Abstract
Understanding the impact of oral health on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will inform how best to manage patients with both periodontitis and RA. This review seeks to provide an update on interventional and mechanistic investigations, including a brief summary of European Research programs investigating the link between periodontitis and RA. Recent clinical studies are described that evaluate how the treatment of one disease impacts on the other, as are studies in both humans and animal models that have sought to identify the potential mechanisms linking the two diseases.

Skin Res Technol 2024; 30:e13577. [PMID: 38284293 PMCID: PMC10823401 DOI: 10.1111/srt.13577] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is a persistent inflammatory dermatological disorder. Tanshinone IIA (tan-IIA) is a biologically active compound in the self-made Xiao-Yin decoction (SMXYD) and exhibits diverse biological properties, such as anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory effects. The objective of this investigation was to assess the potential of tan-IIA as a therapeutic agent against psoriasis. METHODS Network pharmacology was employed to ascertain the active constituents and potential pathways associated with SMXYD and psoriasis. We conducted CCK-8, qRT-PCR, and western blotting to assess the proliferation of HaCaT keratinocytes and the expression of IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways. Additionally, we used H&E staining, western blotting, and ELISA to evaluate the therapeutic effects and signaling pathways of tan-IIA in psoriasis-like mice induced by imiquimod (IMQ). RESULTS Network pharmacology analysis identified eight hub compounds. The Th17/IL-17 signaling was found to be a potential therapeutic pathway of SMXYD against psoriasis, with JUN (AP-1) as the core molecule. Next, PTGS2 was selected as the target of tan-IIA against psoriasis using network pharmacology analysis. Molecular docking showed a high affinity between PTGS2 and tan-IIA. Tan-IIA treatment attenuated M-5-induced hyperproliferation and inflammation in HaCaT keratinocytes. Additionally, Tan-IIA downregulated the PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathway in HaCaT keratinocytes. In the IMQ-induced psoriasis-like mouse, tan-IIA significantly reduced the severity of skin lesions and downregulated the PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathway. Moreover, the combination of methotrexate (MTX) and tan-IIA further inhibited the IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways. CONCLUSION The administration of tan-IIA has shown a positive effect on psoriasis by inhibiting the IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways. The findings suggest that it has promising qualities that make it a potential candidate for the development of future anti-psoriatic agents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This multicentre, retrospective study compared the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib, baricitinib, peficitinib and upadacitinib in real-world clinical settings after minimizing selection bias and adjusting the confounding patient characteristics. METHOD The 622 patients were selected from the ANSWER cohort database and treated with tofacitinib (TOF), baricitinib (BAR), peficitinib (PEF) or upadacitinib (UPA). The patient's background was matched using propensity score-based inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) among four treatment groups. The values of Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), C-reactive protein (CRP), and modified Health Assessment Questionnaire (mHAQ) after drug initiation and the remission or low disease activity (LDA) rates of CDAI at 6 months after drug initiation were compared among the four groups. Further, the predictive factor for TOF and BAR efficacy was analysed. RESULTS The retention and discontinuation rates until 6 months after drug initiations were not significantly different among the four JAK inhibitors treatment groups. Mean CDAI value, CDAI remission rate, and CDAI-LDA rate at 6 months after drug initiation were not significantly different among treatment groups. Baseline CDAI (TOFA: OR 1.09, P < 0.001; BARI: OR 1.07, P < 0.001), baseline CRP (TOFA: OR 1.32, P = 0.049), baseline glucocorticoid dose (BARI: OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.01-1.38, P = 0.035), a number of previous biological or targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (biological/targeted synthetic DMARDs) (BARI: OR 1.36, P = 0.004) were predictive factors for resistance to CDAI-LDA achievement to JAK inhibitor treatment. CONCLUSION The efficacy and safety of TOF, BAR, PEF and UPA were not significantly different for the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Safety of JAK and IL-6 inhibitors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: a multicenter cohort study. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1267749. [PMID: 37868999 PMCID: PMC10586060 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1267749] [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: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The ORAL Surveillance trial showed a potentially higher incidence of malignancy and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) associated with tofacitinib than those associated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors (TNFis). However, few studies have compared the safety of non-TNFis or other Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors (JAKis). This study was aimed at comparing the incidence rates (IRs) of malignancies and MACEs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated using interleukin-6 (IL-6) inhibitors (IL-6is) or JAKis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 427 patients with RA who were treated using an IL-6i (n = 273) or a JAKi (n = 154). We determined the IRs of malignancy and MACEs, and the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of malignancies and investigated factors related to malignancy and MACEs. After adjusting the clinical characteristic imbalance by propensity score matching (PSM), we compared the IRs of adverse events between the JAKi and IL-6i groups. Results After PSM, the observational period was determined to be 605.27 patient-years (PY), and the median observational period was determined to be 2.28 years. We identified seven cases of malignancy (IR: 2.94 per 100 PY) in the JAKi-treated group and five cases (IR: 1.36 per 100 PY) in the IL-6i-treated group after PSM. The IR of MACEs was 2.56 and 0.83 (per 100 PY) in the JAKi- and IL-6i-treated groups. The IRRs of JAKi-treated patients versus IL-6i-treated patients were 2.13 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.67-7.42) for malignancy and 3.03 (95% CI: 0.77-15.21) for MACE. There were no significant differences in IRR for malignancy and MACE between both groups after PSM. Univariate and multivariable Cox regression analyses revealed that older age and JAKi use were independent risk factors for malignancy, while older age, hypertension, and JAKi use were independent risk factors for MACEs. The overall malignancy SIR was significantly higher in the JAKi-treated group compared to the general population (2.10/100 PY, 95% CI: 1.23-2.97). Conclusion The IRs of malignancy and MACE in patients with RA after PSM were comparable between IL-6i-treated and JAKi-treated patients. However, the SIR of malignancy in JAKi treatment was significantly higher than in the general population; therefore, further safety studies comparing JAKi to non-TNFi biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) are needed.

