Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare ulcerative neutrophilic dermatosis that can be associated with primary immunodeficiency. The pathogenesis of PG has not yet been elucidated, although contributions from dysregulation of the immune system in patients with apparent genetic predispositions have been postulated. We conducted a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA)-guided systematic review with the objective of identifying inborn errors of immunity in the presence of PG as well as their clinical characteristics of severity including number of PG lesions and anatomic areas affected, and treatment outcomes. METHODS A literature search was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science through August 24, 2023, for studies published in English using the search terms: "pyoderma gangrenosum," "inborn error of immunity," "immune defect*," and a list of genetic mutations potentially associated with PG. RESULTS Seventy-four cases of PG associated with inborn errors of immunity were identified. The results demonstrate an association of PG with a variety of inborn errors of immunity, including genetic mutations not classically associated with the condition. Genetic mutations such as BTK, IL1RN, ITGB2, LPIN2, MEFV, NFkB1, NLRP3, NLRP12, NOD2, PSMB8, PLCG2, PSTPIP1, RAG1, TTC37, and WDR1, as well as complement component 2/complement component 4 (C2/C4) and complement component 7 (C7) deficiencies were identified in the presence of either idiopathic or syndromic PG. Of note, mutations in genes such as PSMB8, NLRP3, and IL1RN were found to be associated with a more severe and atypical course of PG, whereas mutations in RAG1 as well as those causing a C2/C4 deficiency were associated with the mildest clinical presentations of PG. Mutations in NFkB1, ITGB2, and PSTPIP1 were associated with the most heterogeneous clinical presentations. CONCLUSIONS Human inborn errors of immunity may be implicated in the genetic predisposition to PG and may influence the clinical presentation. Due to the rarity of these diseases, further work must be done to describe the association between inborn errors of immunity and PG. Identifying inborn errors of immunity that may contribute to the development of PG may assist in further elucidating the mechanism of PG, guiding targeted treatment, and improving clinical outcomes for these patients.

Abstract
The activation of the pyrin inflammasome represents a highly intriguing mechanism employed by the innate immune system to effectively counteract pathogenic agents. Despite its key role in innate immunity, pyrin has also garnered significant attention due to its association with a range of autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) including familial Mediterranean fever caused by disruption of the MEFV gene, or in other genes involved in its complex regulation mechanisms. Pyrin activation is strictly dependent on homeostasis-altering molecular processes, mostly consisting of the disruption of the small Ras Homolog Family Member A (RhoA) GTPases by pathogen toxins. The downstream pathways are regulated by the phosphorylation of specific pyrin residues by the kinases PKN1/2 and the binding of the chaperone 14-3-3. Furthermore, a key role in pyrin activation is played by the cytoskeleton and gasdermin D, which is responsible for membrane pores in the context of pyroptosis. In addition, recent evidence has highlighted the role of steroid hormone catabolites and alarmins S100A8/A9 and S100A12 in pyrin-dependent inflammation. The aim of this article is to offer a comprehensive overview of the most recent evidence on the pyrin inflammasome and its molecular pathways to better understand the pathogenesis behind the significant group of pyrin-related AIDs.

Genes (Basel) 2023; 14:1655. [PMID: 37628706 PMCID: PMC10454568 DOI: 10.3390/genes14081655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
PSTPIP1 (proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interactive protein 1)-associated myeloid-related proteinemia inflammatory (PAMI) syndrome, previously known as Hyperzincemia/Hypercalprotectinemia (Hz/Hc) syndrome, is a recently described, rare auto-inflammatory disorder caused by specific deleterious variants in the PSTPIP1 gene (p.E250K and p.E257K). The disease is characterized by chronic systemic inflammation, cutaneous and osteoarticular manifestations, hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, and neutropenia. Increased blood levels of MRP 8/14 and zinc distinguish this condition from other PSTPIP1-associated inflammatory diseases (PAID). The aim of this systematic review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the disease phenotype, course, treatment, and outcome based on reported cases. This systematic review adheres to the PRISMA guidelines (2020) for reporting. A literature search was performed in Embase, Medline, and Web of Science on 13 October 2022. The quality of the case reports and case series was assessed using the JBI checklists. Out of the 43 included patients with PAMI syndrome, there were 24 females and 19 males. The median age at onset was 3.9 years. The main clinical manifestations included anemia (100%), neutropenia (98%), cutaneous manifestations (74%), osteoarticular manifestations (72%), splenomegaly (70%), growth failure (57%), fever (51%), hepatomegaly (56%), and lymphadenopathy (39%). Systemic inflammation was described in all patients. Marked elevation of zinc and MRP 8/14 blood levels were observed in all tested patients. Response to treatment varied and no consistently effective therapy was identified. The most common therapeutic options were corticosteroids (N = 30), anakinra (N = 13), cyclosporine A (N = 11), canakinumab (N = 6), and anti-TNF (N = 14). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been recently reported to be successful in five patients. Our review highlights the key characteristics of PAMI syndrome and the importance of considering this disease in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with early-onset systemic inflammation and cytopenia.

