Paradoxical Psoriasis in Patients Receiving Therapy with Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitors: Potential Pathogenic Mechanisms and the Role of Genetic Factors. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7018. [PMID: 39000125 PMCID: PMC11241744 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25137018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
TNF inhibitors (TNFi) have revolutionized the therapeutic management of various chronic immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. Despite their known benefits, these therapies are related to paradoxical adverse effects (PAEs), including paradoxical psoriasis (PP). Although the underlying mechanism remains somewhat unclear, some theories suggest that genetic factors, particularly certain single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), may play an important role. The present review aimed to research and analyze recent findings regarding the pathomechanisms involved in the appearance of PP and the association between various genetic factors and PP in individuals treated with TNFi. We performed a literature search and found that certain genes (IL23R, TNF, FBXL19, CTLA4, SLC12A8, TAP1) are strongly associated with the occurrence of PP in pediatric and adult patients during therapy with TNFi. The identification of the specific SNPs involved in the appearance of PP and other PAEs in patients treated with TNFi for various diseases and in different populations may later favor the recognition of those patients at a high risk of developing such adverse effects and could guide personalized therapeutic strategies in future years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND some patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with antiTNF develop drug-induced psoriasis (antiTNF-IP). Several therapeutic strategies are possible. AIMS to assess the management of antiTNF-IP in IBD, and its impact in both diseases. METHODS patients with antiTNF-IP from ENEIDA registry were included. Therapeutic strategy was classified as continuing the same antiTNF, stopping antiTNF, switch to another antiTNF or swap to a non-antiTNF biologic. IP severity and IBD activity were assessed at baseline and 16, 32 and 54 weeks. RESULTS 234 patients were included. At baseline, antiTNF-IP was moderate-severe in 60 % of them, and IBD was in remission in 80 %. Therapeutic strategy was associated to antiTNF-IP severity (p < 0.001). AntiTNF-IP improved at week 54 with all strategies, but continuing with the same antiTNF showed the worst results (p = 0.042). Among patients with IBD in remission, relapse was higher in those who stopped antiTNF (p = 0.025). In multivariate analysis, stopping antiTNF, trunk and palms and soles location were associated with antiTNF-IP remission; female sex and previous surgery in Crohn´s disease with IBD relapse. CONCLUSION skin lesions severity and IBD activity seem to determine antiTNF-IP management. Continuing antiTNF in mild antiTNF-IP, and swap to ustekinumab or switch to another antiTNF in moderate-severe cases, are suitable strategies.

Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 174:116568. [PMID: 38599062 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116568] [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: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Adalimumab (ADA) is an anti-inflammatory antibody that has FDA approval as a systemic medication for treating noninfectious uveitis. It is also provisionally being investigated as an intravitreal injection for various retinal conditions. This study aimed to assess the effect of ADA on apoptotic, inflammatory, and fibrogenesis gene expression at mRNA and protein levels in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. RPEs were treated with serial concentrations of ADA (0.5x, x, 2x, and 4x; [x = 250 µg/mL]) for 24 hours. MTT assay was done and the mRNA and protein expressions were quantified using real-time PCR and ELISA assay, respectively. The mRNA levels of IL-1b and IL-6 were significantly increased in ADA-treated RPEs at 0.5x and x concentrations. However, the increase in cytokine secretion was observed only in IL-1b at x concentration. TGF-β was significantly upregulated in the 0.5x and 4x doses of ADA both at mRNA and protein levels. MTT assay, along with an unchanged BCL-2/BAX ratio confirmed the safety of ADA on RPEs at all studied concentrations. In conclusion, despite its safety, the 2x concentration of ADA was the only dose that did not ignite the expression of any of the studied inflammatory and fibrogenesis genes. This dosage, which is roughly equal to 2 mg intravitreal dose in a clinical setting, might be referred to as a reference starting point for future in-vivo studies in ocular conditions.

Abstract
Introduction Immunotherapy with biologics targeting programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) is highly effective in the treatment of various malignancies. Nevertheless, it is frequently responsible for unexpected cutaneous manifestations, including psoriasis-like dermatitis. The pathogenesis of anti-PD-1-induced psoriasis has yet to be clarified, even though it is plausible that some innate and adaptive immunity processes are in common with canonical psoriasis. The genetic predisposition to psoriasis of patients could also be a contributing factor. Here, we investigated the immunological and genetic profiles of two patients with metastatic melanoma and one patient affected by lung cancer, who developed severe psoriasis after receiving anti-PD-1 nivolumab therapy. Methods The immune patterns of the three patients were compared with those detectable in classical, chronic plaque-type psoriasis or paradoxical psoriasis induced by anti-TNF-α therapy, mostly sustained by adaptive and innate immunity processes, respectively. Therefore, immunohistochemistry and mRNA analyses of innate and adaptive immunity molecules were conducted on skin biopsy of patients. Genetic analysis of polymorphisms predisposing to psoriasis was carried out by NGS technology. Results We found that anti-PD-1-induced psoriasis showed immunological features similar to chronic psoriasis, characterized by the presence of cellular players of adaptive immunity, with abundant CD3+, CD8+ T cells and CD11c+ dendritic cells infiltrating skin lesions, and producing IL-23, IL-6, TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-17. On the contrary, a lower number of innate immunity cells (BDCA2+ plasmacytoid dendritic cells, CD15+ neutrophils, CD117+ mast cells) and reduced IFN-α/β, lymphotoxin (LT)-α/β, were observed in anti-PD-1-induced psoriasis lesions, as compared with anti-TNF-α-induced paradoxical psoriasis. Importantly, the disintegrin and metalloprotease domain containing thrombospondin type 1 motif-like 5 (ADAMTSL5) psoriasis autoantigen was significantly upregulated in psoriasis lesions of anti-PD-1-treated patients, at levels comparable with chronic plaque-type psoriasis. Finally, NGS analysis revealed that all patients carried several allelic variants in psoriasis susceptibility genes, such as HLA-C, ERAP1 and other genes of the major psoriasis susceptibility PSORS1 locus. Discussion Our study showed that adaptive immunity predominates over innate immunity in anti-PD-1-induced psoriasis lesions, consistently with the local ADAMTSL5 overexpression. The presence of numerous SNPs in psoriasis susceptibility genes of the three patients also suggested their strong predisposition to the disease.