JAK-inhibitors and risk on serious viral infection, venous thromboembolism and cardiac events in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: A protocol for a prevalent new-user cohort study using the Danish nationwide DANBIO register. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0288757.

Abstract
Janus Kinase inhibitors (JAKis) are targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and represent an important alternative to treat patients with moderate to high rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. Safety concerns associated with increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE), serious viral infection, and, more recently, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in JAKi users have emerged worldwide. However, as the exact mechanisms to explain these safety concerns remain unclear, the increased risk of VTE, MACE, and serious viral infection in JAKi users is heavily debated. In light of the need to enrich the safety profile of JAKis in real-world data, we aim to quantify the incidence and risk of MACE, VTE, and serious viral infections in RA patients registered in the Danish DANBIO registry, a nationwide registry of biological therapies used in rheumatology. Therefore, we will conduct a population-based cohort study using a prevalent new-user design. We will identify all RA patients in the DANBIO, ≥ 18 years old, receiving a JAKi or a tumor necrosis factor α inhibitor (TNF-αi) from January 2017 to December 2022. Prevalent and new users of JAKis will be matched to TNF-αi comparators with similar exposure history using time-conditional propensity scores (TCPS). We will describe the cumulative incidence of the outcomes (VTE, MACE, serious viral infection) in each exposure group (JAKi users; TNF-αi users), stratified by outcome type. Additionally, the Aalen-Johansen method will be used to estimate the time-to-event survival function stratified by outcome type. We will also estimate the hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) of each outcome in both exposure groups using the time-dependent Cox proportional hazards model. Results will enrich the safety profile of JAKis in real-world data.

Drug Retention Rates and the Safety of Janus Kinase Inhibitors in Elderly Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. J Clin Med 2023; 12:4585. [PMID: 37510700 PMCID: PMC10380728 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12144585] [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: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined the real-world drug retention rate and safety data of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS This study enrolled 133 RA patients (≥65 years) with sufficient clinical data who were initiated with JAKis during the study period. These patients were divided into two groups: the very elderly group (≥ 75 years) and the elderly group (65 ≤ years < 75). The drug retention rates of JAKis were compared using Kaplan-Meier curves. RESULTS The discontinuation rates of JAKis were as follows: lack of effectiveness 27 (20.3%), adverse events (AEs) 29 (21.8%), and remission 2 (1.5%). There was no significant difference in the overall drug retention rate between the very elderly group (≥75 years) and the elderly group. Furthermore, the overall drug retention rates of JAKis were not affected by gender, methotrexate use, and anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibody (ACPA) status. The discontinuation rates of JAKis due to AEs were comparable both in the very elderly group (≥75 years) and the elderly group (65 ≤ years < 75). Whereas chronic lung disease and hypoalbuminemia were independently associated with discontinuation rates due to AEs, the overall drug retention rates were significantly lower in patients treated with the approved dose of JAKis than in those treated with a reduced or tapered dose. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the overall drug retention rate of JAKis in very elderly patients (≥75 years) was comparable with that in elderly patients (65 ≤ years < 75). The discontinuation rates of JAKis due to AEs were also comparable both in very elderly group patients and elderly patients.