Abstract
A body of evidence has re-energized the interest on the role neutrophils in inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. For decades, neutrophils have been considered a homogenous population. Nevertheless, accumulating evidence suggests that neutrophils are more versatile and heterogeneous than initially considered. The notion of neutrophil heterogeneity has been supported by the identification of low-density granulocytes (LDGs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other systemic autoimmune and autoinflammatory conditions. Transcriptomic, epigenetic, proteomic, and functional analyses support that LDGs are a distinct subset of proinflammatory neutrophils implicated in the pathogenesis of SLE and other autoimmune diseases. Importantly, it remains incompletely characterized whether LDGs detected in other inflammatory/autoimmune conditions display the same phenotype that those present in SLE. A shared feature of LDGs across diseases is their association with vascular damage, an important contributor to morbidity and mortality in chronic inflammatory conditions. Additionally, the lack of specific markers to identify LDGs in circulation or in tissue, makes it a challenge to elucidate their role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. In this review, we aim to examine the evidence on the biology and the putative pathogenic role of LDGs in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We report a three-year-old girl with a potentially unique phenotype of perinatal onset and neurovascular features who was found to have PAMI syndrome. We also compare her case to those previously reported and review the differences between the PSTPIP1-associated inflammatory diseases (PAID) phenotypes and genotypes. CASE PRESENTATION The patient was found to have a heterozygous pathogenic variant in PSTPIP1 (c.748G > A p.E250K). This variant was shown to be absent in both parents and therefore de novo in the patient. A literature review was carried out through multiple databases using the terms PSTPIP1, PAID, PAPA syndrome and PAMI syndrome. This information was collected and used to form comparisons between the current literature and our reported case. CONCLUSIONS Our case contributes to the literature on PAMI syndrome whilst providing an example of a potentially unique clinical phenotype, giving insight into the pre-symptomatic phase of the condition. We highlight the importance of considering PAMI syndrome in the differential for early onset unexplained inflammation. In addition, we explore the possibility that perinatal neurovascular events could be an early feature of PAMI syndrome.

Abstract
The emerging group of autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) is caused by a dysregulation of the innate immune system while lacking the typical footprint of adaptive immunity. A prominent subgroup of AIDs are inflammasomopathies, which are characterised by periodic flares of cutaneous signs as well as systemic organ involvement and fever. The range of possible skin lesions is vast, ranging from urticarial, erysipelas-like and pustular rashes to erythematous patches, violaceous plaques and eventual necrosis and ulceration. This review provides a structured overview of the pathogenesis and the clinical picture with a focus on dermatological aspects of inflammasomopathies. Current treatment options for these conditions are also discussed.