Abstract
Scleritis is an inflammation of the episcleral and scleral tissues, characterized by injection in both superficial and deep episcleral vessels. When only episcleral tissue is involved, it is referred to as episcleritis. Episcleritis is mainly idiopathic but may be secondary to an underlying rheumatologic disease. Despite being rare, drug-associated episcleritis and scleritis should also be included in the differential diagnosis. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitors are generally well-tolerated, but etanercept, in particular, has the potential to cause paradoxical adverse reactions including ocular inflammations, such as uveitis, scleritis, and ocular myositis. Etanercept differs in its mechanism of action from other TNF-α inhibitors as it acts as a decoy receptor, and this may partly explain the more frequently reported etanercept-associated ocular inflammation. Etanercept may also be ineffective in preventing ocular inflammation. However, the dechallenge and rechallenge phenomena have proven there is a causative link between etanercept and new-onset ocular inflammation. We report a case of a 15-year-old boy with enthesitis-related arthritis and familial Mediterranean fever who presented with episcleritis and blepharitis while receiving etanercept treatment and subsequently showed dechallenge and rechallenge reactions. Therefore, physicians should also be aware that episcleritis should be considered a paradoxical adverse reaction to etanercept and can occur in pediatric patients. We also reviewed the English literature to provide an overview and evaluate intervention options.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease with heterogenous clinical phenotypes characterized by non-necrotizing granuloma formation in affected organs. Most disease either remits spontaneously or responds to corticosteroids and second-line disease-modifying therapies. These medications are associated with numerous toxicities that can significantly impact patient quality-of-life and often limit their long-term use. Additionally, a minority of patients experience chronic, progressive disease that proves refractory to standard treatments. To date, there are limited data to guide the selection of alternative third-line medications for these patients. This review will outline the pathobiological rationale behind current and emerging therapeutic agents for refractory or drug-intolerant sarcoidosis and summarize the existing clinical evidence in support of their use.

[PMID: 37629636 PMCID: PMC10455403 DOI: 10.3390/life13081779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
TNF-α inhibitors (TNFis) have revolutionized the treatment of certain chronic immune-mediated diseases, being widely and successfully used in rheumatic inflammatory diseases, and have also proved their efficacy in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, among the side effects of these agents are the so-called paradoxical effects. They can be defined as the appearance or exacerbation of a pathological condition that usually responds to this class of drug while treating a patient for another condition. A wide range of paradoxical effects have been reported including dermatological, intestinal and ophthalmic conditions. The causal mechanism of occurrence may implicate an imbalance of cytokines, but is still not fully understood, and remains a matter of debate. These paradoxical reactions often show improvement on discontinuation of the medication or on switching to another TNFi, but in some cases it is a class effect that could lead to the withdrawal of all anti-TNF agents. Close monitoring of patients treated with TNFis is necessary in order to detect paradoxical reactions. In this study we focus on reviewing IBD occurrence as a paradoxical effect of TNFi therapy in patients with rheumatological diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis).

[PMID: 36807301 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Ustekinumab has been proven to be effective for treatment of patients with Crohn's disease; however, 30-40% of patients have been reported to lose clinical response within 2 years. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab and identify predictors of short-term and long-term efficacy in Crohn's disease. METHODS Patients with Crohn's disease receiving their first ustekinumab infusion in our hospital between June 2017 and September 2020 were prospectively enrolled. Concentrations of serum cytokines and chemokines were measured using a multiplex bead array assay. RESULTS Fifty-nine Crohn's disease patients were enrolled in this study. Among 34 clinically active patients, 38.2% achieved a clinical response at week 8. None of the assayed factors were associated with short-term clinical response. Cumulative persistence rates of ustekinumab were 77.6% at 1 year and 58.9% at 2 years. Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that Harvey-Bradshaw Index scores at baseline, concomitant immunomodulator treatment, and concentrations of interferon gamma-induced protein-10, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and interleukin (IL)-1RA, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-8 were significantly associated with loss of efficacy. Multivariate Cox regression analysis found that biologic naïve status (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.1191, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.02458-0.5774) and MCP-1 concentrations (HR: 1.038, 95% CI: 1.015-1.062) were significantly and associated with loss of sustained efficacy for ustekinumab treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that pretreatment serum MCP-1 analysis, combined with a history of biologic use, could be a novel biomarker for predicting the long-term efficacy of ustekinumab in patients with Crohn's disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The manifestations of uveitis are well established in axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA), but not in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). We aimed to assess, in a large unselected series of PsA: (A) the frequency and clinical features of uveitis; (B) its association with PsA activity, the impact of disease and functional disability, and (C) its relationship with the biological treatment. In addition, a literature review was performed. METHODS Retrospective longitudinal study of PsA patients from a single referral hospital. PsA was classified according to the CASPAR criteria, and uveitis was diagnosed by experienced ophthalmologists. RESULTS We studied 406 patients with PsA (46.3±12.3 years). Uveitis was observed in 20 (4.9%). Uveitis was acute in all cases, anterior (80%), unilateral (80%) and recurrent (50%). Patients with uveitis had a higher prevalence of HLA-B27 (45% vs 7.5%, p<0.0001), sacroiliitis on MRI (25% vs 8.3% p=0.027), ocular surface pathology (10% vs 0.8%, p=0.021), and median PsA impact of Disease Score (5.9 (2.1-6.8) vs 1.25 (0.0-3.0), p=0.001) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (4 (1.6-5) vs 1.0 (0.0-3.5), p=0.01) than patients without uveitis.The exposure adjusted incidence rate (episodes/100 patients-year) of uveitis before versus after biological treatment decreased with anti-TNFα monoclonal antibodies (56.3 vs 9.4) and increased with etanercept (ETN) (6.03 vs 24.2) and secukinumab (SECU) (0 vs 50) (including only one patient treated in the last two cases). CONCLUSION The prevalence of uveitis in patients with PsA was about 5%. The pattern was similar to that observed in ax-SpA. Uveitis was associated with a worse quality of life and greater functional disability. The uveitis exposure adjusted incidence rate decreased with anti-TNFα monoclonal antibodies and increased with ETN and SECU.

