Abstract
A category of very uncommon systemic inflammatory blood vessel illnesses known as vasculitides. The pathogenesis and etiology of vasculitis are still poorly known. Despite all of the progress made in understanding the genetics and causes behind vasculitis, there is still more to learn. Epigenetic dysregulation is a significant contributor to immune-mediated illnesses, and epigenetic aberrancies in vasculitis are becoming more widely acknowledged. Less than 2 % of the genome contains protein-encoding DNA. Studies have shown that a variety of RNAs originating from the non-coding genome exist. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) have attracted the most attention in recent years as they are becoming more and more important regulators of different biological processes, such as diseases of the veins. Extracellular vehicles (EVs) such as exosomes, are membrane-bound vesicular structures that break free either during programmed cell death, such as apoptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis or during cell activation. Exosomes may be involved in harmful ways in inflammation, procoagulation, autoimmune reactions, endothelial dysfunction/damage, intimal hyperplasia and angiogenesis, all of which may be significant in vasculitis. Herein, we summarized various non-coding RNAs that are involved in vasculitides pathogenesis. Moreover, we highlighted the role of exosomes in vasculitides.

Abstract
Behçet's disease (BD) is a chronic multisystem inflammatory disorder. Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) polymorphism has been reported as a risk factor for BD. However, the immunological role of ERAP1 in BD remains unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the immunological role of ERAP1 in BD using a mouse model. ERAP1 incomplete expressing mice (ERAP1 hetero, +/-) were generated and inoculated with herpes simplex virus 1 to produce a BD mouse model. In these mice, dendritic cell activation markers and other immune response-related markers were analyzed. Among them, the factor showing a significant difference between ERAP+/- BD mice and WT BD mice was IL-17. In ERAP+/-, BD had significantly different expression levels of CD80, CD11b, Ly6G, RORγt, IFNγ, and IL-17 compared to asymptomatic controls. This study demonstrates ERAP1 defective expressions play an important role in BD development through inappropriate regulation of Th17.

[PMID: 33877738 DOI: 10.1111/jocd.14169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2021] [Revised: 04/08/2021] [Accepted: 04/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized with increased serum and tissue inflammatory mediators. IL-17 is a well-known inflammatory mediator that plays important roles in pathogenesis of inflammatory skin diseases. Previous studies reported that Th17 pathway is activated in rosacea and IL-17, one of Th17 signature cytokines, is elevated in tissue samples of rosacea patients. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate serum IL-17 levels in rosacea patients and to study its relationship with disease characteristics. METHODS Sixty patients diagnosed with rosacea and 60 healthy controls were included in the study. Serum IL-17 concentrations were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS The mean serum IL-17 level was 8.03 pg/mL (SD = 1.47) in rosacea patients and 7.37 pg/mL (Sd = 1.19) in controls. Serum IL-17 levels were significantly higher in rosacea (p = 0.002). Serum IL-17 levels were similar among patients with erythematotelangiectatic (ET) and papulopustular (PP) rosacea (8.02 vs 8.06, p = 0.83). Serum IL-17 levels did not correlate with rosacea severity (p = 0.59, r = 0.07 in ET rosacea; p = 0.88, r = 0.02 in PP rosacea), age of onset (p = 0.58, r = -0.07), and disease duration (p = 0.37, r = -0.11). Primary features and global assessments did not correlate with serum IL-17 levels (all p > 0.05). Among secondary features, edema showed a significant negative correlation with serum IL-17 concentrations (p = 0.037, r = -0.26). CONCLUSIONS Our study showed increased serum IL-17 levels in rosacea patients and a significant correlation between IL-17 concentrations and secondary features of the disease suggesting IL-17 may contribute to pathogenesis of rosacea and may be a new target for rosacea treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Interleukin-17 (IL-17) has been associated with the pathogenesis of various autoimmune/inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of Th17-related immunity in an innate immunity-dominated vasculitis, namely Behcet's disease (BD). METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 37 patients (age: 38.5 ± 9.8 years) with BD, and 25 healthy controls (HC) (age: 39.1 ± 9.3 years), were cultured in Th17-inducing conditions (IL-6, Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), IL-1β, and IL-23) for 6 days. Cultured cells were stained with CD4, CD8, CD3, TCR gamma/delta, CD19, interferon-γ (IFN-γ), and IL-17 antibodies to determine the intracellular cytokine secretion by flow cytometry. RESULTS IL-17 expression by CD8+ and γδ+ T cells was higher in BD compared to HC (p = 0.004, p = 0.003, respectively). No differences were observed between the groups in the IL-17 production by B cells. Under Th17-inducing conditions, production of IFN-γ by CD4+, CD8+, and γδ+ T cells was also higher in BD compared to HC (p < 0.05 in all). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that under Th17-stimulating conditions, T cells express both IL-17 and IFN-γ in BD. More prominent IL-17 and IFN-γ production by all lymphocyte subsets in BD might be associated with the increased innate responses, early tissue neutrophil infiltrations and late adaptive immunity in BD.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to clarify the role of pattern recognition receptors in Behçet's disease (BD). The frequencies of several pattern recognition receptors (CD11b, CD11c, CD32, CD206, CD209, and dectin-1) were analyzed in patients with BD by flow cytometry, and cytokine levels, interleukin- (IL-) 18, IL-23, and IL-17A, were compared in plasma. The analysis was performed in active (n = 13) and inactive (n = 13) stages of BD patients. Rheumatoid arthritis patients (n = 19), as a disease control, and healthy control (HC) (n = 19) were enrolled. The frequencies of CD11b+ and CD32+ cells were significantly increased in active BD patients compared to HC. Disease severity score was correlated to CD11c+, CD206+, and CD209+ in whole leukocytes and CD11b+, CD11c+, CD206+, CD209+, and Dectin-1+ in granulocytes. The plasma levels of IL-17A were significantly different between HC and active BD. IL-18 showed significant difference between active and inactive BD patients. From this study, we concluded the expressions of several pattern recognition receptors were correlated to the joint symptoms of BD.
