[PMID: 39091491 PMCID: PMC11291197 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1410661] [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: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To clarify the impact of intravenous infusion of gamma globulin (IVIg) on antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) in children. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the data of children with nonspecific autoantibody-related diseases whose antinuclear antibody (ANA) and autoantibody profiles were detected in our hospital from January to March 2022. A total of 108 patients with a clear history of IVIg infusion within 28 days composed the IVIg group, and 1201 patients without a history of IVIg infusion composed the non-IVIg group. Results All patients in the IVIg group had either positive ANAs or positive autoantibodies. Anti-SSA, anti-Ro52 and anti-AMA Mi2 were the top three autoantibodies in the IVIg group. The proportions of patients who were positive for either of these three autoantibodies in the IVIg group were significantly greater than those in the non-IVIg group (all P<0.5). Spearman correlation analysis revealed that the signal intensities of anti-SSA and anti-Ro52 were negatively correlated with the number of days of ANA detection after IVIg infusion (P<0.05). Multiple logistic analyses revealed that a greater total dosage of IVIg, greater IVIg per kilogram of body weight, and fewer ANA detection days after IVIg infusion were independent risk factors for positive anti-SSA and anti-Ro52 results. Conclusions It is recommended that if rheumatic diseases are suspected, ANA detection should be carried out beforeIVIg infusion. But for patients who are positive for at least one of these three autoantibodies after IVIg infusion, doctors should first consider adoptive antibodies.

Abstract
Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) is a variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) characterized by distinct skin lesions. Clinical manifestations typically include annular or psoriasiform skin lesions, often localized in sun-exposed areas such as the chest and back. The pathogenesis of SCLE is largely unknown, and contributing factors include genetics, environmental exposures, and immunological dysregulation. SCLE may be idiopathic or drug-induced, with common triggers being calcium channel blockers, thiazide diuretics, and terbinafine. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment, frequently used in various autoimmune conditions, has a rare association with SCLE. We report a case in which this condition arose during IVIG treatment for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Knowledge of this rare effect is beneficial to all providers who prescribe IVIG, including neurology, rheumatology, and dermatology.

Transfusion 2024; 64:597-605. [PMID: 38400628 DOI: 10.1111/trf.17766] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIgs) derived from the pooled plasma of thousands of donors contain numerous types of IgG molecules, including autoantibodies commonly used to diagnose autoimmunity. While these autoantibodies can cause misinterpretation of serological tests for IVIg recipients, their profiles in IVIg preparations are not fully understood. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Using binding-capability based immune assays, we measured 18 varieties of clinically relevant autoantibodies in domestic blood donor-derived IVIg products. In addition, we analyzed an IVIg product from a US brand to evaluate the influence of regional and racial differences. Based on the determined autoantibody titers, pharmacokinetics of passively acquired autoantibodies and their possible detection period in serum were estimated. RESULTS Anti-thyroglobulin (Tg), anti-thyroidperoxidase (TPO), and anti-Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A (SS-A) antibodies were present in considerable amounts in IVIg products. Notably, these three autoantibodies can be detected in IVIg recipients' sera for up to 3 months after infusion. DISCUSSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that analyzed multiple autoantibody profiles in both pooled plasma and IVIg products and that further evaluated their potential influences on diagnosis of autoimmunity. Clinicians should keep in mind that IVIgs contain several autoantibodies and that their infusion can produce false-positive serology results. To establish an accurate diagnosis, serological tests must be carefully interpreted and clinical symptoms should be more purposefully considered if patients are receiving IVIg therapy.

