Abstract
Objective SAPHO (Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis and Osteitis) syndrome is a heterogeneous disease that clinically manifests as chronic inflammatory osteoarticular and dermatological lesions. Few reports have described familial clustering of SAPHO syndrome cases. This research aimed to illustrate the family aggregation of SAPHO syndrome and investigate the prevalence of autoimmune disorders among SAPHO syndrome patients and first-degree relatives in a large cohort. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 233 SAPHO patients diagnosed at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Direct phone calls were made to each first-degree relatives. All relatives of the patients who reported SAPHO syndrome were asked for a detailed outpatient evaluation. Results A total of 233 patients and 1227 first-degree relatives were recruited. Six (2.6 %) patients had positive SAPHO family history, including four mother-daughter pairs and two sister pairs. Twenty-one (9.0 %) patients presented at least one kind of autoimmune disease, including 12 rheumatoid arthritis and 4 ulcerative colitis cases. Fifty-eight (24.9 %) SAPHO syndrome patients had 68 (5.5 %) first-degree relatives with at least one autoimmune disorder. The palmoplantar pustulosis, psoriasis vulgaris, and rheumatoid arthritis prevalence in our subjects were each higher than reference rates. Conclusion This is the first evaluation of familial aggregation for SAPHO syndrome in a large cohort. SAPHO syndrome has a weak familial aggregation. There is a relatively high prevalence of coexisting autoimmune disease among patients with SAPHO syndrome and their first-degree relatives. These results would prompt physicians to screen SAPHO syndrome patients and their family members for concomitant autoimmune diseases. Keypoints This study suggesting a potential genetic component in the pathogenesis of SAPHO syndrome. This study is the first to evaluate the family aggregation of SAPHO syndrome in a large cohort.

Demirci Yildirim T, Sari İ. SAPHO syndrome: current clinical, diagnostic and treatment approaches. Rheumatol Int 2023:10.1007/s00296-023-05491-3.

Abstract
This review provides an overview of SAPHO (Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis, and Osteitis), a rare autoinflammatory disease that primarily affects bones, skin, and joints. We conducted a search on Medline/PubMed using keywords such as SAPHO syndrome, chronic recurrent multifocal osteitis/osteomyelitis, and related terms. SAPHO syndrome is rare, with a reported frequency of 1 in 10,000 in the Caucasian population. However, the actual incidence of SAPHO syndrome is unknown, and the incidence of the disease is likely higher. The pathogenesis of SAPHO syndrome remains incompletely understood. Current evidence suggests that SAPHO results from a complex interplay between immune dysregulation, genetic susceptibility, and environmental factors. It's not clear if SAPHO syndrome is an autoimmune disease or an autoinflammatory disease, but current evidence suggests that it's more likely an autoinflammatory disease because of things like neutrophil hyperactivity, fewer natural killer (NK) cells, high levels of interleukin (IL)-1, and a good response to treatments that block IL-1. Osteo-articular (OA) involvement is a key clinical feature of SAPHO. It affects the anterior chest wall, axial skeleton, peripheral joints, mandible, long bones of the extremities, and pelvis. Dermatological involvement is a common target in SAPHO, with lesions observed in 60-90% of cases. Common skin lesions include psoriasis and acne, with hidradenitis suppurativa and neutrophilic dermatoses being less commonly seen. Other clinical findings include constitutional symptoms caused by systemic inflammation, such as fever, weight loss, and fatigue. There is no specific laboratory finding for SAPHO syndrome. However, during active disease, there may be an increase in positive acute phase markers, such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), complement levels, mild leukocytosis, and thrombocytosis. Diagnosis is crucial for SAPHO syndrome, which lacks a specific diagnostic finding and is often underrecognized. A comprehensive evaluation of a patient's medical history and physical examination is crucial. Treatment options include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, conventional and synthetic disease-modifying agents (cDMARDs and sDMARDs), biological therapies, bisphosphonates, and antibiotics. Biological treatments have emerged as a viable alternative for SAPHO patients who do not respond to conventional treatments.

