[PMID: 39097088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2024.07.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND With the gradual understanding of glioma development and the immune microenvironment, many immune cells have been discovered. Despite the growing comprehension of immune cell functions and the clinical application of immunotherapy, the precise roles and characteristics of immune cell subtypes, how glioma induces subtype transformation of immune cells and its impact on glioma progression have yet to be understood. AIM OF THE REVIEW In this review, we comprehensively center on the four major immune cells within the glioma microenvironment, particularly neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), and other significant immune cells. We discuss (1) immune cell subtype markers, (2) glioma-induced immune cell subtype transformation, (3) the mechanisms of each subtype influencing chemotherapy resistance, (4) therapies targeting immune cells, and (5) immune cell-associated single-cell sequencing. Eventually, we identified the characteristics of immune cell subtypes in glioma, comprehensively summarized the exact mechanism of glioma-induced immune cell subtype transformation, and concluded the progress of single-cell sequencing in exploring immune cell subtypes in glioma. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW In conclusion, we have analyzed the mechanism of chemotherapy resistance detailly, and have discovered prospective immunotherapy targets, excavating the potential of novel immunotherapies approach that synergistically combines radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery, thereby paving the way for improved immunotherapeutic strategies against glioma and enhanced patient outcomes.

Functional link between sarcoidosis-associated gene variants and quantitative levels of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cell types. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1061654. [PMID: 36824606 PMCID: PMC9941743 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1061654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease that affects multiple organs. Cell analysis from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) is a valuable tool in the diagnostic workup and differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis. Besides the expansion of lymphocyte expression-specific receptor segments (Vα2.3 and Vβ22) in some patients with certain HLA types, the relation between sarcoidosis susceptibility and BAL cell populations' quantitative levels is not well-understood. Methods Quantitative levels defined by cell concentrations of BAL cells and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were evaluated together with genetic variants associated with sarcoidosis in 692 patients with extensive clinical data. Genetic variants associated with clinical phenotypes, Löfgren's syndrome (LS) and non-Löfgren's syndrome (non-LS), were examined separately. An association test via linear regression using an additive model adjusted for sex, age, and correlated cell type was applied. To infer the biological function of genetic associations, enrichment analysis of expression quantitative trait (eQTLs) across publicly available eQTL databases was conducted. Results Multiple genetic variants associated with sarcoidosis were significantly associated with quantitative levels of BAL cells. Specifically, LS genetic variants, mainly from the HLA locus, were associated with quantitative levels of BAL macrophages, lymphocytes, CD3+ cells, CD4+ cells, CD8+ cells, CD4+/CD8+ ratio, neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils. Non-LS genetic variants were associated with quantitative levels of BAL macrophages, CD8+ cells, basophils, and eosinophils. eQTL enrichment revealed an influence of sarcoidosis-associated SNPs and regulation of gene expression in the lung, blood, and immune cells. Conclusion Genetic variants associated with sarcoidosis are likely to modulate quantitative levels of BAL cell types and may regulate gene expression in immune cell populations. Thus, the role of sarcoidosis-associated gene-variants may be to influence cellular phenotypes underlying the disease immunopathology.

