Abstract
Drug hypersensitivities are common reactions due to immunologic responses. They are of utmost importance because they may generate severe and fatal outcomes. Some drugs may cause Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs), such as drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs), which can occur due to the interaction of intact drugs or their metabolites with Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLAs) and T cell receptors (TCRs). This type develops over a period of 24-72 h after exposure and is classified as type IV of DHRs. Acute generalized exanthematic pustulosis (AGEP), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) are types of Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions (SCARs). In this review, we aim to discuss the types of ADRs, the mechanisms involved in their development, and the role of immunogenetic factors, such as HLAs in type IV DHRs, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and some epigenetic modifications, e.g., DNA/histone methylation in a variety of genes and their promoters which may predispose subjects to DHRs. In conclusion, development of promising novel in vitro or in vivo diagnostic and prognostic markers is essential for identifying susceptible subjects or providing treatment protocols to work up patients with drug allergies as personalized medicine.

Abstract
Cephalosporin antibiotics are widely used in clinical settings, but they can cause hypersensitivity reactions, which may be influenced by genetic factors such as the expression of Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules. This study aimed to investigate whether specific HLA alleles were associated with an increased risk of adverse reactions to cephalosporins among individuals in the Taiwanese population. This retrospective case-control study analyzed data from the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative (TPMI) on 27,933 individuals who received cephalosporin exposure and had HLA allele genotyping information available. Using logistic regression analyses, we examined the associations between HLA genotypes, comorbidities, allergy risk, and severity. Among the study population, 278 individuals had cephalosporin allergy and 2780 were in the control group. Our results indicated that certain HLA alleles, including HLA-B*55:02 (OR = 1.76, 95% CI 1.18-2.61, p = 0.005), HLA-C*01:02 (OR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.05-1.77, p = 0.018), and HLA-DQB1*06:09 (OR = 2.58, 95% CI 1.62-4.12, p < 0.001), were significantly associated with an increased risk of cephalosporin allergy reactions. Additionally, the HLA-C*01:02 allele genotype was significantly associated with a higher risk of severe allergy (OR = 2.33, 95% CI 1.05-5.15, p = 0.04). This study identified significant associations between HLA alleles and an increased risk of cephalosporin allergy, which can aid in early detection and prediction of adverse drug reactions to cephalosporins. Furthermore, our study highlights the importance of HLA typing in drug safety and expanding our knowledge of drug hypersensitivity syndromes.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1400239. [PMID: 38863977 PMCID: PMC11165025 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1400239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Amoxicillin (AMX) is among the most prescribed and the best tolerated antimicrobials worldwide. However, it can occasionally trigger severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR) with a significant morbidity and mortality. The genetic factors that may be relevant to AMX-induced SCAR (AMX-SCAR) remain unclear. Identification of the genetic risk factor may prevent patients from the risk of AMX exposure and resume therapy with other falsely implicated drugs. Methodology Four patients with AMX-SCAR, 1,000 population control and 100 AMX-tolerant individuals were enrolled in this study. Both exome-wide and HLA-based association studies were conducted. Molecular docking analysis was employed to simulate the interactions between AMX and risk HLA proteins. Results Compared with AMX-tolerant controls, a significant association of HLA-B*15:01 with AMX-SCAR was validated [odds ratio (OR) = 22.9, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.68-1275.67; p = 7.34 × 10-3]. Moreover, 75% carriers of HLA-B*15:01 in four patients with AMX-SCAR, and the carrier frequency of 10.7% in 1,000 control individuals and 11.0% in 100 AMX-tolerant controls, respectively. Within HLA-B protein, the S140 present in all cases and demonstrated the strongest association with AMX-SCAR [OR = 53.5, p = 5.18 × 10-4]. Molecular docking results also confirmed the interaction between AMX and S140 of the HLA-B protein, thus eliminating the false-positive results during in association analysis. Conclusion Our findings suggest that genetic susceptibility may be involved in the development of AMX-SCAR in Han Chinese. However, whether the HLA-B variants observed in this study can be used as an effective genetic marker of AMX-induced SCAR still needs to be further explored in larger cohort studies and other ethnic populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, exhibiting significant genetic diversity, are associated with susceptibility to various clinical diseases and diverse in drug responses. High costs of HLA sequencing and the population-specific architecture of this genetic region necessitate the establishment of a population-specific HLA imputation reference panel. Moreover, there is a lack of understanding about the genetic and phenotypic landscape of HLA variations within the Taiwanese population. METHODS We created models for a Taiwanese-specific HLA imputation reference panel. These models were trained with the array genotype data and HLA sequencing data from 845 Taiwanese subjects. HLA imputation was applied for 59,448 Taiwanese subjects to characterize the HLA allele and haplotype frequencies. Additionally, a phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) was conducted to identify the phenotypes associated with HLA variations. The association of the biallelic HLA variants with the binary and quantitative traits were evaluated with additive logistic and linear regression models, respectively. Furthermore, an omnibus test with likelihood-ratio test was applied for each HLA amino acid position in the multiallelic HLA amino acid polymorphisms to compare the difference between a fitted model and a null model following a χ2 distribution of n-1 degree of freedom at a position with n residues. Finally, we estimated the prevalence of adverse drug reactions (ADR)-related HLA alleles in the Taiwanese population. RESULTS In this study, the reference panel models displayed remarkable accuracy, with averages of 99.3%, 98.9%, and 99.1% for 2-, 4-, 6-digit alleles of the eight classical HLA genes, respectively. For PheWAS, a total of 18,136 significant associations with HLA variants across 26 phenotypes are identified (p < 5×10-8), highlighting the pleiotropy feature of the HLA region. Among the independent signals, 15 are novel, including the association of HLA-B pos 138 variation with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and rs9266290 and rs9266292 with allergy. Through an analysis spanning the entire HLA region, we identified clusters of phenotype correlations. Finally, the carriers of pharmacogenomic related HLA alleles, including HLA-C*01:02 (35.86%), HLA-B*58:01 (20.9%), and HLA-B*15:02 (8.38%), were characterized in the Taiwanese general population. CONCLUSIONS We successfully delivered the HLA imputation for 59,448 Taiwanese subjects and characterized the genetic and phenotypic landscapes of the HLA variations. In addition, we quantified the estimated prevalence of the ADR-related HLA alleles in the Taiwanese population. The developed HLA imputation reference panel could be used for estimation of population HLA allele frequencies, which can facilitate further studies in the role of HLA variants in a wider range of phenotypes in the population.