Allergol Immunopathol (Madr) 2023; 51:23-28. [PMID: 37695226 DOI: 10.15586/aei.v51i5.939] [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: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the common adverse reactions in patients with pressure ulcers (PU) is sepsis, which is mainly related to microbial infections caused by pathogenic organisms. The activation of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) frequently occurs in conjunction with pathogenic microbial infections. Proline-serine-threonine-phosphatase-interacting protein 2 (PSTPIP2) is closely related to inflammatory disorders. The role and mechanism of PSTPIP2 in sepsis because of pressure ulcers is unclear. In this study, we discovered that PSTPIP2 was lowly expressed in peripheral blood of patients with sepsis induced by pressure ulcers. METHODS Peripheral blood was collected from 20 patients with sepsis due to pressure ulcers and 10 healthy controls, and the expression of PSTPIP2 in peripheral blood was discovered by polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis. Information on the clinical characteristics of patients was summarized, and the expression data of PSTPIP2 were correlated with the patients' acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) scores by Spearman's correlation analysis. One of the main mediators of Gram-negative sepsis is lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In order to establish an in vitro sepsis model, THP-1 cells were treated with LPS, and the cells were transfected with PSTPIP2. Contents of interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in each group of cells were detected by enzyme-linked--immunosorbent serologic assay, and NF-κB-related proteins were detected by Western blot analysis. RESULTS When compared to healthy controls, the peripheral blood of patients with pressure sepsis had lower PSTPIP2 expression, which had a negative correlation with the APACHE II, SOFA, CRP, and PCT scores. LPS-induced THP-1 cells expressed less PSTPIP2 than the untreated control cells, and PSTPIP2 transfection decreased IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels and inhibited the activation of NF-κB pathway. CONCLUSION PSTPIP2 is associated with disease severity in patients with pressure ulcer sepsis and has anti-inflammatory effects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an autoinflammatory bone disease that most commonly affects children and adolescents causing significant pain and damage to bones. The absence of diagnostic criteria and biomarkers, an incomplete understanding of the molecular pathophysiology, and lack of evidence from randomized and controlled trials make the diagnosis and care challenging. AREAS COVERED This review provides an overview of the clinical and epidemiological features of CNO and displays diagnostic challenges and how they can be addressed following strategies used internationally and by the authors. It summarizes the molecular pathophysiology, including pathological activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1 secretion, and how these observations can inform future treatment strategies. Finally, it provides a summary of ongoing initiatives aiming at classification criteria (ACR/EULAR) and outcome measures (OMERACT) that will enable the generation of evidence through clinical trials. EXPERT OPINION Scientific efforts have linked molecular mechanisms to cytokine dysregulation in CNO, thereby delivering arguments for cytokine blocking strategies. Recent and ongoing collaborative international efforts are providing the basis to move toward clinical trials and target directed treatments for CNO that find approval by regulatory agencies.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) arise from disturbances that alter interactions of immune cells and tissues. They give rise to prominent (auto)inflammation in the absence of aberrant autoantibodies and/or autoreactive T cells. AIDs that are predominantly caused by changes in the inflammasome pathways, such as the NLRP3- or pyrin-associated inflammasome, have gained substantial attention over the last years. However, AIDs resulting primarily from other changes in the defense system of the innate immune system are less well-studied. These noninflammasome-mediated AIDs relate to, for example, disturbance in the TNF or IFN signaling pathways or aberrations in genes affecting the IL-1RA. The spectrum of clinical signs and symptoms of these conditions is vast. Thus, recognizing early cutaneous signs constitutes an important step in differential diagnoses for dermatologists and other physicians. This review provides an overview of the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and available treatment options highlighting dermatologic aspects of noninflammasome-mediated AIDs.

Abstract
SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis) syndrome is a rare disease clinically characterized by a wide range of cutaneous and osteoarticular manifestations. Here, we report a case of SAPHO syndrome with cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) and investigated the genetic causes in the four members of this pedigree. After failure of conventional treatments, a recombinant human TNF-α receptor II:IgG Fc fusion protein (rhTNFR:Fc, YISAIPU®) achieved good control of the disease at the 2-year follow-up. We did not identify any pathogenic mutation in this pedigree. We also summarized the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of 83 patients with SAPHO syndrome through the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CKNI) database from 2016 to 2021. Patients with acne were young and predominantly male. About 45.8% patients were treated with biological therapies or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), 84.2% of which showed positive effects against cutaneous and osteoarticular manifestations. We report a case of SAPHO syndrome with CVG that was successfully treated with rhTNFR:Fc. Our results reveal the genetic heterogeneity involved. Biologics and TCM are likely alternative options for the treatment of SAPHO syndrome.

