[PMID: 39273293 PMCID: PMC11395647 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25179344] [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: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 07/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease, in particular among infants, and is characterized, among other things, by a modification in fatty acid and ceramide composition of the skin's stratum corneum. Palmitic acid and stearic acid, along with C16-ceramide and 2-hydroxy C16-ceramide, occur strikingly in AD. They coincide with a simultaneous decrease in very long-chain ceramides and ultra-long-chain ceramides, which form the outermost lipid barrier. Ceramides originate from cellular sphingolipid/ceramide metabolism, comprising a well-orchestrated network of enzymes involving various ELOVLs and CerSs in the de novo ceramide synthesis and neutral and acid CERase in degradation. Contrasting changes in long-chain ceramides and very long-chain ceramides in AD can be more clearly explained by the compartmentalization of ceramide synthesis. According to our hypothesis, the origin of increased C16-ceramide and 2-hydroxy C16-ceramide is located in the lysosome. Conversely, the decreased ultra-long-chain and very long-chain ceramides are the result of impaired ELOVL fatty acid elongation. The suggested model's key elements include the lysosomal aCERase, which has pH-dependent long-chain C16-ceramide synthase activity (revaCERase); the NADPH-activated step-in enzyme ELOVL6 for fatty acid elongation; and the coincidence of impaired ELOVL fatty acid elongation and an elevated lysosomal pH, which is considered to be the trigger for the altered ceramide biosynthesis in the lysosome. To maintain the ELOVL6 fatty acid elongation and the supply of NADPH and ATP to the cell, the polyunsaturated PPARG activator linoleic acid is considered to be one of the most suitable compounds. In the event that the increase in lysosomal pH is triggered by lysosomotropic compounds, compounds that disrupt the transmembrane proton gradient or force the breakdown of lysosomal proton pumps, non-HLA-classified AGEP may result.

Abstract
Posttranslational modifications can enhance immunogenicity of self-proteins. In several conditions, including hypertension, systemic lupus erythematosus, and heart failure, isolevuglandins (IsoLGs) are formed by lipid peroxidation and covalently bond with protein lysine residues. Here, we show that the murine class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC-I) variant H-2Db uniquely presents isoLG-modified peptides and developed a computational pipeline that identifies structural features for MHC-I accommodation of such peptides. We identified isoLG-adducted peptides from renal proteins, including sodium glucose transporter 2, cadherin 16, Kelch domain-containing protein 7A, and solute carrier family 23, that are recognized by CD8+ T cells in tissues of hypertensive mice, induce T cell proliferation in vitro, and prime hypertension after adoptive transfer. Finally, we find patterns of isoLG-adducted antigen restriction in class I human leukocyte antigens that are similar to those in murine analogs. Thus, we have used a combined computational and experimental approach to define likely antigenic peptides in hypertension.

Clues of HLAs, metabolic SNPs, and epigenetic factors in T cell-mediated drug hypersensitivity reactions. Heliyon 2024; 10:e33976.

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.

Drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions in a Lebanese outpatient population: A decade-long retrospective analysis (2012-2021). THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY. GLOBAL 2024; 3:100169. [PMID: 37876854 PMCID: PMC10590748 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacig.2023.100169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/26/2023]
Abstract
Background Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are becoming more common as a result of increasing prevalence and case complexity. Allergists and clinical immunologists worldwide are challenged daily to adequately diagnose and manage these reactions. Data in the literature regarding DHR outpatient consultations are scarce worldwide, limited in the Middle East, and currently unavailable in Lebanon. Objective This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of all reported DHRs over 10 years in a tertiary-care allergy clinic in Lebanon. Methods We conducted a decade-long (2012-21) retrospective analysis of the archived medical records of patients with a history of DHRs. Demographics, clinical history, diagnostic tools, and characteristics of the DHRs were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 758 patients experienced DHRs to therapeutic molecules provided for ambulatory care. Our results identified 72 medications. The most frequently implicated drug classes included β-lactam antibiotics (53.8%), followed closely by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (48.9%). Of the 758 patients, 32.6% reported DHRs to multiple molecules, and 11.8% reported concomitant DHRs to 1 or several molecules provided in the perioperative setting. Of those, opioids and neuromuscular blocking agents were the 2 most common therapeutic classes. Furthermore, we evaluated the cross-reactivity between molecules of the same class. In neuromuscular blocking agents, rocuronium and cisatracurium were the most commonly cross-reactive, and for opioids, the most common association we recorded was with morphine and pethidine. Conclusion Our findings constitute the first step toward a more comprehensive evaluation of the clinical characteristics of DHRs in Lebanon.

Abstract
Nanotechnology for drug delivery has made significant advancements over the last two decades. Innovations have been made in cancer research and development, including chemotherapies, imaging agents, and vaccine strategies, as well as other therapeutic areas, e.g., the recent commercialization of mRNA lipid nanoparticles as vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The field has also seen technological advancements to aid in addressing the complex questions posed by these novel therapies. In this latest edition of protocols and methods for nanoparticle characterization, we highlight both old and new methodologies for defining physicochemical properties, present both in vitro and in vivo methods to test for a variety of immunotoxicities, and describe assays used for pharmacological studies to assess drug release and tissue distribution.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are an inherent aspect of drug use. While approximately 80% of ADRs are predictable, immune system-mediated ADRs, often unpredictable, are a noteworthy subset. Skin-related ADRs, in particular, are frequently unpredictable. However, the wide spectrum of skin manifestations poses a formidable diagnostic challenge. Comprehending the pathomechanisms underlying ADRs is essential for accurate diagnosis and effective management. The skin, being an active immune organ, plays a pivotal role in ADRs, although the precise cutaneous immunological mechanisms remain elusive. Fortunately, clinical manifestations of skin-related ADRs, irrespective of their severity, are frequently rooted in immunological processes. A comprehensive grasp of ADR morphology can aid in diagnosis. With the continuous development of new pharmaceuticals, it is noteworthy that certain drugs including immune checkpoint inhibitors have gained notoriety for their association with ADRs. This paper offers an overview of immunological mechanisms involved in cutaneous ADRs with a focus on clinical features and frequently implicated drugs.