World J Gastroenterol 2022; 28:3825-3837.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have demonstrated that dysfunction of the intestinal barrier is a significant contributing factor to the development of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). A stable intestinal mucosa barrier functions as a major anatomic and functional barrier, owing to the balance between intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation and apoptosis. There is some evidence that calcium overload may trigger IEC apoptosis and that calcineurin (CaN)/nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) signaling might play an important role in calcium-mediated apoptosis.
AIM To investigate the potential mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of Qingyi decoction (QYD) in SAP.
METHODS A rat model of SAP was created via retrograde infusion of sodium deoxycholate. Serum levels of amylase, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6, D-lactic acid, and diamine oxidase (DAO); histological changes; and apoptosis of IECs were examined in rats with or without QYD treatment. The expression of the two subunits of CaN and NFAT in intestinal tissue was measured via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. For in vitro studies, Caco-2 cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and QYD serum, and then cell viability and intracellular calcium levels were detected.
RESULTS Retrograde infusion of sodium deoxycholate increased the severity of pancreatic and intestinal pathology and the levels of serum amylase, TNF-α, and IL-6. Both the indicators of intestinal mucosa damage (D-lactic acid and DAO) and the levels of IEC apoptosis were elevated in the SAP group. QYD treatment reduced the serum levels of amylase, TNF-α, IL-6, D-lactic acid, and DAO and attenuated the histological findings. IEC apoptosis associated with SAP was ameliorated under QYD treatment. In addition, the protein expression levels of the two subunits of CaN were remarkably elevated in the SAP group, and the NFATc3 gene was significantly upregulated at both the transcript and protein levels in the SAP group compared with the control group. QYD significantly restrained CaN and NFATc3 gene expression in the intestine, which was upregulated in the SAP group. Furthermore, QYD serum significantly decreased the LPS-induced elevation in intracellular free Ca2+ levels and inhibited cell death.
CONCLUSION QYD can exert protective effects against intestinal mucosa damage caused by SAP and the protective effects are mediated, at least partially, by restraining IEC apoptosis via the CaN/NFATc3 pathway.

Abstract
Anti-TNF agents, namely adalimumab, are safe drugs that represent an important arsenal in the treatment of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. "Paradoxical effects" have been described with their use. A sarcoidosis "like" reaction induced by these agents is rare and is characterized by a systemic granulomatous reaction indistinguishable from sarcoidosis. We present a 55-year-old male patient, with axial spondyloarthritis, treated with with adalimumab. About 17 months under this therapy, he complained of dry cough and wheezing. Chest CT showed a peri-lymphatic and pericisural micronodular pattern and hilo-mediastinal lymph nodes, suggestive of sarcoidosis. Angiotensin converting enzyme was increased. Assuming the hypothesis of a sarcoidosis-like reaction secondary to adalimumab this therapy was discontinued with progressive improvement in the patient's complaints and in the radiological changes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paradoxical reactions (PRs) are defined as the occurrence during biologic therapy of a pathological condition that usually responds to these drugs. OBJECTIVE To estimate the incidence of PRs and identify risk factors. METHODS Multicenter study of the database for the Greater Paris University Hospitals including biological-naïve patients receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor-α, anti-interleukin-12/23, anti-interleukin-17 or anti-α4ß7-integrin agents for psoriasis, inflammatory rheumatism or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We used natural language processing algorithms to extract data. A cohort and a case-control study nested in the cohort with controls selected by incidence density sampling was used to identify risk factors. RESULTS Most of the 9,303 included patients (median age 43.0; 53.8% women) presented an IBD (3,773 [40.6%]) or a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease (3,708 [39.9%]), and 8,487 (91.2%) received anti-TNF-α agents. A total of 293 (3.1%) had a PR. The global incidence rate was 7.6 per 1,000 person-years (95%CI 6.7-8.4). Likelihood of PR was associated with IBD (adjusted OR [aOR] 1.9, 95%CI 1.1-3.2, p=0.021) and a combination of two inflammatory diseases (aOR 6.1, 95%CI 3.6-10.6, p<0.001) and was reduced with conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) and corticosteroids (aOR 0.6, 95%CI 0.4-0.8, p=0.003; 0.4, 0.2-0.7, p<0.001). CONCLUSION Likelihood of PRs was associated with IBD or a combination of a least two inflammatory diseases. More studies are needed to assess the benefit of systematically adding csDMARDs for such high-risk patients.

Abstract
HTLV-1 uveitis (HU) is the third clinical entity to be designated as an HTLV-1-associated disease. Although HU is considered to be the second-most frequent HTLV-1-associated disease in Japan, information on HU is limited compared to that on adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM). Recent studies have addressed several long-standing uncertainties about HU. HTLV-1-related diseases are known to be caused mainly through vertical transmission (mother-to-child transmission), but emerging HTLV-1 infection by horizontal transmission (such as sexual transmission) has become a major problem in metropolitan areas, such as Tokyo, Japan. Investigation in Tokyo showed that horizontal transmission of HTLV-1 was responsible for HU with severe and persistent ocular inflammation. The development of ATL and HAM is known to be related to a high provirus load and hence involves a long latency period. On the other hand, factors contributing to the development of HU are poorly understood. Recent investigations revealed that severe HU occurs against a background of Graves’ disease despite a low provirus load and short latency period. This review highlights the recent knowledge on HU and provides an update on the topic of HU in consideration of a recent nationwide survey.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize clinical outcomes of paradoxical pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) onset in patients on biologic therapy. METHODS The authors conducted MEDLINE and EMBASE searches using PRISMA guidelines to include 57 patients (23 reports). RESULTS Of the included patients, 71.9% (n = 41/57) noted PG onset after initiating rituximab, 21.1% (n = 12/57) noted tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) inhibitors, 5.3% (n = 3/57) reported interleukin 17A inhibitors, and 1.8% (n = 1/57) reported cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 antibodies. The majority of patients (94.3%) discontinued biologic use. The most common medications used to resolve rituximab-associated PG were intravenous immunoglobulins, oral corticosteroids, and antibiotics, with an average resolution time of 3.3 months. Complete resolution of PG in TNF-α-associated cases occurred within an average of 2.2 months after switching to another TNF-α inhibitor (n = 1), an interleukin 12/23 inhibitor (n = 2), or treatment with systemic corticosteroids and cyclosporine (n = 3), systemic corticosteroids alone (n = 1), or cyclosporine alone (n = 1). CONCLUSIONS Further investigations are warranted to determine whether PG onset is associated with underlying comorbidities, the use of biologic agents, or a synergistic effect. Nevertheless, PG may develop in patients on rituximab or TNF-α inhibitors, suggesting the need to monitor and treat such adverse effects.

Abstract
Recent advances in the pathophysiologic understanding of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) suggests that cytokine release syndrome (CRS) has an association with the severity of disease, which is characterized by increased tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-2, IL-7, and IL-10. Hence, managing CRS has been recommended for rescuing severe COVID-19 patients. TNF-α, one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines commonly upregulated in acute lung injury, triggers CRS and facilitates SARS-CoV-2 interaction with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). TNF-α inhibitors, therefore, may serve as an effective therapeutic strategy for attenuating disease progression in severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Below, we review the possibilities and challenges of targeting the TNF-α pathway in COVID-19 treatment.