Abstract
Background Dysfunction of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) promotes inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and associated colorectal cancer (CRC). AKR1B8 deficiency impairs the IEC barrier function, leading to susceptibility to chronic colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS), yet it remains unclear how acute colitic response is in AKR1B8 deficient mice. Methods AKR1B8 knockout (KO) and littermate wild type mice were exposed to oral 1.5% DSS in drinking water for 6 days. Disease activity index and histopathological inflammation scores by H&E staining were calculated for colitic severity; permeability was assessed by fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran (FITC-Dextran) probes and bacterial invasion and transmission were detected by in situ hybridization in mucosa or by culture in blood agar plates. Immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometry were applied for immune cell quantification. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and target gene expression was analyzed by Western blotting and qRT-PCR. Results AKR1B8 KO mice developed severe acute colitis at a low dose (1.5%) of DSS in drinking water compared to wild type controls. In AKR1B8 KO mice, FITC-dextran was penetrated easily and luminal bacteria invaded to the surface of IEC layer on day 3, and excessive bacteria translocated into the colonic mucosa, mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) and liver on day 6, which was much mild in wild type mice. Hyper-infiltration of neutrophils and basophils occurred in AKR1B8 KO mice, and monocytes in spleen and macrophages in colonic mucosa increased markedly compared to wild type mice. TLR4 signaling in colonic epithelial cells of AKR1B8 KO mice was activated to promote great IL-1β and IL-6 expression compared to wild type mice. Conclusions AKR1B8 deficiency in IECs drives severe acute colitis induced by DSS at a low dose through activation of the innate immunity, being a novel pathogenic factor of colitis.

Abstract
Basophils are the least abundant circulating leukocytes, and their immunological role has not yet been completely elucidated. There is evidence supporting their immunomodulatory role in several pathological settings; recently, studies in both experimental models and humans suggested that basophil homeostasis may be altered in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Here, we first assessed circulating basophils in children affected with pediatric SLE (pSLE). In this cross-sectional study, circulating basophils were enumerated by fluorescence-based flow cytometry analysis in children affected with pSLE, in addition to children suffering from juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) or non-inflammatory/non-rheumatic conditions. This study included 52 pediatric patients distributed in these three groups. We observed a statistically significant reduction of peripherally circulating basophils in children with pSLE compared to the other two groups of patients. This preliminary study is consistent with the available studies in adult patients with SLE showing a reduced number of circulating basophils. However, further research is needed to draw final conclusions on basophils' homeostasis in pSLE, in addition to their correlation with the disease activity and concomitant therapies.

Abstract
Basophils are the rarest granulocytes and have long been overlooked in immunological research due to their rarity and similarities with tissue-resident mast cells. In the last two decades, non-redundant functions of basophils have been clarified or implicated in a broad spectrum of immune responses, particularly by virtue of the development of novel analytical tools for basophils. Basophils infiltrate inflamed tissues of patients with various disorders, even though they circulate in the bloodstream under homeostatic conditions. Depletion of basophils results in the amelioration or exaggeration of inflammation, depending on models of disease, indicating basophils can play either beneficial or deleterious roles in a context-dependent manner. In this review, we summarize the recent findings of basophil pathophysiology under various conditions in mice and humans, including allergy, autoimmunity, tumors, tissue repair, fibrosis, and COVID-19. Further mechanistic studies on basophil biology could lead to the identification of novel biomarkers or therapeutic targets in a broad range of diseases.