Abstract
Levofloxacin-induced severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (LEV-SCARs) remain unexplored. An association study of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles with LEV-SCARs among 12 patients, 806 healthy subjects, and 100 levofloxacin-tolerant individuals was performed. The carrier frequencies of HLA-B∗13:01 (odds ratio [OR]: 4.50; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.15-17.65; p = 0.043), HLA-B∗13:02 (OR: 6.14; 95% CI: 1.73-21.76; p = 0.0072), and serotype B13 (OR: 17.73; 95% CI: 3.61-86.95; p = 4.85 × 10-5) in patients with LEV-SCARs were significantly higher than those of levofloxacin-tolerant individuals. Molecular docking analysis suggested that levofloxacin formed more stable binding models with HLA-B∗13:01 and HLA-B∗13:02 than with non-risk HLA-B∗46:01. Mass spectrometry revealed that nonapeptides bound to HLA-B∗13:02 shifted at several positions after exposure to levofloxacin. Prospective screening for serotype B13 (sensitivity: 83%, specificity: 78%) and alternative drug treatment for carriers may significantly decrease the incidence of LEV-SCARs.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions are a diverse group of reactions mediated by the immune system after exposure to a drug. The Gell and Coombs classification divides immunologic DHRs into 4 major pathophysiologic categories based on immunologic mechanism. Anaphylaxis is a Type I hypersensitivity reaction that requires immediate recognition and treatment. Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) are a group of dermatologic diseases that result from a Type IV hypersensitivity process and include drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptom (DRESS) syndrome, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). Other types of reactions are slow to develop and do not always require rapid treatment. Emergency physicians should have a good understanding of these various types of drug hypersensitivity reactions and how to approach the patient regarding evaluation and treatment.

Abstract
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms or drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DRESS/DIHS) is one type of severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCAR). It is featured by fever, widespread skin lesions, protracted clinical course, internal organ involvement, and possibly long-term autoimmune sequelae. The presence of high-risk human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles, hypersensitivity reaction after culprit drug ingestion, and human herpesvirus reactivation may all contribute to its complex clinical manifestations. Some recent studies focusing on the roles of involved cytokines/chemokines and T cells co-signaling pathways in DRESS/DIHS were conducted. In addition, some predictors of disease severity and prognosis were also reported. In this review, we provided an update on the current understanding of the pathogenesis, potential biomarkers, and the relevant therapeutic rationales of DRESS/DIHS.

Abstract
Trichloroethylene (TCE) triggers a severe hypersensitivity syndrome in the occupational population dependent on dendritic cells (DCs). Chloral hydrate (CH), the major oxidative metabolite of TCE, has been proved to be the culprit causative substance of TCE-induced hypersensitivity by human patch tests. Because redox imbalance is essential for chemical sensitizers-induced maturation of DCs, we predicted that CH would activate DCs by the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated antioxidant response. This study selected THP-1 cells as the in vitro DC model, and we evaluated the cell activation markers, intracellular oxidative stress, and Nrf2 pathway related genes expression in response to CH in THP-1 cells. CH displayed significant stimulation of THP-1 cells activation, including CD54 and CD86 expression, IL-8 release, and cell migration, and damaged the redox balance by triggering ROS generation, GSH consumption, and antioxidase activities modulation. The levels of Nrf2 and its downstream genes (HO-1 and NQO1) in mRNA and protein expressions were upregulated by CH, and CH also promoted the nuclear translocation of Nrf2. Subsequently, we investigated the effects of antioxidant on Nrf2-mediated cell defense in CH treated cells. Pretreatment with curcumin dramatically reduced cell activation and oxidative stress triggered by CH in THP-1 cells. We also confirmed the specific role of Nrf2 in CH-induced cell activation using NRF2-knockout cells. Deficiency of Nrf2 inhibited cell activation and downregulated HO-1 and NQO1 expression in CH-challenged cells. These findings suggest that Nrf2-dependent redox homeostasis plays a pivotal role in CH-induced activation of THP-1 cells, thereby providing new knowledge of the allergen as well as the molecular mechanism involving in TCE-induce hypersensitivity syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Any substance used as a treatment for any disease can produce harmful or unpleasant events called adverse drug reactions (ADRs). They are due to inherent biological effects of the drug and are caused by immunological and non-immunological mechanisms. OBJECTIVES To describe the immunological mechanisms of hypersensitivity reactions (HSR) to drugs, their epidemiology, risk factors, classification, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. METHODS A review of the most current literature in English and Spanish was carried out, in the main databases, related to the HSR of various drug groups. RESULTS This study describes the terms used to define ADRs and HSRs, their classification and clinical manifestations, current diagnostic tools, treatment algorithms and prognosis of the most frequently used medications and with the highest prevalence of reported adverse events. CONCLUSION ADRs are a challenging entity, with a complex pathophysiology that has not been fully understood. Its approach requires a careful consideration since not all drugs have validated tests for their diagnosis nor a specific treatment. When indicating the use of any drug, the severity of the disease, the availability of other treatments and the potential risks of developing future adverse events should always be taken into consideration.

Associations of T-Cell Receptor Repertoire Diversity with L-Asparaginase Allergy in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15061829.

Abstract
Asparaginase is a critical component of therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but it is commonly associated with allergy, which results in morbidity and poorer outcomes. The underlying basis of this allergy is undoubtedly immune-mediated, but the exact components of T-cell immunity have yet to be characterized. We performed longitudinal TCR sequencing of 180 bone marrow samples from 67 children with B-ALL treated as part of the Ma-Spore-ALL-2010 trial, and we evaluated the associations of TCR profile with asparaginase hypersensitivity, with functional validation of asparaginase activity in a separate cohort of 113 children. We found that a more diverse and dynamically changing TCR repertoire was associated with increased risk of clinical hypersensitivity and decreased L-asp activity. Allergic patients had a higher proportion of infrequent clonotypes, as well as a significantly lower degree of shared clonotypes amongst the cohort. Allergic patients also had significantly higher longitudinal variability of clonotypes across timepoints, where a higher dissimilarity between diagnosis and week 5 represented an 8.1-fold increased risk of an allergic event. After an allergy had occurred, there was shaping and convergence of the TCR repertoire towards a common antigen. Understanding the immunological basis of T-cell responses in allergy lays the groundwork for developing predictive biomarkers or strategies to mediate this common toxicity in childhood ALL.

