Autoimmune Theories of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Urticaria (hives) is a highly prevalent skin disorder that can occur with or without associated angioedema. Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a condition which persists for more than 6 weeks in duration and occurs in the absence of an identifiable ...

Biomarkers and clinical characteristics of autoimmune chronic spontaneous urticaria: Results of the PURIST Study

open access: yesAllergy. European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2019
Autoimmune chronic spontaneous urticaria (aiCSU) is an important subtype of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) in which functional IgG autoantibodies to IgE or its high‐affinity receptor (FcεRI) induces mast cell degranulation and subsequent symptom ...

Interleukin‐5, Eosinophils, and Interleukin‐5 Pathway Inhibitors in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interlukin‐5 (IL‐5) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) by promoting eosinophil differentiation, activation, and survival. We present here a typical case of EGPA in which treatment with IL‐5 pathway inhibitors is prescribed, showing to be beneficial for the patient.

Prediction of Relapse and Glucocorticoid Dependence in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Findings From a Large European Cohort

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by eosinophilia, asthma, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) involvement. Although glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective in controlling symptoms, relapses and GC dependence are common. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for vasculitis

Navigating adverse immunostimulation: A practical guide for clinical researchers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Problem Setting As drug development moves towards more complex products, early clinical development programmes are increasingly hampered by unwanted and/or unexpected activation of the immune system (adverse immune stimulation, AIS). Solution At the Centre for Human Drug Research, we have introduced standardized procedures to make AIS manageable, while

Ligelizumab for Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND In the majority of patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria, most currently available therapies do not result in complete symptom control. Ligelizumab is a next-generation high-affinity humanized monoclonal anti-IgE antibody.

Gut Microbiome and Serum Metabolome Analyses Identify Unsaturated Fatty Acids and Butanoate Metabolism Induced by Gut Microbiota in Patients With Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Chronic urticaria (CU) is defined as the continuous or intermittent presence of urticaria for a period exceeding 6 weeks and sometimes occurring with angioedema. Between 66 and 93% of patients with CU have chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), the precise

Adverse immunostimulation in early phase clinical trials: Key findings and recommendations based on the investigator's clinical experience

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Problem setting The emergence of therapeutic proteins has coincided with an increase of acute adverse immunostimulation (AIS). AIS has occured in clinical trials despite compliance with regulatory guidelines on preclinical evaluation and its incidence is anticipated to increase even further.

Pure Cold-Induced Cholinergic Urticaria in a Pediatric Patient

open access: yesCase Reports in Immunology, 2016
Cold urticaria and cholinergic urticaria are two distinct entities. The presentation of exclusive cold-induced cholinergic urticaria is very rare. The patient described herein had experienced urticaria in the exclusive setting of exercising in a cold ...
