cas. Une preuve histologique de la VAA etait disponible dans 27 % des cas dans un autre site que la BAT. Tous les patients ont recu une corticotherapie, et 37 (84 %) ont recu au moins un immunosuppresseur, incluant du cyclophosphamide (57 %), de l’azathioprine (27 %), du rituximab (27 %) ou du methotrexate (11 %). Apres un delai moyen de suivi de 39,7 mois, 12 patients avaient presente une rechute de la VAA (5 majeures et 7 mineures) et 5 patients sont decedes. Conclusion Devant un tableau d’arterite temporale, chez un patient de plus de 50 ans, une vascularite necrosante doit etre recherchee au meme titre qu’une ACG, notamment en cas de manifestations cliniques inhabituelles de l’ACG. Les ANCA doivent etre systematiquement recherches et la biopsie de l’artere temporale est preconisee.

SR 31747 is a novel immunosuppressant agent that arrests cell proliferation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, SR 31747-treated cells accumulate the same aberrant sterols as those found in a mutant impaired in delta 8- delta 7-sterol isomerase. Sterol isomerase activity is also inhibited by SR 31747 in in vitro assays. Overexpression of the sterol isomerase-encoding gene, ERG2, confers enhanced SR resistance. Cells growing anaerobically on ergosterol-containing medium are not sensitive to SR. Disruption of the sterol isomerase-encoding gene is lethal in cells growing in the absence of exogenous ergosterol, except in SR-resistant mutants lacking either the SUR4 or the FEN1 gene product. The results suggest that sterol isomerase is the target of SR 31747 and that both the SUR4 and FEN1 gene products are required to mediate the proliferation arrest induced by ergosterol depletion.

Atmospheric escape has been detected from the exoplanet HD 209458b through transit observations of the hydrogen Lyman-alpha line. Here we present spectrally resolved Lyman-alpha transit observations of the exoplanet HD 189733b at two different epochs. These HST/STIS observations show for the first time, that there are significant temporal variations in the physical conditions of an evaporating planetary atmosphere. While atmospheric hydrogen is not detected in the first epoch observations, it is observed at the second epoch, producing a transit absorption depth of 14.4+/-3.6% between velocities of -230 to -140 km/s. Contrary to HD 209458b, these high velocities cannot arise from radiation pressure alone and require an additional acceleration mechanism, such as interactions with stellar wind protons. The observed absorption can be explained by an atmospheric escape rate of neutral hydrogen atoms of about 10^9 g/s, a stellar wind with a velocity of 190 km/s and a temperature of ~10^5K. An X-ray flare from the active star seen with Swift/XRT 8 hours before the second-epoch observation supports the idea that the observed changes within the upper atmosphere of the planet can be caused by variations in the stellar wind properties, or by variations in the stellar energy input to the planetary escaping gas (or a mix of the two effects). These observations provide the first indication of interaction between the exoplanet's atmosphere and stellar variations., To be published in A&A Letters, June 28, 2012