The immediate adverse drug reactions induced by ShenMai Injection are mediated by thymus-derived T cells and associated with RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1135701. [PMID: 37026017 PMCID: PMC10070857 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1135701] [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: 01/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction The mechanism of the immediate adverse drug reactions (ADRs) induced by ShenMai injection (SMI) has not been completely elucidated. Within 30 minutes, the ears and lungs of mice injected with SMI for the first time showed edema and exudation reactions. These reactions were different from the IV hypersensitivity. The theory of pharmacological interaction with immune receptor (p-i) offered a new insight into the mechanisms of immediate ADRs induced by SMI. Methods In this study, we determined that the ADRs were mediated by thymus-derived T cells through the different reactions of BALB/c mice (thymus-derived T cell normal) and BALB/c nude mice (thymus-derived T cell deficient) after injecting SMI. The flow cytometric analysis, cytokine bead array (CBA) assay and untargeted metabolomics were used to explain the mechanisms of the immediate ADRs. Moreover, the activation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway was detected by western blot analysis. Results In BALB/c mice, the vascular leakage and histopathology results showed the occurrence of the immediate ADRs induced by SMI. The flow cytometric analysis revealed that CD4+ T cell subsets (Th1/Th2, Th17/Treg) were imbalanced. And the levels of cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4, IL12P70 and INF-γ increased significantly. However, in BALB/c nude mice, all the indicators mentioned above have not changed significantly. The metabolic profile of both BALB/c mice and BALB/c nude mice was significantly changed after injecting SMI, and the notable increase in lysolecithin level might have a greater association with the immediate ADRs induced by SMI. The Spearman correlation analysis revealed that LysoPC (18:3(6Z,9Z,12Z)/0:0) showed a significant positive correlation with cytokines. After injecting SMI, the levels of RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway-related protein increased significantly in BALB/c mice. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) showed that the increased lysolecithin levels might be related to the activation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway. Discussion Together, the results of our study revealed that the immediate ADRs induced by SMI were mediated by thymus-derived T cells, and elucidated the mechanisms of such ADRs. This study provided new insights into the underlying mechanism of immediate ADRs induced by SMI.

Abstract
Immune-mediated type IV adverse drug reactions are idiosyncratic in nature, generally not related to the primary or secondary pharmacology of the drug. Due to their complex nature and rarity, these iatrogenic reactions are seldom predicted or encountered during preclinical/early clinical development stages, and often precipitate upon exposure to wider populations (i.e. phase III onwards). They confer a burden on the healthcare sector in both a clinical and financial sense presenting a severe impediment to the drug discovery and development process. Research over the past 50 years has improved our understanding of these reactions markedly as both in vitro and in vivo studies have placed the role of the immune system, in particular; drug-responsive T cells, firmly in the spotlight as the mediators of these reactions. Indeed, the role of different populations of T cells in adverse events and the interaction of drug molecules with HLA proteins expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells is of considerable interest. Herein, this review examines the pathways of immune-mediated adverse events including the various T cell subtypes implicated and the mechanisms of T cell activation. Additionally, we address the enigma of immunological tolerance and explore the role tolerance plays in determination of susceptibility to such adverse events even in individuals carrying immunogenic liabilities.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions induced by small molecule drugs encompass a broad spectrum of adverse drug reactions with heterogeneous clinical presentations and mechanisms. These reactions are classified into allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions and non-allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. At present, the hapten theory, pharmacological interaction with immune receptors (p-i) concept, altered peptide repertoire model, and altered T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire model have been proposed to explain how small molecule drugs or their metabolites induce allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. Meanwhile, direct activation of mast cells, provoking the complement system, stimulating or inhibiting inflammatory reaction-related enzymes, accumulating bradykinin, and/or triggering vascular hyperpermeability are considered as the main factors causing non-allergic drug hypersensitivity reactions. To date, many investigations have been performed to explore the underlying mechanisms involved in drug hypersensitivity reactions and to search for predictive and preventive methods in both clinical and non-clinical trials. However, validated methods for predicting and diagnosing hypersensitivity reactions to small molecule drugs and deeper insight into the relevant underlying mechanisms are still limited.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective A misdiagnosed “penicillin allergy” is a common problem in childhood. Recently, skipping skin tests (STs) and performing a direct oral challenge test (OCT) have become an increasingly common approach in children with suspected β-lactam (BL) allergy. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OCT without using ST in children who had a history of hypersensitivity reactions with BL antibiotics.
Materials and Methods We retrospectively evaluated direct OCT outcomes in children with both nonimmediate and immediate-type reaction history with BL antibiotics. STs were not performed before the challenge test. The patients were monitored for 4 hours after the challenge and continued using the drug in two divided doses for 3 days at home.
Results In this study, 72 patients were included, with median age of 7 years (interquartile range: 4; min: 1 year to max: 16 years), and of these, 56% were male. Forty-five subjects (63%) reported immediate-type adverse reactions. The most common clinical manifestation was urticaria/angioedema (51%, n: 37) and maculopapular exanthema in 46% (n: 33) of patients, respectively. The most commonly suspected drug was 71% amoxicillin-clavulanate. A 3-day OCT without preceding ST was performed in all patients. Only three patients (4.2%) showed a positive response to the oral drug challenge test. None of these reactions observed was more severe than index reactions.
Conclusion Performing OCT without STs is a safe and convenient method to exclude BL hypersensitivity in the pediatric age group.

Abstract
Dermatitis is the most common adverse event during treatment with benznidazole in chronic Chagas disease and is probably mediated by T cells. A set of molecules representative of the different type IV hypersensitivity reactions was evaluated in the circulation and skin biopsies of Trypanosoma cruzi-infected subjects presenting dermatitis during benznidazole administration. Through cytometric bead assays and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay capture techniques, the serum levels of cytokines, chemokines, proapoptotic molecules, and mediators of the activation and migration of eosinophils and T cells were measured in subjects infected with Trypanosoma cruzi who exhibited skin adverse events (n = 22) and compared with those without adverse events (n = 37) during benznidazole therapy. Serum levels of interleukin- 5 (IL-5), soluble Fas cell surface death receptor ligand (FAS-L), and interferon γ-induced protein (IP-10) significantly increased at 7 to 30 days posttreatment with benznidazole and decreased thereafter in subjects with dermatitis but not in those without dermatitis. Circulating eotaxin levels were lower in subjects with dermatitis than in those without. Two patterns emerged in the skin biopsies: a T helper 1/T cytotoxic profile and a T helper 2/T cytotoxic profile with the presence of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Increased low-density lipoprotein (LDL), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), uremia, and T cell activation emerged as risk factors for the development of dermatitis during benznidazole administration. These results support a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction to benznidazole, involving CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and eosinophils, and a mixed cytokine profile. This study provides new insights for better management of adverse drug reactions to benznidazole. IMPORTANCE This study identified the risk factors for the development of adverse reactions to benznidazole and identified a set molecule to monitor the appearance of these reactions. This knowledge might improve the safety of benznidazole administration.

