Abstract
OTULIN-related autoinflammatory syndrome (ORAS), a severe autoinflammatory disease, is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants of OTULIN, a linear ubiquitin-specific deubiquitinating enzyme. Loss of OTULIN attenuates linear ubiquitination by inhibiting the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC). Here, we report a patient who harbors two rare heterozygous variants of OTULIN (p.P152L and p.R306Q). We demonstrated accumulation of linear ubiquitin chains upon TNF stimulation and augmented TNF-induced cell death in mesenchymal stem cells differentiated from patient-derived iPS cells, which confirms that the patient has ORAS. However, although the de novo p.R306Q variant exhibits attenuated deubiquitination activity without reducing the amount of OTULIN, the deubiquitination activity of the p.P152L variant inherited from the mother was equivalent to that of the wild-type. Patient-derived MSCs in which the p.P152L variant was replaced with wild-type also exhibited augmented TNF-induced cell death and accumulation of linear chains. The finding that ORAS can be caused by a dominant-negative p.R306Q variant of OTULIN furthers our understanding of disease pathogenesis.

Disease phenotypes in adult patients with suspected undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases and PFAPA syndrome: Clinical and therapeutic implications. Autoimmun Rev 2024:103520. [PMID: 38561135 DOI: 10.1016/j.autrev.2024.103520] [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: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases are characterized by recurrent or persistent fever, usually combined with other inflammatory manifestations, and negative or inconclusive genetic studies for monogenic autoinflammatory disorders. AIMS To define and characterize disease phenotypes in adult patients diagnosed in an adult reference center with undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases, and to analyze the efficacy of the drugs used in order to provide practical diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations. METHODS Retrospective study (2015-2022) of patients with undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases among all patients visited in our reference center. Demographic, clinical, laboratory features and detailed therapeutic information was collected. RESULTS Of the 334 patients with a suspected autoinflammatory disease, 134 (40%) patients (61% women) were initially diagnosed with undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases. Mean age at disease onset and at diagnosis was 28.7 and 37.7 years, respectively. In 90 (67.2%) patients, symptoms started during adulthood. Forty-four (32.8%) patients met diagnostic/classification criteria for adult PFAPA syndrome. In the remaining patients, four additional phenotypes were differentiated according to the predominant manifestations: a) Predominantly fever phenotype (n = 18; 13.4%); b) Predominantly abdominal/pleuritic pain phenotype (n = 9; 6.7%); c) Predominantly pericarditis phenotype (n = 18; 13.4%), and d) Complex syndrome phenotype (n = 45; 33.6%). Prednisone (mainly on demand), colchicine and anakinra were the drugs commonly used. Overall, complete responses were achieved with prednisone in 41.3%, colchicine in 40.2%, and anakinra in 58.3% of patients in whom they were used. By phenotypes, prednisone on demand was more effective in adult PFAPA syndrome and colchicine in patients with the abdominal/pleuritic pain pattern and PFAPA syndrome. Patients with complex syndrome achieved complete responses with prednisone (21.9%), colchicine (25.7%) and anakinra (44.4%), and were the group more often requiring additional immunosuppressive drugs. CONCLUSIONS The analysis of the largest single-center series of adult patients with undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases identified and characterized different disease phenotypes and their therapeutic approaches. This study is expected to contribute to increase the awareness of physicians for an early identification of these conditions, and to provide the best known therapeutic options.

