Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The identification of extra-pulmonary symptoms plays a crucial role in diagnosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). These symptoms not only indicate autoimmune diseases but also hint at potential genetic disorders, suggesting a potential overlap between genetic and autoimmune origins. RECENT FINDINGS Genetic factors contributing to ILD are predominantly associated with telomere (TRG) and surfactant-related genes. While surfactant-related gene mutations typically manifest with pulmonary involvement alone, TRG mutations were initially linked to syndromic forms of pulmonary fibrosis, known as telomeropathies, which may involve hematological and hepatic manifestations with variable penetrance. Recognizing extra-pulmonary signs indicative of telomeropathy should prompt the analysis of TRG mutations, the most common genetic cause of familial pulmonary fibrosis. Additionally, various genetic diseases causing ILD, such as alveolar proteinosis, alveolar hemorrhage, or unclassifiable pulmonary fibrosis, often present as part of syndromes that include hepatic, hematological, or skin disorders. SUMMARY This review explores the main genetic conditions identified over the past two decades.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) in adults and children (chILD) are a heterogeneous group of lung disorders leading to inflammation, abnormal tissue repair and scarring of the lung parenchyma often resulting in respiratory failure and death. Inherited factors directly cause, or contribute significantly to the risk of developing ILD, so called familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF), and monogenic forms may have a poor prognosis and respond poorly to current treatments. Specific, variant-targeted or precision treatments are lacking. Clinical trials of repurposed drugs, anti-fibrotic medications and specific treatments are emerging but for many patients no interventions exist. We convened an expert working group to develop an overarching framework to address the existing research gaps in basic, translational, and clinical research and identified areas for future development of preclinical models, candidate medications and innovative clinical trials. In this Position Paper, we summarise working group discussions, recommendations, and unresolved questions concerning precision treatments for FPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several rare surfactant-related gene (SRG) variants associated with interstitial lung disease are suspected to be associated with lung cancer, but data are missing. We aimed to study the epidemiology and phenotype of lung cancer in an international cohort of SRG variant carriers. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of all adults with SRG variants in the OrphaLung network and compared lung cancer risk with telomere-related gene (TRG) variant carriers. RESULTS We identified 99 SRG adult variant carriers (SFTPA1 (n=18), SFTPA2 (n=31), SFTPC (n=24), ABCA3 (n=14) and NKX2-1 (n=12)), including 20 (20.2%) with lung cancer (SFTPA1 (n=7), SFTPA2 (n=8), SFTPC (n=3), NKX2-1 (n=2) and ABCA3 (n=0)). Among SRG variant carriers, the odds of lung cancer was associated with age (OR 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08), smoking (OR 20.7, 95% CI 6.60-76.2) and SFTPA1/SFTPA2 variants (OR 3.97, 95% CI 1.39-13.2). Adenocarcinoma was the only histological type reported, with programmed death ligand-1 expression ≥1% in tumour cells in three samples. Cancer staging was localised (I/II) in eight (40%) individuals, locally advanced (III) in two (10%) and metastatic (IV) in 10 (50%). We found no somatic variant eligible for targeted therapy. Seven cancers were surgically removed, 10 received systemic therapy, and three received the best supportive care according to their stage and performance status. The median overall survival was 24 months, with stage I/II cancers showing better survival. We identified 233 TRG variant carriers. The comparative risk (subdistribution hazard ratio) for lung cancer in SRG patients versus TRG patients was 18.1 (95% CI 7.1-44.7). CONCLUSIONS The high risk of lung cancer among SRG variant carriers suggests specific screening and diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The benefit of regular computed tomography scan follow-up should be evaluated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung biopsy remains the gold standard in the diagnosis of fibrotic interstitial lung disease (F-ILD), but there is a growing appreciation of the role of pathogenic gene variants in telomere and surfactant protein genes, especially in familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF). Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a rare disease that can coexist with different patterns of F-ILD, including FPF. It can be progressive and often leads to respiratory failure and death. This study tested the hypothesis that genetic testing goes beyond radiological and histological findings in PPFE and other F-ILD further informing clinical decision-making for patients and affected family members by identifying pathological gene variants in telomere and surfactant protein genes. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 70 patients with F-ILD in the setting of FPF or premature lung fibrosis. Six out of 70 patients were diagnosed with PPFE based on radiological or histological characteristics. All patients underwent telomere length evaluation in peripheral blood by Flow-FISH or genetic testing using a customized exome-based panel that included telomere and surfactant protein genes associated with lung fibrosis. RESULTS Herein, we identified six individuals where radiographic or histopathological analyses of PPFE were linked with telomere biology disorders (TBD) or variants in surfactant protein genes. Each case involved individuals with either personal early-onset lung fibrosis or a family history of the disease. Assessments of telomere length and genetic testing offered insights beyond traditional radiological and histopathological evaluations. CONCLUSION Detecting anomalies in TBD-related or surfactant protein genes can significantly refine the diagnosis and treatment strategies for individuals with PPFE and other F-ILD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Variants in surfactant genes SFTPC or ABCA3 are responsible for interstitial lung disease (ILD) in children and adults, with few studies in adults. METHODS We conducted a multicentre retrospective study of all consecutive adult patients diagnosed with ILD associated with variants in SFTPC or ABCA3 in the French rare pulmonary diseases network, OrphaLung. Variants and chest computed tomography (CT) features were centrally reviewed. RESULTS We included 36 patients (median age: 34 years, 20 males), 22 in the SFTPC group and 14 in the ABCA3 group. Clinical characteristics were similar between groups. Baseline median FVC was 59% ([52-72]) and DLco was 44% ([35-50]). An unclassifiable pattern of fibrosing ILD was the most frequent on chest CT, found in 85% of patients, however with a distinct phenotype with ground-glass opacities and/or cysts. Nonspecific interstitial pneumonia and usual interstitial pneumonia were the most common histological patterns in the ABCA3 group and in the SFTPC group, respectively. Annually, FVC and DLCO declined by 1.87% and 2.43% in the SFTPC group, respectively, and by 0.72% and 0.95% in the ABCA3 group, respectively (FVC, p = 0.014 and DLCO , p = 0.004 for comparison between groups). Median time to death or lung transplantation was 10 years in the SFTPC group and was not reached at the end of follow-up in the ABCA3 group. CONCLUSION SFTPC and ABCA3-associated ILD present with a distinct phenotype and prognosis. A radiologic pattern of fibrosing ILD with ground-glass opacities and/or cysts is frequently found in these rare conditions.