Abstract
Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne (PAPA) syndrome, and the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1)-associated myeloid-related proteinemia inflammatory (PAMI) syndrome are two distinct clinical conditions caused by heterozygous mutations of the PSTPIP1 gene. While skin and joint involvements are shared by both conditions, PAMI is characterized by hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia, and growth failure. Kidney involvement is exceptional in PSTPIP1-mediated disorders. The two missense PSTPIP1 variants associated with PAMI syndrome are p.E250K and p.E257K. Long-term treatment with interleukin (IL)-1 inhibitors is effective to control inflammatory manifestations and is usually well-tolerated. We report a case of a patient carrying the PSTPIP1 p.E250K mutation who developed a late-onset kidney involvement despite a long treatment with canakinumab and anakinra. Kidney biopsy showed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis that was treated with tacrolimus (0.1 mg/kg/day in two doses). A literature revision with the aim to assess the proportion and type of kidney involvement in PAMI syndrome revealed that heterogeneous nephropathies may be part of the clinical spectrum. Our study supports the importance of a periodic diagnostic work-up, including kidney laboratory tests and kidney biopsy, in individuals affected with PAMI syndrome. Kidney and liver functions may be impaired regardless of anti-cytokines treatments and additional therapy approaches (i.e., multi-drugs, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) should be carefully considered.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to describe the characteristics of patients diagnosed with pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) syndrome at a single center in China and provide an up-to-date literature review. Methods The clinical data and genotype of three Chinese Han patients were carefully documented and studied. We also conducted a systematic literature review on PAPA syndrome. Results A total of three patients were diagnosed with PAPA syndrome at our center from 2018 to 2020. Arthritis was observed in all three patients, while pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) was found in two patients and acne in one patient. Other manifestations included pathergy reaction, intermittent fever, oral ulcer, keratitis, proteinuria, and hematuria. The PSTPIP1 A230T mutation was identified in two patients, and a novel Y119C variation was revealed in a sporadic patient. A total of 76 patients with PAPA syndrome reported in 29 articles were included in our literature review. The classical triad of arthritis, PG, and acne was visible in only 16 (25.4%) patients, while 24 (38.1%) exhibited only one major symptom. Skin lesions were more commonly seen in patients with adult-onset disease than those with childhood-onset disease (100 vs. 83%), whereas arthritis was less common (50 vs. 98.1%). Steroid and/or biological agents were effective in most patients. Conclusions The rarity and phenotypic heterogeneity associated with PAPA syndrome make the diagnosis a huge challenge to physicians, especially in adult patients. A significant portion of patients did not exhibit the full spectrum of the classical triad. Accordingly, gene testing is critically helpful for diagnosis.

Abstract
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases are a heterogeneous family of disorders characterized by a dysregulation of the innate immune system, in which sterile inflammation primarily develops through antigen-independent hyperactivation of immune pathways. In most cases, they have a strong genetic background, with mutations in single genes involved in inflammation. Therefore, they can derive from different pathogenic mechanisms at any level, such as dysregulated inflammasome-mediated production of cytokines, intracellular stress, defective regulatory pathways, altered protein folding, enhanced NF-kappaB signalling, ubiquitination disorders, interferon pathway upregulation and complement activation. Since the discover of pathogenic mutations of the pyrin-encoding gene MEFV in Familial Mediterranean Fever, more than 50 monogenic autoinflammatory diseases have been discovered thanks to the advances in genetic sequencing: the advent of new genetic analysis techniques and the discovery of genes involved in autoinflammatory diseases have allowed a better understanding of the underlying innate immunologic pathways and pathogenetic mechanisms, thus opening new perspectives in targeted therapies. Moreover, this field of research has become of great interest, since more than a hundred clinical trials for autoinflammatory diseases are currently active or recently concluded, allowing us to hope for considerable acquisitions for the next few years. General paediatricians need to be aware of the importance of this group of diseases and they should consider autoinflammatory diseases in patients with clinical hallmarks, in order to guide further examinations and refer the patient to a specialist rheumatologist. Here we resume the pathogenesis, clinical aspects and diagnosis of the most important autoinflammatory diseases in children.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is tightly controlled by osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and osteoblast-mediated bone formation. Fine tuning of the osteoclast-osteoblast balance results in strict synchronization of bone resorption and formation, which maintains structural integrity and bone tissue homeostasis; in contrast, dysregulated bone remodeling may cause pathological osteolysis, in which inflammation plays a vital role in promoting bone destruction. The alveolar bone presents high turnover rate, complex associations with the tooth and periodontium, and susceptibility to oral pathogenic insults and mechanical stress, which enhance its complexity in host defense and bone remodeling. Alveolar bone loss is also involved in systemic bone destruction and is affected by medication or systemic pathological factors. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the osteoimmunological mechanisms involved in the dysregulation of alveolar bone remodeling. The inflammasome is a supramolecular protein complex assembled in response to pattern recognition receptors and damage-associated molecular patterns, leading to the maturation and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of inflammatory responses. Pyroptosis downstream of inflammasome activation also facilitates the clearance of intracellular pathogens and irritants. However, inadequate or excessive activity of the inflammasome may allow for persistent infection and infection spreading or uncontrolled destruction of the alveolar bone, as commonly observed in periodontitis, periapical periodontitis, peri-implantitis, orthodontic tooth movement, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, nonsterile or sterile osteomyelitis of the jaw, and osteoporosis. In this review, we present a framework for understanding the role and mechanism of canonical and noncanonical inflammasomes in the pathogenesis and development of etiologically diverse diseases associated with alveolar bone loss. Inappropriate inflammasome activation may drive alveolar osteolysis by regulating cellular players, including osteoclasts, osteoblasts, osteocytes, periodontal ligament cells, macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, and adaptive immune cells, such as T helper 17 cells, causing increased osteoclast activity, decreased osteoblast activity, and enhanced periodontium inflammation by creating a pro-inflammatory milieu in a context- and cell type-dependent manner. We also discuss promising therapeutic strategies targeting inappropriate inflammasome activity in the treatment of alveolar bone loss. Novel strategies for inhibiting inflammasome signaling may facilitate the development of versatile drugs that carefully balance the beneficial contributions of inflammasomes to host defense.

Abstract
PSTPIP1-associated myeloid-related proteinaemia inflammatory (PAMI) syndrome has been described as a rare and distinct clinical phenotype of PSTPIP1-associated inflammatory diseases. We report PSTPIP1 mutation in both father and son who have leukopenia and acne-like lesions. Through whole-exome sequencing on blood DNA, it is found a heterozygous mutation of PSTPIP1 gene c.748G>A on the father and son. The diagnosis of PAMI is made based on DNA sequencing results and clinical characteristics of typical lesions, leukopenia, and the markedly increased serum S100A8/A9 (calprotectin).

Abstract
In the last decade, new scientific findings significantly improved our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of autoinflammation and have resulted in the identification and definition of several pyoderma gangrenosum-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PGAAIS) as new and distinct clinical entities. These different clinical entities include PAPA (pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne conglobata), PASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne and suppurative hidradenitis), PAPASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne, suppurative hidradenitis and pyogenic arthritis), PsAPASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne, suppurative hidradenitis and psoriatic arthritis), PASS (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne conglobata, suppurative hidradenitis, and axial spondyloarthritis) and PAC (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne and ulcerative colitis), which can be distinguished by their clinical presentation and the presence or absence of mutations in several genes, such as the genes encoding proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1), nicastrin (NCSTN), Mediterranean fever (MEFV) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein (NOD). In this systematic review, we summarize the present knowledge of this rapidly developing hot topic and provide a guide to enable the easy diagnosis of these syndromes in everyday clinical practice. Moreover, we report a rare case of PASS syndrome demonstrating successful treatment with adalimumab and another case of a previously unreported combination of symptoms, including psoriatic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, suppurative hidradenitis and Crohn’s disease (newly coined PsAPSC), as examples. Because of the identification of similar genetic and pathogenic mechanisms of PGAAIS, we think the wide variety of seemingly different syndromes may represent distinct phenotypes of one disease. New scientific findings improved the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of autoinflammation. There is a similar genetic background and clinical findings of PGAAIS. Because of the similar genetic and pathogenic mechanisms of PGAAIS may represent distinct phenotypes of one disease. We present a 4-sep guide to enable the easy diagnosis of theses disease in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acne is a common condition. Sometimes acne or acne-like features are a part of autoinflammatory diseases such as PAPA spectrum disorders. Our objective wasto determine whether acne in PAPA spectrum disorders has specific phenotypic traits. SUMMARY This is aliterature review on reported cases of patients with PAPA, PAMI, PASH, PAPASH, PsAPASH, PAC or PASS syndrome. Acne was classified into four categories: moderate, severe, nodulocystic, acne fulminans.One hundred patients were included. Age of onset of acne and topography were the same as in acne vulgaris. Acne's phenotype was at least severe (including acne fulminans, nodulocystic and severe) in 83% of cases. Genetic mutations or variants with potential pathological significance were reported in 49 patients. The addition of isotretinoin to biotherapies was required to control acne in several patients.

