Abstract
Background A limited pool of SNPs are linked to the development and severity of sarcoidosis, a systemic granulomatous inflammatory disease. By integrating genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) single nuclear polymorphisms (SNPs), we aimed to identify novel sarcoidosis SNPs potentially influencing the development of complicated sarcoidosis. Methods A GWAS (Affymetrix 6.0) involving 209 African-American (AA) and 193 European-American (EA, 75 and 51 complicated cases respectively) and publicly-available GWAS controls (GAIN) was utilized. Annotation of multi-tissue eQTL SNPs present on the GWAS created a pool of ~46,000 eQTL SNPs examined for association with sarcoidosis risk and severity (Logistic Model, Plink). The most significant EA/AA eQTL SNPs were genotyped in a sarcoidosis validation cohort (n=1034) and cross-validated in two independent GWAS cohorts. Results No single GWAS SNP achieved significance (p<1x10-8), however, analysis of the eQTL/GWAS SNP pool yielded 621 eQTL SNPs (p<10-4) associated with 730 genes that highlighted innate immunity, MHC Class II, and allograft rejection pathways with multiple SNPs validated in an independent sarcoidosis cohort (105 SNPs analyzed) (NOTCH4, IL27RA, BTNL2, ANXA11, HLA-DRB1). These studies confirm significant association of eQTL/GWAS SNPs in EAs and AAs with sarcoidosis risk and severity (complicated sarcoidosis) involving HLA region and innate immunity. Conclusion Despite the challenge of deciphering the genetic basis for sarcoidosis risk/severity, these results suggest that integrated eQTL/GWAS approaches may identify novel variants/genes and support the contribution of dysregulated innate immune responses to sarcoidosis severity.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a complex inflammatory fibrotic disease that affects multiple organ systems. It is characterized by the infiltration of lymphocytes and mononuclear phagocytes, which form non-caseating granulomas in affected organs. The lungs and intrathoracic lymph nodes are the most commonly affected organs. The underlying cause of sarcoidosis is unknown, but it is believed to occur in genetically predisposed individuals who are exposed to pathogenic organisms, environmental contaminants, or self and non-self-antigens. Recent research has suggested that the microbiome may play a role in the development of respiratory conditions, including sarcoidosis. Additionally, metabolomic studies have identified potential biomarkers for monitoring sarcoidosis progression. This review will focus on recent microbiome and metabolomic findings in sarcoidosis, with the goal of shedding light on the pathogenesis and possible diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Objective The degree to which sarcoidosis patients are affected by autoimmune diseases is poorly understood. Prior studies of autoimmune co-morbidities in sarcoidosis have focused on populations outside the USA or have been impeded by small sample sizes and limited scope. This case-control study evaluated the association between sarcoidosis and autoimmune diseases in a large, diverse cohort based in the USA. Methods We used data from the All of Us research programme to conduct a case-control study involving patients ≥18 years old, from 2018 to the present, diagnosed with sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis cases and age-, sex- and race-matched controls were identified in a 1:4 ratio. Autoimmune co-morbidities were compared between sarcoidosis patients and controls in univariable and multivariable analyses using logistic regression. The degree of association was measured using the odds ratio (OR). Results A total of 1408 sarcoidosis cases and 5632 controls were included in this study. Seven of 24 examined autoimmune diseases were significantly associated with sarcoidosis in our multivariable analysis (P < 0.05). The composite variable of any autoimmune disease was also significantly associated with sarcoidosis (OR = 2.29, P < 0.001). Conclusion We demonstrate an association between sarcoidosis and multiple autoimmune diseases in a large and diverse cohort based in the USA. These results underscore the need for careful screening of sarcoidosis patients for concomitant autoimmune disease.