Abstract
Both safety and efficacy of medical treatment can vary depending on the ethnogeographic background of the patient. One of the reasons underlying this variability is differences in pharmacogenetic polymorphisms in genes involved in drug disposition, as well as in drug targets. Knowledge and appreciation of these differences is thus essential to optimize population-stratified care. Here, we provide an extensive updated analysis of population pharmacogenomics in ten pharmacokinetic genes (CYP2D6, CYP2C19, DPYD, TPMT, NUDT15 and SLC22A1), drug targets (CFTR) and genes involved in drug hypersensitivity (HLA-A, HLA-B) or drug-induced acute hemolytic anemia (G6PD). Combined, polymorphisms in the analyzed genes affect the pharmacology, efficacy or safety of 141 different drugs and therapeutic regimens. The data reveal pronounced differences in the genetic landscape, complexity and variant frequencies between ethnogeographic groups. Reduced function alleles of CYP2D6, SLC22A1 and CFTR were most prevalent in individuals of European descent, whereas DPYD and TPMT deficiencies were most common in Sub-Saharan Africa. Oceanian populations showed the highest frequencies of CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles while their inferred CYP2D6 activity was among the highest worldwide. Frequencies of HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*58:01 were highest across Asia, which has important implications for the risk of severe cutaneous adverse reactions upon treatment with carbamazepine and allopurinol. G6PD deficiencies were most frequent in Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia with pronounced differences in variant composition. These variability data provide an important resource to inform cost-effectiveness modeling and guide population-specific genotyping strategies with the goal of optimizing the implementation of precision public health.

Abstract
![]()
Teicoplanin
is a glycopeptide antibiotic deployed to combat Gram-positive
bacterial infection and has recently been associated with development
of adverse drug reactions, particularly following previous exposure
to vancomycin. In this study, we generated teicoplanin-specific monoclonal
T-cell populations from healthy volunteers expressing HLA-A*32:01
and defined pathways of T-cell activation and HLA allele restriction.
Teicoplanin-responsive T-cells were CD8+, HLA class I-restricted,
and cross-reacted with the lipoglycopeptide daptomycin in proliferation
and cytokine/cytolytic molecule (granzyme B, Perforin, and FasL) release
assays. These data show that teicoplanin activates T-cells, which
may play a role in the pathogenesis of teicoplanin-induced adverse
events, in HLA-A*32:01 positive donors.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions are a diverse group of reactions mediated by the immune system after exposure to a drug. The Gell and Coombs classification divides immunologic DHRs into 4 major pathophysiologic categories based on immunologic mechanism. Anaphylaxis is a Type I hypersensitivity reaction that requires immediate recognition and treatment. Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) are a group of dermatologic diseases that result from a Type IV hypersensitivity process and include drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptom (DRESS) syndrome, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). Other types of reactions are slow to develop and do not always require rapid treatment. Emergency physicians should have a good understanding of these various types of drug hypersensitivity reactions and how to approach the patient regarding evaluation and treatment.

Predominant HLA Alleles and Haplotypes in Mild Adverse Drug Reactions Caused by Allopurinol in Vietnamese Patients with Gout. Diagnostics (Basel) 2021; 11:diagnostics11091611. [PMID: 34573954 PMCID: PMC8468422 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics11091611] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2021] [Revised: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Allopurinol (ALP) is commonly used as a drug for gout treatment. However, ALP is known to cause cutaneous adverse reactions (CARs) in patients. The HLA-B*58:01 allele is considered a biomarker of severe CAR (SCAR) in patients with gout, with symptoms of Stevens Johnson syndrome, and with toxic epidermal necrolysis. However, in patients with gout and mild cutaneous adverse drug reactions (MCARs), the role of HLA-allele polymorphisms has not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, 50 samples from ALP-tolerant patients and ALP-induced MCARs patients were genotyped in order to examine the polymorphisms of their HLA-A and HLA-B alleles. Our results showed that the frequencies of HLA-A*02:01/HLA-A*24:02 and HLA-A*02:01/HLA-A*29:01, the dual haplotypes in HLA-A, in patients with ALP-induced MCARs were relatively high, at 33.3% (7/21), which was HLA-B*58:01-independent, while the frequency of these dual haplotypes in the HLA-A locus in ALP-tolerant patients was only 3.45% (1/29). The HLA-B*58:01 allele was detected in 38% (8/21) of patients with ALP-induced MCARs, and in 3.45% (1/29) of ALP-tolerant patients. Notably, although HLA-B*58:01 may be a cause for the occurrence of MCARs in patients with gout, this correlation was not as strong as that previously reported in patients with SCAR. In conclusion, in addition to the HLA-B*58:01 allele, the presence of the dual haplotypes of HLA-A*02:01/HLA-A*24:02 and/or HLA-A*02:01/HLA-A*29:01 in the HLA-A locus may also play an important role in the appearance of ALP-induced MCARs in the Vietnamese population. The obtained primary data may contribute to the development of suitable treatments for patients with gout not only in Vietnam but also in other Asian countries.

Abstract
Type B adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are iatrogenic immune-mediated syndromes with mechanistic etiologies that remain incompletely understood. Some of the most severe ADRs, including delayed drug hypersensitivity reactions, are T-cell mediated, restricted by specific human leukocyte antigen risk alleles and sometimes by public or oligoclonal T-cell receptors (TCRs), central to the immunopathogenesis of tissue-damaging response. However, the specific cellular signatures of effector, regulatory, and accessory immune populations that mediate disease, define reaction phenotype, and determine severity have not been defined. Recent development of single-cell platforms bringing together advances in genomics and immunology provides the tools to simultaneously examine the full transcriptome, TCRs, and surface protein markers of highly heterogeneous immune cell populations at the site of the pathological response at a single-cell level. However, the requirement for advanced bioinformatics expertise and computational hardware and software has often limited the ability of investigators with the understanding of diseases and biological models to exploit these new approaches. Here we describe the features and use of a state-of-the-art, fully integrated application for analysis and visualization of multiomic single-cell data called Visual Genomics Analysis Studio (VGAS). This unique user-friendly, Windows-based graphical user interface is specifically designed to enable investigators to interrogate their own data. While VGAS also includes tools for sequence alignment and identification of associations with host or organism genetic polymorphisms, in this review we focus on its application for analysis of single-cell TCR-RNA-Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITE)-seq, enabling holistic cellular characterization by unbiased transcriptome and select surface proteome. Critically, VGAS does not require user-directed coding or access to high-performance computers, instead incorporating performance-optimized hidden code to provide application-based fast and intuitive tools for data analyses and production of high-resolution publication-ready graphics on standard specification laptops. Specifically, it allows analyses of comprehensive single-cell TCR sequencing (scTCR-seq) data, detailing (i) functional pairings of α-β heterodimer TCRs, (ii) one-click histograms to display entropy and gene rearrangements, and (iii) Circos and Sankey plots to visualize clonality and dominance. For unbiased single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analyses, users extract cell transcriptome signatures according to global structure via principal component analysis, t-distributed stochastic neighborhood embedding, or uniform manifold approximation and projection plots, with overlay of scTCR-seq enabling identification and selection of the immunodominant TCR-expressing populations. Further integration with similar sequence-based detection of surface protein markers using oligo-labeled antibodies (CITE-seq) provides comparative understanding of surface protein expression, with differential gene or protein analyses visualized using volcano plot or heatmap functions. These data can be compared to reference cell atlases or suitable controls to reveal discrete disease-specific subsets, from epithelial to tissue-resident memory T-cells, and activation status, from senescence through exhaustion, with more finite transcript expression displayed as violin and box plots. Importantly, guided tutorial videos are available, as are regular application updates based on the latest advances in bioinformatics and user feedback.