Abstract
Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease of the skin. Biologic therapy has been available for more than 10 years and has become one of the standard treatments for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. Initially, only biologics against tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were used, and only later did drugs against different interleukins (ILs), including IL-17 or IL-23, became available. The side effects of biologic therapy include paradoxical adverse events (PAEs), such as palmoplantar pustular reaction, especially with anti-TNF-α drugs. We present the case of a 49-year-old female patient with diabetes and psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis treated with an adalimumab biosimilar who developed a severe PAE of the palmoplantar pustular type. Treatment with adalimumab was stopped and the patient switched to ixekizumab which was successful. When a paradoxical reaction develops during biologic therapy, especially when it is severe as in our patient, switching to another class of biologics is advised.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 95:153738. [PMID: 34544631 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2021.153738] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2021] [Revised: 08/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/05/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION It is widely accepted that inflammatory responses play a key role in acute pancreatitis (AP). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effect of QingYi decoction on inflammatory markers. METHODS The PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, CNKI, CBM, and WANFGANG databases were searched for randomized controlled trials published before December 2019. Thirty-nine eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration risk of bias tool. The standardized mean differences (SMDs) with corresponding 95% CIs were examined for inflammatory markers. The chi-square test and I2 statistic were used to assess heterogeneity. We assessed publication bias by Begg's test, Egger's test, and the trim and fill method. In addition, a meta-regression, sensitivity analysis, subgroup analysis, and cumulative meta-analysis were performed to assess the effects of confounding factors. The quality of evidence was evaluated by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system. RESULTS The pooled effect estimate indicated that QingYi decoction treatment significantly reduced the levels of pro-inflammatory IL-6 (SMD = -3.33; 95% CI, -4.17, -2.50; p < 0.001; I2: 97.9%), IL-8 (SMD = -1.55; 95% CI, -2.03, -1.07; p < 0.001; I2: 96.1%), TNF-α (SMD = -1.04; 95% CI, -1.37, -0.72; p < 0.001; I2: 93.9%), IL-1 (SMD = -2.05; 95% CI, -3.21, -0.90; p < 0.001; I2: 93.4%), and IL-1β (SMD = -1.31; 95% CI, -2.42, -0.21; p < 0.001; I2: 89.8%) and elevated the levels of anti-inflammatory IL-10 (SMD = 0.99; 95% CI, 0.60, 1.38; p < 0.001; I2: 91.1%) among patients with AP. CONCLUSION The current review and meta-analysis suggest that the therapeutic effect of QingYi decoction may be related to its anti-inflammatory properties. Due to the high heterogeneity across the included studies, additional large-scale and rigorously designed studies are needed to confirm the conclusions of this study.

Determining Response to Treatment for Drug-Induced Bronchocentric Granulomatosis by the Forced Oscillation Technique. Medicina (B Aires) 2021; 57:medicina57121315.

Abstract
Anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) therapy is widely used to treat various inflammatory conditions. Paradoxically, there are several case reports describing the development of bronchocentric granulomatosis treated with TNFα inhibitors, and it is difficult to determine the effect of treatment using conventional spirometry because the lesions are located in small airways. However, it has been reported that the forced oscillation technique (FOT) is useful in the evaluation of small airway disease in bronchial asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We performed the FOT to determine the effect of treatment on bronchocentric granulomatosis and found it to be useful. We report the case of a 55-year-old female with ulcerative colitis who was treated with golimumab and who developed bronchocentric granulomatosis as a sarcoid-like reaction to golimumab. She was successfully treated with prednisone, and the treatment efficacy was confirmed by the FOT. The FOT may be useful in the evaluation of small airway disease in bronchocentric granulomatosis. This case may help inform clinicians of the usefulness of the FOT to assess small airway disease in various diseases.

Abstract
Paradoxical reaction (PR) occurs when a drug elicits a reaction contrary to what was expected. To clarify the clinical features and genetic background of individuals susceptible to PR, we analyzed the clinical course of patients in whom psoriatic eruptions worsened or newly developed during tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonist administration and the role of focal infections and genetic variations. Of 125 patients who received TNF antagonist therapy for psoriasis, acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH), generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP), or palmoplantar pustular psoriasis (PPP), eight patients with PR were surveyed at our hospital Dermatology Department between 2010 and 2021. A survey was also done on six patients who received TNF antagonist therapy for Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and hidradenitis suppurativa and were referred to our department due to PR. Additionally, Sanger sequencing analysis was performed for all exons and flanking introns of IL36RN (interleukin 36 receptor antagonist), CARD14 (caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 14), and AP1S3 (adaptor-related protein complex 1 subunit sigma 3). The clinical assessment of the 14 patients demonstrated an average age at PR onset of 48.4 years, a male : female ratio of 5:9, and a mean administration period until onset of 9.2 months. The clinical types of PR were plaque psoriasis, PPP, GPP, pustulosis, acne, ACH, hair loss, and exacerbation of arthralgia. Histopathology revealed psoriasiform dermatitis in three patients. One patient continued TNF antagonist therapy. All of the patients with psoriasis and GPP had dental infections, suggesting that focal infection may be a risk factor of the development of PR following TNF antagonist therapy. Gene analysis demonstrated CARD14 gene variants associated with RA, CD, AS, or PPP in four patients. In addition, all of the patients with ACH and PPP experienced PR, suggesting that these diseases may predispose patients to PR to TNF antagonist therapy.

Abstract
Anti-TNF-α agents (e.g. infliximab, adalimumab, etanercept) are effective management options in various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases (e.g. inflammatory bowel disease). The occurrence during anti-TNF-α agent therapy of a new onset or exacerbation of an inflammatory condition that usually responds to this class of drug has been termed a paradoxical adverse event (PAE). A wide range of ophthalmic PAEs have been reported including uveitis, optic neuritis/neuropathy, scleritis, orbital myositis, retinal vasculitis, and others. The patient reported herein developed a dramatic orbital inflammatory PAE during his infliximab infusions, which manifested as an acute orbital apex syndrome with vision loss. Physicians using this medication should be aware of this serious vision-threatening PAE, and urgent therapy with high dose intravenous corticosteroids may be required.