Abstract
Proline-serine-threonine-phosphatase-interacting protein 2 (PSTPIP2) belongs to the Fes/CIP4 homology-Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (F-BAR) domain family. It exhibits lipid-binding, membrane deformation, and F-actin binding activity, suggesting broader roles at the membrane–cytoskeleton interface. PSTPIP2 is known to participate in macrophage activation, neutrophil migration, cytokine production, and osteoclast differentiation. In recent years, it has been observed to play important roles in innate immune diseases and autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs). Current research indicates that the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP-PEST, Src homology domain-containing inositol 5’-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1), and C‐terminal Src kinase (CSK) can bind to PSTPIP2 and inhibit the development of AIDs. However, the mechanisms underlying the function of PSTPIP2 have not been fully elucidated. This article reviews the research progress and mechanisms of PSTPIP2 in AIDs. PSTPIP2 also provides a new therapeutic target for the treatment of AIDs.

Abstract
Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is known as a rare disease characterized by inflammatory lesions on bones and skin. Polymorphism of clinical manifestation and lack of molecular biomarkers have both limited its diagnosis. Our study performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and integrative bioinformatics analysis of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)-messenger RNA (mRNA) profile in patients with SAPHO syndrome and healthy controls. A total of 4,419 differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs and 2,713 lncRNAs were identified (p < 0.05, fold change > 2) and a coexpression network was constructed to further investigate their regulatory interactions. The DE lncRNAs were predicted to interact with mRNAs in both cis and trans manners. Functional prediction found that the lncRNA-targeted genes may function in SAPHO syndrome by participating in biological process such as adipocytokine signaling pathway, ErbB signaling pathway, FoxO signaling pathway, as well as production and function of miRNAs. The expression levels of three pairs of coexpressed lncRNA-mRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR, and their relative expression levels were consistent with the RNA-seq data. The deregulated RNAs GAS7 and lnc-CLLU1.1-1:2 may serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers, and the combined receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the two showed more reliable diagnostic ability with an AUC value of 0.871 in distinguishing SAPHO patients from healthy controls. In conclusion, this study provides a first insight into long noncoding RNA transcriptome profile changes associated with SAPHO syndrome and inspiration for further investigation on clinical biomarkers and molecular regulators of this inadequately understood clinical entity.

Abstract
Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an inflammatory bone disorder that most frequently affects children and adolescents. Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a severe form of CNO, usually characterized by symmetrical inflammatory bone lesions and its waxing and waning character. Sometimes severe and chronic pain can significantly affect the quality of life and psychosocial development of individuals affected. In the absence of prospectively tested and widely accepted diagnostic criteria or disease biomarkers, CNO remains a diagnosis of exclusion, and infections, malignancy and other differentials require consideration (1). The pathophysiology of CNO is not fully understood, but imbalanced cytokine expression and increased inflammasome activation in monocytes from CNO patients contribute to a pro-inflammatory phenotype that contributes to bone inflammation (2). Currently, no medications are licensed for the use in CNO. Most patients show at least some response to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, others require more aggressive treatment that can include corticosteroids, cytokine-blocking agents and/or bisphosphonates (3). While under the care of an experienced team and sufficient treatment, the prognosis is good, but some patients will develop sequalae which can include vertebral compression fractures (1). CNO is an autoinflammatory bone disorder mostly affecting children and adolescents. Dysregulated cytokine expression and pathological activation of inflammasomes play a central role. Treatment is based on experience from case series and expert consensus treatment plans. Understanding the exact molecular pathophysiology will allow patient stratification and individualized treatment.

Majeed Syndrome: A Review of the Clinical, Genetic and Immunologic Features. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11030367.