Abstract
Autoimmune diseases, especially among young people in the US, are one of the leading causes of morbidity and death. The immune responses are the fundamental pathogenicity of autoimmune disorders. The equilibrium between stimulatory and inhibitory signals is critical for the stimulation, migration, survival, and T cell-related immune responses. The B7 family can substantially regulate T cell-mediated immune responses. Nevertheless, recent breakthroughs in immune checkpoint blockade in cancer immunotherapy have facilitated autoimmune diseases, especially among the prone populations. In the current study, we tried to concisely review the role of the B7 family in regulating immune reactions and the influence of immune checkpoint inhibitors on autoimmunity development.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Epidemiological and clinical observations as well as familial clustering support the existence of a genetic predisposition to sarcoidosis. In this article, we review the most recent findings in genetics of sarcoidosis and discuss how the identification of risk alleles may help advancing our understanding of disease etiology and development. RECENT FINDINGS Genetic studies of sarcoidosis phenotypes have identified novel and ancestry-specific associations. Gene-environment interaction studies highlighted the importance of integrating genetic information when assessing the relationship between sarcoidosis and environmental exposures. A case-control-family study revealed that the heritability of sarcoidosis is only 49%, suggesting the existence of additional important contributors to disease risk. The application of whole-exome sequencing has identified associations with disease activity and prognosis. Finally, gene expression studies of circulating immune cells have identified shared and unique pathways between sarcoidosis and other granulomatous diseases. SUMMARY Sarcoidosis genetic research has led to the identification of a number of associations with both sarcoidoses per se and disease phenotypes. Newer sequencing technologies are likely to increase the number of genetic variants associated with sarcoidosis. However, studying phenotypically and ethnically homogeneous patient subsets remains critically important regardless of the genetic approach used.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to provide a framework to distinguish Blau syndrome/Early Onset Sarcoidosis and Sarcoidosis clinically. We also discuss relevant differences in genetics, pathogenesis, and management of these diseases. RECENT FINDINGS Blau syndrome and Sarcoidosis share the characteristic histologic finding of noncaseating granulomas as well as some similar clinical characteristics; nevertheless, they are distinct entities with important differences between them. Blau syndrome and Early Onset Sarcoidosis are due to one of numerous possible gain-of-function mutations in NOD2, commonly presenting before age 5 with a triad of skin rash, arthritis, and uveitis. However, as more cases are reported, expanded clinical manifestations have been described. In systemic Sarcoidosis, there are numerous susceptibility genes that have been identified, and disease is thought to result from an environmental exposure in a genetically susceptible host. It most often presents with constitutional symptoms and pulmonary involvement and typically affects adolescents and adults. This paper reviews the similarities and differences between Blau syndrome and Sarcoidosis. We also discuss the importance of distinguishing between them, particularly with regard to prognosis and outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis is a multifactorial immune disorder with an uncertain origin. A single nucleotide polymorphism (G→A, rs2076530) in the butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) gene results in the formation of truncating protein. This study aimed to genotype the predisposition of the BTNL2 rs2076530 polymorphism in Iranian patients with sarcoidosis using the RFLP technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, 80 patients with sarcoidosis and 80 healthy individuals were included. The rs2076530 polymorphism of the BTNL2 gene was genotyped using the PCR-RFLP method by AvrII restriction enzyme and confirmed by DNA sequencing (Capillary electrophoresis 3130, ABI). RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference between proportions of patients with AA (47,5%) and controls (27.5%) (OR=2.38, 95%CI:1.23-4.61, P=0.009). In addition, a significant difference was observed in the frequency of the A allele (62.5%) in sarcoidosis (OR=2.14, 95%CI:1.37-3.35, P=0.001). A Bonferroni correction with P<0.0038 indicates a statistical difference for genotype AA (P=0.009). In an effective model, binary logistic regression analysis indicates a statistical association between AA genotype and sarcoidosis (P=0.018 with 60% prediction). Based on the gene analysis study using DNA sequencing, all of the mentioned mutations were seen via RFLP. CONCLUSION According to our findings, the BTNL2 rs2076530 A allele in the Iranian population is associated with susceptibility to sarcoidosis. This designed PCR-RFLP method for detecting SNPs is effective as DNA sequencing.

Abstract
Malaria is a life-threatening infectious disease, affecting over 250 million individuals worldwide each year, eradicating malaria has been one of the greatest challenges to public health for a century. Growing resistance to anti-parasitic therapies and lack of effective vaccines are major contributing factors in controlling this disease. However, the incomplete understanding of parasite interactions with host anti-malaria immunity hinders vaccine development efforts to date. Recent studies have been unveiling the complexity of immune responses and regulators against Plasmodium infection. Here, we summarize our current understanding of host immune responses against Plasmodium-derived components infection and mainly focus on the various regulatory mechanisms mediated by recent identified immune regulators orchestrating anti-malaria immunity.

