Abstract
INTRODUCTION Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is the most common autoinflammatory disease that has mainly been treated with colchicine since 1972. A significant portion of patients do not respond to colchicine and require further treatment, mainly IL-1β antagonists such as anakinra, canakinumab and rilonacept as IL-1β has a crucial role in pathogenesis of FMF. This review summarizes the current approach to treating FMF and discovers the pharmacological and clinical utility of IL-1 blocking agents based on accumulated evidence with a focus on anakinra. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on anakinra treatment in FMF. The data obtained from case reports, case series, retrospective studies and a Phase III trial are analyzed. Safety and efficacy profiles of anakinra are discussed. EXPERT OPINION Anakinra is the cheapest anti-IL-1 agent used in the treatment of colchicine-resistant FMF. It is shown to be effective and safe when used in adjunct to colchicine however its short half-life and potential to cause injection site reactions limit its use.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the interleukin-1 (IL-1) pathway leads to immune diseases that can result in chronic tissue and organ inflammation. Although IL-1 blockade has shown promise in ameliorating these symptoms and improving patients' quality of life, there is an urgent need for more effective, long-lasting treatments. We developed a lentivirus (LV)-mediated gene transfer strategy using transplanted autologous hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) as a source of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) for systemic delivery to tissues and organs. Transplantation of mouse and human HSPCs transduced with an IL-1RA-encoding LV ensured stable IL-1RA production while maintaining the clonogenic and differentiation capacities of HSPCs in vivo. We examined the efficacy of cell-mediated IL-1RA delivery in three models of IL-1-dependent inflammation, for which treatment hindered neutrophil recruitment in an inducible model of gout, prevented systemic and multi-tissue inflammation in a genetic model of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, and reduced disease severity in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model of multiple sclerosis. Our findings demonstrate HSPC-mediated IL-1RA delivery as a potential therapeutic modality that can be exploited to suppress tissue and organ inflammation in diverse immune-related diseases involving IL-1-driven inflammation.

Abstract
Sensorineural hearing loss is the most common type of hearing loss in adults and occurs due to damage of the inner ear caused by a range of factors including ageing, excessive noise, toxins, and cancer. Auto-inflammatory disease is also a cause of hearing loss and there is evidence that inflammation could contribute to hearing loss in other conditions. Within the inner ear there are resident macrophage cells that respond to insults and whose activation correlates with damage. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-molecular pro-inflammatory protein complex that forms in activated macrophages and may contribute to hearing loss. The aim of this article is to discuss the evidence for the NLRP3 inflammasome and associated cytokines as potential therapeutic targets for sensorineural hearing loss in conditions ranging from auto-inflammatory disease to tumour-induced hearing loss in vestibular schwannoma.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) and Schnitzler syndrome (SchS) are autoinflammatory diseases that present with urticaria-like rashes. CAPS is characterized by periodic or persistent systemic inflammation caused by the dysfunction of the NLRP3 gene. With the advent of IL-1-targeted therapies, the prognosis of CAPS has improved remarkably. SchS is considered an acquired form of autoinflammatory syndrome. Patients with SchS are adults of relatively older age. The pathogenesis of SchS remains unknown and is not associated with the NLRP3 gene. Previously, the p.L265P mutation in the MYD88 gene, which is frequently detected in Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) with IgM gammopathy, was identified in several cases of SchS. However, because persistent fever and fatigue are symptoms of WM that require therapeutic intervention, it is a challenge to determine whether these patients truly had SchS or whether advanced WM was misidentified as SchS. There are no established treatments for SchS. The treatment algorithm proposed with the diagnostic criteria is to use colchicine as first-line treatment, and systemic administration of steroids is not recommended due to concerns about side effects. In difficult-to-treat cases, treatment targeting IL-1 is recommended. If targeted IL-1 treatment does not improve symptoms, the diagnosis should be reconsidered. We hope that the efficacy of IL-1 therapy in clinical practice will serve as a stepping stone to elucidate the pathogenesis of SchS, focusing on its similarities and differences from CAPS.