Abstract
Basophils, the rarest granulocyte, play critical roles in parasite- and allergen-induced inflammation. We applied mass cytometry (CyTOF) to simultaneously asses 44 proteins to phenotype and functionally characterize neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils from 19 healthy donors. There was minimal heterogeneity seen in eosinophils and neutrophils, but data-driven analyses revealed four unique subpopulations within phenotypically basophilic granulocytes (PBG; CD45+HLA-DR-CD123+). Through CyTOF and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), we classified these four PBG subpopulations as (I) CD16lowFcεRIhighCD244high (88.5 ± 1.2%), (II) CD16highFcεRIhighCD244high (9.1 ± 0.4%), (III) CD16lowFcεRIlowCD244low (2.3 ± 1.3), and (IV) CD16highFcεRIlowCD244low (0.4 ± 0.1%). Prospective isolation confirmed basophilic-morphology of PBG I-III, but neutrophilic-morphology of PBG IV. Functional interrogation via IgE-crosslinking or IL-3 stimulation demonstrated that PBG I-II had significant increases in CD203c expression, whereas PBG III-IV remained unchanged compared with media-alone conditions. Thus, PBG III-IV could serve roles in non-IgE-mediated immunity. Our findings offer new perspectives in human basophil heterogeneity and the varying functional potential of these new subsets in health and disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The innate immune response (IIR) has to be immediate facing pathogens, and effective to induce a long-lasting adaptive immunity and immune memory. In genetically susceptible individuals, beyond a first defense, a chronically activated by infections IIR may represent a trigger for the onset or flares in systemic autoimmune diseases. This article reviews the recent scientific literature in this regard and highlights the key issues needing investigation. RECENT FINDINGS Thanks to its high specificity mediated by pattern recognition receptors, the IIR is not called unspecific anymore. The discovery of these increasingly accurate recognizing molecular mechanisms has also evidenced their involvement in breaking self-immune tolerance and to maintain chronic inflammation in autoimmune responses. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETS) as the main source of antinuclear antibodies; the 'neutrophils-pDC activation loop' theory; and the Th1/Th2/Th17 misbalances induced by microbial products because of chronically activated innate immune cells, are some of the recent uncovered IIR origins involved in infectious-induced systemic autoimmune diseases. SUMMARY A deeper understanding of the genetic predisposition and the pathogen-derived factors responsible to exacerbate the IIR might potentially provide therapeutic targets to counteract flares in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Basophils are rare granulocytes and dysregulated functions of these cells are associated with several atopic and non-atopic allergic diseases of skin, respiratory system and gastrointestinal tract. Both cytokines and immunoglobulin E (IgE) are implicated in mediating the basophil activation and pathogenesis of these disorders. Several reports have shown that healthy individuals, and patients with allergic disorders display IgG autoantibodies to IgE and hence functional characterization of these anti-IgE IgG autoantibodies is critical. In general, anti-IgE IgG autoantibodies modulate basophil activation irrespective of allergen specificity by interacting with constant domains of IgE. Therefore, an ideal solution to prove the functions of such anti-IgE IgG autoantibodies would be to completely eliminate type I high affinity immunoglobulin E receptor (FcɛRI)-bound IgE from the surface of basophils and to demonstrate in an unequivocal manner the role of anti-IgE IgG autoantibodies. In line with previous reports, our data show that FcɛRI on peripheral blood basophils are almost saturated with IgE. Further, acetic acid buffer (pH 4) efficiently removes these FcɛRI-bound IgE. Although immediately following acetic acid-elution of IgE had no repercussion on the viability of basophils, following 24 h culture with interleukin-3 (IL-3), the viability and yield of basophils were drastically reduced in acid-treated cells and had repercussion on the induction of activation markers. Lactic acid treatment on the other hand though had no adverse effects on the viability of basophils and IL-3-induced activation, it removed only a small fraction of the cell surface bound IgE. Thus, our results show that acid buffers could be used for the elution of FcɛRI-bound IgE on the basophil surface for the biochemical characterization of IgE antibodies or for the immediate use of basophils to determine their sensitivity to undergo degranulation by specific allergens. However, these methods are not utile for the functional assays of basophils that require longer duration of culture and entire removal of surface IgE to validate the role of anti-IgE IgG autoantibodies that interact with FcɛRI-bound IgE irrespective of allergen specificity.