Abstract
In sporadic idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (sIPF) and pulmonary fibrosis caused by a mutation in telomere (TRG-PF) or surfactant related genes (SRG-PF), there are a number of aberrant cellular processes known that can lead to fibrogenesis. We investigated whether RNA expression of genes involved in these processes differed between sIPF, TRG-PF, and SRG-PF and whether expression levels were associated with survival. RNA expression of 28 genes was measured in lung biopsies of 26 sIPF, 17 TRG-PF, and 6 SRG-PF patients. Significant differences in RNA expression of TGFBR2 (p = 0.02) and SFTPA2 (p = 0.02) were found between sIPF, TRG-PF, and SRG-PF. Patients with low (

Abstract
Background Interstitial lung disease associated with genetic disorders of the surfactant system is a rare entity in adults that can lead to lung transplantation. Our objective was to describe the outcome of these patients after lung transplantation. Methods We conducted a retrospective, multicentre study, on adults who underwent lung transplantation for such disease in the French lung transplant centres network, from 1997 to 2018. Results 20 patients carrying mutations in SFTPA1 (n=5), SFTPA2 (n=7) or SFTPC (n=8) were included. Median interquartile range (IQR) age at diagnosis was 45 (40-48) years, and median (IQR) age at lung transplantation was 51 (45-54) years. Median overall survival after transplantation was 8.6 years. Two patients had a pre-transplant history of lung cancer, and two developed post-transplant lung cancer. Female gender and a body mass index <25 kg·m-2 were significantly associated with a better prognosis, whereas transplantation in high emergency was associated with a worst prognosis. Conclusions Lung transplantation in adults with interstitial lung disease associated with genetic disorders of surfactant system may be a valid therapeutic option. Our data suggest that these patients may have a good prognosis. Immunosuppressive protocol was not changed for these patients, and close lung cancer screening is needed before and after transplantation.