Abstract
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules encoded within the human major histocompatibility complex are a group of highly conserved cell surface proteins, which are related to antigen recognition. HLA genes display a high degree of genetic polymorphism, which is the basis of individual differences in immunity. Specific HLA genotypes have been highly associated with typical adverse drug reactions. HLA-A*31:01 and HLA-B*15:02 are associated with carbamazepine-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions, HLA-B*57:01 is related to abacavir-induced drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome and flucloxacillin/pazopanib-induced drug-induced liver injury, while HLA-B*35:01 is a potential biomarker for predicting polygonum multiflorum-induced liver injury. It is not clear how small drug molecules to interact with HLA molecules and T cell receptors (TCR). There are four mechanistic hypotheses, including the hapten/prohapten theory, the pharmacological interaction concept, the altered peptide repertoire model, and the altered TCR repertoire model.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) remain associated with significant mortality. Delayed hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) that occur greater than 6 h following drug administration are T-cell mediated with many severe DHRs now associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) risk alleles, opening pathways for clinical prediction and prevention. However, incomplete negative predictive value (NPV), low positive predictive value (PPV), and a large number needed to test (NNT) to prevent one case have practically prevented large-scale and cost-effective screening implementation. Additional factors outside of HLA contributing to risk of severe T-cell-mediated DHRs include variation in drug metabolism, T-cell receptor (TCR) specificity, and, most recently, HLA-presented immunopeptidome-processing efficiencies via endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase (ERAP). Active research continues toward identification of other highly polymorphic factors likely to impose risk. These include those previously associated with T-cell-mediated HLA-associated infectious or auto-immune disease such as Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR), epistatically linked with HLA class I to regulate NK- and T-cell-mediated cytotoxic degranulation, and co-inhibitory signaling pathways for which therapeutic blockade in cancer immunotherapy is now associated with an increased incidence of DHRs. As such, the field now recognizes that susceptibility is not simply a static product of genetics but that individuals may experience dynamic risk, skewed toward immune activation through therapeutic interventions and epigenetic modifications driven by ecological exposures. This review provides an updated overview of current and proposed genetic factors thought to predispose risk for severe T-cell-mediated DHRs.

Abstract
Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DIHS/DRESS) is a severe type of adverse drug eruption associated with multiorgan involvement and the reactivation of human herpesvirus 6, which arises after prolonged exposure to certain drugs. Typically, two waves of disease activity occur during the course of DIHS/DRESS; however, some patients experience multiple waves of exacerbation and remission of the disease. Severe complications, some of which are related to cytomegalovirus reactivation, can be fatal. DIHS/DRESS is distinct from other drug reactions, as it involves herpes virus reactivation and can lead to the subsequent development of autoimmune diseases. The association between herpesviruses and DIHS/DRESS is now well established, and DIHS/DRESS is considered to arise as a result of complex interactions between several herpesviruses and comprehensive immune responses, including drug-specific immune responses and antiviral immune responses, each of which may be mediated by distinct types of immune cells. It appears that both CD4 and CD8 T cells are involved in the pathogenesis of DIHS/DRESS but play distinct roles. CD4 T cells mainly initiate drug allergies in response to drug antigens, and then herpesvirus-specific CD8 T cells that target virus-infected cells emerge, resulting in tissue damage. Regulatory T-cell dynamics are also suggested to contribute to the diverse symptoms of DIHS/DRESS. However, the pathomechanisms of this complex disease remain largely unknown. In particular, how viral infections contribute to the pathogenesis of DIHS/DRESS and why autoimmune sequelae arise in DIHS/DRESS are yet to be elucidated. This review describes the clinical features of DIHS/DRESS, including the associated complications and sequelae, and discusses recent advances in our understanding of the immunopathogenic mechanisms of DIHS/DRESS.

Abstract
Agranulocytosis is a rare yet severe idiosyncratic adverse drug reaction to metamizole, an analgesic widely used in countries such as Switzerland and Germany. Notably, an underlying mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated and no predictive factors are known to identify at-risk patients. With the aim to identify genetic susceptibility variants to metamizole-induced agranulocytosis (MIA) and neutropenia (MIN), we conducted a retrospective multi-center collaboration including cases and controls from three European populations. Association analyses were performed using genome-wide genotyping data from a Swiss cohort (45 cases, 191 controls) followed by replication in two independent European cohorts (41 cases, 273 controls) and a joint discovery meta-analysis. No genome-wide significant associations (p < 1 × 10−7) were observed in the Swiss cohort or in the joint meta-analysis, and no candidate genes suggesting an immune-mediated mechanism were identified. In the joint meta-analysis of MIA cases across all cohorts, two candidate loci on chromosome 9 were identified, rs55898176 (OR = 4.01, 95%CI: 2.41–6.68, p = 1.01 × 10−7) and rs4427239 (OR = 5.47, 95%CI: 2.81–10.65, p = 5.75 × 10−7), of which the latter is located in the SVEP1 gene previously implicated in hematopoiesis. This first genome-wide association study for MIA identified suggestive associations with biological plausibility that may be used as a stepping-stone for post-GWAS analyses to gain further insight into the mechanism underlying MIA.

Abstract
Despite increasing interest in pharmacogenomics, and the potential benefits to improve patient care, implementation into clinical practice has not been widespread. Recently, there has been a drive to implement genomic medicine into the UK National Health Service (NHS), largely spurred on by the success of the 100,000 Genomes Project. The UK Pharmacogenetics and Stratified Medicine Network, NHS England and Genomics England invited experts from academia, the healthcare sector, industry and patient representatives to come together to discuss the opportunities and challenges of implementing pharmacogenomics into the NHS. This report highlights the discussions of the workshop to provide an overview of the issues that need to be considered to enable pharmacogenomic medicine to become mainstream within the NHS.