Abstract
Panniculitis was first described in the nineteenth century and is characterized by inflammation of the subcutaneous fat. It may be categorized in septal or lobular subtypes, but other histopathological features (e.g., presence of vasculitis, nature of inflammatory infiltrates, characteristics of fat necrosis) are also important for diagnostic purposes. Clinically, panniculitis is characterized by the presence of subcutaneous nodules, and both ulcerative and nonulcerative clinical subtypes have been proposed. In this review, we aimed to describe the occurrence of panniculitis in autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs) and related diseases. Among monogenic AIDs, panniculitis is common in IFN-mediated disorders. Panniculitis is a distinctive feature in proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PRAAS), including chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) syndrome and Nakajo-Nishimura syndrome. On the other hand, erythema nodosum corresponds to the most common clinical form of panniculitis and is common in polygenic AIDs, such as Behçet's syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and sarcoidosis. Cytophagic histiocytic panniculitis, lipoatrophic panniculitis of children, and otulipenia are rare disorders that may also present with inflammation of the subcutaneous fat. Therefore, panniculitis can identify a specific subgroup of patients with AIDs and may potentially be regarded as a cardinal sign of autoinflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients have a familial aggregation of the disease, and a few have been found to have a juvenile arthritis (JA) phenotype caused by a genetic mutation. JA due to LACC1 defects is a rare condition and it was never reported in China. METHODS The clinical and molecular characteristics of a child with LACC1 gene mutation-related juvenile arthritis, diagnosed by high-throughput sequencing in Wuhan children's Hospital in 2021 were analyzed retrospectively; The literature and database were reviewed to summarize the clinical data and genotype characteristics of patients with JA caused by LACC1 gene mutation. RESULTS Here, we report a 19-month-old Chinese male patient who presented with bilateral limb edema without a history of fever. Laboratory tests showed had moderate anemia and signs of inflammation: hemoglobin of 76 g/L, white blood cell count of 20.53 × 109 , and platelet count of 1194 × 109 ; MRI showed the patient had synovitis and tenosynovitis in bilateral hands and wrists. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) detected compound heterozygous variants, novel c.446_449dupTAAA and c.889T>C, in the LACC1 gene. Of the 52 patients reported in the literature (including this case), 38.9% had clinical symptoms of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), which tended to be caused by loss-of-function (LOF) mutation. Findings in this study expanded the spectrum of pathogenic variants and reveal the phenotypic heterogeneity of LACC1-JA. CONCLUSIONS Our study reported a rare case of juvenile arthritis, which is due to the compound heterozygous mutation of LACC1, including a new novel frameshift mutation c.446_449dupTAAA, and LACC1 C297R variant causes disease by potentially modifying the local conformation of proteins. The clinical and genetic findings in our study show that LACC1-JA is highly heterogeneous, and gene testing is required for juvenile arthritis patients with a high inflammatory response at a young onset age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs) are hyperinflammatory and immune-dysregulation conditions that present in childhood. This kind of disease is a rare disease with early-onset, severe condition and difficult diagnosis, which seriously affects the growth and development of children. Most children need a genetic diagnosis. However, with the limitation of access to genetic testing and the detection of somatic mutations, the diagnosis of SAIDs remains challenging. IL-1 is one of the important cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of SAIDs. Here we briefly review monogenic SAIDs mediated by aberrant IL-1 production, with the aim to further understand the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and treatments of IL-1 mediated SAIDs. METHODS Literature reviews were performed using "PubMed" and "Web of Science" by searching for the terms "autoinflammatory diseases" and "IL-1". RESULTS Monogenic SAIDs mediated by IL-1 include MKD, FMF, TRAPS, PAAND, PAPA, CAPS, DIRA, Majeed syndrome, NAIAD, NLRC4-MAS, PFIT, APLAID. Monogenic SAIDs have early onset, various clinical manifestations and difficult diagnosis, so early recognition and early treatment can reduce the complications and enhance the quality of life. CONCLUSIONS There are many kinds of IL-1 mediated SAIDs. Pediatricians should be alert to SAIDs in the face of the patients with repeated fever, repeated rash and poor effect of routine treatment. The patients should be carried out with gene testing and treatment in time.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is a rare chronic disease with marked clinical and radiological heterogeneity. It is characterized by a combination of dermatological and osteoarticular manifestations. The treatment of SAPHO syndrome is not yet codified. It includes several therapeutic options such as anti-inflammatory drugs, bisphosphonates, antibiotics, conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, and biological treatment.This article aims to provide an updated review of the different pharmacological options for SAPHO syndrome. We also propose a therapeutic algorithm for the management of this disease.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases (AID) are a heterogeneous group of inherited conditions caused by abnormal activation of systems mediating innate immunity. Recent literature focuses on A20 Haploinsufficiency, an autoinflammatory disease with a phenotype resembling Behçet disease (BD). It is caused by loss-of-function mutations in TNFAIP3 gene that result in the activation of a pro-inflammatory pathway. In this case report we describe a one-year-old baby who came to our attention for hematochezia appeared at three months of age which was considered an expression of early-onset colitis. The following appearance of cutaneous inflammation Behçet-like and the positive family history concurred with the diagnosis of an autoinflammatory disease. Extended genetic tests in the patient allowed to identify a heterozygous variant in TNFAIP3 [NM_006290.4:c.460G > T, p.(Glu154Ter)], not previously described and not present in the GnomAD database. As a consequence the diagnosis A20 Haploinsufficiency was established and the appropriate management was started. The same TNFAIP3 variant was also found in her father who had suffered from recurrent oral aphthosis, vitiligo and thyroiditis since childhood. In conclusion, we described a young patient with a novel heterozygous mutation in TNFAIP3 who developed BD-like symptoms. We proposed that loss-of-function variants in TNFAIP3 may be associated with a very early-onset intestinal BD phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 3 gene (TNFAIP3, also called A20) haploinsufficiency (HA20) leads to autoinflammation and autoimmunity. We have recently shown that a p.(Lys91*) mutation in A20 disrupts nuclear factor κB signaling, impairs protein-protein interactions of A20, and leads to inflammasome activation. METHODS We now describe the clinical presentations and drug responses in a family with HA20 p.(Lys91*) mutation, consistent with our previously reported diverse immunological and functional findings. RESULTS We report for the first time that inflammasome-mediated autoinflammatory lung reaction caused by HA20 can be treated with interleukin 1 antagonist anakinra. We also describe severe anemia related to HA20 successfully treated with mycophenolate. In addition, HA20 p.(Lys91*) was found to associate with autoimmune thyroid disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriasis, liver disease, and immunodeficiency presenting with specific antibody deficiency and genital papillomatosis. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that HA20 may lead to combination of inflammation, immunodeficiency, and autoimmunity. The condition may present with variable and unpredictable symptoms with atypical treatment responses.