Abstract
We investigated the changes in antibody titers after intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) administration in patients with neuromuscular diseases. Among patients who received IVIg from April 1, 2020, to August 31, 2022, we retrospectively evaluated 15 patients with antibody measurements before and after IVIg administration for any rise in the following antibody levels and examined the data for subsequent changes of false positive results to negative ones. The levels of anti SS-A, anti-thyroglobulin, anti-thyroid peroxidase, anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase, HBs, and HBc antibodies transiently increased after IVIg administration and showed false-positive results. However, levels of rheumatoid factor and anti-nuclear and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies were not elevated. The false-positive results became negative after 3 months. Here, we report on the changes in antibody levels before and after IVIg administration and note that levels of hepatitis B virus-related antibodies and various autoantibodies transiently rise after IVIg administration.

Anti-Inflammatory and Immunomodulatory Effect of High-Dose Immunoglobulins in Children: From Approved Indications to Off-Label Use. Cells 2023; 12:2417. [PMID: 37830631 PMCID: PMC10572613 DOI: 10.3390/cells12192417] [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: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The large-scale utilization of immunoglobulins in patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) since 1952 prompted the discovery of their key role at high doses as immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory therapy, in the treatment of IEI-related immune dysregulation disorders, according to labelled and off-label indications. Recent years have been dominated by a progressive imbalance between the gradual but constant increase in the use of immunoglobulins and their availability, exacerbated by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. OBJECTIVES To provide pragmatic indications for a need-based application of high-dose immunoglobulins in the pediatric context. SOURCES A literature search was performed using PubMed, from inception until 1st August 2023, including the following keywords: anti-inflammatory; children; high dose gammaglobulin; high dose immunoglobulin; immune dysregulation; immunomodulation; immunomodulatory; inflammation; intravenous gammaglobulin; intravenous immunoglobulin; off-label; pediatric; subcutaneous gammaglobulin; subcutaneous immunoglobulin. All article types were considered. IMPLICATIONS In the light of the current imbalance between gammaglobulins' demand and availability, this review advocates the urgency of a more conscious utilization of this medical product, giving indications about benefits, risks, cost-effectiveness, and administration routes of high-dose immunoglobulins in children with hematologic, neurologic, and inflammatory immune dysregulation disorders, prompting further research towards a responsible employment of gammaglobulins and improving the therapeutical decisional process.

Abstract
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a therapeutic preparation used in the treatment of multiple diseases. Autoimmune testing with antinuclear antibody (ANA) screening is often obtained for some of these conditions, but only after initiation of IVIG treatment. This can present a diagnostic dilemma in hospitalized patients and may trigger a rheumatology consultation. We describe our consultative inpatient two-year experience with five such patients and review the pertinent literature. A retrospective chart review of rheumatology inpatient consultations between 6-2018 and 6-2020 at our academic tertiary care hospital for post-IVIG positive serologies was performed. A pertinent literature review was performed. Five patients had a positive ANA and other autoantibodies detected in their serum after they received IVIG for non-rheumatological conditions. None of these patients met the criteria for a connective tissue disease. The literature review identified a total of 58 patients from case reports and case series, several of whom tested positive for ANA and other antibodies after receiving IVIG. Studies assessing specific IVIG products detected multiple autoantibodies in the donor pool. Autoimmune testing is initiated on inpatients receiving IVIG for non-rheumatological conditions. If an autoantibody ANA screen is positive, a rheumatology consultation may be requested. In the absence of pre-IVIG antibody tests it is difficult to interpret post-IVIG-positive antibodies. Whether such positive antibodies are of clinicopathological significance is determined by clinical judgment and time.