Abstract
Hypersensitivity reactions to drugs are often unpredictable and can be life threatening, underscoring a need for understanding their underlying mechanisms and risk factors. The extent to which germline genetic variation influences the risk of commonly reported drug allergies such as penicillin allergy remains largely unknown. We extracted data from the electronic health records of more than 600,000 participants from the UK, Estonian, and Vanderbilt University Medical Center's BioVU biobanks to study the role of genetic variation in the occurrence of self-reported penicillin hypersensitivity reactions. We used imputed SNP to HLA typing data from these cohorts to further fine map the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) association and replicated our results in 23andMe's research cohort involving a total of 1.12 million individuals. Genome-wide meta-analysis of penicillin allergy revealed two loci, including one located in the HLA region on chromosome 6. This signal was further fine-mapped to the HLA-B∗55:01 allele (OR 1.41 95% CI 1.33-1.49, p value 2.04 × 10-31) and confirmed by independent replication in 23andMe's research cohort (OR 1.30 95% CI 1.25-1.34, p value 1.00 × 10-47). The lead SNP was also associated with lower lymphocyte counts and in silico follow-up suggests a potential effect on T-lymphocytes at HLA-B∗55:01. We also observed a significant hit in PTPN22 and the GWAS results correlated with the genetics of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. We present robust evidence for the role of an allele of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) I gene HLA-B in the occurrence of penicillin allergy.

Abstract
A modern iteration of Occam's Razor posits that "the simplest explanation is usually correct." Coronavirus Disease 2019 involves widespread organ damage and uneven mortality demographics, deemed unexpected from what was originally thought to be "a straightforward respiratory virus." The simplest explanation is that both the expected and unexpected aspects of COVID-19 share a common mechanism. Silent hypoxia, atypical acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), stroke, olfactory loss, myocarditis, and increased mortality rates in the elderly, in men, in African-Americans, and in patients with obesity, diabetes, and cancer-all bear the fingerprints of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) imbalance, suggesting that RAS is the common culprit. This article examines what RAS is and how it works, then from that baseline, the article presents the evidence suggesting RAS involvement in the disparate manifestations of COVID-19. Understanding the deeper workings of RAS helps one make sense of severe COVID-19. In addition, recognizing the role of RAS imbalance suggests potential routes to mitigate COVID-19 severity.

Abstract
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrosis (TEN) or drug-induced liver injury (DILI) are severe drug-induced reactions, known as idiosyncratic drug reactions. It is believed that immune response can lead to these severe adverse drug reactions. Our previous analysis of the Japanese Spontaneous Drug Reaction database suggested that the onset of SJS/TEN and DILI was strongly associated with infection. Hence, we conducted a matched, nested case-control study to elucidate the association between concurrent infection and the onset of SJS/TEN or liver injury in patients prescribed antipyretic analgesics. We extracted 4 112 055 patients who were prescribed antipyretic analgesics between January 2014 and December 2015. Amongst them, 553 (0.01%) were diagnosed with SJS/TEN and 12 606 (0.3%) with liver injury. In a matched, nested case-control study, 131 and 2847 cases matched for SJS/TEN or liver injury, respectively. For each case, 3 controls were randomly matched with the case for age at index date and sex. In the conditional logistic regression analysis, there was a significant association between the combination of infection and antipyretic analgesics and the onset of SJS/TEN or liver injury (SJS/TEN: adjusted OR, 5.59; 95%CI, 2.01-15.51; liver injury: adjusted OR, 2.79; 95%CI, 2.24-3.46). Although it was not possible to distinguish whether the associations were caused by the infection or were a direct consequence of the antibiotic agents, our findings may help to increase awareness of the possibility of the increased onset of idiosyncratic drug reactions (SJS/TEN and liver injury) in antipyretic analgesic users because of infections.

Abstract
Background: To establish if an allergy towards all β-blockers, as a group, should be assumed, if an allergic reaction is observed while using one specific β-blocking agent. Case presentation: The non-selective β-blocker timolol caused a severe allergic ocular reaction in a non-atopic patient with advanced primary open-angle glaucoma. Results: A patch test confirmed timolol allergy. No allergic reaction to other anti-glaucomatous topical drugs was observed, and treatment with the selective β-blocker betaxolol was successfully initiated. Conclusion: Allergy to the non-selective β-blocker timolol does not necessarily predict allergy to the selective β-blocker betaxolol, and betaxolol should therefore not be excluded as an alternative treatment.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are associated with high global morbidity and mortality. Cutaneous T cell-mediated reactions classically occur more than 6 hours after drug administration and include life-threatening conditions such as toxic epidermal necrolysis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and hypersensitivity syndrome. Over the last 20 years, significant advances have been made in our understanding of the pathogenesis of DHRs with the identification of human leukocyte antigens as predisposing factors. This has led to the development of pharmacogenetic screening tests, such as HLA-B*57:01 in abacavir therapy, which has successfully reduced the incidence of abacavir hypersensitivity reactions. We have completed a PRISMA-compliant systematic review to identify genetic associations that have been reported in DHRs. In total, 105 studies (5554 cases and 123 548 controls) have been included in the review reporting genetic associations with carbamazepine (n = 31), other aromatic antiepileptic drugs (n = 24), abacavir (n = 11), nevirapine (n = 14), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (n = 11), dapsone (n = 4), allopurinol (n = 10), and other drugs (n = 5). The most commonly reported genetic variants associated with DHRs are located in human leukocyte antigen genes and genes involved in drug metabolism pathways. Increasing our understanding of genetic variants that contribute to DHRs will allow us to improve diagnosis, develop new treatments, and predict and prevent DHRs in the future.

Abstract
Delayed-type, T cell-mediated, drug hypersensitivity reactions are a serious unwanted manifestation of drug exposure that develops in a small percentage of the human population. Drugs and drug metabolites are known to interact directly and indirectly (through irreversible protein binding and processing to the derived adducts) with HLA proteins that present the drug-peptide complex to T cells. Multiple forms of drug hypersensitivity are strongly linked to expression of a single HLA allele, and there is increasing evidence that drugs and peptides interact selectively with the protein encoded by the HLA allele. Despite this, many individuals expressing HLA risk alleles do not develop hypersensitivity when exposed to culprit drugs suggesting a nonlinear, multifactorial relationship in which HLA risk alleles are one factor. This has prompted a search for additional susceptibility factors. Herein, we argue that immune regulatory pathways are one key determinant of susceptibility. As expression and activity of these pathways are influenced by disease, environmental and patient factors, it is currently impossible to predict whether drug exposure will result in a health benefit, hypersensitivity or both. Thus, a concerted effort is required to investigate how immune dysregulation influences susceptibility towards drug hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Abacavir hypersensitivity syndrome (ABC HSS) is strongly associated with carriage of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*57:01, which has a 100% negative predictive value for the development of ABC HSS. However, 45% of individuals who carry HLA-B*57:01 can tolerate ABC. We investigated immune and non-immune related genes in ABC HSS (n = 95) and ABC tolerant (n = 43) HLA-B*57:01 + patients to determine other factors required for the development of ABC HSS. Assignment of phenotype showed that ABC HSS subjects were significantly less likely than tolerants to carry only ERAP1 hypoactive trimming allotypes (p = 0.02). An altered self-peptide repertoire model by which abacavir activates T cells is in keeping with observation that endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) allotypes that favour efficient peptide trimming are more common in ABC HSS patients compared to patients who tolerate ABC. Independently, non-specific immune activation via soluble cluster of differentiation antigen 14 (sCD14) may also influence susceptibility to ABC HSS.

