Abstract
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and neutrophils are critical to its pathogenesis. Neutrophil activation is closely regulated by inhibitory tyrosine phosphatases including Src homology region 2 domain containing phosphatase-1 (Shp1). Here, we report that loss of neutrophil Shp1 in mice produced hyperinflammation and lethal pulmonary hemorrhage in sterile inflammation and pathogen-induced models of acute lung injury (ALI) through a Syk kinase-dependent mechanism. We observed large intravascular neutrophil clusters, perivascular inflammation, and excessive neutrophil extracellular traps in neutrophil-specific Shp1 knockout mice suggesting an underlying mechanism for the observed pulmonary hemorrhage. Targeted immunomodulation through the administration of a Shp1 activator (SC43) reduced agonist-induced reactive oxygen species in vitro and ameliorated ALI-induced alveolar neutrophilia and NETs in vivo. We propose that the pharmacologic activation of Shp1 has the potential to fine-tune neutrophil hyperinflammation that is central to the pathogenesis of ARDS.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon inflammatory dermatological disorder characterized by painful ulcers that quickly spread peripherally. The pathophysiology of PG is not fully understood; however, it is most commonly considered a disease in the spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses. The treatment of PG remains challenging due to the lack of generally accepted therapeutic guidelines. Existing therapeutic methods focus on limiting inflammation through the use of immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory therapies. Recently, several reports have indicated the successful use of biologic drugs and small molecules administered for coexisting diseases, resulting in ulcer healing. In this review, we summarize the discoveries regarding the pathophysiology of PG and present treatment options to raise awareness and improve the management of this rare entity.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare inflammatory skin disease classified within the group of neutrophilic dermatoses and clinically characterized by painful, rapidly evolving cutaneous ulcers with undermined, irregular, erythematous-violaceous edges. Pyoderma gangrenosum pathogenesis is complex and involves a profound dysregulation of components of both innate and adaptive immunity in genetically predisposed individuals, with the follicular unit increasingly recognized as the putative initial target. T helper 17/T helper 1-skewed inflammation and exaggerated inflammasome activation lead to a dysregulated neutrophil-dominant milieu with high levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-1α, IL-8, IL-12, IL-15, IL-17, IL-23, and IL-36. Low-evidence studies and a lack of validated diagnostic and response criteria have hindered the discovery and validation of new effective treatments for pyoderma gangrenosum. We review established and emerging treatments for pyoderma gangrenosum. A therapeutic algorithm based on available evidence is also provided. For emerging treatments, we review target molecules and their role in the pathogenesis of pyoderma gangrenosum.

Abstract
Mice have been excellent surrogates for studying neutrophil biology and, furthermore, murine models of human disease have provided fundamental insights into the roles of human neutrophils in innate immunity. The emergence of novel humanized mice and high-diversity mouse populations offers the research community innovative and powerful platforms for better understanding, respectively, the mechanisms by which human neutrophils drive pathogenicity, and how genetic differences underpin the variation in neutrophil biology observed among humans. Here, we review key examples of these new resources. Additionally, we provide an overview of advanced genetic engineering tools available to further improve such murine model systems, of sophisticated neutrophil-profiling technologies, and of multifunctional nanoparticle (NP)-based neutrophil-targeting strategies.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common, inflammatory immune-mediated skin disease mainly presenting with plaques whose pathogenesis is based on the central role of the interleukin (IL)-23/IL-17 axis. However, the mechanisms acting in papular lesions of early-phase psoriasis are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to assess the involvement of autoinflammation, a state of sterile inflammation mainly driven by IL-1 over-production that has been recently hypothesized to act in the early phase of disease. Lesional skin of 10 patients with recent onset, untreated psoriasis has been investigated for expression of IL-1β, IL-17, IL-23 and other cytokines involved in the disease in comparison with normal skin of 10 healthy controls using a protein array method. Immunohistochemical phenotyping of inflammatory infiltrate and co-localization experiments with immunofluorescence confocal microscopy were conducted. IL-1β was significantly more expressed in psoriasis than in normal skin (P < 0·0001). The chemokine IL-8 was also over-expressed in psoriasis (P = 0·03) while IL-12, IL-17, IL-23, tumour necrosis factor-α and interferon-γ were only slightly more expressed in psoriasis than in normal skin, without reaching statistical significance. The inflammatory infiltrate consisted mainly of neutrophils with a relevant number of macrophages and dendritic cells and only scattered, predominantly T helper 1 lymphocytes. IL-1β co-localized mainly with CD66b, a neutrophil marker, suggesting that neutrophils were the major source of this cytokine. IL-1β over-expression in combination with low expression of cytokines that are predominant in late-phase plaque psoriasis may support the role of autoinflammation in early-phase disease, possibly paving the way to randomized trials with IL-1 antagonists.