Abstract
Methazolamide is used to treat patients with glaucoma. However, as a sulfonamide derivative, methazolamide shares the same adverse reaction profile as other sulfa-based medications. Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare delayed-type hypersensitivity cutaneous reactions with high morbidity and mortality. Here, we report a severe SJS/TEN overlap syndrome in an 85-year-old Chinese male patient who received methazolamide 25 mg twice daily for his left eye glaucoma. The causal relationship between SJS/TEN and methazolamide was categorized as "highly likely" on the algorithm for assessing drug causality for epidermal necrolysis. In addition to the treatments with methylprednisolone and immunoglobulin, we used a special electromagnetic spectrum therapeutic apparatus to provide skin wound care. The patient had a thoroughly satisfying recovery. This is the first case report to use electromagnetic field therapy in a patient with SJS/TEN. We share our experience here and suggest that electromagnetic field therapy can provide advanced skin wound care and facilitate the recovery of SJS/TEN.

Abstract
Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN), and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) cause significant morbidity and mortality and impede new drug development. HLA class I associations with SJS/TEN and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome have aided preventive efforts and provided insights into immunopathogenesis. In SJS/TEN, HLA class I-restricted oligoclonal CD8+ T-cell responses occur at the tissue level. However, specific HLA risk allele(s) and antigens driving this response have not been identified for most drugs. HLA risk alleles also have incomplete positive and negative predictive values, making truly comprehensive screening currently challenging. Although, there have been key paradigm shifts in knowledge regarding drug hypersensitivity, there are still many open and unanswered questions about SCAR immunopathogenesis, as well as genetic and environmental risk. In addition to understanding the cellular and molecular basis of SCAR at the single-cell level, identification of the MHC-restricted drug-reactive self- or viral peptides driving the hypersensitivity reaction will also be critical to advancing premarketing strategies to predict risk at an individual and drug level. This will also enable identification of biologic markers for earlier diagnosis and accurate prognosis, as well as drug causality and targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions are classified into immediate and delayed types, according to the onset time. In contrast to the immediate type, delayed drug hypersensitivity mainly involves T lymphocyte recognition of the drug antigens and cell activation. The clinical presentations of such hypersensitivity are various and range from mild reactions (e.g., maculopapular exanthema (MPE) and fixed drug eruption (FDE)), to drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP)). The common culprits of delayed drug hypersensitivity include anti-epileptics, antibiotics, anti-gout agents, anti-viral drugs, etc. Delayed drug hypersensitivity is proposed to be initiated by different models of molecular recognition, composed of drug/metabolite antigen and endogenous peptide, HLA presentation, and T cell receptor (TCR) interaction. Increasing the genetic variants of HLA loci and drug metabolic enzymes has been identified to be responsible for delayed drug hypersensitivity. Furthermore, preferential TCR clonotypes, and the activation of cytotoxic proteins/cytokines/chemokines, are also involved in the pathogenesis of delayed drug hypersensitivity. This review provides a summary of the current understanding of the molecular recognition, genetic susceptibility, and immune mediators of delayed drug hypersensitivity.