Abstract
The cochlea encodes sound stimuli and transmits them to the central nervous system, and damage to sensory cells and synapses in the cochlea leads to hearing loss. The inner ear was previously considered to be an immune privileged organ to protect the auditory organ from reactions with the immune system. However, recent studies have revealed the presence of resident macrophages in the cochlea, especially in the spiral ligament, spiral ganglion, and stria vascularis. The tissue-resident macrophages are responsible for the detection, phagocytosis, and clearance of cellular debris and pathogens from the tissues, and they initiate inflammation and influence tissue repair by producing inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Insult to the cochlea can activate the cochlear macrophages to initiate immune responses. In this review, we describe the distribution and functions of cochlear macrophages in noise-induced hearing impairment and age-related hearing disabilities. We also focus on potential therapeutic interventions concerning hearing loss by modulating local immune responses.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a rare inherited autoinflammatory disease caused by gain-of-function mutations in the NLRP3 gene, with a genotype-phenotype correlation. The clinical presentation of each mutation has been previously studied. However, very few studies have reported on the clinical characteristics and treatment effectiveness across different generations within a family with the same mutation. A detailed investigation of family members of patients with CAPS may help in the appropriate diagnosis and treatment of undiagnosed CAPS. Herein, we report a 2-year-old boy (proband), his father, and his grandmother who presented with several symptoms of CAPS, such as persistently positive inflammatory reactions and hearing impairment. All three patients had the same pathogenic mutation in the NLRP3 gene (c.1049C > T (p.Thr350Met) heterozygous mutation) and were diagnosed with CAPS. With canakinumab treatment, the laboratory data of all three patients improved, the proband and father's skin rash disappeared, and his grandmother's arthropathy improved. The proband's hearing also showed slight improvement but not in his father or grandmother. Among the various non-specific symptoms associated with CAPS, chronic ocular hyperaemia is a finding that can be easily identified by non-ophthalmologists. Diagnosis of CAPS should be considered when eye symptoms are present in a combination of hyperinflammatory response, arthropathy, or skin symptoms. Thorough family history records, physical examinations, and close collaboration between paediatricians and adult rheumatologists are important for prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of inherited autoinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Background Major depressive disorder is characterized by not only monoamine neurotransmitters deficiencies but also persistent neuroinflammation. The complement system is an attractive therapeutic target for various inflammation-related diseases due to its early activation in inflammatory processes. Results In the present study, the dynamic alteration of complement C3 and its receptor C3aR during the occurrence of depression and the mechanism of astrocyte-microglia IL-1R/C3/C3aR on synaptic pruning were investigated. The proteomic analysis firstly showed that chronic stress caused an elevation of C3. GO analysis indicated that complement system-mediated synaptic pruning signaling was involved in depression. The dynamic observation indicated that C3/C3aR was activated in the early onset and throughout the course of depression induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and chronic stress. In contrast, C3aR blockade inhibited the hyperactivation of microglial APT2/DHHC7 palmitoylation cycle, which mediated the translocation of STAT3 and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Meanwhile, C3aR blockade also attenuated the synaptic pruning and enhanced the synaptogenesis in the prefrontal cortex of mice. Moreover, the blockade of IL-1R/NF-κB signaling pathway reduced the release of C3 from astrocyte. Conclusions The current study demonstrates that astrocyte-microglia IL-1R/C3/C3aR activation causes the abnormal synaptic pruning in depression, and suggests that the activation of complement C3/C3aR may be particularly helpful in predicting the onset stage of depression.