Abstract
Rationale: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a rare, irreversible, and progressive disease of the lungs. Common genetic variants, in addition to nongenetic factors, have been consistently associated with IPF. Rare variants identified by candidate gene, family-based, and exome studies have also been reported to associate with IPF. However, the extent to which rare variants, genome-wide, may contribute to the risk of IPF remains unknown. Objectives: We used whole-genome sequencing to investigate the role of rare variants, genome-wide, on IPF risk. Methods: As part of the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine Program, we sequenced 2,180 cases of IPF. Association testing focused on the aggregated effect of rare variants (minor allele frequency ⩽0.01) within genes or regions. We also identified individual rare variants that are influential within genes and estimated the heritability of IPF on the basis of rare and common variants. Measurements and Main Results: Rare variants in both TERT and RTEL1 were significantly associated with IPF. A single rare variant in each of the TERT and RTEL1 genes was found to consistently influence the aggregated test statistics. There was no significant evidence of association with other previously reported rare variants. The SNP heritability of IPF was estimated to be 32% (SE = 3%). Conclusions: Rare variants within the TERT and RTEL1 genes and well-established common variants have the largest contribution to IPF risk overall. Efforts in risk profiling or the development of therapies for IPF that focus on TERT, RTEL1, common variants, and environmental risk factors are likely to have the largest impact on this complex disease.

Abstract
Genetic predisposition to pulmonary fibrosis has been confirmed by the discovery of several gene mutations that cause pulmonary fibrosis. Although genetic sequencing of familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF) cases is embedded in routine clinical practice in several countries, many centres have yet to incorporate genetic sequencing within interstitial lung disease (ILD) services and proper international consensus has not yet been established. An international and multidisciplinary expert Task Force (pulmonologists, geneticists, paediatrician, pathologist, genetic counsellor, patient representative and librarian) reviewed the literature between 1945 and 2022, and reached consensus for all of the following questions: 1) Which patients may benefit from genetic sequencing and clinical counselling? 2) What is known of the natural history of FPF? 3) Which genes are usually tested? 4) What is the evidence for telomere length measurement? 5) What is the role of common genetic variants (polymorphisms) in the diagnostic workup? 6) What are the optimal treatment options for FPF? 7) Which family members are eligible for genetic sequencing? 8) Which clinical screening and follow-up parameters may be considered in family members? Through a robust review of the literature, the Task Force offers a statement on genetic sequencing, clinical management and screening of patients with FPF and their relatives. This proposal may serve as a basis for a prospective evaluation and future international recommendations.

Abstract
Childhood interstitial lung diseases (chILDs) are rare and heterogeneous diseases with significant morbidity and mortality. An accurate and quick aetiological diagnosis may contribute to better management and personalised treatment. On behalf of the European Respiratory Society Clinical Research Collaboration for chILD (ERS CRC chILD-EU), this review summarises the roles of the general paediatrician, paediatric pulmonologists and expert centres in the complex diagnostic workup. Each patient's aetiological chILD diagnosis must be reached without prolonged delays in a stepwise approach from medical history, signs, symptoms, clinical tests and imaging, to advanced genetic analysis and specialised procedures including bronchoalveolar lavage and biopsy, if necessary. Finally, as medical progress is fast, the need to revisit a diagnosis of "undefined chILD" is stressed.