Kobak S. The Perfect Storm: A Rheumatologist's Point of View on COVID-19 Infection. Curr Rheumatol Rev 2021; 17:141-152.

Abstract
The new coronavirus infection (Covid-19) is a pandemic that has affected the whole world and progresses with high morbidity and mortality. It has a high contagion rate and a course capable of rapid lung involvement with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and pulmonary insufficiency. A severe clinical picture develops as a result of a "perfect cytokine storm" which results from possible immunological mechanisms triggered by the viral infection. Immune system dysregulation and possible autoinflammatory and autoimmune mechanisms are responsible for a higher amount of cytokines release from immune cells. Although no clear treatment of Covid-19 infection has emerged yet, it is argued that some disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) may be effective in addition to anti-viral treatments. These drugs (anti-malarial drugs, colchicum dispert, biologics) have been well known to rheumatologists for years because they are used in the treatment of many inflammatory rheumatologic diseases. Another important issue is whether DMARDs, which can cause severe immunosuppression, pose a risk for Covid-19 infection and whether they have been discontinued beforehand. Although there are insufficient data on this subject, considering the risk of disease reactivation, patients may continue their DMARDs treatment under the supervision of a rheumatologist. In this article, the possible immunological mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Covid-19 infection and the efficacy and safety of various DMARDs used in the treatment are discussed from a rheumatologist's perspective in the light of recent literature data.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical and genetic characteristics of 3 children with Haploinsufficiency of A20 (HA20). METHODS The clinical and genetic testing data of 3 children with HA20 treated at Capital Institute of Pediatrics (CIP) between August 2016 and October 2019 were retrospectively analysed. RESULT Patient 1 presented with arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, patient 2 presented with axial spinal arthritis and lupus-like syndrome, and patient 3 presented with recurrent oral ulcers, gastrointestinal ulcers, and perianal abscesses. Regarding laboratory tests, patients were found to have elevated white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). The CRP and ESR was reported to be high in all the patients. The WBC was reported to be high in patient 1 and 3. Patient 2 was positive for antinuclear antibodies, anti-Sjögren's syndrome antigen A, dsDNA, rheumatoid factor and Coombs test. Genetic testing showed that all three patients had heterozygous mutation in TNFAIP3 gene. As for the treatment, patient 1 was treated with TNFα antagonist, patient 2 was treated with TNF α antagonist and sulfasalazine, and patient 3 was treated with corticosteroids and thalidomide. Patients 1 and 2 were followed for four and 3 months, respectively. There was an improvement in joint and gastrointestinal symptoms; inflammatory indices and rheumatoid factor (RF) were normal, and dsDNA and Coombs test became negative. Patient 3 was treated at another hospital and showed gradual improvement in oral ulcers and perianal abscesses. CONCLUSION HA20 is a single-gene auto-inflammatory disease caused by mutation in tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene. It may present as Behçet-like syndrome and resemble various other autoimmune diseases as well. Corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents are effective treatments, and cytokine antagonists can be used in refractory cases. Whole-exome genetic testing should be proactively performed for children with early-age onset or Behçet-like syndrome to achieve early diagnosis and accurate treatment.