Abstract
T cell costimulation is mediated by the interaction of a number of receptors and ligands present on the surface of the T cell and antigen-presenting cell, respectively. Stimulatory or inhibitory signals from these receptor-ligand interactions work in tandem to preserve immune homeostasis. BTNL2 is a type-1 membrane protein that provides inhibitory signal to T cells and plays an important role in several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Therefore, manipulation of the molecular interaction of BTNL2 with its putative receptor could provide strategies to restore immune homeostasis in these diseases. Hence, it is imperative to study the structural characteristics of this molecule, which will provide important insights into its function as well. In this study, the membrane-distal ectodomain of murine BTNL2 was expressed in bacteria as inclusion bodies, refolded in vitro and purified for functional and structural characterization. The domain is monomeric in solution as demonstrated by size-exclusion chromatography and analytical ultracentrifugation, and also binds to its putative receptor on naïve B cells and activated T cell subsets. Importantly, for the first time, we report the structure of BTNL2 as determined by solution NMR spectroscopy and also the picosecond-nanosecond timescale backbone dynamics of this domain. The N-terminal ectodomain of BTNL2, which was able to inhibit T cell function as well, exhibits distinctive structural features. The N-terminal ectodomain of BTNL2 has a significantly reduced surface area in the front sheet due to the non-canonical conformation of the CC' loop, which provides important insights into the recognition of its presently unknown binding partner.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a genetically complex systemic inflammatory disease that affects multiple organs. We present a GWAS of a Japanese cohort (700 sarcoidosis cases and 886 controls) with replication in independent samples from Japan (931 cases and 1,042 controls) and the Czech Republic (265 cases and 264 controls). We identified three loci outside the HLA complex, CCL24, STYXL1-SRRM3, and C1orf141-IL23R, which showed genome-wide significant associations (P < 5.0 × 10−8) with sarcoidosis; CCL24 and STYXL1-SRRM3 were novel. The disease-risk alleles in CCL24 and IL23R were associated with reduced CCL24 and IL23R expression, respectively. The disease-risk allele in STYXL1-SRRM3 was associated with elevated POR expression. These results suggest that genetic control of CCL24, POR, and IL23R expression contribute to the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis. We speculate that the CCL24 risk allele might be involved in a polarized Th1 response in sarcoidosis, and that POR and IL23R risk alleles may lead to diminished host defense against sarcoidosis pathogens. Akira Meguro et al. report a genome-wide association study for sarcoidosis—a systemic inflammatory disease—in the Japanese population. They identify 3 non-HLA loci with genome-wide significance, 2 of which have not been previously associated with sarcoidosis in any population.

Abstract
Pregnancy is a complex but well-arranged process, and a healthy fetus requires immune privilege and surveillance in the presence of paternally derived antigens. Maternal and fetal cells interact at the maternal–fetal interface. The upregulation and downregulation of maternal immunity executed by the leukocyte population predominantly depend on the activity of decidual natural killer cells and trophoblasts and are further modulated by a series of duplex signals. The B7 family, which consists of B7-1, B7-2, B7-H1, B7-DC, B7-H2, B7-H3, B7-H4, B7-H5, BTNL2, B7-H6, and B7-H7, is one of the most characterized and widely distributed signaling molecule superfamilies and conducts both stimulatory and inhibitory signals through separate interactions. In particular, the roles of B7-1, B7-2, B7-H1, and their corresponding receptors in the progression of normal pregnancy and some pregnancy complications have been extensively studied. Together with the TCR–MHC complex, B7 and its receptors play a critical role in cell proliferation and cytokine secretion. Depending on this ligand–receptor crosstalk, the balance between the tolerance and rejection of the fetus is perfectly maintained. This review aims to provide an overview of the current knowledge of the B7 family and its functions in regulating maternal–fetal immunity through individual interactions.