Monogenic disorders associated with IPF affect two pathways: telomere maintenance, accounting for approximately 10% of all patients with IPF, and surfactant biology, responsible for 1%-3% of cases and often co-occurring with lung cancer. We examined the prevalence of rare variants in five surfactant-related genes, SFTPA1, SFPTA2, SFTPC, ABCA3, and NKX2-1, that were previously linked to lung disease in whole genome sequencing data from 431 patients with IPF. We identified functionally deleterious rare variants in SFTPA2 with a prevalence of 1.3% in individuals with and without a family history of IPF. All individuals had no personal history of lung cancer, but substantial bronchiolar metaplasia was noted on lung explants and biopsies. Five patients had novel missense variants in NKX2-1, but the contribution to disease is unclear. In general, patients were younger and had longer telomeres compared with the majority of patients with IPF suggesting that these features may be useful for identifying this subset of patients in the clinic. These data suggest that SFTPA2 variants may be more common in unselected IPF cohorts and may manifest in the absence of personal/family history of lung cancer or IPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease (ILD) caused by an immunological reaction to repeated inhalational exposure to antigens. The etiology and exact immunopathology are poorly understood. Autoimmunity overlapping with HP has been described but the role of concomitant autoimmunity in the clinical course and outcome of the HP is not clearly established. In this study, we examined patients diagnosed with HP and compare them to patients with concomitant HP and autoimmunity. METHODS Patients were retrospectively screened from a single-center ILD registry. Patients > 18 years with an established multidisciplinary diagnosis of HP were included in the study. Patients with HP without autoimmune features and patients with HP with autoimmune features (HPAF) were assessed. We compared the demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcomes between the two groups. We used a Cox proportional hazards model to compare lung transplant-free survival outcomes of patients with HPAF to those with non-HPAF HP patients. RESULTS Of 73 patients with HP, 43 were diagnosed with HPAF. Patients with HPAF had a higher echocardiographic probability of pulmonary hypertension as compared to non-HPAF HP patients [48.8 vs 23.3%, p = 0.028, Crude odds ratio (cOR) = 3.14]. Symptomatically, those with HPAF reported a higher prevalence of arthritis as compared to non-HPAF HP (20.9 vs 3.3%, p = 0.040, cOR = 7.68). No significant differences between pulmonary function tests, oxygen requirements, mortality, and lung transplantation rates were found between the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference in transplant-free survival (p = 0.836). CONCLUSION Patients with HPAF had a higher echocardiographic probability of pulmonary hypertension as compared to patients with non-HPAF HP. The clinical characteristics and outcomes did not differ between the two groups and concomitant autoimmunity among the HP group did not portend a poorer prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unraveling the genetic background in a significant proportion of patients with both sporadic and familial IPF provided new insights into the pathogenic pathways of pulmonary fibrosis. AIM The aim of the present study is to overview the clinical significance of genetics in IPF. PERSPECTIVE It is fascinating to realize the so-far underestimated but dynamically increasing impact that genetics has on aspects related to the pathophysiology, accurate and early diagnosis, and treatment and prevention of this devastating disease. Genetics in IPF have contributed as no other in unchaining the disease from the dogma of a "a sporadic entity of the elderly, limited to the lungs" and allowed all scientists, but mostly clinicians, all over the world to consider its many aspects and "faces" in all age groups, including its co-existence with several extra pulmonary conditions from cutaneous albinism to bone-marrow and liver failure. CONCLUSION By providing additional evidence for unsuspected characteristics such as immunodeficiency, impaired mucus, and surfactant and telomere maintenance that very often co-exist through the interaction of common and rare genetic variants in the same patient, genetics have created a generous and pluralistic yet unifying platform that could lead to the understanding of the injurious and pro-fibrotic effects of many seemingly unrelated extrinsic and intrinsic offending factors. The same platform constantly instructs us about our limitations as well as about the heritability, the knowledge and the wisdom that is still missing.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignancies in males globally, and its pathogenesis is significantly related to androgen. As one of the important treatments for prostate cancer, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) inhibits tumor proliferation by controlling androgen levels, either surgically or pharmacologically. However, patients treated with ADT inevitably develop biochemical recurrence and advance to castration-resistant prostate cancer which has been reported to be associated with androgen biosynthetic and catabolic pathways. Thus, gene expression profiles and clinical information of PCa patients were collected from TCGA, MSKCC, and GEO databases for consensus clustering based on androgen biosynthetic and catabolic pathways. Subsequently, a novel prognostic model containing 13 genes (AFF3, B4GALNT4, CD38, CHRNA2, CST2, ADGRF5, KLK14, LRRC31, MT1F, MT1G, SFTPA2, SLC7A4, TDRD1) was constructed by univariate cox regression, lasso regression, and multivariate cox regression. Patients were divided into two groups based on their risk scores: high risk (HS) and low risk (LS), and survival analysis was used to determine the difference in biochemical recurrence-free time between the two. The results were validated on the MSKCC dataset and the GEO dataset. Functional enrichment analysis revealed some pivotal pathways that may have an impact on the prognosis of patients including the CDK-RB-E2F axis, G2M checkpoint, and KRAS signaling. In addition, somatic mutation, immune infiltration, and drug sensitivity analyses were performed to further explore the characteristics of HS and LS groups. Besides, two potential therapeutic targets, BIRC5 and RHOC, were identified by us in prostate cancer. These results indicate that the prognostic model may serve as a predictive tool to guide clinical treatment and provide new insight into the basic research in prostate cancer.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases represent a heterogeneous and wide group of diseases in which factors leading to disease initiation and progression are not fully understood. Recent evidence suggests that the lung microbiome might influence the pathogenesis and progression of interstitial lung diseases. In recent years, the utilization of culture-independent methodologies has allowed the identification of complex and dynamic communities of microbes, in patients with interstitial lung diseases. However, the potential mechanisms by which these changes may drive disease pathogenesis and progression are largely unknown. The aim of this review is to discuss the role of the altered lung microbiome in several interstitial lung diseases. Untangling the host–microbiome interaction in the lung and airway of interstitial lung disease patients is a research priority. Thus, lung dysbiosis is a potentially treatable trait across several interstitial lung diseases, and its proper characterization and treatment might be crucial to change the natural history of these diseases and improve outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rare diseases (RDs) affect nearly 3 million people in France and at least 26-30 million people in Europe. These diseases, which represent a major medical concern, are mainly of genetic origin, often chronic, progressive, degenerative, life threatening and disabling, accounting for more than one third of all deaths occurring during infancy. In this context, there are needs for coordinated information on RDs at national/international levels, based on high quality, interoperable and sharable data. The main objective of the RaDiCo (Rare Disease Cohorts) program, coordinated by Inserm, was the development of RD e-cohorts via a national platform. The cohort projects were selected through a national call in 2014. The e-cohorts are supported by an interoperable platform, equivalent to an infrastructure, constructed on the "cloud computing" principle and in compliance with the European General Data Protection Regulation. It is dedicated to allow a continuous monitoring of data quality and consistency, in line with the French Health Data Hub. RESULTS Depending on cohorts, the objectives are to describe the natural history of the studied RD(s), identify the underlying disease genes, establish phenotype-genotype correlations, decipher their pathophysiology, assess their societal and medico-economic impact, and/or identify patients eligible for new therapeutic approaches. Inclusion of prevalent and incident cases started at the end of 2016. As of April 2021, 5558 patients have been included within 13 RD e-cohorts covering 67 diseases integrated in 10 European Reference Networks and contributing to the European Joint Program on RDs. Several original results have been obtained in relation with the secondary objectives of the RaDiCo cohorts. They deal with discovery of new disease genes, assessment of treatment management, deciphering the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnostic approaches, genotype-phenotype relationships, development and validation of questionnaires relative to disease burden, or methodological aspects. CONCLUSION RaDiCo currently hosts 13 RD e-cohorts on a sharable and interoperable platform constructed on the "cloud computing" principle. New RD e-cohorts at the European and international levels are targeted.