[PMID: 31697750 PMCID: PMC6837487 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0224707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder that is associated with lupus nephritis, initiated by the deposition of immune complexes in the kidney; subsequently, this induces the overexpression of cytokines. Lupus nephritis is known as one of the major clinical manifestations that affect the disease severity in SLE patients. An increased number of resident periglomerular and immune cells in the kidney has the potential to affect the equilibrium of different immune cell subsets, such as Th1, Th2, Th17, and Tregs, which may be central to the induction of tissue damage in kidney by exerting either proinflammatory or anti-inflammatory effects, or both. This equilibrium has yet to be confirmed, as new players such as IL-25 remain undiscovered. IL-25 is a cytokine of the IL-17 family, which stimulates Th2-mediated immune response when overly expressed. Thus, the aim of this research is to determine the plasma levels of IL-25 and Th2-associated cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-13) in SLE patients with (SLE-LN) and without lupus nephritis. Sixty-four (n = 64) SLE patients and fifteen (n = 15) healthy individuals were recruited. This study demonstrated that the IL-9, IL-10 and IL-25 had significantly increased expressions in SLE-LN, followed by SLE without LN, compared to healthy controls. Meanwhile, IL-5 and IL-6 had significantly reduced. No significant difference was observed with IL-13, while the level of IL-4 was undetectable. Furthermore, IL-9 and IL-10 were significantly correlated with the IL-25, and IL-25, IL-9 and IL-10 were positively correlated with the disease severity score, SLEDAI. In conclusion, IL-25 and its associated Th2 cytokines (IL-9 and IL-10) may be involved in SLE pathogenesis. These cytokines could be potential biomarkers in monitoring and predicting the disease severity during SLE pathogenesis.

Sharma M, Das M, Stephen-Victor E, Galeotti C, Karnam A, Maddur MS, Bruneval P, Kaveri SV, Bayry J. Regulatory T cells induce activation rather than suppression of human basophils. Sci Immunol 2019; 3:3/23/eaan0829. [PMID: 29802207 DOI: 10.1126/sciimmunol.aan0829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2017] [Revised: 11/29/2017] [Accepted: 03/29/2018] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Basophils are a rare granulocyte population that has been associated with allergic and inflammatory responses. It is essential to understand the regulatory mechanisms by which basophils are kept in check, considering the impact of dysregulated basophil function on immune responses under different pathological conditions. Among immunoregulatory cells, CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) are the key players that maintain immune tolerance. The mechanisms by which Tregs regulate and suppress diverse immune cell subsets have been studied extensively, but the impact of Tregs on basophil functions is not well understood. We report that human basophils are refractory to Treg-mediated suppression and found that Tregs stimulate resting basophils to induce the expression of activation markers including CD69, CD203c, and CD13 and the release of basophil cytokines including IL-13, IL-8, and IL-4. Mechanistically, Tregs could induce human basophil activation via IL-3 and STAT5 activation, whereas cellular contact was dispensable. Inhibition of either IL-3-IL-3 receptor interactions or STAT5 phosphorylation abrogated Treg-mediated activation of basophils. These results provide evidence of direct positive effects that human Tregs have on basophil activation and reveal a previously unrecognized feature of this cell subset well known for immunosuppressive functions.

Intravenous immunoglobulin induces IL-4 in human basophils by signaling through surface-bound IgE. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2018; 144:524-535.e8. [PMID: 30529242 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaci.2018.10.064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2018] [Revised: 10/01/2018] [Accepted: 10/24/2018] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic normal IgG or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) exerts anti-inflammatory effects through several mutually nonexclusive mechanisms. Recent data in mouse models of autoimmune disease suggest that IVIG induces IL-4 in basophils by enhancing IL-33 in SIGN-related 1-positive innate cells. However, translational insight on these data is lacking. OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the effect of IVIG on human basophil functions. METHODS Isolated circulating basophils from healthy donors were cultured in the presence of IL-3, IL-33, GM-CSF, thymic stromal lymphopoietin, or IL-25. The effect of IVIG and F(ab')2 and Fc IVIG fragments was examined based on expression of various surface molecules, phosphorylation of spleen tyrosine kinase, induction of cytokines, and histamine release. Basophil phenotypes were also analyzed from IVIG-treated patients with myopathy. Approaches, such as depletion of anti-IgE reactivity from IVIG, blocking antibodies, or inhibitors, were used to investigate the mechanisms. RESULTS We report that IVIG directly induces activation of IL-3-primed human basophils, but IL-33 and other cytokines were dispensable for this effect. Activation of basophils by IVIG led to enhanced expression of CD69 and secretion of IL-4, IL-6, and IL-8. IVIG-treated patients with myopathy displayed enhanced expression of CD69 on basophils. The spleen tyrosine kinase pathway is implicated in these functions of IVIG and were mediated by F(ab')2 fragments. Mechanistically, IVIG induced IL-4 in human basophils by interacting with basophil surface-bound IgE but independent of FcγRII, type II Fc receptors, C-type lectin receptors, and sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins. CONCLUSION These results uncovered a pathway of promoting the TH2 response by IVIG through direct interaction of IgG with human basophils.

