A cooperative release of mitochondrial DNA from platelets and neutrophils drives an interferon signature in systemic sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Mitochondria are organelles with a hypomethylated circular genome. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the systemic circulation has been implicated in inflammation. This study investigates the role of circulating DNA in systemic sclerosis (SSc) and the cellular mechanisms governing its release.

Epstein-Barr virus lytic infection promotes activation of Toll-like receptor 8 innate immune response in systemic sclerosis monocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Monocytes/macrophages are activated in several autoimmune diseases, including systemic sclerosis (scleroderma; SSc), with increased expression of interferon (IFN)-regulatory genes and inflammatory cytokines, suggesting dysregulation of the ...

Long‐Term Outcomes of Reduced Intensity Conditioning Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Systemic Sclerosis Patients with Impaired Cardiac Function

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective High intensity conditioning autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is standard of care for patients with advanced SSc. The role of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) prior to AHSCT in this population remains unclear. We conducted this study to determine the long‐term outcomes of RIC AHSCT in SSc patients with cardiac ...

Protein kinase Cδ and c-Abl kinase are required for transforming growth factor β induction of endothelial-mesenchymal transition in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
OBJECTIVE: The origin of the mesenchymal cells responsible for the intimal fibrosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc) has not been fully identified. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether subendothelial mesenchymal cells may emerge through ...

Atypical Wounds in Chronic Graft‐Versus‐Host Disease and Peripheral Arterial Disease Caused by Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The term “atypical wounds” primarily refers to lesions with immunological or cancerous etiologies. However, these wounds can also be drug‐induced. We report about a 32‐year‐old man with a 6‐year history of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and chronic graft‐versus‐host disease (cGvHD) following an HLA‐compatible allogeneic stem cell ...

Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

Bispecific Dual‐Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cutaneous Toxicity: A Report of Lorigerlimab Adverse Skin Reaction in Two Cancer Patients

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lorigerlimab is a dual bispecific antibody (BsAb) targeting cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte‐associated protein 4 and programmed cell death protein 1 that is used for treatment of advanced solid cancers such as metastatic castration‐resistant prostate carcinoma.

Improvement of mouth functional disability in systemic sclerosis patients over one year in a trial of fat transplantation versus adipose-derived stromal cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background. Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a multisystem disease characterized by cutaneous and visceral fibrosis. Face and mouth changes include telangiectasia, sicca syndrome, and thinning and reduction of mouth width (microcheilia) and opening ...

A matter arising: When should inflammatory and autoimmune rheumatic diseases be considered ‘early’?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Timely recognition of inflammatory and autoimmune rheumatic diseases (IARDs) is important to optimize the early diagnosis with tailored interventions and possible prevention of irreversible organ damage. This narrative review provides an update by summarizing the advances in identifying the early stages of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic sclerosis and ...