Abstract
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs) are defined as disorders of innate immunity. They were initially defined in opposition to autoimmune diseases due to the lack of involvement of the adaptive immune system and circulating autoantibodies. The four historical monogenic diseases are familial Mediterranean fever (associated with MEFV mutations), cryopyrinopathies (NLRP3 mutations), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TNFRSF1A mutations), and mevalonate kinase deficiency (MVK mutations). In the last 10 years, more than 50 new monogenic SAIDs have been discovered thanks to advances in genetics. Diagnosis is largely based on personal and family history and detailed analysis of signs and symptoms associated with febrile attacks, in the setting of elevated inflammatory markers. Increasingly efficient techniques of genetic analysis can contribute to refining the diagnosis. This review is a guide for the clinician in suspecting and establishing a diagnosis of SAID.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PAPA syndrome, an acronym for pyogenic sterile arthritis, pyoderma gangraenosum and acne, is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease which is caused by a mutation in the PSTPIP1 ("proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 1") gene located on chromosome 15 and encodes the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1. An association with Crohn's disease (CD), autoimmune diseases of the liver and PAPA syndrome has not yet been reported in the literature. OBJECTIVE To thoroughly investigate a family with three affected members (mother and 2 children) with newly diagnosed PAPA syndrome and intestinal and hepatobiliary symptoms. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed an in-depth phenotyping, dermatologic, radiologic, rheumatologic, gastroenterologic, histologic and genetic analysis in this family. RESULTS All three family members could be newly diagnosed as suffering from PAPA syndrome and carried the known disease-causing mutation c.688G > A (p.Ala230Thr) in the PSTPIP1 gene. The younger son suffered from CD in addition to PAPA syndrome. The mother additionally suffered from ulcerative colitis (UC) and an overlap syndrome between autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). A mutation in in the NOD2 ("nucleotide binding oligomerization domain containing protein 2") gene could not be detected in any of the three persons affected. CONCLUSION We extended the symptoms of PAPA syndrome to CD and autoimmune liver disease. These different disease entities might share a similar pathogenetic mechanism or even represent a new syndrome. This can be clarified in the future by screening patients with PAPA syndrome for intestinal and also hepatobiliary diseases.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare ulcerative skin disease that presents a therapeutic challenge. Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) inhibitors have been reported to successfully control PG. Our aim was to systematically evaluate and compare the clinical effectiveness of TNFα inhibitors in adults with PG. A literature search including databases such as PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted, using search terms related to PG and TNFα inhibitors. Studies and case reports were included if patients were diagnosed with PG, over the age of 18 and administered TNFα inhibitor. A total of 3212 unique citations were identified resulting in 222 articles describing 356 patients being included in our study. The study we report found an 87% (95% CI: 83%-90%) response rate and a 67% (95% CI: 62%-72%) complete response rate to TNFα inhibitors. No statistically significant differences in the response rates (P = 0.6159) or complete response rates (P = 0.0773) to infliximab, adalimumab, and etanercept were found. In our study TNFα inhibitors demonstrated significant effectiveness with response and complete response rates supporting the use of TNFα inhibitors to treat PG in adults. Our study suggests that there is no significant difference in effectiveness among infliximab, adalimumab, and etanercept.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases are characterized by innate immunity abnormalities. In autoinflammatory diseases (AID), inflammatory blood biomarkers are elevated during crisis without infection and usually without autoantibodies. The first 4 described AID were familial Mediterranean fever, cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) or NLRP3-associated autoinflammatory disease (NRLP3-AID), mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) and TNFRSF1A-receptor associated periodic fever syndrome (TRAPS). Since their description 20 years ago, and with the progresses of genetic analysis, many new diseases have been discovered; some with recurrent fever, others with predominant cutaneous symptoms or even immune deficiency. After describing the 4 historical recurrent fevers, some polygenic inflammatory diseases will also be shortly described such as Still disease and periodic fever with adenitis, pharyngitis and aphtous (PFAPA) syndrome. To better explore AID, some key anamnesis features are crucial such as the family tree, the age at onset, crisis length and organs involved in the clinical symptoms. An acute phase response is mandatory in crisis.