Abstract
The high efficacy and tolerability of biological therapies such as anti-tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) have transformed outcomes for many inflammatory conditions. Conversely, a wide range of paradoxical reactions, including pulmonary, renal and ocular sarcoidosis secondary to TNF-α blocking agents in patients with severe psoriasis, has been reported. Sarcoid-like granulomatosis is one of these reactions, which may affect the pulmonary and cutaneous systems. Renal and ocular sarcoidosis, however, are less frequent and have unknown consequences. In this report, we present two cases of anti-TNF-α-induced sarcoidosis involving the pulmonary and renal systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND "Sarcoidosis-like" paradoxical reactions to Antitumor necrosis factor α (anti-TNFα) treatment have been reported. The clinical presentations are varied, most of the time, with a relatively typical picture of mediastinopulmonary involvement. More rarely, isolated granulomatous locations from various organs are described, leading to difficulties in diagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION We report a granulomatous cardiac valve location complicating etanercept treatment in a 26-years-old caucasian male with rheumatoid arthritis. The patient received leflunomide and low-dose corticosteroids, then etanercept was introduced because of persistent disease activity. He had no history of tuberculosis infection or contact, chest CT-scan was normal. At 3 months, he showed complete remission. After 6 months of etanercept treatment, the patient suddenly complained of headache with scotomas of the right visual field and vertigo, without fever. Cerebral MRI revealed 3 recent infarcts. Cardiac ultrasonography revealed a mobile mass on the posterior mitral leaflet. C-reactive protein level was 8mg/L, and all analyses were negative for an infectious agent. Leflunomide and etanercept were discontinued, and antibiotic therapy was started. Mitral valve resection and plasty were performed 2 days later. Histology of the valve revealed large non-caseating epithelioid granulomas with a suppurative-like necrotic center. After ruling out infectious endocarditis, sarcoidosis, rheumatoid valvulitis or lupus-like reaction induced by anti-TNF therapy, the diagnosis of a paradoxical reaction to etanercept was finally retained. Tocilizumab monotherapy was introduced to treat RA flare, no antibiotic preventive treatment was added. After 2 years, the patient was in remission. CONCLUSION This case raises for the first time the possibility of a paradoxical adverse event with an isolated granulomatous reaction on the heart valve occurring with anti-TNF treatment, namely etanercept.

Abstract
Immunomodulation with anti-TNFα biologics is highly effective in the treatment of various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, even though 2-5% of patients treated can develop paradoxical psoriasiform skin lesions. We recently analyzed three patients affected by severe hidradenite suppurativa (HS), and who developed paradoxical psoriasiform reactions following treatment with the TNF-α blockers. Psoriasiform skin reactions showed immunological and immunohistochemical features common to acute psoriasis, characterized by cellular players of innate immunity, such as plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC), neutrophils, mast cells, macrophages, and monocytes. In addition, IFN-β and IFN-α2a, two type I IFNs typical of early psoriasis, were highly expressed in paradoxical skin reactions. Concomitantly, the lymphotoxin (LT)-α and LT-β were overproduced. Detection of innate immunity cells was carried out on skin sections from HS patients, by immunohistochemistry (IHC) by using antibodies (Abs) against markers identifying specific leukocyte subpopulations. Anti-BDCA2, anti-CD15, anti-CD117, anti-CD68, anti-CD11c, and anti-CD3 Abs were employed to detect pDC, neutrophils, mast cells, macrophages, monocytes/dendritic cells, and T lymphocytes, respectively. In parallel, skin expression of the innate immunity soluble mediators IL-36γ, IFN-β, IFN-κ, LT-α and LT-β was also evaluated by IHC by using specific Abs. In this chapter, we describe the methods and protocols to detect the in situ expression and localization of innate immunity molecules and leukocyte subpopulations in skin lesions where inflammatory and psoriasiform reactions are evoked by anti-TNF- α biological therapy.

Abstract
Drug-induced sarcoidosis-like reaction (DISR) is a condition almost indistinguishable from sarcoidosis, both clinically and microscopically, consisting of granulomatous tissue reaction associated with a specific therapy. Commonly affected sites are the lungs, hilar lymph nodes, and skin. This report aimed to describe a very uncommon case of DISR with an unique involvement of the oral cavity. A 63-year-old female with a history of rheumatoid arthritis, who was treated with a TNF-α antagonist (adalimumab), presented multiple ulcerative nodules on the hard palate. Laboratory tests and imaging studies failed to show any other alterations. The biopsy specimen demonstrated multiple noncaseating granulomas. Histochemical reactions were negative for acid-fast bacilli and fungi, and immunohistochemical assessment highlighted the presence of normal lymphocytes and histiocytes. With the diagnosis of DISR, adalimumab was discontinued, and complete clinical resolution of the lesions was achieved after 14 months. Although uncommon, DISR should be considered in differential diagnoses of oral granulomatous reactions, especially in cases where the patient is being treated with TNF-α antagonists.

Abstract
Adalimumab (ADA), a fully human monoclonal tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antibody, is one of the most widely used biologics in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. However, ADA can exacerbate infectious conditions, induce paradoxical reactions such as inflammation, and cause neoplasia. Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is an infectious agent that induces inflammation and neoplastic infiltration in the eye. To date, numerous HTLV-1 carriers have been treated with adalimumab to suppress inflammation out of necessity, when standard anti-inflammatory drugs such as steroids and immunosuppressive agents have proven inadequate to control the inflammation. Here, we clarify the safety of adalimumab for the eye under HTLV-1 infectious conditions in vitro. We used the adult retinal pigment epithelial cell line (ARPE)-19 cell line as ocular resident cells, and used MT2 and TL-Om1 as HTLV-1-infected cells. ARPE-19 and MT2/TL-Om1 were co-cultured, and then adalimumab was administered. Production of cytokines and chemokines, TNF-α receptor (TNF-R), HTLV-1 proviral load (PVL), and apoptosis were measured to assess the effects of adalimumab. Contact between ARPE-19 and MT2/TL-Om1 produced inflammatory cytokines such as TNF, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and IL-10, and transduced chemokines such as interferon-inducible protein-10 (IP-10), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), monokine induced by interferon-γ (MIG), and regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES). No inflammatory cytokines and chemokines were exacerbated by adalimumab. Expression of TNF-R on ARPE-19 and MT2/TL-Om1 cells, HTLV-1 PVLs of MT2/TL-Om1 cells, and cell growth rate and apoptotic rate of ARPE-19 were unaffected by adalimumab. In conclusion, adalimumab does not appear to exacerbate HTLV-1-associated inflammatory conditions in the eye or increase PVL in HTLV-1-infected T cells. These data suggest that adalimumab could be used safely for the eye under HTLV-1 infectious conditions from the perspective of in vitro assessment.