Abstract
Polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type 1, also known as autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED), is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder with multi-organ involvement. Besides for being predisposed to severe life-threatening infections, patients with APECED are also prone to organ impairment secondary to severe autoimmunity. As this is an autosomal recessive disorder, a biallelic mutation in the AIRE gene is responsible for APECED. The author presents a case of APECED with a single AIRE mutation. Whole exome sequencing identified a mutation in the BTNL2 gene that the author suggests may have contributed to the patient's presentation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between SNP in the BTNL2 gene region and the susceptibility to osteoarthritis of the knee. METHODS The blood samples of 103 knee osteoarthritis and 134 healthy subjects were collected. Four SNP in the BTNL2 gene region were selected, whole DNA was extracted using the QIAamp blood DNA purification mini reagent, the BTNL2 gene fragment was amplified and sequenced, and the genotype and corresponding frequency were counted. The results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS The four SNP (rs41521946, rs28362677, rs28362678, rs28362675) in the BTNL2 gene region were analyzed using a chi-square test (mutation heterozygote, homozygous, and normal homozygote), and the genotypes of the four mutation points were found to be statistically significant (P=0.003, 0.013, 0.005, and 0.045, respectively). Among the four SNP, the first three SNP were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to correlate them with knee osteoarthritis (P=0.003, 0.013, 0.005, respectively). rs28362675 was not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium but was associated with knee osteoarthritis (P=0.045), which might be smaller samples or an ethnicity differential allelic variation. The P values of the statistical analysis of age and height in the baseline data of both groups were less than 0.05. Considering the possible impact on the results, they were used as covariates in the analysis. The SNP of rs41521946 and rs28362677 showed a significant change in their associations with mutations, and the genotype P values of rs41521946 (AC+AA)/CC and rs2836267 (AG+AA)/GG were 0.002, 0.006, respectively. CONCLUSION Four SNP (rs41521946, rs28362677, rs28362678, rs28362675) in the BTNL2 gene region were significantly associated with knee osteoarthritis, and the target population might be significantly affected by rs28362675.

Abstract
Paediatric sarcoidosis is an extremely rare disease characterized by a granulomatous inflammation. The estimated incidence is 0.6-1.02/100,000 children, but in the absence of international registers, the disease is probably under-reported. Its pathophysiologic basis is not clearly understood but the current hypothesis is a combination of a genetic predisposition and an environmental exposure that could be either organic or mineral. Contrary to adult forms of the disease, general symptoms are often at the forefront at diagnosis. In its most frequent form, paediatric sarcoidosis is a multi-organ disorder affecting preferentially the lungs, the lymphatic system and the liver, but all organs can be affected. This review aims to provide an overview of current knowledge on sarcoidosis in children, providing a summary of the data available from cohort studies on the presentation, the management and the evolution of the disease in this specific population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies and meta-analyses have revealed the genetic background of ulcerative colitis (UC) by identifying common variants. However, these variants do not fully explain the disease variance in UC. To identify novel variants, we performed deep resequencing of UC-associated genes in Korean UC patients and subsequently investigated the functional roles of identified susceptibility genes. METHODS We performed targeted deep resequencing of 108 genes in 24 Korean UC patients and then performed association analysis with data from 126 healthy controls. We validated these variants using 2-stage replication studies including 793 UC patients and 783 controls. We performed in silico and pathway analyses and functional analyses. RESULTS The combined analysis including 2 replication studies identified 6 novel susceptibility loci and reconfirmed 10 previously reported loci. Among the novel single nucleotide variants (SNVs), rs10035653 in C5orf55 (P = 2.08 × 10-3; OR = 1.50), rs41417449 in BTNL2 (P = 1.27 × 10-2; OR = 1.32), rs3117099 in HCG23 (P = 9.98 × 10-6; OR = 1.40), rs7192 in HLA-DRA (P = 6.95 × 10-9; OR = 1.57), and rs3744246 in ORMDL3 (P = 2.21 × 10-2; OR = 1.21) were identified as causal variants, whereas rs713669 in IL17REL (P = 2.69 × 10-2; OR = 0.84) as a protective variant for UC. When correcting multiple testing, 3 novel SNVs (rs41417449 in BTNL2, rs3744246 in ORMDL3, and rs713669 in IL17REL) and 4 previously reported SNVs did not reach a statistical significance. Functional study suggested that SNVs of BTNL2 and C5orf55 exacerbated the inflammatory response both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS This study identified 3 novel susceptibility loci and validated 6 previously reported SNVs for UC through deep resequencing in Koreans and revealed the functional roles of BTNL2 and C5orf55.