Abstract
Monogenic auto-inflammatory diseases are characterized by genetic abnormalities coding for proteins involved in innate immunity. They were initially described in mirror with auto-immune diseases because of the absence of circulating autoantibodies. Their main feature is the presence of peripheral blood inflammation in crisis without infection. The best-known auto-inflammatory diseases are mediated by interleukines that consisted in the 4 following diseases familial Mediterranean fever, cryopyrinopathies, TNFRSF1A-related intermittent fever, and mevalonate kinase deficiency. Since 10 years, many other diseases have been discovered, especially thanks to the progress in genetics. In this review, we propose the actual panorama of the main known auto-inflammatory diseases. Some of them are recurrent fevers with crisis and remission; some others evaluate more chronically; some are associated with immunodeficiency. From a physiopathological point of view, we can separate diseases mediated by interleukine-1 and diseases mediated by interferon. Then some polygenic inflammatory diseases will be shortly described: Still disease, Schnitzler syndrome, aseptic abscesses syndrome. The diagnosis of auto-inflammatory disease is largely based on anamnesis, the presence of peripheral inflammation during attacks and genetic analysis, which are more and more performant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1) is a cytosolic adaptor protein involved with T-cell activation, differentiation, and migration. On cognate T-cell contact, PSTPIP1 is recruited to surface-expressed CD2, where it regulates F-actin remodeling. An immune synapse (IS) is thereby rapidly formed, consisting of T-cell receptor clusters surrounded by a ring of adhesion molecules, including CD2. OBJECTIVE From genetic screening of patients with primary immunodeficiencies, we identified 2 mutations in PSTPIP1, R228C and T274M, which we further characterized in the primary patients' T cells. METHODS F-actin dynamics were assessed in primary T cells from the patients and control subjects by using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. HEK293T and Jurkat cells were transfected with R228C, T274M, and wild-type PSTPIP1 to visualize F-actin in IS formation. CD2-PSTPIP1 association was quantified through immunoprecipitation assays. RESULTS The patients presented with immunodeficiency without signs of autoinflammation. The patient with the R228C mutation had expansion of mostly naive phenotype T cells and few memory T cells; the patient with the T274M mutation had 75% reduction in CD4 T cells that were predominantly of the memory subset. We observed F-actin polymerization defects in T cells from both patients with PSTPIP1, most notably the patient with the T274M mutation. Capping of CD2-containing membrane microdomains was disrupted. Analysis of IS formation using Jurkat T-cell transfectants revealed a reduction in F-actin accumulation at the IS, again especially in cells from the patient with the T274M PSTPIP1 mutation. T cells from the patient with the T274M mutation migrated spontaneously at increased speed, as assessed in a 3-dimensional collagen matrix, whereas T-cell receptor cross-linking induced a significantly diminished calcium flux. CONCLUSIONS We propose that PSTPIP1 T-cell differentiation defects are caused by defective control of F-actin polymerization. A preactivated polymerized F-actin status, as seen in T cells from patients with the PSTPIP1 T274M mutation, appears particularly damaging. PSTPIP1 controls IS formation and cell adhesion through its function as an orchestrator of the F-actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Acne vulgaris is a ubiquitary skin disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the pilosebaceous unit resulting from bacterial colonization of hair follicles by Propionibacterium acnes, androgen-induced increased sebum production, altered keratinization and inflammation. Here, we review our current understanding of the genetic architecture of this intriguing disease. We analysed genomewide association studies (GWAS) and candidate genes studies for acne vulgaris. Moreover, we included GWAS studies for the associated disease polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Overall, the available data revealed sixteen genetic loci flagged by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), none of which has been confirmed yet by independent studies. Moreover, a GWAS for PCOS identified 21 susceptible loci. The genetic architecture is complex which has been revealed by GWAS. Further and larger studies in different populations are required to confirm or disprove results from candidate gene studies as well to identify signals that may overlap between different populations. Finally, studies on rare genetic variants in acne and associated diseases like PCOS may deepen our understanding of its pathogenesis.

Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease causing painful inflammation and suppuration. It may occur in rare syndromes: follicular occlusion, Bazex-Dupré-Christol, Down's, KID, PAPASH, PASS, PASH, and SAPHO syndromes, as well as Dowling-Degos disease. An overview of syndromic HS may inform the search for aetiological factors in HS. PubMed, Ovid and Web of Science were systematically searched using '(hidradenitis OR acne invers*) AND (syndrome OR KID OR PASS OR PAPA OR PASH OR SAPHO OR bazex-dupre OR 'dowling degos' OR triad OR tetrad)' and Cochrane Library using 'hidradenitis OR acne invers*'. A total of 82 articles were included in the final review. We summarize 134 cases collected from the 82 included articles. The syndromes are discussed, focusing on etiopathogenesis, clinical presentation and treatment. This study is based on case reports; therefore, conclusions may be subject to the selection bias. These syndromes are rare; however, it is important to recognize them, as treating them may require a different approach. Three subtypes of syndromic hidradenitis are suggested: syndromes with known genetic abnormalities, syndromes characterized by follicular plugging or structural defects, and syndromes with possible autoinflammatory pathogenesis. There was no universally effective treatment for syndromic HS, and treatment was individualized.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a neutrophilic dermatosis usually manifesting as skin ulcers with undermined erythematous-violaceous borders. It may be isolated, associated with systemic conditions or occurring in the context of autoinflammatory syndromes such as PAPA (pyogenic arthritis, PG and acne), PASH (PG, acne and suppurative hidradenitis) or PAPASH (pyogenic arthritis, acne, PG and suppurative hidradenitis). From a physiopathological point of view, all these conditions share common mechanisms consisting of over-activation of the innate immune system leading to increased production of the interleukin (IL)-1 family and 'sterile' neutrophil-rich cutaneous inflammation. From a genetic point of view, a number of mutations affecting the proteins of the inflammasome complex (the molecular platform responsible for triggering autoinflammation) or the proteins that regulate inflammasome function have been described in these disorders. As these debilitating entities are all associated with the over-expression of IL-1 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, biological drugs specifically targeting these cytokines are currently the most effective treatments but, given the emerging role of IL-17 in the pathogenesis of these syndromes, IL-17 antagonists may represent the future management of these conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To give an overview about the expanding spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases due to mutations in proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1) and new insights into their pathogenesis. RECENT FINDINGS In addition to classical pyogenic sterile arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) syndrome, PSTPIP1-associated myeloid-related proteinemia inflammatory (PAMI) syndrome has been described as a distinct clinical phenotype of PSTPIP1-associated inflammatory diseases (PAID) and other entities are emerging. In addition to dysregulation of IL-1ß release from activated PAPA monocytes that requires NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), PSTPIP1 mutations have an general impact on cellular dynamics of cells of the innate immune system. In addition, overwhelming expression and release of the alarmins myeloid-related protein (MRP) 8 and 14 by activated phagocytes and keratinocytes, which promote innate immune mechanisms in a Toll like receptor (TLR) 4-dependent manner, are a characteristic feature of these diseases and form a positive feed-back mechanism with IL-1ß. SUMMARY Autoinflammatory diseases due to PSTPIP1 mutations are not restricted to the classical PAPA phenotype but might present with other distinct clinical features. MRP8/14 serum levels are a hallmark of PAPA and PAMI and can be used as screening tool to initiate targeted genetic testing in suspected cases. The feedback mechanism of IL-1ß and MRP-alarmin release may offer novel targets for future therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, acne has been described as a symptom of autoinflammatory diseases, such as PASH (pyoderma gangrenosum - PG, acne and suppurative hidradenitis - SH) and PAPASH (PG, acne, pyogenic arthritis, and SH). The pathogenesis of autoinflammatory diseases is not fully understood; however, based on the possible involvement of IL-1β, the recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist anakinra has been used in the treatment of certain autoinflammatory diseases. METHODS We describe two patients with severe acne and associated symptoms which led to the diagnosis PAPASH and PASH syndrome and who were treated with anakinra. RESULTS In the patient with PASH syndrome, inhibition of inflammation and almost complete