SR31747 is a novel agent that elicits immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory effects. This drug was shown to inhibit Delta8-Delta7 sterol isomerase in yeast. To test whether this enzyme could also be an SR31747 target in mammals, the binding, antiproliferative and sterol biosynthesis inhibitory properties of various drugs were studied in recombinant sterol isomerase-producing yeast cells. Our results clearly show that SR31747 is a high affinity ligand of recombinant mammalian sterol isomerase (Kd = 1 nM). Tridemorph, a sterol biosynthesis inhibitor that is widely used in agriculture as an antifungal agent, is also a powerful inhibitor of murine and human sterol isomerases (IC50 value in the nanomolar range). Some drugs, like cis-flupentixol, trifluoperazine, 7-ketocholestanol and tamoxifen, inhibit SR31747 binding only with the mammalian enzymes, whereas other drugs, like haloperidol and fenpropimorph, are much more effective with the yeast enzyme than with the mammalian ones. Emopamil, a high affinity ligand of human sterol isomerase, is inefficient in inhibiting SR31747 binding to its mammalian target, suggesting that the SR31747 and emopamil binding sites on mammalian sterol isomerase do not overlap. In contrast, SR31747 binding inhibition by tamoxifen is very efficient and competitive (IC50 value in the nanomolar range), indicating that mammalian sterol isomerase contains a so-called antiestrogen binding site. Tamoxifen is found to selectively inhibit sterol biosynthesis at the sterol isomerase step in the cells that are producing the mammalian enzyme in place of their own sterol isomerase. Finally, we also show that tridemorph, a sterol biosynthesis inhibitor widely used in agriculture as an antifungal agent, is not selective of yeast Delta8-Delta7 sterol isomerase but is also highly efficient against murine Delta8-Delta7 sterol isomerase or human Delta8-Delta7 sterol isomerase. This observation contrasts with our already published results showing that fenpropimorph, another sterol isomerase inhibitor used in agriculture, is only poorly efficient against the mammalian enzymes.

Biological effects of solutions of non-histone chromatin-associated proteins on cell differentiation in vitro Nuclear non-histone (NNH) proteins, both chromatin-associated and otherwise, have been prepared in defined conditions, either from nuclei or from washed chromatin. When these NNH proteins are homospecific, they produce inhibitory effects on morphological differentiation of embryonic Urodelan Amphibian cells cultivated in vitro. When they are heterospecific, on the contrary, they have no action on the differentiation of those cells. It is concluded that the effects of the non-histone proteins on cell differentiation depend upon the relationship between the animal species which is used to provide the proteins and that used to provide the reactive material.

- Abstract
Objectives: Common Variable Immunodeficiency Disorders (CVID) and Large Granular Lymphocytes leukemia (LGLL) exhibit diverse clinical manifestations including infections, dysimmunity, and lymphoproliferation. Recent decades have seen the discovery of new genes in the lymphopoiesis pathway, such as JAK-STAT. This case series supplemented by a literature review aims to describe clinical and biological characteristics of patients with both CIVD and LGLL., Methodology: Patients were included through a call for comments to French and Belgian centers and through a literature review via PubMed. Clinical characteristics were compared to two large French cohort involving CVID and LGLL patients., Results: Twelve patients were included. In all cases, CVID precedes LLGL (median diagnosis delay for LLGL was 7 years). Most cases presented with splenomegaly and autoimmune cytopenia. Ten out of 12 patients underwent splenectomy during follow up., Conclusions: Patients with LGLL and CVID differ from patients without immune deficiency in term of clinical presentation and prognosis. We suggest CVID may act as a trigger of LGL lymphocytosis, due to endogenous and exogenous antigenic pressure leading to the selection of a dominant LGL clone and stimulation of the JAK-STAT pathway. The role of splenomegaly and splenectomy in LGLL onset warrant further investigation in future studies., (© 2024 The Author(s). European Journal of Haematology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

- Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical efficacy of tixagevimab/cilgavimab in pre-exposure prophylaxis in patients at risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and unresponsive to vaccination (anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antibodies <260 binding antibody units/ml) in rheumatology., Methods: In this multicentre observational study we included patients with autoimmune or inflammatory diseases who received pre-exposure prophylaxis with tixagevimab/cilgavimab between December 2021 and August 2022. The endpoint was incidence of COVID-19 and its severity., Results: Tixagevimab/cilgavimab was administered to 115 patients with a median age of 62 years [interquartile range (IQR) 52-71], chronic arthritis (n = 53), connective tissue disease (n = 38) or vasculitis (n = 11). The main background immunosuppressants were rituximab (n = 98), corticosteroids [n = 62; median dose 5 mg (95% CI 5-8)] and methotrexate (n = 48). During a median follow-up of 128 days (IQR 93-173), COVID-19 occurred in 23/115 patients (20%) and the omicron variant was identified for the eight genotyped patients. During the study period, the average weekly incidence was 1071/100 000 inhabitants in Île-de-France vs 588/100 000 in our patients. Patients who received a two-injection regimen had a lower risk of infection than those with a single injection [16/49 (33%) vs 5/64 (8%), P = 0.0012]. The COVID-19-positive patients did not differ from uninfected patients concerning age, comorbidities, underlying rheumatic disease and immunosuppressants. All COVID-19 cases were non-severe. The tolerance of injections was excellent., Conclusion: In a population with autoimmune or inflammatory diseases at risk of severe COVID-19 unresponsive to vaccination, pre-exposure prophylaxis withy tixagevimab/cilgavimab was associated with a lower incidence of COVID-19 and no severe infections., (© The Author(s) 2023.