Abstract
Neonatal causes of fever are a major source of concern for clinicians. If fever is combined with organ-specific sterile inflammatory manifestations the suspicion of autoinflammatory disorders should be considered, and the list of such conditions starting in the neonatal period includes chronic infantile neurological cutaneous articular syndrome, mevalonate kinase deficiency, deficiency of the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist, otulipenia, STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy and Blau syndrome. Other causes of noninfectious fever that can rarely occur in newborns are Kawasaki disease, Behçet's disease, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Diagnosis of these exceptionally rare disorders is challenging for neonatologists. An early recognition of these complex diseases might lead to use more specific or rational drugs preventing permanent consequences. This review focuses on the rarest causes of fever occurring in the neonatal age with the aim of portraying many protean clinical pictures associated with fever and reviewing the potential available treatments.

Abstract
Notch pathway is a highly conserved intracellular signaling route that modulates a vast variety of cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, migration, cell fate and death. Recently, the presence of a strict crosstalk between Notch signaling and inflammation has been described, although the precise molecular mechanisms underlying this interplay have not yet been fully unravelled. Disruptions in Notch cascade, due both to direct mutations and/or to an altered regulation in the core components of Notch signaling, might lead to hypo- or hyperactivation of Notch target genes and signaling molecules, ultimately contributing to the onset of autoinflammatory diseases. To date, alterations in Notch signaling have been reported as associated with three autoinflammatory disorders, therefore, suggesting a possible role of Notch in the pathogenesis of the following diseases: hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), Behçet disease (BD), and giant cell arteritis (GCA). In this review, we aim at better characterizing the interplay between Notch and autoinflammatory diseases, trying to identify the role of this signaling route in the context of these disorders.

Abstract
Interleukin 1 (IL-1), a central mediator of innate immunity, is considered a master cytokine of local and systemic inflammation. IL-1 has emerged as pivotal in the pathogenesis of autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs), and blockade of its pathway has become a crucial target for therapy. Anakinra (ANA), a recombinant IL-1β receptor antagonist, was the first anti-IL-1 agent employed in clinical practice. ANA is currently approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, adult-onset Still’s disease, and cryopyrin-associated autoinflammatory syndrome. It has also been successfully used for off-label treatment of various monogenic, polygenic, or undefined etiology systemic AIDs. This review describes currently available evidence for the off-label use of ANA in pediatric rheumatologic diseases. Specifically, the use of ANA in Kawasaki disease, idiopathic recurrent pericarditis, Behçet disease, monogenic AIDs, undifferentiated AIDs, chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis, macrophage activation syndrome, and febrile infection-related epilepsy, in terms of its safety and efficacy. In selected pediatric rheumatic disorders, the off-label administration of ANA appears to be effective and safe. In order to control severe and/or relapsing disease, ANA should be considered as a valuable treatment option in children suffering from rare inflammatory diseases. However, currently available data consist of retrospective studies and short case series; thus, randomized controlled trials and larger series with long-term follow up are mandatory to better assess the efficacy and cost effectiveness of ANA in these challenging patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inhibition of interleukin (IL)-1 represents a promising treatment option in adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD). OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of canakinumab in patients with AOSD and active joint involvement by means of a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial. METHODS Patients with AOSD and active joint involvement (tender and swollen joint counts of ≥4 each) were treated with canakinumab (4 mg/kg, maximum 300 mg subcutaneous every 4 weeks) or placebo. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with a clinically relevant reduction in disease activity at week 12 as determined by the change in disease activity score (ΔDAS28>1.2). RESULTS At enrolment, patients had high active disease with a mean DAS28(ESR) of 5.4 in the canakinumab and 5.3 in the placebo group, respectively. In the intention-to-treat analysis, 12 patients (67%) in the canakinumab group and 7 patients (41%) in the placebo group fulfilled the primary outcome criterion (p=0.18). In the per-protocol analysis, significantly higher American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 30% (61% vs 20%, p=0.033), ACR 50% (50% vs 6.7%, p=0.009) and ACR 70% (28% vs 0%, p=0.049) response rates were observed in the canakinumab group compared with the placebo group. Two patients in the canakinumab group experienced a serious adverse event. CONCLUSION Although the study was terminated prematurely and the primary endpoint was not achieved, treatment with canakinumab led to an improvement of several outcome measures in AOSD. The overall safety findings were consistent with the known profile of canakinumab. Thus, our data support indication for IL-1 inhibition with canakinumab in AOSD.