healing of ulcers was observed. In the patient with PAPASH syndrome, partial response was achieved. CONCLUSION The therapeutic effect of anakinra in PASH syndrome and partly in PAPASH syndrome indicates an involvement of IL-1β in acne-associated autoinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare inflammatory neutrophilic dermatosis manifesting as painful ulcers with violaceous, undermined borders on the lower extremities. It may occur in the context of classic syndromes like PAPA (pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne) and SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis), as well as in a recently described entity named PASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne and suppurative hidradenitis). Pyoderma gangrenosum has recently been included within the spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases, which are characterized by recurrent episodes of sterile inflammation, without circulating autoantibodies and autoreactive T cells. In PAPA syndrome, different mutations involving the PSTPIP1 gene, via an increased binding affinity to pyrin, induce the assembly of inflammasomes. These are molecular platforms involved in the activation of caspase 1, a protease that cleaves inactive prointerleukin (pro-IL)-1β to its active isoform IL-1β. The overproduction of IL-1β triggers the release of a number of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, which are responsible for the recruitment and activation of neutrophils, leading to neutrophil-mediated inflammation. In SAPHO syndrome, the activation of the PSTPIP2 inflammasome has been suggested to play a role in inducing the dysfunction of the innate immune system. Patients with PASH have recently been reported to present alterations of genes involved in well-known autoinflammatory diseases, such as PSTPIP1, MEFV, NOD2 and NLRP3. Pyoderma gangrenosum and its syndromic forms can be regarded as a single clinicopathological spectrum in the context of autoinflammation.

Abstract
Pyogenic Arthritis, Pyoderma gangrenosum, and Acne (PAPA syndrome) is a rare autosomal dominant, auto-inflammatory disease that affects joints and skin. The disease results due to mutations in the cluster of differentiation 2 binding protein 1 (CD2BP1) gene on chromosome 15q24.3. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common, genetically complex disease that affects the joints with occasional skin manifestations. Studies related to the pathophysiology of inflammation in these two disorders show a certain degree of overlap at genetic level. The present study was done to confirm the existence of such a genetic overlap between PAPA syndrome and RA in south Indian population. In the present study 100 patients who were clinically diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis and 100 apparently healthy controls were chosen and the 15 exons of CD2BP1 gene were PCR-amplified and sequenced. The sequence analysis showed that in exon 3 thirty eight patients revealed presence of novel heterozygous missense mutations p.Glu51Asp, p.Leu57Arg and p.Ala64Thr. In exons 6, 10 and 14 eight patients showed 44 novel missense mutations and two patients showed novel frame shift mutations p.(Met123_Leu416delinsThr) and p.(Thr337Profs*52) leading to truncated protein formation. Such mutations were not seen in controls. Further, the in silico analysis revealed the mutant CD2BP1 structure showed deletion of Cdc15 and SH3 domains when superimposed with the wild type CD2BP1 structure with variable RMSD values. Therefore, these structural variations in CD2BP1 gene due to the mutations could be one of the strongest reasons to demonstrate the involvement of these gene variations in the patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
Neutrophils have traditionally been thought to play only a peripheral role in the genesis of many autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. However, recent studies in a variety of animal models suggest that these cells are central to the initiation and propagation of autoimmunity. The use of mouse models, which allow either deletion of neutrophils or the targeting of specific neutrophil functions, has revealed the many complex ways these cells contribute to autoimmune/inflammatory processes. This includes generation of self antigens through the process of NETosis, regulation of T-cell and dendritic cell activation, production of cytokines such as BAFF that stimulate self-reactive B-cells, as well as indirect effects on epithelial cell stability. In comparing the many different autoimmune models in which neutrophils have been examined, a number of common underlying themes emerge - such as a role for neutrophils in stimulating vascular permeability in arthritis, encephalitis and colitis. The use of animal models has also stimulated the development of new therapeutics that target neutrophil functions, such as NETosis, that may prove beneficial in human disease. This review will summarize neutrophil contributions in a number of murine autoimmune/inflammatory disease models.