Abstract
Susceptibility to abacavir hypersensitivity (ABH) in HIV-1-positive patients is strongly linked to the carriage of HLA-B*57:01 and the potential mechanism includes drug-specific activation of cytokine producing CD8 T cells exclusively in individuals carrying HLA-B*57:01. Here, we report a detailed characterization of abacavir-induced functional response of CD8 T cells in HLA-B*57:01pos individuals. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) from HLA-B*57:01pos ABHpos and HLA-B*57:01neg ABHneg individuals were stimulated with abacavir. Multicolor flow cytometry was performed to assess the cytokine (IFNγ) production and degranulation (CD107a expression) after 6-18 hr culture and to enumerate proliferating CD4/CD8 T cells by culturing carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester-loaded PBMNCs for 7 days. CD8 T cells from HLA-B*57:01pos ABHpos individuals were multifunctional: proliferating, IFNγ producing, degranulating (CD107apos ), and both degranulating and IFNγ producing (CD107apos IFNγpos ). Degranulating CD8 T cells in general and both degranulating and IFNγ producing CD8 T cells in particular dominated abacavir-specific immune response. All functional responses were partially blocked by addition of HLA-B*57:01-reactive Bw4 mAb, but not by non-HLA-B*57:01-reactive Bw6 mAb. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that abacavir-specific CD8 T-cell-restricted immune response in HLA-B*57:01pos ABHpos HIV-1 patients has multiple effector and proliferating functions, where the primary effector response appears to be the release of cytolytic granules. The findings have implications for immunotherapy of HLA-related drug hypersensitivities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE An epidemic of antibiotic allergy is occurring. DATA SOURCES Articles published since 2008. STUDY SELECTIONS Articles on antibiotic allergy and stewardship. RESULTS A number of overlapping factors contribute. The most important factor is antibiotic overuse. Antibiotics are commonly used in situations in which no antibiotics are indicated. Thirty percent to 50% of ambulatory antibiotic use may be inappropriate. The duration of indicated antibiotic use is often excessive, which leads to more side effects. All antibiotic use can result in adverse reactions, and a fraction of these will be dutifully recorded as an allergy in the electronic health record (EHR). Most EHRs are not well structured to accurately convey information on expected side effects that have occurred, metabolic or other contraindications, dose-related or situational toxicities, personal preferences, clinically significant immunologically mediated hypersensitivity, and other reasons a particular patient may not want or should not be given a specific drug or type of drug in the future. As populations age, their accumulated baggage of reported antibiotic allergies increase. Suspected antibiotic allergy is rarely confirmed with appropriate testing or rechallenge. Patients then receive suboptimal antibiotic therapy and experience more side effects, treatment failures, and serious antibiotic-resistant infections. Reporting an antibiotic allergy in the EHR is nominally done to improve patient safety, but unfortunately, this is often not the actual result. CONCLUSION Audit and feedback, to help ensure adherence to Choosing Wisely recommendations and good antibiotic stewardship practices, can help reduce inappropriate antibiotic use. Restructuring EHRs to facilitate correct drug intolerance reporting, along with active antibiotic allergy delabeling programs, can help stem this epidemic.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions adversely affect treatment outcome, increase the length of patients' hospitalization, and limit the prescription options available to physicians. In addition, late stage drug attrition and the withdrawal of licensed drugs cost the pharmaceutical industry billions of dollars. This significantly increases the overall cost of drug development and by extension the price of licensed drugs. Drug hypersensitivity reactions are characterized by a delayed onset, and reactions tend to be more serious upon re-exposure. The role of drug-specific T-cells in the pathogenesis of drug hypersensitivity reactions and definition of the nature of the binding interaction of drugs with HLA and T-cell receptors continues to be the focus of intensive research, primarily because susceptibility is associated with expression of one or a small number of HLA alleles. This review critically examines the mechanisms of T-cell activation by drugs. Specific examples of drugs that activate T-cells via the hapten, the pharmacological interaction with immune receptors and the altered self-peptide repertoire pathways, are discussed. Furthermore, the impacts of drug metabolism, drug-protein adduct formation, and immune regulation on the development of drug antigen-responsive T-cells are highlighted. The knowledge gained from understanding the pathways of T-cell activation and susceptibility factors for drug hypersensitivity will provide the building blocks for the development of predictive in vitro assays that will prevent or help to minimize the incidence of these reactions in clinic.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) represent a major burden on the healthcare system since their diagnostic and management are complex. As they can be influenced by individual genetic background, it is conceivable that the identification of variants in genes potentially involved could be used in genetic testing for the prevention of adverse effects during drug administration. Most genetic studies on severe DHRs have documented HLA alleles as risk factors and some mechanistic models support these associations, which try to shed light on the interaction between drugs and the immune system during lymphocyte presentation. In this sense, drugs are small molecules that behave as haptens, and currently three hypotheses try to explain how they interact with the immune system to induce DHRs: the hapten hypothesis, the direct pharmacological interaction of drugs with immune receptors hypothesis (p-i concept), and the altered self-peptide repertoire hypothesis. The interaction will depend on the nature of the drug and its reactivity, the metabolites generated and the specific HLA alleles. However, there is still a need of a better understanding of the different aspects related to the immunological mechanism, the drug determinants that are finally presented as well as the genetic factors for increasing the risk of suffering DHRs. Most available information on the predictive capacity of genetic testing refers to abacavir hypersensitivity and anticonvulsants-induced severe cutaneous reactions. Better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of DHRs will help us to identify the drugs likely to induce DHRs and to manage patients at risk.