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
Autoinflammation as a distinct disease category was first reported in 1999 as a group of monogenic disorders characterized by recurrent episodes of systemic and organ-specific inflammation, known as periodic fever syndromes. Since this original description, the focus has shifted considerably to the inclusion of complex multifactorial conditions with an autoinflammatory basis. Furthermore, the boundaries of what are considered to be autoinflammatory disorders are constantly evolving and currently encompass elements of immunodeficiency and autoimmunity. Notable developments in the intervening 20 years include substantial progress in understanding how the different inflammasomes are activated, how infection is sensed by the innate immune system and how intracellular signalling systems are consequently activated and integrated with many different cellular functions in the autoinflammatory process. With these developments, the field of autoinflammation is moving from a gene-centric view of innate immune-mediated disease towards a systems-based concept, which describes how various convergent pathways, including pyrin and the actin cytoskeleton, protein misfolding and cellular stress, NF-κB dysregulation and interferon activation, contribute to the autoinflammatory process. The development and adoption of a systems-based concept of systemic autoinflammatory diseases is anticipated to have implications for the development of treatments that target specific components of the innate immune system.

Abstract
Adult-onset Still’s disease (AoSD) is a rare but clinically well-known, polygenic, systemic autoinflammatory disease. It is typically characterized by four main (cardinal) symptoms: spiking fever ≥39 °C, arthralgia or arthritis, skin rash, and hyperleukocytosis (≥10,000 cells/mm3). However, many other clinical features are possible, and it can appear in all age groups with potentially severe inflammatory onset accompanied by a broad spectrum of disease manifestation and complications. Hence, it remains a diagnostic challenge, and the clinician should first rule out infectious, tumoral, or inflammatory differential diagnoses. Determination of the total and glycosylated ferritin levels, although not pathognomonic, can help in diagnosis. New biomarkers have recently been described, but they need to be validated. The disease evolution of AoSD can be monocyclic, polycyclic, or chronic. In chronic disease, a joint involvement is often predominant, and erosions are noted in one-third of patients. Many progresses have been made in the understanding of the pathogenesis over the last decades. This chapter provides a comprehensive insight into the complex and heterogeneous nature of AoSD describing the identified cytokine signaling pathways and biomarkers. It also discusses the current evidence for the usage of biologics in AoSD to provide guidance for treatment decisions, taking into account both the efficacy and the safety of the different therapeutic options.

Abstract
To define the spectrum and phenotypic characteristics of systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs) other than familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) in Arab children and to delineate diagnostic evaluation. Data retrospectively collected on patients with clinical and/or genetically proven SAIDs other than FMF at 10 tertiary Arab pediatric rheumatology clinics from 1990 to 2018. The collected data comprised the clinical findings and diagnostic evaluation including genetic testing, the provided treatment and the accrual damage related to SAIDs. A total of 144 patients (93 female) with a median age at onset of 2.5 (range 0.1-12) years were enrolled. The initial diagnosis was inaccurate in 49.3%. Consanguinity rate among parents was 74.6%. The median time-to-diagnosis for all SAIDs was 2.5 (range 0.1-10) years. There were 104 patients (72.2%) with a confirmed diagnosis and 40 patients with suspected SAIDs. Seventy-two had monogenic and 66 patients with multifactorial SAIDs while six patients had undifferentiated SAIDs. The most frequent monogenic SAIDs were LACC1 mediated monogenic disorders (n = 23) followed by CAPS (12), TRAPS (12), HIDS (12), and Majeed's syndrome (6). The most frequent multifactorial SAIDs was CRMO (34), followed by PFAPA (18), and early onset sarcoidosis (EOS) (14). Genetic analysis was performed in 69 patients; 50 patients had genetically confirmed disease. Corticosteroid used for 93 patients while biologic agents for 96 patients. Overall, growth failure was the most frequent accrual damage (36%), followed by cognitive impairment (13%). There were three deaths because of infection. This study shows a heterogenous spectrum of SAIDs with a high number of genetically confirmed monogenic diseases; notably, LACC1 associated diseases. Hopefully, this work will be the first step for a prospective registry for SAIDs in Arab countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the role of autophagy in the development of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) by analyzing the expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-II (LC3-II), myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), and suppressor of T-cell receptor signaling 1 (STS-1) in peripheral blood lymphocytes of children with sJIA. METHODS A total of 26 children with sJIA were enrolled as the sJIA group, and 26 healthy children were enrolled as the control group. Western blot was used to measure the protein expression of LC3-II, STS-1, and MyD88 in peripheral blood lymphocytes. Immunofluorescence assay was used to measure the expression of LC3-II in the cytoplasm of lymphocytes. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between indices. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the sJIA group had significant increases in the expression of LC3-II, STS-1, and MyD88 (P<0.05). In the sJIA group, the expression of LC3-II was positively correlated with that of MyD88 (r=0.478, P<0.05), and the expression of STS-1 was also positively correlated with that of MyD88 (r=0.817, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS There is high expression of LC3-II in peripheral blood lymphocytes of children with sJIA, suggesting that the development of sJIA may be associated with excessive expression of autophagy. STS-1 may induce autophagy by activating some signaling pathways, and MyD88 may participate in autophagy through the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway.