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are pro-inflammatory
cytokines involved in acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. Indeed,
immunotherapy blocking these 2 cytokines has been developed. Micro-immunotherapy
(MI) also uses ultra-low doses (ULD) of pro-inflammatory cytokines, impregnated
on lactose-sucrose pillules, to counteract their overexpression. The study has
been conducted with 2 objectives: examine the anti-inflammatory effect in vitro
and the capacity of 2 unitary medicines, TNF-α (27 CH) and IL-1β (27 CH), to
reduce the secretion of TNF-α in human primary monocytes and THP-1 cells
differentiated with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate, after lipopolysaccharide
(LPS) exposure; then, investigate the presence of particles possibly containing
starting materials using tunable resistive pulse sensing technique. The results
show that the unitary medicines, tested at 3 pillules concentrations (5.5, 11
and 22 mM), have reduced the secretion of TNF-α in both models by about 10−20%
vs. vehicle control, depending on concentration. In this exploratory study,
particles (150−1000 nm) have been detected in MI ULD-impregnated pillules and a
hypothesis for MI medicines mode of action has been proposed. Conscious that
more evaluations are necessary, authors are cautious in the conclusions because
the findings described in the study are still limited, and future investigations
may lead to different hypothesis.

Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a highly prevalent, morbid inflammatory skin disease with limited treatment options. The major cell types and inflammatory pathways in skin of patients with HS are poorly understood, and which patients will respond to TNF-α blockade is currently unknown. We discovered that clinically and histologically healthy appearing skin (i.e., nonlesional skin) is dysfunctional in patients with HS with a relative loss of immune regulatory pathways. HS skin lesions were characterized by quantitative and qualitative dysfunction of type 2 conventional dendritic cells, relatively reduced regulatory T cells, an influx of memory B cells, and a plasma cell/plasmablast infiltrate predominantly in end-stage fibrotic skin. At the molecular level, there was a relative bias toward the IL-1 pathway and type 1 T cell responses when compared with both healthy skin and psoriatic patient skin. Anti-TNF-α therapy markedly attenuated B cell activation with minimal effect on other inflammatory pathways. Finally, we identified an immune activation signature in skin before anti-TNF-α treatment that correlated with subsequent lack of response to this modality. Our results reveal the fundamental immunopathogenesis of HS and provide a molecular foundation for future studies focused on stratifying patients based on likelihood of clinical response to TNF-α blockade.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a documented association between drug exposure and sarcoidosis-like reactions. In this study, we used the largest pharmacovigilance database to describe drug-induced sarcoidosis. METHODS Data were collected from the World Health Organization (WHO) pharmacovigilance database (VigiBase). We excluded steroids and vaccines from the analysis. The primary end-point was the lower end-point of the 95% credibility interval for the information component (IC025 ). RESULTS A total of 127 reports had significant IC025 values for drug-induced sarcoidosis, and 110 were included in the final analysis, accounting for 2425 adverse drug reactions. Overall, 2074 (85.5%) reactions were considered 'serious' and 86 (3.5%) were fatal. Most of the drugs that led to sarcoidosis adverse reactions were TNF-alpha antagonists, interferon or peg-interferon therapeutics, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Other biologic drugs were less frequently associated with sarcoidosis adverse events. Cancer-targeted therapies such as BRAF or MEK inhibitors were associated with sarcoidosis reactions in 37 cases. Pulmonary hypertension drugs were also reported for drug-induced sarcoidosis. Amongst the 55 drugs considered as potential sarcoidosis inducers, 25 (45.4%) were never reported in Medline as drug-induced sarcoidosis. CONCLUSIONS We provide a detailed list of suspected drugs associated with drug-induced sarcoidosis that will improve the recognition of this drug-induced adverse event.

Abstract
Background Uveitis is a known ophthalmologic manifestation of seronegative spondyloarthropathy, including psoriatic arthritis. However, the data is less clear among patients with psoriasis due to the limited number of published studies. Aims To investigate whether the risk of incident and prevalent uveitis is elevated among patients with psoriasis using systematic review and meta-analysis technique. Methods The MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched from their inception to May 2019. Eligible studies must have included a psoriasis group and a nonpsoriasis group. Eligible studies must also have investigated for prevalent or incident uveitis, and the magnitude of difference between the study groups must have been reported. Pooled risk ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using random-effect generic inverse variance methods. Results Of 7,107 potentially eligible articles from the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases, 7 studies were included in the meta-analysis. Two of those studies compared the incidence, and 5 studies compared the prevalence of uveitis between the psoriasis and nonpsoriasis groups. For incident uveitis, a total of 5,865,801 patients (222,083 with psoriasis and 5,643,718 without psoriasis) were analyzed. For prevalent uveitis, a total of 1,343,436 patients (37,891 with psoriasis and 1,305,545 without psoriasis) were studied. The risk of incident uveitis was significantly higher among patients with psoriasis with a pooled risk ratio of 1.23 (95% CI: 1.05-1.45, I 2 = 55%). The risk of prevalent uveitis was also significantly higher among patients with psoriasis with a pooled risk ratio of 1.97 (95% CI: 1.68-2.31, I 2 = 0%). Conclusions The results of this study revealed significantly increased risk of both prevalent and incident uveitis among patients with psoriasis.

Abstract
Secukinumab, ixekizumab and brodalumab are monoclonal antibody therapies that inhibit interleukin (IL)-17 activity and are widely used for the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. The promising efficacy results in dermatology and rheumatology prompted the evaluation of these drugs in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, but the onset of paradoxical events (disease exacerbation after treatment with a theoretically curative drug) prevented their approval in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). To date, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these paradoxical effects are not well defined, and there are no clear guidelines for the management of patients with disease flare or new IBD onset after anti-IL-17 drug therapy. In this review, we summarise the literature on putative mechanisms, the clinical digestive effects after therapy with IL-17 inhibitors and provide guidance for the management of these paradoxical effects in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The first-line treatment of axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) is with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and is followed by tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors (the main treatment for patients not responding to NSAIDs) or drugs targetting the IL-23/IL-17 pathway. The efficacy of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) such as methotrexate and sulfasalazine (SSZ) has not been demonstrated, although SSZ can be considered in patients with concomitant peripheral arthritis. AREAS COVERED This review describes the beneficial and toxicological effects of the drugs used to treat axial SpA. EXPERT COMMENTARY Growing concerns about the safety of anti-TNF drugs underline the need to ensure that all clinicians are capable of taking appropriate preventive action and adequately treating affected patients.