Abstract
Neutrophil-mediated skin diseases, originally named neutrophilic dermatoses (NDs), are a group of conditions due to an altered neutrophil recruitment and activation, characterized by polymorphic cutaneous manifestations with possible internal organ involvement. Although a number of diseases are included in this setting, the two prototypic forms are pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) and Sweet's syndrome (SS) which usually present with skin ulcers and plaque-type lesions, respectively. They have central features significantly overlapping with autoinflammatory conditions which manifest as repeated episodes of tissue inflammation. However, in contrast to appropriate inflammatory responses to insults or to autoimmune disease, there is an absence of identifiable pathogens, autoantibodies, or autoreactive lymphocytes. The recognition of monogenic autoinflammatory diseases which can present with NDs has led to study several genes involved in autoinflammation in NDs. Based on discovering of a number of mutations involving different autoinflammatory genes, neutrophil-mediated skin diseases are nowadays regarded as a spectrum of polygenic autoinflammatory conditions. Although disease mechanisms have not yet been completely elucidated, NDs are recognized as diseases involving dysfunctional cellular signaling mediated by pathways mainly related to inflammasome and IL-1 with the contributory role of IL-17 and other effector molecules. The precise elucidation of the above-mentioned pathologic mechanisms may pave the way to tailored treatments for patients with different neutrophil-mediated skin diseases.

Abstract
Mice homozygous for the Y208N amino acid substitution in the carboxy terminus of SHP-1 (referred to as Ptpn6spin mice) spontaneously develop a severe inflammatory disease resembling neutrophilic dermatosis in humans. Disease in Ptpn6spin mice is characterized by persistent footpad swelling and suppurative inflammation. Recently, in addition to IL-1α and IL-1R signaling, we demonstrated a pivotal role for RIPK1, TAK1, and ASK1 in promoting inflammatory disease in Ptpn6spin mice. In the current study we have identified a previously unknown role for CARD9 signaling as a critical regulator for Ptpn6spin-mediated footpad inflammation. Genetic deletion of CARD9 significantly rescued the Ptpn6spin-mediated footpad inflammation. Mechanistically, enhanced IL-1α-mediated signaling in Ptpn6spin mice neutrophils was dampened in Ptpn6spinCard9-/- mice. Collectively, this study identifies SHP-1 and CARD9 cross-talk as a novel regulator of IL-1α-driven inflammation and opens future avenues for finding novel drug targets to treat neutrophilic dermatosis in humans.

Abstract
Mice homozygous for the Tyr208Asn amino acid substitution in the carboxy terminus of Src homology region 2 (SH2) domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP-1) (referred to as Ptpn6spin mice) spontaneously develop a severe inflammatory disease resembling neutrophilic dermatosis in humans. Disease in Ptpn6spin mice is characterized by persistent footpad swelling and suppurative inflammation. Recently, in addition to IL-1α and IL-1R signaling, we demonstrated a pivotal role for several kinases such as SYK, RIPK1, and TAK1 in promoting inflammatory disease in Ptpn6spin mice. In order to identify new kinases involved in SHP-1-mediated inflammation, we took a genetic approach and discovered apoptosis signal-regulating kinases 1 and 2 (ASK1 and ASK2) as novel kinases regulating Ptpn6-mediated footpad inflammation. Double deletion of ASK1 and ASK2 abrogated cutaneous inflammatory disease in Ptpn6spin mice. This double deletion further rescued the splenomegaly and lymphomegaly caused by excessive neutrophil infiltration in Ptpn6spin mice. Mechanistically, ASK regulates Ptpn6spin-mediated disease by controlling proinflammatory signaling in the neutrophils. Collectively, the present study identifies SHP-1 and ASK signaling crosstalk as a critical regulator of IL-1α-driven inflammation and opens future avenues for finding novel drug targets to treat neutrophilic dermatosis in humans.