Abstract
Majeed syndrome is a multi-system inflammatory disorder affecting humans that presents with chronic multifocal osteomyelitis, congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, with or without a neutrophilic dermatosis. The disease is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in LPIN2, the gene encoding the phosphatidic acid phosphatase LIPIN2. It is exceedingly rare. There are only 24 individuals from 10 families with genetically confirmed Majeed syndrome reported in the literature. The early descriptions of Majeed syndrome reported severely affected children with recurrent fevers, severe multifocal osteomyelitis, failure to thrive, and marked elevations of blood inflammatory markers. As more affected families have been identified, it has become clear that there is significant phenotypic variability. Data supports that disruption of the phosphatidic acid phosphatase activity in LIPIN2 results in immune dysregulation due to aberrant activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines including IL-1β, however, these findings did not explain the bone phenotype. Recent studies demonstrate that LPIN2 deficiency drives pro-inflammatory M2-macrophages and enhances osteoclastogenesis which suggest a critical role of lipin-2 in controlling homeostasis at the growth plate in an inflammasome-independent manner. While there are no approved medications for Majeed syndrome, pharmacologic blockade of the interleukin-1 pathway has been associated with rapid clinical improvement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis) syndrome is a type of rare chronic aseptic inflammation of unknown etiology. To date, no research to our knowledge has reported copy number variation (CNV) of genes that could affect predisposition to SAPHO syndrome. We investigated the association between CNV profile and SAPHO syndrome. METHODS We used array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to screen for CNV in a nuclear family including 2 patients and a healthy control. We then validated the copy numbers of candidate genes found in the array CGH assay and other candidate genes by TaqMan real-time PCR in 360 case and control samples. RESULTS Ten regions from 8 chromosomes were found to have abnormal gene copies in the nuclear family, so the CNV of candidate genes (ADAM5, CSF2RA, IL3RA, and 9 other genes) were tested by TaqMan PCR. Significant copy number loss of CSF2RA (p = 0.000) and NOD2 (p = 0.005), and significant copy number gain of MEGF6 (p = 0.002) and ADAM5 (p = 0.000) were seen in patients with SAPHO compared with controls at the a = 0.05 level. There were no differences in the other 8 candidate genes between patient and control samples (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Our study established the first association between CNV in CSF2RA, NOD2, MEGF6, and ADAM5 and SAPHO syndrome. These findings may offer insight into the pathogenesis of SAPHO and provide the basis for improved diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Exosome proteomic analysis may reveal differentially abundant proteins that are of significance for clarifying the pathogenesis of SAPHO (Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis and Osteitis) syndrome. Exosomes were isolated from the serum, bone marrow and skin tissue of the palm and toe pustular areas in a unique patient with SAPHO syndrome. The exosomes were not different from those of healthy subjects in size (114.1 ± 73.7 nm) or morphology. Label-free exosome proteomic analysis identified 198 more abundant proteins and 183 less abundant compared with those of healthy subjects. Gene ontology enrichment analysis revealed that these proteins were involved in binding with a variety of biological molecules and participated in biological processes related to autoimmunity or inflammation. A total of 243 KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genomes) pathways were enriched, of which 43 were related to immune function. It was speculated that five differentially abundant proteins, Mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1/MK01), Tyrosine protein kinase (SYK), Integrin beta-3 (ITB3), Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2a catalytic subunit alpha isoform (PP2AA) and Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2a 65 kDa regulatory subunit A beta isoform (2AAB), associated with multiple KEGG pathways, forms an interaction network that may be involved in the occurrence, development and prognosis of SAPHO syndrome. SIGNIFICANCE: Exosomes of SAPHO syndrome patient were not significantly different from those of healthy subjects in size and morphology. Label-free proteomic analysis of exosomal proteins in patient with SAPHO syndrome speculated 5 proteins MAPK1, SYK, ITB3, PP2AA and 2AAB, which may be involved in the occurrence, development and prognosis of SAPHO syndrome by binding with other biological molecules. It is speculated for the first time that proteins Histone H2A type 1-J and Histone H4 were related to SAPHO syndrome. Clinic relevance. Exosome proteomics can suggest novel pathological data in patients with SAPHO.

Abstract
Background SAPHO syndrome is a rare disease characterized by inflammatory lesions on skin and bones. Diversified manifestation and inadequate understanding of etiology has limited its diagnosis and treatment. The co-occurrence of other immune-mediated diseases strongly suggests an involvement of autoimmunity in SAPHO syndrome. However, the role of the largest population of circulating immune cells, neutrophils, is still not well explored. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing to profile the mRNA expression of neutrophils purified from peripheral blood of SAPHO patients to identify key genes associated with SAPHO syndrome, trying to find new functional molecules or biomarkers for this rare disease. Results A total of 442 differentially expressed genes were identified (p < 0.05, fold change > 2), in which 294 genes were upregulated and 148 genes were downregulated. Five differentially expressed genes of interest were verified by quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR), among which S100A12 was upregulated and positively related to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), while the downregulated gene MYADM was positively related to osteocalcin. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that differentially expressed genes were enriched in “systemic lupus erythematosus” and “ECM-receptor interaction”. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment showed that differentially expressed genes may participate in biological processes such as “cell migration” and “cell adhesion”. Conclusions In conclusion, this study provides a first insight into transcriptome characteristics of SAPHO syndrome, indicating an over-active neutrophil recruitment in patients and possibly suggesting molecular candidates for further study on diagnosis and pathology of this disease.