- Abstract
Tularemia is a zoonotic infection caused by Francisella tularensis. Its most typical manifestations in humans are ulceroglandular and glandular; infections in prosthetic joints are rare. We report 3 cases of F. tularensis subspecies holarctica-related prosthetic joint infection that occurred in France during 2016-2019. We also reviewed relevant literature and found only 5 other cases of Francisella-related prosthetic joint infections worldwide, which we summarized. Among those 8 patients, clinical symptoms appeared 7 days to 19 years after the joint placement and were nonspecific to tularemia. Although positive cultures are typically obtained in only 10% of tularemia cases, strains grew in all 8 of the patients. F. tularensis was initially identified in 2 patients by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry; molecular methods were used for 6 patients. Surgical treatment in conjunction with long-term antimicrobial treatment resulted in favorable outcomes; no relapses were seen after 6 months of follow-up.

- Abstract
Objective: Temporal arteritis (TA) is a typical manifestation of giant cell arteritis (GCA). Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAVs) are rarely revealed by TA manifestations, leading to a risk of misdiagnosis of GCA and inappropriate treatments. This study was undertaken to describe the clinical, biologic, and histologic presentations and outcomes in cases of TA revealing AAV (TA-AAV) compared to controls with classic GCA., Methods: In this retrospective case-control study, the characteristics of patients with TA-AAV were compared to those of control subjects with classic GCA. Log-rank test, with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs), was used to assess the risk of treatment failure., Results: Fifty patients with TA-AAV (median age 70 years) were included. Thirty-three patients (66%) presented with atypical symptoms of GCA (ear, nose, and throat involvement in 32% of patients, and renal, pulmonary, and neurologic involvement in 26%, 20%, and 16% of patients, respectively). Blood samples were screened for ANCAs at the time of disease onset in 33 patients, and results were positive in 88%, leading to a diagnosis of early TA-AAV in 20 patients. The diagnosis of AAV was delayed a median interval of 15 months in 30 patients. Compared to controls with GCA, patients with TA-AAV were younger (median age 70 years versus 74 years), were more frequently men (48% versus 30%), and had high frequencies of atypical manifestations and higher C-reactive protein levels (median 10.8 mg/dl versus 7.0 mg/dl). In patients with TA-AAV, temporal artery biopsy (TAB) showed fibrinoid necrosis and small branch vasculitis in 23% of patients each, whereas neither of these characteristics was evident in controls with GCA. Treatment failure-free survival was comparable between early TA-AAV cases and GCA controls, whereas those with delayed TA-AAV had a significantly higher risk of treatment failure compared to controls (HR 3.85, 95% CI 1.97-7.51; P < 0.0001)., Conclusion: TA-AAV should be considered diagnostically in cases of atypical manifestations of GCA, refractoriness to glucocorticoid treatment, or early relapse. Analysis of TAB specimens for the detection of small branch vasculitis and/or fibrinoid necrosis could be useful. Detection of ANCAs should be performed in cases of suspected GCA with atypical clinical features and/or evidence of temporal artery abnormalities on TAB., (© 2020, American College of Rheumatology.)