Abstract
Immunomodulation with anti‐TNF‐α is highly effective in the treatment of various immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases, including hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). However, this may be responsible for unexpected paradoxical psoriasiform reactions. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying the induction of these events are not clear, even though the involvement of innate immune responses driven by plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) has been described. In addition, the genetic predisposition to psoriasis of patients could be determinant. In this study, we investigated the immunological and genetic profiles of three HS patients without psoriasis who developed paradoxical psoriasiform reactions following anti‐TNF‐α therapy with adalimumab. We found that paradoxical psoriasiform skin reactions show immunological features common to the early phases of psoriasis development, characterized by cellular players of innate immunity, such as pDC, neutrophils, mast cells, macrophages, and monocytes. In addition, IFN‐β and IFN‐α2a, two type I IFNs typical of early psoriasis, were highly expressed in paradoxical skin reactions. Concomitantly, other innate immunity molecules, such as the catheledicin LL37 and lymphotoxin (LT)‐α and LT‐β were overproduced. Interestingly, these innate immunity molecules were abundantly expressed by keratinocytes, in addition to the inflammatory infiltrate. In contrast to classical psoriasis, psoriasiform lesions of HS patients showed a reduced number of IFN‐γ and TNF‐α‐releasing T lymphocytes. On the contrary, IL‐22 immunoreactivity was significantly augmented together with the IL‐36γ staining in leukocytes infiltrating the dermis. Finally, we found that all HS patients with paradoxical reactions carried allelic variants in genes predisposing to psoriasis. Among them, SNPs in ERAP1, NFKBIZ, and TNFAIP genes and in the HLA‐C genomic region were found.

Abstract
Use of biologics has been widely advocated for inflammatory diseases recently. Anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antibody therapy is reportedly effective against ocular inflammation. However, side effects of TNF-α inhibition have been reported, particularly in the form of exacerbation of infections such as tuberculosis. Paradoxical reactions such as exacerbated inflammation are also well known. Around 20 million humans are infected with human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) globally, and this virus can cause adult T-cell leukemia, HTLV-1-associated myelopathy and HTLV-1 uveitis. As for ophthalmic concerns, it has not been identified whether anti-TNF-α antibody stimulates HTLV-1-infected cells and ocular cells to induce HTLV-1 uveitis in HTLV-1 carriers. Here we investigated the effects of anti-TNF-α antibody on ocular status under HTLV-1 infectious conditions using ocular cells and HTLV-1-infected cells in vitro. We used the ARPE-19 human retinal pigment epithelial cell line as ocular cells considered to play an important role in the blood-ocular barrier, and the MT2 HTLV-1-infected cell line. Jurkat cells were used as controls. Infliximab (IFX) was used as an anti-TNF-α antibody to achieve TNF-α inhibition. We evaluated the production of inflammatory cytokines and intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, proliferation of ARPE-19, expression of TNF-α receptor (TNF-R) and HTLV-1 proviral DNA, and the percentage of apoptotic ARPE-19. Inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, TNF, and ICAM-1 were significantly elevated through contact between ARPE-19 and MT2. Treatment with IFX tented to inhibit TNF production, although the level of production was low, but changes in IL-6, IL-8, and ICAM-1 remained unaffected. Expression of TNFR was unaltered by IFX treatment. HTLV-1 proviral DNA was not significantly changed with treatment. No change in cell growth rate or apoptotic rate of ARPE-19 was seen with the addition of IFX. In conclusion, IFX did not exacerbate production of inflammatory cytokines, and did not affect expression of TNFR, proliferation of ARPE-19, HTLV-1 proviral load, or apoptosis of ARPE-19. These results suggest that IFX does not exacerbate HTLV-1-related inflammation in the eye and represents an acceptable treatment option under HTLV-1 infectious conditions.

Abstract
On August 24, 1998, Remicade® (infliximab), the first tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) inhibitor, received its initial marketing approval from the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of Crohn’s disease. Subsequently, Remicade was approved in another five adult and two pediatric indications both in the USA and across the globe. In the 20 years since this first approval, Remicade has made several important contributions to the advancement of science and medicine: 1) clinical trials with Remicade established the proof of concept that targeted therapy can be effective in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases; 2) as the first monoclonal antibody approved for use in a chronic condition, Remicade helped in identifying methods of administering large, foreign proteins repeatedly while limiting the body’s immune response to them; 3) the need to establish Remicade’s safety profile required developing new methods and setting new standards for postmarketing safety studies, specifically in the real-world setting, in terms of approach, size, and duration of follow-up; 4) the study of Remicade has improved our understanding of TNF’s role in the immune system, as well as our understanding of the pathophysiology of a range of diseases characterized by chronic inflammation; and 5) Remicade and other TNF inhibitors have transformed treatment practices in these chronic inflammatory diseases: remission has become a realistic goal of therapy and long-term disability resulting from structural damage can be prevented. This paper reviews how, over the course of its development and 20 years of use in clinical practice, Remicade was able to make these contributions.

Abstract
Antitumor necrosis factor-α therapy has been used effectively in treatment of many inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and inflammatory bowel disease. There are increasing number of paradoxical reactions associated with this therapy that are being reported. We present the case of a 63-year-old male with psoriatic arthritis maintained on adalimumab and methotrexate (previous treatment trials of prednisone and leflunomide) who developed severe symptomatic sarcoidosis in the brain, liver, and lung. Upon discontinuation of adalimumab, the symptoms resolved but the imaging findings persisted. Although the development of sarcoidosis (usually in the lung, skin, and eyes) while on antitumor necrosis factor-α therapy is increasingly reported, the brain and liver are less commonly involved but should be borne in mind by physicians when extensive granulomatous lesions develop.