Abstract
Adult-onset Still’s disease (AoSD) is a rare but clinically well-known, polygenic, systemic autoinflammatory disease. Owing to its sporadic appearance in all adult age groups with potentially severe inflammatory onset accompanied by a broad spectrum of disease manifestation and complications, AoSD is an unsolved challenge for clinicians with limited therapeutic options. This Review provides a comprehensive insight into the complex and heterogeneous nature of AoSD, describing biomarkers of the disease and its progression and the cytokine signalling pathways that contribute to disease. The efficacy and safety of biologic therapeutic options are also discussed, and guidance for treatment decisions is provided. Improving the approach to AoSD in the future will require much closer cooperation between paediatric and adult rheumatologists to establish common diagnostic strategies, treatment targets and goals. Adult-onset Still’s disease (AoSD) is not easily diagnosed, and treatment options are limited. This Review provides an overview of the disease and its pathogenesis, clinical trial results, therapeutic options and a plan to diagnose and clinically manage these patients. Similar to systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis, adult-onset Still’s disease (AoSD) is a rare systemic autoinflammatory disease with potentially severe inflammatory onset accompanied by a broad spectrum of disease manifestation and complications. AoSD should be considered in patients with persistent fever, and the diagnosis is based on the combination of clinical and laboratory findings as well as the exclusion of other inflammatory conditions. Central to the pathogenesis of AoSD is the intense activation of innate immune cells and overproduction of several pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-1, IL-6 and IL-18. Two IL-1 antagonists have been approved for treatment of AoSD, and growing evidence suggests that other biologic agents are therapeutic options, such as anti-IL-6 and anti-IL-18 therapeutics. As a reliable prediction of response and outcome is not possible, therapeutic decisions have to be made on the basis of clinical, biological or imaging characteristics of disease. A close cooperation between paediatric and adult rheumatologists is required to establish common diagnostic strategies, treatment targets and goals.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims at summarizing the current knowledge of A20 haploinsufficiency and other paediatric inflammatory disorders with mucosal involvement. RECENT FINDINGS A20 haploinsufficiency is a newly described autoinflammatory disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in TNFAIP3 that result in the activation of the nuclear factor (NF)-kB pathway. Patients may present with dominantly inherited, early-onset systemic inflammation and a Behçet-like disease, or a variety of autoinflammatory and autoimmune features. In Behçet disease, recent literature provides insights into genetic susceptibility and emerging treatment options; in addition, the first paediatric classification criteria were published. Recent advances in periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and adenitis syndrome (PFAPA) suggest that the disease has a complex underlying genetic mechanism and in some cases is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern with reduced penetrance phenotype in many family members. Activation of the pyrin inflammasome through the RoA signalling pathway uncovers an interesting molecular connection between hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome and familial Mediterranean fever. The description of new monogenic types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may provide novel insights into disease pathogenesis. Finally, recent studies highlighted the role of gut microorganisms and dysbiosis in IBD. SUMMARY Monogenic diseases such as A20 haploinsufficiency may help to advance our understanding of disease pathogenesis and to develop targeted therapies for more common, multifactorial disorders with mucosal inflammation.

Abstract
Identification of genetic causes of primary monogenic immunodeficiencies would strengthen the current understanding of their immunopathology. Pathogenic variants in genes in association with tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) signaling, including OTULIN, TNFAIP3, RBCK1, and RNF31 cause human congenital autoinflammatory diseases with/without immunodeficiency. RIPK1, encoding a receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 1, is present in protein complexes mediating signal transduction including TNF receptor 1. Biallelic loss-of-function variants in RIPK1 were recently reported in individuals with primary immunodeficiency with intestinal bowel disease and arthritis. Here, we report a novel homozygous RIPK1 variant in a boy with immunodeficiency and chronic enteropathy. Our patient exhibited severe motor delay and mild intellectual disability, which were previously unknown. The present results are expected to deepen the current understanding of clinical features based on RIPK1 abnormalities.