Abstract
Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is one of the most severe form of chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO), which could result in bone and related tissue damage. This autoinflammatory bone disorder (ABD) is very difficult for its clinical diagnosis because of no diagnostic criteria or biomarkers. CRMO in the jaw must be suspected in the differential diagnosis of chronic and recurrent bone pain in the jaw, and a bone biopsy should be considered in chronic and relapsing bone pain with swelling that is unresponsive to treatment. The early diagnosis of CRMO in the jaw will prevent unnecessary and prolonged antibiotic usage or unnecessary surgical intervention. The updated researches for the identification of genetic and molecular alterations in CNO/CRMO should be studied more for its correct pathophysiological causes and proper treatment guidelines. Although our trial consisted of reporting items from Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), there are very few articles of randomized controlled trials. This article was summarized based on the author's diverse clinical experiences. This paper reviews the clinical presentation of CNO/CRMO with its own pathogenesis, epidemiology, recent research studies, and general medications. Treatment and monitoring of the jaw are essential for the clear diagnosis and management of CNO/CRMO patients in the field of dentistry and maxillofacial surgery.

PSTPIP2 connects DNA methylation to macrophage polarization in CCL4-induced mouse model of hepatic fibrosis. Oncogene 2018; 37:6119-6135.

Abstract
Macrophages play a crucial role in the progression of hepatic fibrosis (HF). In macrophages, epigenetic mechanisms are increasingly being recognized as crucial controllers of their phenotype. However, the functions of macrophage DNA methylation in experimental models of hepatic fibrosis have not been fully addressed. Here, we analyzed isolated hepatic macrophages DNA methylation from CCL4-induced (4 weeks) mice using reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS). We identified and validated the methylation status of 26 gene promoter regions associated with CpG islands. We further investigated the function of PSTPIP2 in HF by hepatic-adeno-associated virus (AAV9)-PSTPIP2 overexpression. The molecular mechanisms underlying PSTPIPS2-regulated HF were further explored in mice and RAW264.7 cell line. RRBS results show hypermethylation of PSTPIP2 (chr18: 77,843,840-77,843,968) in the 5'-UTR region. PSTPIP2 expression was significantly decreased in isolated hepatic macrophages from CCL4-induced mice. PSTPIP2 hypermethylation is mediated by the methyltransferases DNMT3a and DNMT3b in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell line. Further investigation indicated that specific overexpression of PSTPIP2 in C57BL/6 mice reduced the inflammatory response and ameliorated liver fibrosis. These data indicated that hypermethylation of PSTPIP2 caused a mixed induction of hepatic classical macrophage (M1) and alternative macrophage (M2) biomarkers in CCL4-induced HF mice. Furthermore, overexpression of PSTPIP2 inhibited the expression of M1 markers by suppressing STAT1 activity, and enhanced the expression of M2 markers by promoting STAT6 activity. In contrast, knockdown of PSTPIP2 promoted M1 polarization and suppressed M2 polarization in vitro. Adding PSTPIP2 expression alleviates liver fibrosis and hepatic inflammation in mice by regulating macrophage polarization.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) with its most severe form chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an autoinflammatory bone disorder. We summarize the clinical presentation, diagnostic approaches, most recent advances in understanding the pathophysiology, and available treatment options and outcomes in CNO/CRMO. RECENT FINDINGS Though the exact molecular pathophysiology of CNO/CRMO remains somewhat elusive, it appears likely that variable defects in the TLR4/MAPK/inflammasome signaling cascade result in an imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine expressions in monocytes from CNO/CRMO patients. In this context, we present previously unpublished data on cytokine and chemokine expression in monocytes and tissues. CNO/CRMO is an autoinflammatory bone disorder resulting from imbalanced cytokine expression from innate immune cells. Though the exact molecular pathophysiology remains unclear, variable molecular defects appear to result in inflammasome activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression in monocytes from CNO/CRMO patients. Recent advances suggest signaling pathways and single molecules as biomarkers for CNO/CRMO as well as future treatment targets.

Abstract
A 57-year-old woman with SAPHO (synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis) syndrome presented with recurrent episodes of pneumonia. She was treated with multiple courses of antibiotics with no success. The transbronchial biopsy undertaken via bronchoscopy revealed organising pneumonia (OP). She was treated with steroids and responded well with full clinical recovery and normalisation of her chest X-ray.To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of OP in association with SAPHO syndrome. This case report highlights the importance of considering OP in patients with SAPHO syndrome who present with chest infection.