Abstract
Comorbidities are frequently observed in patients suffering from pulmonary diseases due to shared risk factors and intricate interactions between various organ systems. This article aims to characterize the effects of selected diseases of the respiratory system on the cardiovascular system and kidneys. Advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often leads to a prognostically unfavorable increased pressure in the pulmonary circulation. In this respect treatment of these patients is primarily aimed at the underlying pulmonary disease and targeted treatment of the pulmonary hypertension should only be carried out according to invasive diagnostics and in an individualized manner. So far, the fact that there is a substantial overlap between COPD and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has been completely ignored, which should be considered in the diagnostic procedure. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has several unfavorable effects on the cardiovascular system and has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The established treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been shown to improve daytime sleepiness and the quality of life; however, an effect of CPAP on the occurrence of cardiovascular events, especially in asymptomatic patients, has so far not been demonstrated in randomized trials. Peripheral edema is frequently observed in patients suffering from chronic hypercapnia, which can be explained by several pathophysiological mechanisms, including pulmonary vasoconstriction and a direct effect of the hypercapnia on renal blood flow. Apart from the administration of diuretics, recompensation of such patients always requires treatment of the hypercapnia by noninvasive ventilation.

Abstract
Surfactant protein C (SP-C) is one of four surfactant proteins produced by type II pneumocytes. Mutations in surfactant protein A are strongly associated with development of lung cancer. Mutations in the SP-C gene are rare and are associated with interstitial lung disease in the pediatric age group. We describe two patients with SP-C mutations who developed lung cancer. Both patients had concurrent interstitial lung disease, although the clinical phenotype was variable. In both cases, mutations were in translated region of the SP-C gene; one in the BRICHOS domain and the other in the transmembrane domain. Our paper suggests that patients with SP-C mutations can be at increased risk for the development of lung cancer, and it's reasonable to follow them routinely.

Abstract
Genetic mechanisms are now recognized as rare causes of neonatal lung disease. Genes potentially responsible for neonatal lung disease include those encoding proteins important in surfactant function and metabolism, transcription factors important in lung development, proteins involved in ciliary assembly and function, and various other structural and immune regulation genes. The phenotypes of infants with genetic causes of neonatal lung disease may have some features that are difficult to distinguish clinically from more common, reversible causes of lung disease, and from each other. Multigene panels are now available that can allow for a specific diagnosis, providing important information for treatment and prognosis. This review discusses genes in which abnormalities are known to cause neonatal lung disease and their associated phenotypes, and advantages and limitations of genetic testing.