Abstract
The master pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumour necrosis factor (TNF), has been shown to modulate multiple signalling pathways, with wide-ranging downstream effects. TNF plays a vital role in the typical immune response through the regulation of a number of pathways encompassing an immediate inflammatory reaction with significant innate immune involvement as well as cellular activation with subsequent proliferation and programmed cell death or necrosis. As might be expected with such a broad spectrum of cellular effects and complex signalling pathways, TNF has also been implicated in a number of disease states, such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and Crohn’s disease. Since the time of its discovery over 40 years ago, TNF ligand and its receptors, TNF receptor (TNFR) 1 and 2, have been categorised into two complementary superfamilies, namely TNF (TNFSF) and TNFR (TNFRSF), and 19 ligands and 29 receptors have been identified to date. There have been significant advances in our understanding of TNF signalling pathways in the last decade, and this short review aims to elucidate some of the most recent advances involving TNF signalling in health and disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Advances in sequencing techniques and systematic cohort-analysis of patients with autoinflammatory phenotypes have enabled a burst in the recognition of new autoinflammatory diseases and contributed to the description of the mechanisms involved in autoinflammation. This review focuses on new genetic and mechanistic discoveries that have broadened the definition of autoinflammatory diseases in the context of the established landscape, providing new therapeutic opportunities and avenues for further discoveries. RECENT FINDINGS Mechanistic insights of inflammatory diseases open opportunities for new targeted therapies. Advances in high-throughput screening of small-molecule inhibitors accelerate the discovery of new and more specific therapeutic options. Recent evidence establishes IL-18 as a driver of macrophage activation, emerging as a new biomarker and therapeutic target. Finally, the identification of escape of nonsense-mediated decay as the genetic mechanism resulting in a monogenic immune-dysregulatory disease, unveils a possibility for future discoveries. SUMMARY Recent mechanistic findings in autoinflammatory diseases as well as the identification of specific biomarkers and discovery of new diseases, continue to pave the way for ever more specific targeted approaches. These therapies are not only applicable to monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes but also for other diseases in which the same pathways are dysregulated.

Abstract
The spectrum of factors known to mediate autoinflammation has broadened recently to include not only interleukin-1 (IL-1) and interferon, but also abnormalities that impair NF-κB pathway negative regulation. The NF-κB pathway is activated upon contact of a ligand with tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) and plays a pivotal role in triggering the inflammatory process by producing major cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF. Negative regulation of the NF-κB pathway, which is essential to stop the inflammatory process, depends on the level of ubiquitination of the proteins associated with TNFR1 and of other intermediate compounds. A20 and otulin are proteins that influence the level of ubiquitination, and a deficiency in either can result in NF-κB activation with overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Similar to Behçet's disease, A20 haploinsufficiency manifests as oral and genital ulcers and, more rarely, as uveitis. However, transmission is dominant, symptom onset occurs at a younger age, and severe gastrointestinal involvement is at the forefront of the clinical picture. Clinical presentations are extremely diverse. Over their lifetime, affected patients simultaneously or sequentially experience autoinflammatory and autoimmune manifestations. Mild immune deficiency predominantly affecting humoral responses is less common. Otulin deficiency results in systemic inflammatory manifestations at a very young age, with panniculitis, lipodystrophy, and inflammatory bowel disease. The main differential diagnosis is proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndrome. The treatment of A20 haploinsufficiency and otulin deficiency is challenging and remains unstandardized. The symptoms respond to high-dose glucocorticoid therapy. TNF antagonists and IL-1 antagonists have shown some measure of efficacy.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) are conditions related to defective regulation of the innate immune system. Sanger sequencing of the causative genes has long been the reference for confirming the diagnosis. However, for many patients with a typical AID phenotype, the genetic cause remains unknown. A pioneering study in 2005 demonstrated mosaicism in patients with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS); the authors found somatic mosaicism in 69% of their cohort of Sanger-negative CAPS patients. We aim to address the extent to which mosaicism contributes to the etiology of AIDs and its impact on phenotype. We retrieved English-language publications reporting mosaicism in AIDs by querying PubMed with no restriction on date and we surveyed French reference centers. We provide a comprehensive clinical and genetic picture of mosaicism in AIDs. We estimate that the proportion of CAPS-like patients presenting mosaicism ranges from 0.5% to 19%. We also discuss the possible links between the proportion of mutated alleles and various clinical features. This review reevaluates the contribution of mosaic DNA variants in CAPS. Mosaicism may be more common than anticipated in other AIDs. No significant difference was demonstrated between variant allele frequency and clinical phenotype. Such knowledge has implications for the development of guidelines for genetic diagnosis, genetic counseling of affected families and effective patient care.