A functional SNP MCP-1 (-2518A/G) predispose to renal disorder in Indian Systemic Lupus Erythematosus patients. Cytokine 2017; 96:189-194.

Abstract
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a clinically heterogeneous chronic, inflammatory autoimmune disorder that affects multiple organs where exact etiology of the disease is not yet clearly understood. Various evidences suggest that genetic polymorphisms in inflammatory mediators like cytokines and chemokines may influence development of the disease. Here, we investigated whether functional polymorphism at the Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) regulatory region associates with disease phenotype in Indian SLE patients. This case control study included 200 SLE patients and 201 ethnically matched healthy controls. Genotyping of MCP-1 (-2518 A/G) polymorphism was performed using PCR-RFLP method. Serum MCP-1 levels were detected by bead-based multiplex immunoassay. Serum MCP-1 levels were found to be higher in patients compared with healthy individuals (p<0.0001). A significant difference for MCP-1G allele frequency (OR=1.9, 95%CI=1.4-2.6, p<0.0001) was observed among SLE patients against healthy individuals. A significant difference in the distribution of MCP-1 -2518GG (OR=3.0, 95%CI=1.4-6.7, p=0.0041) and AG+GG genotypes (OR=2.0, 95%CI=1.4-3.0, p=0.0005) was also noted among SLE patients when compared with healthy individuals. A significant association was observed between A/G and G/G versus A/A genotypes with renal manifestations (p<0.0001, Pc<0.001). Serum MCP-1 levels in active LN patients were found to be significantly higher than inactive LN (p=0.0059), mild LN (p=0.0061) as well as non-LN patients (p=0.0001). These findings suggest that -2518G allele of MCP-1 -2518 A/G polymorphism is associated with renal disorders and may influence MCP-1 gene expression among Indian SLE patients.

DEPTOR-mTOR Signaling Is Critical for Lipid Metabolism and Inflammation Homeostasis of Lymphocytes in Human PBMC Culture. J Immunol Res 2017; 2017:5252840.

Abstract
Abnormal immune response of the body against substances and tissues causes autoimmune diseases, such as polymyositis, dermatomyositis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Irregular lipid metabolism and inflammation may be a significant cause of autoimmune diseases. Although much progress has been made, mechanisms of initiation and proceeding of metabolic and inflammatory regulation in autoimmune disease have not been well-defined. And novel markers for the detection and therapy of autoimmune disease are urgent. mTOR signaling is a central regulator of extracellular metabolic and inflammatory processes, while DEP domain-containing mTOR-interacting protein (DEPTOR) is a natural inhibitor of mTOR. Here, we report that overexpression of DEPTOR reduces mTORC1 activity in lymphocytes of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Combination of DEPTOR overexpression and mTORC2/AKT inhibitors effectively inhibits lipogenesis and inflammation in lymphocytes of PBMC culture. Moreover, DEPTOR knockdown activates mTORC1 and increases lipogenesis and inflammations. Our findings provide a deep insight into the relationship between lipid metabolism and inflammations via DEPTOR-mTOR pathway and imply that DEPTOR-mTOR in lymphocytes of PBMC culture has the potential to be as biomarkers for the detection and therapies of autoimmune diseases.

Identification of Palmitoleic Acid Controlled by mTOR Signaling as a Biomarker of Polymyositis. J Immunol Res 2017; 2017:3262384.