Abstract
The antibody profile against autoantigens previously associated with autoimmune diseases and other human proteins in patients with COVID-19 or multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) remains poorly defined. Here we show that 30% of adults with COVID-19 had autoantibodies against the lung antigen KCNRG, and 34% had antibodies to the SLE-associated Smith-D3 protein. Children with COVID-19 rarely had autoantibodies; one of 59 children had GAD65 autoantibodies associated with acute onset of insulin-dependent diabetes. While autoantibodies associated with SLE/Sjögren's syndrome (Ro52, Ro60, and La) and/or autoimmune gastritis (gastric ATPase) were detected in 74% (40/54) of MIS-C patients, further analysis of these patients and of children with Kawasaki disease (KD), showed that the administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) was largely responsible for detection of these autoantibodies in both groups of patients. Monitoring in vivo decay of the autoantibodies in MIS-C children showed that the IVIG-derived Ro52, Ro60, and La autoantibodies declined to undetectable levels by 45-60 days, but gastric ATPase autoantibodies declined more slowly requiring >100 days until undetectable. Further testing of IgG and/or IgA antibodies against a subset of potential targets identified by published autoantigen array studies of MIS-C failed to detect autoantibodies against most (16/18) of these proteins in patients with MIS-C who had not received IVIG. However, Troponin C2 and KLHL12 autoantibodies were detected in 2 of 20 and 1 of 20 patients with MIS-C, respectively. Overall, these results suggest that IVIG therapy may be a confounding factor in autoantibody measurements in MIS-C and that antibodies against antigens associated with autoimmune diseases or other human proteins are uncommon in MIS-C.

Abstract
Initially, children were thought to be spared from disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, a month into the epidemic, a novel multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) emerged. Herein, we report on the immune profiles of nine MIS-C cases. All MIS-C patients had evidence of prior SARS-CoV-2 exposure, mounting an antibody response with intact neutralization capability. Cytokine profiling identified elevated signatures of inflammation (IL-18 and IL-6), lymphocytic and myeloid chemotaxis and activation (CCL3, CCL4, and CDCP1), and mucosal immune dysregulation (IL-17A, CCL20, and CCL28). Immunophenotyping of peripheral blood revealed reductions of non-classical monocytes, and subsets of NK and T lymphocytes, suggesting extravasation to affected tissues. Finally, profiling the autoantigen reactivity of MIS-C plasma revealed both known disease-associated autoantibodies (anti-La) and novel candidates that recognize endothelial, gastrointestinal, and immune-cell antigens. All patients were treated with anti-IL-6R antibody and/or IVIG, which led to rapid disease resolution.

Abstract
Initially, the global outbreak of COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spared children from severe disease. However, after the initial wave of infections, clusters of a novel hyperinflammatory disease have been reported in regions with ongoing SARS-CoV-2 epidemics. While the characteristic clinical features are becoming clear, the pathophysiology remains unknown. Herein, we report on the immune profiles of eight Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) cases. We document that all MIS-C patients had evidence of prior SARS-CoV-2 exposure, mounting an antibody response with normal isotype-switching and neutralization capability. We further profiled the secreted immune response by high-dimensional cytokine assays, which identified elevated signatures of inflammation (IL-18 and IL-6), lymphocytic and myeloid chemotaxis and activation (CCL3, CCL4, and CDCP1) and mucosal immune dysregulation (IL-17A, CCL20, CCL28). Mass cytometry immunophenotyping of peripheral blood revealed reductions of mDC1 and non-classical monocytes, as well as both NK- and T- lymphocytes, suggesting extravasation to affected tissues. Markers of activated myeloid function were also evident, including upregulation of ICAM1 and FcγR1 in neutrophil and non-classical monocytes, well-documented markers in autoinflammation and autoimmunity that indicate enhanced antigen presentation and Fc-mediated responses. Finally, to assess the role for autoimmunity secondary to infection, we profiled the auto-antigen reactivity of MIS-C plasma, which revealed both known disease-associated autoantibodies (anti-La) and novel candidates that recognize endothelial, gastrointestinal and immune-cell antigens. All patients were treated with anti-IL6R antibody or IVIG, which led to rapid disease resolution tracking with normalization of inflammatory markers.