Abstract
Recognition of self-antigen and its destruction by the immune system is the hallmark of autoimmune diseases. During the developmental stages, immune cells are introduced to the self-antigen, for which tolerance develops. The inflammatory insults that break the immune tolerance provoke immune system against self-antigen, progressively leading to autoimmune diseases. SH2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP), SHP-1, was identified as hematopoietic cell-specific PTP that regulates immune function from developing immune tolerance to mediating cell signaling post-immunoreceptor activation. The extensive research on SHP-1-deficient mice elucidated the diversified role of SHP-1 in immune regulation, and inflammatory process and related disorders such as cancer, autoimmunity, and neurodegenerative diseases. The present review focalizes upon the implication of SHP-1 in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders, such as allergic asthma, neutrophilic dermatosis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis, so as to lay the background in pursuance of developing therapeutic strategies targeting SHP-1. Also, new SHP-1 molecular targets have been suggested like SIRP-α, PIPKIγ, and RIP-1 that may prove to be the focal point for the development of therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects an ever-growing population of all ages with long-term consequences on health and cognition. Many of the issues that TBI patients face are thought to be mediated by the immune system. Primary brain damage that occurs at the time of injury can be exacerbated and prolonged for months or even years by chronic inflammatory processes, which can ultimately lead to secondary cell death, neurodegeneration, and long-lasting neurological impairment. Researchers have turned to rodent models of TBI in order to understand how inflammatory cells and immunological signaling regulate the post-injury response and recovery mechanisms. In addition, the development of numerous methods to manipulate genes involved in inflammation has recently expanded the possibilities of investigating the immune response in TBI models. As results from these studies accumulate, scientists have started to link cells and signaling pathways to pro- and anti-inflammatory processes that may contribute beneficial or detrimental effects to the injured brain. Moreover, emerging data suggest that targeting aspects of the immune response may offer promising strategies to treat TBI. This review will cover insights gained from studies that approach TBI research from an immunological perspective and will summarize our current understanding of the involvement of specific immune cell types and cytokines in TBI pathogenesis.

Abstract
Mice deficient in SHARPIN (Sharpincpdm mice), a member of linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), develop severe dermatitis associated with systemic inflammation. Previous studies have demonstrated that components of the TNF-signaling pathway, NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1R signaling are required to provoke skin inflammation in Sharpincpdm mice. However, whether IL-1α or IL-1β, both of which signals through IL-1R, instigates skin inflammation and systemic disease is not known. Here, we have performed extensive cellular analysis of pre-diseased and diseased Sharpincpdm mice and demonstrated that cellular dysregulation precedes skin inflammation. Furthermore, we demonstrate a specific role for IL-1β, but not IL-1α, in instigating dermatitis in Sharpincpdm mice. Our results altogether demonstrate distinct roles of SHARPIN in initiating systemic inflammation and dermatitis. Furthermore, skin inflammation in Sharpincpdm mice is specifically modulated by IL-1β, highlighting the importance of specific targeted therapies in the IL-1 signaling blockade.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Irradiated syngeneic wild-type mice developed the same neutrophilic dermatosis-like disease (NDLD) after adoptive transfer of bone marrow cells from Ptpn6(meb2/meb2) mutant mice. OBJECTIVE To analyze differentially expressed genes in the bone marrow of mice with NDLD to gain insight into the role of Ptpn6 in myelopoietic bone marrow pathology, and the mechanisms by which Ptpn6 insufficiency in the hematopoietic cells can lead to the development of skin lesions. METHODS As Ptpn6 is involved in a myriad of signaling pathways, we used a global approach with microarray technology for the first time to characterize changes in the bone marrow and skin of motheaten-type mice. RESULTS A total number of 1,511 probe sets in the bone marrow showed at least two-fold changes with FDR <0.05, of which 256 probe sets had over four-fold changes. A group of 63 genes in the bone marrow of NDLD mice had more than a 4-fold change with FDR <0.0001. From 503 genes encoding proteins with ITIM motif that binds to Ptpn6, 109 were up-regulated and 83 were down-regulated. We found that genes encoding hematopoietic receptors, neutrophil chemoattractants, Toll-like receptors (Tlr1, Tlr2 and Tlr4) and C-type lectin innate immunity receptors (Clec4e, Clec4d, Clec4n, Clec4a2 and Clec4a3) were significantly up-regulated in both NDLD bone marrow and skin. The Il1b gene was also significantly overexpressed in skin samples, confirming the importance of the IL-1/TLR pathway in the development of early skin inflammation in NDLD mice. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that innate immunity genes play a major role in development of neutrophilic dermatosis-like disease in mice.