Abstract
Background: The association between NOD2/CARD15 (nucleotide binding oligomerisation domain containing 2) gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to sarcoidosis have been extensively investigated in recent years. However, the results from previous studies remain controversial. To assess the association of NOD2/CARD15 polymorphisms and sarcoidosis susceptibility, we performed a meta-analysis. Methods: PubMed, Embase, CNKI and Wanfang databases were examined for all relevant studies up until 8th October 2016. In all, 968 cases and 1549 controls in eight case-control studies were included which mainly consisted of Caucasian participants. The relevant data were extracted and the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) calculated to assess the strength of any associations. Statistical analyses were calculated using STATA12.0 software and Revman5.3 software. The associations between NOD2/CARD15 SNP rs2066844, rs2066845, rs2066847, rs1861759 polymorphisms and the risk of sarcoidosis were evaluated in allelic, dominant, recessive and additive models. Results: The pooled data showed that the NOD2/CARD15 rs2066845 polymorphism was associated with sarcoidosis susceptibility in allelic model (C vs. G, OR=1.86, 95% CI: 1.14-3.04, P=0.01), dominant model (GC + CC vs. GG, OR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.11-3.05, P=0.02) and additive model (GC vs. GG, OR=1.79, 95% CI: 1.08-2.97, P=0.02). However, the results suggested that the rs2066844, rs2066847 and rs1861759 polymorphisms might not be associated with a risk of sarcoidosis. Conclusions: This meta-analysis indicated that the 'C' allele of SNP rs2066845 may be a risk factor for sarcoidosis, especially in Caucasians, whilst rs2066844, rs2066847 and rs1861759 may not be associated with a risk of developing sarcoidosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis (OMIM 181000) is a multi-systemic granulomatous disorder of unknown origin. Despite multiple genome-wide association (GWAS) studies, no major pathogenic pathways have been identified to date. To find out relevant sarcoidosis predisposing genes, we searched for de novo and recessive mutations in 3 young probands with sarcoidosis and their healthy parents using a whole-exome sequencing (WES) methodology. METHODS From the SARCFAM project based on a national network collecting familial cases of sarcoidosis, we selected three families (trios) in which a child, despite healthy parents, develop the disease before age 15 yr. Each trio was genotyped by WES (Illumina HiSEQ 2500) and we selected the gene variants segregating as 1) new mutations only occurring in affected children and 2) as recessive traits transmitted from each parents. The identified coding variants were compared between the three families. Allelic frequencies and in silico functional results were analyzed using ExAC, SIFT and Polyphenv2 databases. The clinical and genetic studies were registered by the ClinicalTrials.gov - Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS) ( https://clinicaltrials.gov ) receipt under the reference NCT02829853 and has been approved by the ethical committee (CPP LYON SUD EST - 2 - REF IRB 00009118 - September 21, 2016). RESULTS We identified 37 genes sharing coding variants occurring either as recessive mutations in at least 2 trios or de novo mutations in one of the three affected children. The genes were classified according to their potential roles in immunity related pathways: 9 to autophagy and intracellular trafficking, 6 to G-proteins regulation, 4 to T-cell activation, 4 to cell cycle and immune synapse, 2 to innate immunity. Ten of the 37 genes were studied in a bibliographic way to evaluate the functional link with sarcoidosis. CONCLUSIONS Whole exome analysis of case-parent trios is useful for the identification of genes predisposing to complex genetic diseases as sarcoidosis. Our data identified 37 genes that could be putatively linked to a pediatric form of sarcoidosis in three trios. Our in-depth focus on 10 of these 37 genes may suggest that the formation of the characteristic lesion in sarcoidosis, granuloma, results from combined deficits in autophagy and intracellular trafficking (ex: Sec16A, AP5B1 and RREB1), G-proteins regulation (ex: OBSCN, CTTND2 and DNAH11), T-cell activation (ex: IDO2, IGSF3), mitosis and/or immune synapse (ex: SPICE1 and KNL1). The significance of these findings needs to be confirmed by functional tests on selected gene variants.