Abstract
Overt infection by Propionibacterium acnes is lacking in many SAPHO syndromes, and antibiotics have only a transient and incomplete effect, either in SAPHO syndrome or acne. As several auto-inflammatory bone disorders sharing overproduction of IL-1β can mimic SAPHO, this syndrome could partly depend on genetically encoded overproduction of IL-1β. However, cyclic intracellular infections, mostly by P. acnes, can contribute to the enhanced IL-1β release by some skin cells, and probably by bone cells. P. acnes is indeed a powerful trigger of NLRP3-inflammasome activation and IL-1β, leading to osteitis and enhanced mesenchymal cells differentiation in osteoblasts. Recent advances in the understanding of acne suggest that first steps of this disorder are not driven by P. acnes, but by a relative deficiency of FoxO1 within the nucleus of sebaceous cells. A similar defect of FoXO1 in bone cells should also be sought in SAPHO, since repression of FoxO1 gene is found in lesional psoriasis skin, and is associated with an increased number of osteoblasts and high bone mass in mice. FoxO1 selectively promotes IL-1β production, so that its downregulation could help some P. acnes t escape innate immunity and persist in a latent state in bone cells, including mesenchymal stem cells. However, P. acnes itself possibly contributes to FoxO1 downregulation, like H. pylori infection which induces nuclear inactivation of FoxO1 in human gastric cells to slow down autophagic clearance. As bisphosphonates, which often improve SAPHO syndromes, enhance autophagy, it may be worth testing whether their combination with antibiotics is synergistic in SAPHO syndromes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis (SCCH; ORPHA178311) is a rare inflammatory disorder of the axial skeleton, the precise pathophysiology of which remains to be established. We addressed the potential association of SCCH with autoimmune processes by evaluating the lifetime prevalence of autoimmune disease in 70 patients with adult-onset SCCH and 518 SCCH-unaffected first-degree relatives (parents, siblings and children). Danish hospital registry data for autoimmune diseases were used as reference data. RESULTS The mean age of interviewed patients was 56.3 years (range 26-80 years) and 86% were female. Interviewed patients belonged to 63 families, with four families having clusters of 2-3 patients. A diagnosis of at least one autoimmune disease was reported in 20 SCCH patients (29%) and in 47 relatives (9.1%), compared to an estimated 3.9% prevalence of autoimmune disease in the Danish reference population. A diversity of autoimmune diseases was reported in SCCH patients and relatives, most frequently psoriasis vulgaris (14%). Palmoplantar pustulosis was reported by 28 patients (40%). In SCCH patients, inclusion of palmoplantar pustulosis as putative autoimmune disease increased the overall prevalence to 54%. CONCLUSIONS The high prevalence of autoimmune disease in patients with sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis and their first-degree relatives suggests that autoimmunity may play a role in the still elusive pathophysiology of the intriguing osteogenic response to inflammation observed in this rare bone disorder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim was to assess the clinical, laboratory and radiological features of SAPHO syndrome. METHODS We recruited all patients presenting to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2004 to 2015 diagnosed with SAPHO syndrome. The medical data, laboratory test results and imaging were collected for all patients. RESULTS One hundred and sixty-four patients (111 women and 53 men) were recruited to our cohort. The mean age of the patients was 40.71 years. Nine patients had osteoarticular symptoms without skin involvement. One hundred and forty-three and 25 patients had palmoplantar pustulosis and severe acne, respectively. Psoriasis vulgaris was accompanied by palmoplantar pustulosis or severe acne in 24 patients. One hundred and sixty-four patients suffered from pain in the anterior chest wall, followed by spine (12 in the cervical region, 36 in the thoracic region and 111 in the lumbosacral region) and peripheral joint (136 patients) involvement. None of the patients had IBD. The hs-CRP level was increased in 70.8% patients. Only 2.4% were HLA-B27 positive. CT scan indicated osteolysis, sclerosis and hyperostosis in the anterior chest wall and spine in SAPHO syndrome patients. The bull-horn sign was the typical characteristic of SAPHO syndrome seen in bone scintigraphy images. One hundred and thirty-one (79.9%), 85 (51.8%), 100 (61%) and 54 (32.9%) patients took NSAIDs, CSs, DMARDs and oral bisphosphonates, respectively. CONCLUSION SAPHO syndrome is predominant in middle-age women, characterized by dermatological and osteoarticular manifestations with unknown aetiology. CT scan and bone scintigraphy are useful for diagnosis. There is still no standard treatment to control the disease.