Abstract
Polymyositis (PM) is a chronic disease characterized by muscle pain, weakness, and increase in muscle-related enzymes, accompanied with inflammations in lymphocytes. However, it is not well understood how the molecular alternations in lymphocytes contribute to the development of polymyositis. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling is the central regulator of metabolism and inflammation in mammalian cells. Based on previous studies, we proposed that mTOR signaling may control inflammatory reactions via lipid metabolism. In this study, we aim to figure out the role of mTOR signaling in the development of polymyositis and identify novel biomarkers for the detection and therapy of polymyositis. After screening and validation, we found that palmitoleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid, is highly regulated by mTOR signaling. Inhibition of mTORC1 activity decreases palmitoleic acid level. Moreover, mTORC1 regulates the level of palmitoleic acid by controlling its de novo synthesis. Importantly, increased palmitoleic acid has been proven to be a marker of polymyositis. Our work identifies palmitoleic acid in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) as a biomarker of polymyositis and offers new targets to the clinical therapy.

Abstract
The respiratory immune response consists of multiple tiers of cellular responses that are engaged in a sequential manner in order to control infections. The stepwise engagement of effector functions with progressively increasing host fitness costs limits tissue damage. In addition, specific mechanisms are in place to promote disease tolerance in response to respiratory infections. Environmental factors, obesity and the ageing process can alter the efficiency and regulation of this tiered response, increasing pathology and mortality as a result. In this Review, we describe the cell types that coordinate pathogen clearance and tissue repair through the serial secretion of cytokines, and discuss how the environment and comorbidity influence this response.

Abstract
IL-4 and IL-13 are pleiotropic Th2 cytokines produced by a wide variety of different cell types and responsible for a broad range of biology and functions. Physiologically, Th2 cytokines are known to mediate host defense against parasites but they can also trigger disease if their activities are dysregulated. In this review we discuss the rationale for targeting the IL-4/IL-13 axes in asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, COPD, cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune disease and fibrotic disease as well as evaluating the associated clinical data derived from blocking IL-4, IL-13 or IL-4 and IL-13 together.

Abstract
To review the reported evidence on the therapeutic management of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) in clinical practice.A systematic search of the literature was conducted. The primary outcome measured was the rate of efficacy of first-line therapeutic approaches. Secondary outcomes measured included the rate of disease relapse, the outcome of untreated patients, the rate of patients without drug therapy at the end of follow-up, the rate of side effects, and mortality. The MOOSE, AHRQ, STROBE, and GRACE recommendations/statements were followed.The results of the systematic search strategy yielded 62 studies that included a total of 3034 patients. Complete information about first-line therapeutic regimens was detailed in 1952 patients, including glucocorticoid-based regimens in 1437 (74%), drug-free regimens in 213 (11%), and other therapies in 38 (2%). No therapy (wait and see management) was reported in 264 (13%) patients. The efficacy of monotherapy with glucocorticoids was specified in 1220 patients, of whom 97% had a therapeutic response. Relapses, however, were reported in 464/1395 (33%) patients despite typically short follow-up periods. Therapeutic efficacy was reported in 219/231 (95%) of relapses treated with glucocorticoids, 56/69 (81%) of those treated with azathioprine, 16/22 (72%) of those treated with other immunosuppressive agents, and in the 9 cases treated with rituximab (100%). In 14 studies, the authors detailed the outcome of 159/246 patients with wait-and-see management; spontaneous improvement or resolution was reported in 68 (43%) cases. Wide heterogeneity was observed with respect to the first-line therapeutic approaches used for the different organ-specific disease subsets, including significant differences in the mean dose of glucocorticoids used.Nearly 70% of reported IgG4-RD patients are treated with oral glucocorticoids in monotherapy. However, the therapeutic management is heavily influenced by geographical, epidemiological, and clinical factors, especially with respect to the predominant organ affected. The frequency of glucocorticoid failure to induce sustained remissions both during and after treatment and the assessment of glucocorticoid toxicity in IgG4-RD require further study.