Abstract
Granulomas are organized aggregates of macrophages, often with characteristic morphological changes, and other immune cells. These evolutionarily ancient structures form in response to persistent particulate stimuli-infectious or noninfectious-that individual macrophages cannot eradicate. Granulomas evolved as protective responses to destroy or sequester particles but are frequently pathological in the context of foreign bodies, infections, and inflammatory diseases. We summarize recent findings that suggest that the granulomatous response unfolds in a stepwise program characterized by a series of macrophage activations and transformations that in turn recruit additional cells and produce structural changes. We explore why different granulomas vary and the reasons that granulomas are protective and pathogenic. Understanding the mechanisms and role of granuloma formation may uncover new therapies for the multitude of granulomatous diseases that constitute serious medical problems while enhancing the protective function of granulomas in infections.

T-cell immunology in sarcoidosis: Disruption of a delicate balance between helper and regulatory T-cells. Curr Opin Pulm Med 2017; 22:476-83.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Although the aetiology of sarcoidosis is not yet completely understood, immunological changes within the T-cell compartment are characteristic for an exaggerated antigen-driven immune response. In this review, we describe the most recent findings on T-cell subset responses and regulation in sarcoidosis. We discuss how future immunological research can advance the field to unravel pathobiological mechanisms of this intriguingly complex disease. RECENT FINDINGS Research into the field of T-cell plasticity has recently challenged the long-held T helper type 1 (Th1) paradigm in sarcoidosis and striking parallels with autoimmune disorders and common variable immunodeficiency were recognized. For instance, it was demonstrated that Th17.1-cells rather than Th1-cells are responsible for the exaggerated IFN-γ production in pulmonary sarcoidosis. Furthermore, impaired regulatory T-cell function and alterations within the expression of co-inhibitory receptors that control T-cell responses, such as PD-1, CTLA-4 and BTNL2, raise new questions regarding T-cell regulation in pulmonary sarcoidosis. SUMMARY It becomes increasingly clear that Th17(.1)-cells and regulatory T-cells are key players in sarcoidosis T-cell immunology. New findings on plasticity and co-inhibitory receptor expression by these subsets help build a more comprehensive model for T-cell regulation in sarcoidosis and will finally shed light on the potential of new treatment modalities.

Abstract
Background The occurrence of familial forms of sarcoidosis (OMIM 181100) suggests a genetic predisposition. The involvement of butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) gene (rs2076530 variant) has to be investigated. Results The study performed independent analyses of BTNL2 polymorphism, clinical phenotypes, and outcomes in familial vs. sporadic presentations in 256 sporadic and 207 familial cases from 140 families. The logistic multivariate model showed that a young age at diagnosis and the combination of lung and skin involvement at diagnosis may distinguish sporadic from familial sarcoidosis (p = 0.016 and p = 0.041). We observed also that Sarcoid Clinical Activity Classification (SCAC) profiles were significantly different between familial and sporadic cases (p = 0.0497). Variant rs2076530 was more frequent in patients than in controls (OR = 2.02; 95% CI: [1.32–3.09]) but showed no difference between sporadic and familial cases and no difference according to the clinical phenotype or the outcome. Conclusion Despite a significant difference in BTNL2 polymorphism between sarcoid patients and controls, there was no such difference between familial and sporadic sarcoidosis cases and no correlation between BTNL2 polymorphism and disease severity or outcome. Thus, BTNL2 difference cannot be considered as a key marker for disease classification or patient management.

Abstract
Current hypotheses on the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis assume that it is induced by a nondegradable antigen inducing immune reactions, which are mediated by a panel of immune cells of the innate and adoptive immune system. This immune reaction leads to an accumulation of immune cells that is mainly alveolar macrophages, T cells, and neutrophils in the lung. As the antigen persists and cannot be eliminated, the ongoing immune reaction results in granuloma formation and remodeling of the lung. The current review aims to elucidate the different roles of the cellular players in the immunopathogenesis of sarcoidosis.