Abstract
Background Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a rare inflammatory disorder characterized by the classical triad of daily spiking fever, arthritis, and typical salmon-colored rash. Resistance to first-line corticosteroids and second-line disease modified anti-rheumatic-drugs defines refractory AOSD, which mostly includes the polycyclic or chronic courses of the disease. Anti-cytokine therapies are recommended in AOSD patients who are refractory to traditional treatments. This is the first report on the efficacy of colchicine in a patient with AOSD which was refractory to immunosuppressive treatments including biologics. Case presentation A 24-years Japanese female patient was referred to our hospital for the flare-up of AOSD under the combined treatments with steroid, immunosuppressants, and biologics. She was diagnosed with AOSD according to the Yamaguchi criteria, based on the presence of spiking fever, polyarthralgia, skin rash, and hyperferritinemia. Interleukin-6 or tumor necrosis factor-α blockade treatments were not effective, the oral administration of colchicine was stared under the immunosuppressive treatments with steroid and cyclosporine A (CyA). Colchicine treatment silenced the disease activity of AOSD. The dose of prednisolone was successfully tapered, and the elevated levels of C-reactive protein were normalized. Remission has been maintained for 13 months with the start of oral administration of colchicine. Conclusion We concluded that colchicine is an alternative treatment in patients with refractory AOSD, particularly in those with impaired therapeutic effects against anti-cytokines therapies.

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
The auto-inflammatory diseases linked to NLRC4 mutations are recently described entities. Transmission is autosomal dominant in 80 % of cases; cases of somatic mutation have already been reported. The disease may display two very different clinical phenotypes: the phenotype 1 (30 %), severe, is dominated by a multisystemic inflammation starting in the first year of life with symptoms of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), macrophagic actication syndrome (MAS), or even a presentation suggesting a cryopyrinopathy in its CINCA form; the mortality of this phenotype is high (25 %). The phenotype 2 (70 %), mild, usually starts after the age of 3 and is characterized by cold urticaria, arthralgia, ocular features and fever in 50 % of cases without visceral failure. Anti-interleukin-1 inhibitors are effective in most cases (83 %). Interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels are very high in both clinical forms. Interleukin-18 inhibitors and anti-interferon-gamma inhibitors were remarkably effective in two very severe phenotype 1 patients. Thus, NLRC4 mutations can induce various clinical manifestations with two distinct phenotypes. Although still rare, because very recently described, this group of diseases could be evoked by an internist in front of cold familial urticarial; probably more and more cases will be diagnosed thanks to the major progresses of genetic diagnostic tools such as next generation sequencing.

Abstract
Monogenic autoinflammatory diseases (AIFD) are rare disorders characterized by an uncontrolled increase of the systemic inflammatory response, which is caused by mutations in genes involved in inflammatory pathways. Over the last few years, new genes and proteins responsible for new monogenic AIFD have been identified and a substantial improvement in their treatment has been achieved. Monogenic AIFD manifestations typically begin during childhood, but they can also occur in adults. Compared to pediatric patients, adults usually present with a less severe disease and fewer long-term complications. In addition, patients with adult-onset disease carry low-penetrance mutations more often than pathogenic variants. A late-onset of AIFD may be occasionally associated with the presence of somatic mutations. In this study, we review the most frequent monogenic AIFD, and others recently described, which may occur during adulthood.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Practitioners dazed by the evolving concept of autoinflammation are in good company. Despite the clinical challenges autoinflammatory patients present, their study has been fundamental to our understanding of basic human inflammation. This review will focus on the ways in which recent discoveries in genetically mediated autoinflammation broaden and refine the concept. RECENT FINDINGS Major developments in pyrin inflammasome biology, defective ubiquitination, and the hyperferritinemic syndromes will be highlighted. SUMMARY We offer a brief discussion of discordance, convergence, genotype, and phenotype in autoinflammation. Additionally, we introduce the concepts of mutation dose effect and hybrid nomenclature. Overall, we hope to provide an update on developments in the field of autoinflammation, some conceptual tools to help navigate the rising tide of discovery, and some encouragement that keeping up with developments in autoinflammation is both exciting and necessary.