Abstract
Objective To report four cases of new onset or exacerbation of uveitis following administration of infliximab. Methods This retrospective observational case series includes four patients who developed new onset or exacerbation of uveitis paradoxically during infliximab treatment. Results Four patients were assessed, including three women, with a mean age of 33 (14–84) years. Infliximab was introduced for the treatment of scleritis associated with rheumatoid arthritis (two cases), chronic anterior uveitis associated with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) (one case) and Crohn’s disease (one case). Anterior scleritis associated with rheumatoid arthritis successfully improved following infliximab administration; however, macular oedema or dense vitritis paradoxically developed in two cases. In one case, infliximab was switched to tocilizumab. In another case, infliximab was discontinued, and additional corticosteroids and immunosuppressive medications were added. In one patient with JIA, new-onset macular oedema and exacerbation of anterior uveitis were observed during infliximab treatment, so the patient was switched to adalimumab. In the patient with Crohn’s disease treated with infliximab, severe vasculitis and macular oedema occurred, requiring intravitreal triamcinolone injection. The patient was switched to adalimumab. Given that these reactions were paradoxical effects of infliximab, infliximab treatment was discontinued in all cases, and additional corticosteroids or immunosuppressive medications were added. All cases remained free of ocular inflammation at the last visit. Conclusion Uveitis rarely occurs de novo or is exacerbated during infliximab treatment. Cessation of infliximab led to resolution of this paradoxical adverse effect.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Blockers of IL-12/23, as well as specific blockers of IL-23, have been investigated as options for medical therapy in inflammatory bowel disease. These biological agents include ustekinumab - the first agent of this pharmacological class which has shown clinical efficacy in psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD) - and other monoclonal antibodies under investigation, including brazikumab, risankizumab, mirikizumab, and guselkumab. AREAS COVERED This review will focus on the rationale of the blockade of IL-12/23 axis in CD, efficacy and safety data of ustekinumab derived from randomized controlled trials and real-life observational studies, and the preliminary data of the highly promising selective IL-23 inhibitors. EXPERT OPINION Data from literature have demonstrated that ustekinumab holds the potential to deserve a relevant role in the management of patients with CD thanks to several properties, including the fast onset of action, the long duration of efficacy, the favorable safety profile, the systemic anti-inflammatory effect, and the peculiar way of administration. Nonetheless, additional research is warranted to determine the real value of ustekinumab, as current data are not able to answer all the questions about its effectiveness in real-life practice, and the external validity of the available results is not absolute.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine whether there is any association with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agent administration and development of new-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients. METHODS Records of the patients who met 1984 modified New York criteria for AS between 1998 and 2016 at Rheumatology Department were evaluated retrospectively and data about the patients, IBD properties and medication were obtained. RESULTS Among 420 patients, 310 were male, the average age was 42.9 ± 1.3 years, average disease duration was 16.7 ± 10.4 years. Anti-TNF agents were in use by 154 patients, 52 patients were receiving etanercept (ETN), infliximab (INF), adalimumab (ADA), and golimumab (GO) treatments were ongoing in 50, 41, and 11 patients, respectively. New-onset IBD developed in 10 patients; 3 from the group treated with non-anti-TNF drugs (1.1%) and 7 from the group treated with anti-TNF agents (4.5%) (p = 0.042). No significant difference was detected between three anti-TNF agent forms in relation with the risk of IBD onset. In AS patients, existence of familial AS (OR 4.69 (95%CI 1.28-17.19, p = 0.020) and anti-TNF agent treatment (OR 4.17 (95%CI 1.06-16.38, p = 0.041) were independent risk factors for new-onset IBD development. CONCLUSION Despite the increased risk of new-onset IBD development during the course of AS, paradoxical response to anti-TNF drugs must also be considered as a source that triggers onset of IBD.

Abstract
Spondyloarthropathies (SpA) encompass a group of chronic inflammatory diseases sharing common genetic and clinical features, including the association with HLA-B27 antigen, the involvement of both the axial and the peripheral skeleton, the presence of dactylitis, enthesitis, and typical extra-articular manifestations such as psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and acute anterior uveitis (AAU). The latter is commonly reported as a noninfectious acute inflammation of the anterior uveal tract and its adjacent structures. AAU may affect more than 20% of SpA patients representing the most common extra-articular manifestation of the disease. Considering the potential consequences of untreated AAU, early diagnosis and aggressive treatment are crucial to avoid complications of remittent or chronic eye inflammation, such as visual loss and blindness. The management of SpA has dramatically improved over the last decades due to the development of new treat-to-target strategies and to the introduction of biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs), particularly tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors (TNFis), currently used for the treatment of nonresponder patients to conventional synthetic agents. Along with the improvement of musculoskeletal features of SpA, bDMARDs provided an additional effect also in the management of AAU in those patients who are failures to topical and systemic conventional therapies. Nowadays, five TNFis, one interleukin-17, and one interleukin 12/23 blocker are licensed for the treatment of SpA, with different proven efficacy in preventing and treating ocular involvement. The aim of this review is to summarize the current options and to analyze the future perspectives for the management of SpA-associated AAU.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in many aspects of immune regulation. Anti-TNF biological therapy has been considered a breakthrough in the treatment of chronic autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this review, because of the major involvement of T cells in RA pathogenesis, we discuss the effects of anti-TNF biotherapy on T-cell responses in RA patients. We also outline the potential fields for future research in the area of anti-TNF therapy in RA.This could be useful to better understand the therapeutic efficiency and the side effects that are encountered in RA patients. Better targeting of T cells in RA could help set more specific anti-TNF strategies and develop prediction tools for response.

Preventive effect of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors versus nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on uveitis in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Clin Rheumatol 2018; 37:2763-2770.

Abstract
To compare the preventive effect of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors (anti-TNF antibody and soluble TNF receptor fusion protein (TNFR)) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on uveitis in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). This retrospective cohort study included all AS patients (n = 1055) who have been treated with either TNF inhibitor or NSAIDs at the Seoul National University Hospital from 2004 to 2016. Treatment episodes of each patient were assigned to anti-TNF antibody (n = 517), TNFR (n = 341), and NSAID (n = 704) groups. The incidence of uveitis in each group was compared using a Cox proportional hazard model. The incidence rates of uveitis before and after initiation of TNF inhibitors were also assessed. A propensity score-matched (PSM) comparison was performed for a sensitivity analysis. Uveitis was significantly less common in the anti-TNF antibody group than the NSAID group (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 0.53; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.29-0.96) while it was higher in the TNFR group (adjusted HR 2.25, 95% CI 1.43-3.53). Anti-TNF antibody further reduced the incidence of uveitis when prescribed with NSAIDs (combination therapy) (adjusted HR 0.39; 95% CI 0.19-0.79). Combination therapy was preventive in AS patients with a history of uveitis (adjusted HR 0.31; 95% CI 0.12-0.81), but not in those without history of uveitis. The incidence rate of uveitis fell from 6.36 to 2.60 per 100 person-years when anti-TNF antibody was added to NSAIDs. Anti-TNF antibody plus NSAIDs reduces the risk of uveitis to a greater extent than NSAIDs alone in AS patients with a history of uveitis. Combination therapy may be an effective secondary prevention measure.
