HLA-DRB1 is associated with cefaclor-induced immediate hypersensitivity

open access: yesWorld Allergy Organization Journal
Background: Drug-induced hypersensitivity such as anaphylaxis is an important cause of drug-related morbidity and mortality. Cefaclor is a leading cause of drug induced type I hypersensitivity in Korea, but little is yet known about genetic biomarkers to

The Potential Role of Synovial T Cell Infiltration Following Knee Joint Injury in Symptoms and Progression to Osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Identification of osteoarthritis (OA)–specific synovial inflammatory pathways and their temporal relevance is critical for therapeutic targeting. We compared mononuclear inflammatory/immune cell responses following joint injury that does or does not lead to OA to define bona fide OA‐associated cellular events.

Self-report prevalence and associated factors to drug hypersensitivity in Mexican young adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Drug hypersensitivity is defined as any unfavorable reaction that occurs after the administration of any drug. It may or may not be mediated by the involvement of the immune system.

HLA and the Pharmacogenomics of Drug Hypersensitivity

open access: yes, 2014
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) represent a tremendous source of morbidity, mortality and cost in modern medicine. The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes are highly polymorphic and encode proteins that are integral to T-cell-mediated immunity to ...

Nerve Growth Factor is Sufficient to Cause Multiple Osteoarthritis‐Relevant Pathologic Features in Naïve Murine Knee Joints

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Nerve growth factor (NGF), a key mediator of pain, is increased in osteoarthritic (OA) joints. Antibodies against NGF show analgesic effects in painful knee OA, but clinical development was stopped because of side effects in the joints. Knowledge about the biologic effects of NGF on joint tissues is limited. Therefore, we explored the effects

Pro and Contra: Provocation Tests in Drug Hypersensitivity

open access: yes, 2017
Drug provocation test (DPT) is the controlled administration of a drug to diagnose immune- or non-immune-mediated drug hypersensitivity and the last step for accurate recognition of drug hypersensitivity reactions when the previous diagnostic evaluations

Hypersensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs for the treatment of neoplasms. Literature review

open access: yesInfusion & Chemotherapy
BACKGROUND. Like any other drug, chemotherapy drugs can cause hypersensitivity reactions and are the third leading cause of drug-induced anaphylaxis deaths in the United States.

The Value of Enzyme-linked Immunospot Assay in Identifying Causative Agents in Patients with Hypersensitivity Reactions to Antitubercular Agents [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo quanke yixue
Background Hypersensitivity reactions of antitubercular agents are very common in clinical practice. Drug provocation test is the only effective method to find out the causative agents, but it may cause re-sensitization or even shock, which can be life ...

Expert Perspectives: Defining and Managing Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in SSc, affecting up to three‐quarters of patients. The disease course is highly heterogeneous, ranging from indolent, nonprogressive forms to rapidly progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF).

Multiple drug hypersensitivity: normal Treg cell function but enhanced in vivo activation of drug-specific T cells

open access: yes, 2011
Up to 10% of patients with severe immune-mediated drug hypersensitivity reactions have tendencies to develop multiple drug hypersensitivities (MDH). The reason why certain individuals develop MDH and the underlying pathomechanism are unclear.