Effects of IVIg treatment on autoantibody testing in neurological patients: marked reduction in sensitivity but reliable specificity. J Neurol 2019; 267:715-720. [PMID: 31728710 DOI: 10.1007/s00415-019-09614-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2019] [Revised: 10/10/2019] [Accepted: 10/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapy of autoimmune diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system with intravenous IgG immunoglobulin (IVIg) is well established. Since IVIg is produced from pooled human plasma, autoantibodies can be found in IVIg products and, accordingly, in patient sera after transfusion. The de novo evidence or disappearance of anti-neural autoantibodies after IVIg treatment has so far not been systematically examined. METHODS We screened 50 neurological patients before and after IVIg treatment for classical onconeural and the most common neurological surface autoantibodies as well as for ganglioside autoantibodies and 23 different antinuclear autoantibodies using immunoblot or cell-based indirect immunofluorescence assays. Furthermore, we screened 31 neurological patients with previously known seropositivity for disappearance of the corresponding antibody after treatment. RESULTS After IVIg treatment, 90% of all sera were de novo positive for antinuclear antibodies, especially for Ro-52. In contrast, 94% of all sera did not show any de novo-positive anti-neural antibodies. In the remaining three cases, titers were very low. Importantly, 12.9% of all tested sera of patients with known antibody positivity turned false negative after IVIg treatment and titers were falsely low in 37% of the remaining sera. CONCLUSIONS Here, we present for the first time results of a broad screening for clinically relevant autoantibodies before and after IVIg treatment in neurological patients. We identified a high specificity but reduced sensitivity for anti-neural antibody testing after IVIg transfusion. In contrast, antinuclear antibody testing is not reliable after IVIg treatment. These results are of high practical importance for diagnostic of neuroimmunological diseases.

Abstract
We describe six patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus (cLE) during immunoglobulin G (IgG) treatment. Five patients were diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and one patient with possible CIDP. Five patients received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and one patient received subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIg). Skin lesions were systematically assessed by a dermatologist including skin biopsies. Patients showed disseminated erythematous plaques on several parts of the body with pre-dominance of the chest and face. Skin biopsies showed perivascular and perifollicular vacuolar inflammation, consistent with the diagnosis of cLE. There were no signs of systemic lupus erythematosus. Anti-SSA (Ro60) antibodies were found in two patients and anti-Ro52 antibodies were detectable in one patient. Symptoms improved in three patients after switching to another brand of IVIg and after use of topical corticosteroids. However, these measures did not lead to a complete resolution of the skin lesions. To achieve complete remission, IgG treatment was ceased in four patients. This led to remission of the skin lesions in two patients and to marked improvement in the other two patients. IVIg had to be restarted in two patients because of a relapse of CIDP which led to worsening of the skin lesions. In one patient with clear IVIg dependency, treatment was continued with addition of topical steroids. In the patient using SCIg, cLE was photosensitive and showed spontaneous remission. The relation of cLE with IgG treatment suggests an immunoglobulin-induced cLE. Only one report previously described the occurrence of IVIg induced cLE in a patient with common variable immunodeficiency.

Abstract
Introduction Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by impaired antibody production. Kidney involvement in CVID is described in isolated and sporadic case reports. The objective of this study was to study the renal function pattern in CVID patients through glomerular and tubular function tests. Methods Study of 12 patients with CVID diagnosis and 12 healthy control individuals. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR), fractional excretion of sodium (FENa+) and potassium (FEK+), urinary concentration, and acidification capacity were measured. In addition, microalbuminuria and urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were evaluated as markers of selectivity of the glomerular barrier and inflammation, respectively. Results In relation to glomerular markers, all CVID patients had normal GFR (>90 mL/min/1.73 m2), and microalbuminuria and urinary MCP-1 levels were also similar to those of controls. Interestingly, CVID patients had reduced urinary concentration capacity, as demonstrated by lower U/POsm ratio, when compared to controls. Also, while all control subjects achieved a urinary pH less than 5.3, no CVID patients showed a decrease in urinary pH to such levels in response to acid loading with CaCl2, characterizing impaired urinary acidification capacity. Conclusion Patients showed a trend towards an elevated prevalence of tubular dysfunction, mainly related to urinary acidification and concentration capacities.