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article reviews the current literature regarding the pathogenesis of immune-mediated sensorineural hearing loss, utilizes previously published single-nucleus transcriptional profiles to characterize cytokine and cytokine receptor expression in the adult stria vascularis cell types to support immune system interaction with the stria vascularis and reviews the current literature on immunomodulatory agents currently being used for hearing-restoration treatment. RECENT FINDINGS The literature review highlights recent studies that elucidate many cytokines and immune markers, which have been linked to various immune-mediated disease processes that have been observed with sensorineural hearing loss within the stria vascularis and highlights recent publications studying therapeutic targets for these pathways. SUMMARY This review highlights the current literature regarding the pathogenesis of immune-mediated hearing loss. The role of cochlear structures in human temporal bones from patients with immune-mediated sensorineural hearing loss are highlighted, and we review cytokine signalling pathways relevant to immune-mediated sensorineural hearing loss and localize genes encoding both cytokine and cytokine receptors involved in these pathways. Finally, we review immunomodulatory therapeutics in light of these findings and point to opportunities for the application of novel therapeutics by targeting these signalling pathways.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) represent a rare and heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation and a broad range of clinical manifestations. The most common symptoms involve recurrent fevers, musculoskeletal symptoms, and serositis; however, AIDs can also lead to life-threatening complications, such as macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and systemic AA amyloidosis. Typical monogenic periodic fever syndromes include cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), mevalonate kinase deficiency/hyper IgD syndrome (MKD/HIDS), and familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). However, a number of other clinical entities, such as systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD), Kawasaki disease (KD) and idiopathic recurrent pericarditis (IRP), display similar phenotypical and immunological features to AIDs. All these diseases are pathophysiologicaly characterized by dysregulation of the innate immune system and the central pathogenic role is attributed to the IL-1 cytokine family (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-1Ra, IL-18, IL-36Ra, IL-36α, IL-37, IL-36β, IL-36g, IL-38, and IL-33). Therefore, reasonable therapeutic approaches aim to inhibit these cytokines and their pathways. To date, several anti-IL-1 therapies have evolved. Each drug differs in structure, mechanism of action, efficacy for the treatment of selected diseases, and side effects. Most of the available data regarding the efficacy and safety of IL-1 inhibitors are related to anakinra, canakinumab, and rilonacept. Other promising therapeutics, such as gevokizumab, tadekinig alfa, and tranilast are currently undergoing clinical trials. In this review, we provide sophisticated and up-to-date insight into the therapeutic uses of different IL-1 inhibitors in monogenic periodic fever syndromes.

Little C, Cosetti MK. A Narrative Review of Pharmacologic Treatments for COVID-19: Safety Considerations and Ototoxicity. Laryngoscope 2021; 131:1626-1632. [PMID: 33491234 PMCID: PMC8014300 DOI: 10.1002/lary.29424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2020] [Revised: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this review is to summarize evidence-based data regarding the ototoxic effects of potential COVID-19 therapeutics to treat patients suffering from SARS-CoV-2. METHODS Medications under investigation as novel therapeutics to treat COVID-19 were identified using the search term coronavirus therapeutics, COVID therapeutics, and SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics on ClinicalTrials.gov and the PubMed Database. A literature review was performed using the PubMed Database for each proposed COVID-19 therapeutic to identify relevant articles. Search criteria included Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and key word search terms for ototoxicity, vestibulotoxicity, hearing disorders, and vertigo. RESULTS Six proposed COVID-19 therapeutics were identified as possessing ototoxic side effects including chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, lopinavir-ritonavir, interferon, ribavirin, and ivermectin. CONCLUSIONS Available evidence suggests that ototoxic effects may be improved or mitigated by stopping the offending agent. Recognition of hearing loss, tinnitus, or imbalance/vertigo is therefore crucial to facilitate early intervention and prevent long-term damage. Hospitals should consider the inclusion of audiologic monitoring protocols for patients receiving COVID-19 therapeutics with known ototoxicity, especially in high-risk patient groups such as the elderly and hearing impaired.