- Abstract
Background: Progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) is rarely associated with antineutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). This study focused on the outcomes of ILD patients with associated AAV (AAV-ILD)., Methods: AAV-ILD (cases: microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) or granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) with ILD) were compared to AAV patients without ILD (controls). ILD was defined as a usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern. Two controls were matched to each case for age (>or ≤65 years), ANCA status (PR3-or MPO-positive) and creatininemia (≥or <150 μmol/L)., Results: Sixty-two cases (89% MPO-ANCA+) were included. Median age at AAV diagnosis was 66 years. ILD (63% UIP), was diagnosed before (52%) or simultaneously (39%) with AAV. Cases versus 124 controls less frequently had systemic vasculitis symptoms. One-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rates, respectively, were: 96.7%, 80% and 66% for cases versus 93.5%, 89.6% and 83.8% for controls (p = 0.008). Multivariate analyses retained age >65 years (hazard ratio (HR) 4.54; p < 0.001), alveolar haemorrhage (HR 2.25; p = 0.019) and UIP (HR 2.73; p = 0.002), but not immunosuppressant use, as factors independently associated with shorter survival., Conclusion: For AAV-ILD patients, only UIP was associated with poorer prognosis. Immunosuppressants did not improve the AAV-ILD prognosis. But in analogy to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, anti-fibrosing agents might be useful and should be assessed in AAV-ILD patients with a UIP pattern., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
Background: Age at onset of large-vessel vasculitis (LVV) is commonly used to distinguish giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TA). However, LVV between age 50 and 60 years may be difficult to classify., Methods: We conducted a retrospective study including LVV aged between 50 and 60 years at onset (LVV
50-60 , cases) and compared them to LVV aged over 60 years (LVV>60 , controls). LVV was defined histologically and/or morphologically. Controls fulfilled ACR 1990 criteria for GCA or presented isolated aortitis., Results: We included 183 LVV50-60 and 183 gender-matched LVV>60 . LVV50-60 had more frequent peripheral limb manifestations (23 vs. 5%), and less frequent cephalic (73 vs. 90%) and ocular signs (17 vs. 27%) than LVV>60 . Compared to LVV>60 , CT angiography and PET/CT scan were more frequently abnormal in LVV50-60 (74 vs. 38%, and 90 vs. 72%, respectively), with aorta being more frequently involved (78 vs. 47%). By multivariate analysis, absence of cephalic symptoms, presence of peripheral limb ischemia and aorta involvement, and increased CRP level were significantly associated with LVV50-60 presentation compared to LVV>60 . At last follow-up, compared to LVV>60 , LVV50-60 received significantly more lines of treatment (2 vs. 1), more frequent biologics (12 vs. 3%), had more surgery (10 vs. 0%), and had higher prednisone dose (8.8 vs. 6.5 mg/d) at last follow-up, CONCLUSION: LVV onset between 50 and 60 years identifies a subset of patients with more frequent aorta and peripheral vascular involvement and more refractory disease compared to patients with LVV onset after 60., (Copyright © 2019.

23. Can all cosmological observations be accurately interpreted with a unique geometry?

Fleury P, Dupuy H, and Uzan JP
- Abstract
The recent analysis of the Planck results reveals a tension between the best fits for (Ω(m0), H(0)) derived from the cosmic microwave background or baryonic acoustic oscillations on the one hand, and the Hubble diagram on the other hand. These observations probe the Universe on very different scales since they involve light beams of very different angular sizes; hence, the tension between them may indicate that they should not be interpreted the same way. More precisely, this Letter questions the accuracy of using only the (perturbed) Friedmann-Lemaître geometry to interpret all the cosmological observations, regardless of their angular or spatial resolution. We show that using an inhomogeneous "Swiss-cheese" model to interpret the Hubble diagram allows us to reconcile the inferred value of Ω(m0) with the Planck results. Such an approach does not require us to invoke new physics nor to violate the Copernican principle.