Abstract
We exploratively characterized T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires from occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis due to trichloroethylene (OMDT) patients to better understand the underlying pathological mechanism. We used a combination of multiplex-PCR, Illumina sequencing and IMGT/High V-QUEST to analyze the characteristics and polymorphisms of the TCR β-chain complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) gene in 10 OMDT cases and 10 trichloroethylene-exposed healthy tolerant controls. Compared with the tolerant controls, OMDT cases showed no significant difference in TCR repertoire diversity including repertoire breadth, highly expanded clone, and CDR3 length distribution. However, we observed several differences in TRBV/TRBJ usage and combination between the two groups, as well as some shared and unique T cell clones in the cases. The pilot study delineated some features of TCR repertoire in OMDT patients that warrant further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) can be divided into pharmacological ADRs (type A) and hypersensitivity reactions (type B). Type B reactions can be further subdivided into immediate (<1 h, urticaria, anaphylaxis) and delayed reactions (>1 h, variable manifestation like exanthema, hepatitis, cytopenias). Prevention of hypersensitivity is often still a challenge. METHODS Selective literature search in Medline and Google Scholar as well as research in ADR databases like OpenVigil or SIDER. RESULTS Laboratory tests ([specific] IgE, lymphocyte transformation test), histological examination, dermatological tests (prick tests, epicutaneous testing) and-under certain circumstances-provocation tests can be used for diagnostics. There are only a few pharmacogenetic biomarkers to predict hypersensitivity reactions. Currently, testing for defined HLA genes is mandatory before prescription of abacavir and before the use of carbamazepine in Han Chinese or Thai patients. Immediate discontinuation of the trigger is essential in all allergic hypersensitivity reactions. Immediate reactions are treated with antihistamines, glucocorticoids and occasionally with epinephrine. Delayed reactions are usually treated with glucocorticoids. CONCLUSION Careful, structured diagnostics in case of suspected hypersensitivity together with adequate documentation (allergy passport) is necessary in order to avoid incidents in patients receiving subsequent treatment. Consistent use of existing resources (diagnostics and documentation) can help to avoid hypersensitivity reactions or to rapidly recognize and treat them, respectively.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles have been implicated as risk factors for immune-mediated adverse drug reactions. The authors recently reported a strong association between HLA-A*32:01 and vancomycin-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Identification of individuals with the risk allele before or shortly after the initiation of vancomycin therapy is of great clinical importance to prevent morbidity and mortality, and improve drug safety and antibiotic treatment options. A prerequisite to the success of pharmacogenetic screening tests is the development of simple, robust, cost-effective single HLA allele test that can be implemented in routine diagnostic laboratories. In this study, the authors developed a simple, real-time allele-specific PCR for typing the HLA-A*32:01 allele. Four-hundred and fifty-eight DNA samples including 30 HLA-A*32:01-positive samples were typed by allele-specific PCR. Compared with American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics-accredited, sequence-based, high-resolution, full-allelic HLA typing, this assay demonstrates 100% accuracy, 100% sensitivity (95% CI, 88.43% to 100%), and 100% specificity (95% CI, 99.14% to 100%). The lowest limit of detection of this assay using PowerUp SYBR Green is 10 ng of template DNA. The assay demonstrates a sensitivity and specificity to differentiate the HLA-A*32:01 allele from closely related non-HLA-A*32 alleles and may be used in clinical settings to identify individuals with the risk allele before or during the course of vancomycin therapy.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) are based on distinct mechanisms and are clinically heterogeneous. Taking into account that also off-target activities of drugs may lead to stimulations of immune or inflammatory cells, three forms of DHR were discriminated: the allergic-immune mechanism relies on the covalent binding of drugs/chemicals to proteins, which thereby form new antigens, to which a humoural and/or cellular immune response can develop. In IgE-mediated drug allergies, a possible tolerance mechanism to the drug during sensitization and the need of a covalent hapten-carrier link for initiation, but not for elicitation of IgE-mediated reactions is discussed. The p-i ("pharmacological interaction with immune receptor") concept represents an off-target activity of drugs with immune receptors (HLA or TCR), which can result in unorthodox, alloimmune-like stimulations of T cells. Some of these p-i stimulations occur only in carriers of certain HLA alleles and can result in clinically severe reactions. The third form of DHR ("pseudo-allergy") is represented by drug interactions with receptors or enzymes of inflammatory cells, which may lead to their direct activation or enhanced levels of inflammatory products. Specific IgE or T cells are not involved. This classification is based on the action of drugs and is clinically useful, as it can explain differences in sensitizations, unusual clinical symptoms, dependence on drug concentrations, predictability and immunological and pharmacological cross-reactivities in DHR.

Abstract
Individuals differ substantially in their response to pharmacological treatment. Personalized medicine aspires to embrace these inter-individual differences and customize therapy by taking a wealth of patient-specific data into account. Pharmacogenomic constitutes a cornerstone of personalized medicine that provides therapeutic guidance based on the genomic profile of a given patient. Pharmacogenomics already has applications in the clinics, particularly in oncology, whereas future development in this area is needed in order to establish pharmacogenomic biomarkers as useful clinical tools. In this review we present an updated overview of current and emerging pharmacogenomic biomarkers in different therapeutic areas and critically discuss their potential to transform clinical care. Furthermore, we discuss opportunities of technological, methodological and institutional advances to improve biomarker discovery. We also summarize recent progress in our understanding of epigenetic effects on drug disposition and response, including a discussion of the only few pharmacogenomic biomarkers implemented into routine care. We anticipate, in part due to exciting rapid developments in Next Generation Sequencing technologies, machine learning methods and national biobanks, that the field will make great advances in the upcoming years towards unlocking the full potential of genomic data.

Abstract
Early hepatocyte death occurs in most liver injury cases and triggers liver inflammation, which in combination with other risk factors leads to the development of liver disease. However, the pathogenesis of early phase hepatocyte death remains poorly understood. Here, C57BL/6J mice were treated with the hepatotoxic drug flucloxacillin (FLUX) and the toll-like receptor 9 agonist CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) to reproduce the early phase of drug-induced hepatotoxicity and investigate its pathogenesis. C57BL/6J mice were treated with FLUX (100 mg/kg, gavage) alone or in combination with ODN (40 μg/mouse, intraperitoneally). Plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level was measured as a marker of hepatotoxicity. FLUX or ODN alone was insufficient to induce ALT elevation, whereas combination treatment with FLUX and ODN increased ALT levels 24 h after FLUX treatment and upregulated Fas ligand in natural killer T (NKT) cells and Fas in hepatocytes. FLUX induced mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), and pretreatment with ODN sensitized mitochondria to FLUX-induced MPT. The increase in ALT levels induced by ODN and FLUX co-treatment was suppressed in Fas ligand (gld/gld)-deficient mice and in mice deficient in a component of MPT pore opening (cyclophilin D-knockout mice). These results suggested that ODN activated the Fas/Fas ligand-mediated pathway in NKT cells and hepatocytes, which may predispose to FLUX-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and lead to early phase hepatocyte apoptosis. Taken together, these findings elucidate a potentially novel mechanism underlying drug-induced early phase hepatocyte death related to the Fas/Fas ligand death receptor pathway and mitochondrial dysfunction.