Clin Rheumatol 2020; 40:393-397.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) is a highly debilitating disorder, which is characterized by unregulated interleukin-1β production driven by autosomal dominantly inherited mutations in the NLRP3 gene. Patients with CAPS often present with early-onset episodes of fever and rash. These patients also present with variable systemic signs and symptoms, such as arthritis, sensorineural hearing loss, chronic aseptic meningitis, and skeletal abnormalities, but minimal gastrointestinal symptoms. Recently, effective therapies for CAPS targeted against interleukin-1 have become available. We report a case of a young Japanese woman with CAPS who developed inflammatory bowel disease during canakinumab therapy. The patient had colostomy after intestinal perforation and changed canakinumab to infliximab. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of inflammatory bowel disease secondary to CAPS complicated by gastrointestinal symptoms and arthritis which canakinumab could not control. Patients with CAPS who have symptoms that cannot be controlled by canakinumab should be considered for possible co-morbidities.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) represents an increasingly recognized disease group entity, with varied presentations. CAPS includes 3 clinical entities, namely, familial cold-induced autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS; MIM #120100), Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS; MIM #191900) and chronic inflammatory neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA; MIM #607115); which share several overlapping clinical features. These patients often present with early-onset episodes of fever and rash, and variable systemic signs and symptoms, making it a great mimicker of other systemic autoimmune diseases. The episodes are transient and related to exposure to cold temperature and worsen in the winter season. We hereby present a case presenting with recurrent seasonal fever and rash, diagnosed as FCAS/ MWS overlap based on clinical signs and symptoms and positive testing for NLRP3 gene mutation. We also discuss the clinical presentation and complications of CAPS, chiefly FCAS and MWS, along with the previously described pediatric cases of CAPS. We tried to review the complexities of management of such patients, including the genetic diagnosis and the role of biological therapy. Based on the review of the literature, given the evident broad spectrum of symptoms and signs, use of next-generation sequencing can help in prompt diagnosis and early initiation of biological agents, which may play a great role in reducing the complications that these patients may experience in the long run.

Abstract
AutoInflammatory Diseases (AIDs) are a group of innate immune system disorders characterized by sterile inflammation without evidence of pathogenic autoantibodies or auto-reactive T lymphocytes. An expanding spectrum of genes and molecular pathways are associated with AIDs. Inflammasomopathies are secondary to dysregulation of multi-protein complexes, called inflammasomes, leading to an excessive maturation and secretion of IL1β and IL18. Patients present with persistent or recurrent systemic inflammation, abdominal and chest pain, skin rashes and are sensible to IL1 inhibitors. Unfolded proteins response causes a small number of AIDs that we propose to call immuno-proteinopathies, characterized by recurrent fevers and deep tissues inflammation. Other inflammatory conditions can occur in case of abnormalities of actin polymerization and the term of immuno-actinopathies is proposed. Generalized pustular psoriasis is a marker of autoinflammation mainly affecting the keratinocytes. Specific treatment targeting the p40 subunit of IL12 and IL23 or IL-17 are usually effective. Granulomatous inflammation characterizes AIDs related to NOD2 signaling defects. Defects in the ubiquitin-proteasome system cause a group of relopathies and some interferonopathies related to defect of the proteasome function (CANDLE syndrome). Gain of function of proteins regulating the production of type I interferons lead to severe inflammatory conditions, called interferonopathies. The JAK/STAT inhibitors are usually effective in these latter conditions. In conclusions, the identification of the main intracellular pathways involved in rare monogenic AIDs allows not only the proper classification of different conditions, but also highlight a pivotal role of possible novel therapeutic targets for the future.

Unveiling the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Anti-Interleukin-1 Treatment in Monogenic and Multifactorial Autoinflammatory Diseases. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20081898.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) are heterogeneous disorders characterized by dysregulation in the inflammasome, a large intracellular multiprotein platform, leading to overproduction of interleukin-1(IL-1)β that plays a predominant pathogenic role in such diseases. Appropriate treatment is crucial, also considering that AIDs may persist into adulthood with negative consequences on patients' quality of life. IL-1β blockade results in a sustained reduction of disease severity in most AIDs. A growing experience with the human IL-1 receptor antagonist, Anakinra (ANA), and the monoclonal anti IL-1β antibody, Canakinumab (CANA), has also been engendered, highlighting their efficacy upon protean clinical manifestations of AIDs. Safety and tolerability have been confirmed by several clinical trials and observational studies on both large and small cohorts of AID patients. The same treatment has been proposed in refractory Kawasaki disease, an acute inflammatory vasculitis occurring in children before 5 years, which has been postulated to be autoinflammatory for its phenotypical and immunological similarity with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Nevertheless, minor concerns about IL-1 antagonists have been raised regarding their employment in children, and the development of novel pharmacological formulations is aimed at minimizing side effects that may affect adherence to treatment. The present review summarizes current findings on the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ANA and CANA for treatment of AIDs and Kawasaki vasculitis with a specific focus on the pediatric setting.
