BACKGROUND: Monocytes and macrophages are implicated in inflammation and atherosclerosis, whereas monocytes are involved in psoriasis lesion formation. We previously reported a psoriatic inflammation-associated significant decrease in the membrane protein caveolin-1 (CAV-1) in psoriasis patient monocytes. However, the phenotype of circulating monocytes and their macrophage differentiation in psoriasis patients remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: We sought to clarify circulating monocyte and monocyte-derived macrophage (MDM) phenotypes in psoriasis patients with and without comorbidities. METHODS: Thirty-one patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 28 control subjects were included. Surface macrophage markers and inflammatory status were examined in circulating monocytes and MDMs from both groups. Expression of CD36, which mediates macrophage uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), was evaluated in these cells. CAV-1-silenced monocytes were differentiated into macrophages to investigate the effects of CAV-1 downregulation on psoriatic inflammation and atherosclerosis. RESULTS: Macrophage surface markers were detectable in circulating monocytes. A significant M1 shift was detected in monocytes and MDMs in psoriasis patients, including those without cardiovascular disease risk factors, as compared to controls. MDMs of psoriasis patients had more CD36-expressing cells, which are associated with atherosclerosis risk. Additionally, CAV-1-silencing in monocytes increased the likelihood of M1-biased macrophage differentiation and increased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. CONCLUSIONS: Monocytes from psoriasis patients were more likely to differentiate into M1-dominant macrophages, correlating with inflammatory status and CAV-1 expression. These aberrant inflammatory monocytes not only contribute to psoriatic inflammation by producing psoriatic cytokines, but also have a phenotype that could increase atherosclerosis risk by uptake of oxLDL and formation of foam cells.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are fatal adverse skin reactions characterized by high fever, epidermal detachment, and mucositis. It is well known that SJS/TEN occasionally affects various organs, leading to permanent damage and death in some patients. Although acute liver dysfunction is a relatively common complication of SJS/TEN, severe acute liver dysfunction requiring liver transplantation is rare. We present the case of a 14-year-old girl with SJS complicated by severe and rapidly progressive liver dysfunction, specifically, acute liver failure (ALF) requiring liver transplantation. A lymphocyte transformation test showed positive results for acetaminophen and cefdinir. Furthermore, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotyping revealed the presence of the HLA-A*02:06 genotype, which is reported to be strongly associated with acetaminophen-related SJS/TEN with severe ocular complications. These results suggested that our patient may have presented with acetaminophen-induced SJS complicated by ALF, but no ocular complications. This is the first report of a pediatric patient with SJS who required liver transplantation. In rare instances, severe liver dysfunction requiring liver transplantation should be considered as a possible complication of SJS/TEN.

BACKGROUND: Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare but life-threatening disorders characterized by widespread epidermal necrosis of the skin and mucosa. The severity-of-illness scoring system for TEN (SCORTEN) was widely used since 2000 as a standard prognostic tool consisting of seven clinical values. METHODS: To evaluate the prognosis using current treatments and risk factors for mortality, we retrospectively analyzed 59 cases of TEN, including SJS/TEN overlap treated in two university hospitals from January 2000 to March 2020. RESULTS: The mortality rate of TEN was 13.6% (8/59). All patients treated with high-dose steroid administration in combination with plasma exchange and/or immunoglobulin therapy recovered. Logistic regression analysis showed nine clinical composite scores, namely: heart rate (≧120 bpm), malignancy present, percentage of body surface area with epidermal detachment (>10%), blood urea nitrogen (>28 mg/dL), serum bicarbonate level (<20 mEq/L), serum glucose level (>252 mg/dL), age (≧71 years), the interval between disease onset and treatment initiation at the specialty hospital (≧8 days), and respiratory disorder within 48 h after admission. The receiver operating characteristic curves confirmed a high potential for predicting the prognosis of TEN. CONCLUSIONS: Recent developments in treatment strategies have contributed to the improved prognosis of TEN patients. A modified severity scoring model composed of nine scores may be helpful in the prediction of TEN prognosis in recent patients. Further large-scale studies are needed to confirm mortality findings to improve prognostication in patients with TEN.

High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) is a highly abundant pro-inflammatory protein associated with the pathogenesis of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. HMGB-1 expression level increases in patients with psoriasis vulgaris (PV). However, HMGB-1 expression in patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is unknown. In this study, we investigated HMGB-1 expression in GPP. HMGB-1 expression levels were examined in the skin and serum of patients with GPP, PV, atopic dermatitis (AD) and healthy controls (HC) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemistry. The elevation in HMGB-1 expression was significantly higher in GPP patients than in PV, AD and HC patients. In addition, patients with GPP had elevated serum HMGB-1 levels compared with those with AD and HC. Furthermore, serum HMGB-1 levels were significantly decreased after systemic treatment. In the correlation analysis, a significant positive correlation was detected between serum HMGB-1 levels and the Japanese severity score for GPP. HMGB-1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of GPP and can be useful to evaluate disease severity and the effectiveness of GPP treatment.

Scleroderma-associated pulmonary fibrosis (SSc-PF) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are two of many chronic fibroproliferative diseases that are responsible for nearly 45% of all deaths in developed countries. While sharing several pathobiological characteristics, they also have very distinct features. Currently no effective anti-fibrotic treatments exist that can halt the progression of PF or reverse it. Our goal is to uncover potential gene targets for the development of anti-fibrotic therapies efficacious in both diseases, and those specific to SSc-PF, by identifying universal pathways and molecules driving fibrosis in SSc-PF and IPF tissues as well as those unique to SSc-PF. Using DNA microarray data, a meta-analysis of the differentially expressed (DE) genes in SSc-PF and IPF lung tissues (diseased vs. normal) was performed followed by a full systems level analysis of the common and unique transcriptomic signatures obtained. Protein-protein interaction networks were generated to identify hub proteins and explore the data using the centrality principle. Our results suggest that therapeutic strategies targeting IL6 trans-signaling, IGFBP2, IGFL2, and the coagulation cascade may be efficacious in both SSc-PF and IPF. Further, our data suggest that the expression of matrikine-producing collagens is also perturbed in PF. Lastly, an overall perturbation of bioenergetics, specifically between glycolysis and fatty acid metabolism, was uncovered in SSc-PF. Our findings provide insights into potential targets for the development of anti-fibrotic therapies that could be effective in both IPF and SSc-PF.

Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is an anthracycline anticancer agent used in ovarian cancer and a form of doxorubicin enclosed in pegylated liposomes. There are only a few reports on intertrigo-like eruptions caused by PLD. We describe the first case of severe bullous erythema, including intertrigo-like eruptions with angioedema, induced by PLD in Japan. We present the case of a 53-year-old woman who was diagnosed with stage IIIC ovarian cancer. After receiving three cycles of PLD, the patient developed swelling of the upper lip and painful erythema with blisters and erosions on the axilla, upper back, flank and wrists. The patient was diagnosed with angioedema and severe skin lesions, including intertrigo-like eruptions induced by PLD. Although treatment with oral prednisolone and topical steroids was effective against these eruptions, the administration of PLD was discontinued because of its ineffectiveness against the primary disease. Several risk factors, such as obesity, perspiration and racial differences, may contribute toward a severe manifestation such as that seen in our patient. Moreover, our case was the first accompanied by angioedema. The mechanism of coexistence of intertrigo-like eruptions and angioedema is not clear; further studies are required to clarify the pathological mechanism of intertrigo-like eruptions.

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare condition, causing life-threatening adverse cutaneous reactions. TEN occurrence after bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is a well-known phenomenon; however, to date, only a few cases have been reported in the published work. Here, we describe the case of a 53-year-old woman who experienced TEN after undergoing allogenic BMT for malignant lymphoma. Skin erosion spread across a maximum of 70% of the body surface area and severe mucosal lesions developed. Steroid pulse therapy, plasma apheresis and immunoglobulin therapy were administrated, which resulted in the complete resolution of TEN. However, she developed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and died 38 days after BMT, owing to rupture of the lower digestive tract complicated by multi-organ failure. In our case, engraftment failure occurred, and the peripheral white blood cell count was less than 100/μL during the TEN course, suggesting that the presence of only a few immune cells could cause TEN. Our findings showed that high mortality rates and widespread skin erosion could be regarded as the most important characteristics of TEN occurring after BMT.

Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) is the principal component of caveolae that regulates a variety of signaling molecules and receptors. Our previous study revealed CAV-1 reduction in the epidermis of patients with psoriasis, which leads to enhanced Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription activation and cytokine production, suggesting that aberrant CAV-1 expression may contribute to psoriatic inflammation. This study aimed to investigate whether abnormal modulation of CAV-1 on immune cells is involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. We observed that CAV-1 level in psoriasis patients was apparently reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and it was prominent in CD14+ monocytes. CAV-1 silencing in monocytes represented elevated levels of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6, and those had enhanced chemotaxis activity. In a murine model of psoriasis-like inflammation induced by imiquimod, we observed a significant CAV-1 reduction in PBMCs. Systemic administration of CAV-1 scaffolding domain peptide significantly improved the skin phenotype with less macrophage infiltration. Taken together, aberrant CAV-1 expression in monocytes may be involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of urticaria and angioedema induced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is still obscure. We analyzed the clinical characteristics of patients with NSAIDs-induced urticaria and angioedema without asthma in Japan. METHODS: We retrospectively collected the cases of NSAIDs-induced urticaria and angioedema from Japanese medical journals in 2000-2009. RESULTS: Seventy-six patients were analyzed. The male/female ratio was 1:2.5 and the mean age was 38.1 years. Urticaria was most frequent clinical manifestation in 3 groups; urticaria alone, urticaria and angioedema, and angioedema alone. Time interval from drug administration to onset was 5 minutes to 48 hours by aspirin at a dose of 25-1000 mg. Skin prick test was performed with aspirin in 33 patients, and the results were negative in all patients. Meloxicam, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, and celecoxib, a new selective COX-2 inhibitor, were administered safely in 4 of 6 patients and in 2 of 3 patients with NSAIDs-induced urticaria, respectively. These drugs were administered safely in all administered patients with NSAIDs-induced angioedema. Tiaramidehydrochroride (a basic COX-1 inhibitor) was safely used in 23 administered patients with NSAIDs-induced angioedema. Leukotriene receptor antagonists were effective in 2 of 5 patients administered, but aggravated symptoms in the others. CONCLUSION: Diversity of NSAIDs-induced urticaria and angioedema was shown in this study. Pathogenesis of NSAIDs-induced urticaria and angioedema without asthma seems to be different from that of NSAIDs-induced asthma.
