PPAR-γ regulates the effector function of human T helper 9 cells by promoting glycolysis.

Apr, 2023

T helper 9 (T9) cells promote allergic tissue inflammation and express the type 2 cytokines, IL-9 and IL-13, as well as the transcription factor, PPAR-γ. However, the functional role of PPAR-γ in human T9 cells remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that PPAR-γ drives activation-induced glycolysis, which, in turn, promotes the expression of IL-9, but not IL-13, in an mTORC1-dependent manner. In vitro and ex vivo experiments show that the PPAR-γ-mTORC1-IL-9 pathway is active in T9 cells in human skin inflammation. Additionally, we find dynamic regulation of tissue glucose levels in acute allergic skin inflammation, suggesting that in situ glucose availability is linked to distinct immunological functions in vivo. Furthermore, paracrine IL-9 induces expression of the lactate transporter, MCT1, in T cells and promotes their aerobic glycolysis and proliferative capacity. Altogether, our findings uncover a hitherto unknown relationship between PPAR-γ-dependent glucose metabolism and pathogenic effector functions in human T9 cells. 更多详情

The growing importance of ultrasonography in cosmetic dermatology: An update after the 23rd IMCAS Annual World Congress (2022).

Nov, 2022

Ultrasound (US) has been used for many years in the field of medicine. Many specialties have embraced US as a quick, painless, and relatively inexpensive tool to assist the clinician in determining anatomy, pathology, and aid in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. US allows for precise mapping of cutaneous and subcutaneous structures in the face, in particular vascular structures. The use of US leads to reduced chances of complications and clinical failures, rendering more safety and high quality. 更多详情

Long-Term Dose Optimization of Adalimumab via Dose Spacing in Patients with Psoriasis.

Aug, 2022

Dose spacing (DS) can be useful for optimizing treatment with biologics in psoriasis patients. However, interval prolongation might increase the production of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) and, therefore, reduce the drug's effectiveness. The long-term effects of DS with adalimumab in psoriatic patients have not been reported. The goal of our study was to evaluate the long-term follow-up of psoriatic patients after adalimumab DS regarding the clinical course and determination of circulating adalimumab, TNFα levels, and anti-adalimumab antibodies. We retrospectively included seven patients treated with adalimumab for moderate-to-severe psoriasis and benefiting from DS from 2010 to 2021. The dose interval of adalimumab was extended to three weeks for all patients and then to four weeks for three of the seven patients. Adalimumab trough levels, TNFα levels, and ADA against adalimumab were measured. For six of the seven patients, absolute PASI values remained below 3 throughout the follow-up period (median = 8.0 years; range: 1.7-11.5) after DS. All the patients were satisfied with the effectiveness of their treatment regime. Within the follow-up period, an average of 63 doses of adalimumab per patient were spared. The median adalimumab trough levels were 4.7 µg/mL (range: 1.9-12.5). TNFα levels remained under 10 pg/mL (undetectable) in all except one patient. ADA against adalimumab remained negative (<10 µg/mL) during the follow-up in all patients. Our data indicate that therapeutic drug monitoring, including the measurement of trough concentrations and ADA, together with the clinical response and patient's preference, can be helpful for clinical decision making and treatment optimization in psoriasis. 更多详情

Clinical, biological and histological characteristics of bullous pemphigoid associated with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy: A national retrospective study.

Mar, 2021

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), most commonly anti-PD-1 (programmed cell death 1) and anti-PD-L1 (programmed cell death ligand 1) therapies, have revolutionized the treatment of many cancers. ICI may activate the immune system response even in healthy tissues, which can cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs).(1) Several cases of bullous pemphigoid (BP) triggered by anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy have been reported. 更多详情

Update on the anti-programmed cell death-1 receptor antibodies in advanced cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma.

05, 2020

Regarding the rising incidence and the not negligible mortality, the treatment of cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma (cSCC) has a high clinical relevance. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), especially anti-programmed cell death-1 receptor (anti-PD-1) antibodies such as pembrolizumab and cemiplimab have shown promising results in Phase 2 studies for patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic cSCC. We are presenting a review of the latest results in the treatment of cSCC with ICI. Patients with locally advanced or metastatic cSCC have been treated with cemiplimab 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks. For locally advanced cSCC, an objective response was observed in 44% of patients, 13% patients with a complete response, and 31% with a partial response. For metastatic patients, the overall response rate was 49.2%. The approved dose for cemiplimab in the United States and Europe is 350 mg every 3 weeks. These ICI seem to achieve higher response rates compared with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, with a durable response superior to both chemotherapy and EGFR inhibitors. The side effect profile of anti-PD-1 antibodies appears to be favorable compared to chemotherapy. In this way, PD-1 inhibitors are expected to become the new gold-standard treatment for patients with locally advanced and metastatic cSCC. 更多详情

Development and accuracy of an artificial intelligence algorithm for acne grading from smartphone photographs.

11, 2019

We developed an artificial intelligence algorithm (AIA) for smartphones to determine the severity of facial acne using the GEA scale and to identify different types of acne lesion (comedonal, inflammatory) and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIHP) or residual hyperpigmentation. Overall, 5972 images (face, right and left profiles) obtained with smartphones (IOS and/or Android) from 1072 acne patients were collected. Three trained dermatologists assessed the acne severity for each patient. One acne severity grade per patient (grade given by the majority of the three dermatologists from the two sets of three images) was used to train the algorithm. Acne lesion identification was performed from a subgroup of 348 images using a tagging tool; tagged images served to train the algorithm. The algorithm evolved and was adjusted for sensibility, specificity and correlation using new images. The correlation between the GEA grade and the quantification and qualification of acne lesions both by the AIA and the experts for each image were evaluated for all AIA versions. At final version 6, the GEA grading provided by AIA reached 68% and was similar to that provided by the dermatologists. Between version 4 and version 6, AIA improved precision results multiplied by 1.5 for inflammatory lesions, 2.5 for non-inflammatory lesions and by 2 for PIHP; recall was improved by 2.6, 1.6 and 2.7. The weighted average of precision and recall or F1 score was 84% for inflammatory lesions, 61% for non-inflammatory lesions and 72% for PIHP. 更多详情

Paradoxical pustular psoriasis induced by ustekinumab in a patient with Crohn's disease-associated spondyloarthropathy.

07, 2018

Palmoplantar pustular psoriasis (PPP) is a clinical form of psoriasis, for which tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors (TNFi) or interleukins 12/23 inhibitor (ustekinumab) can be a therapeutic option. Paradoxical psoriatic reactions induced by TNFi are now well known. We present the exceptional case of a paradoxical PPP appeared under ustekinumab in a patient with Crohn's disease-associated spondyloarthropathy. A 58-year-old woman presented with recent peripheral inflammatory arthralgias appeared in the context of a Crohn's disease diagnosed in 2008. Three weeks after the first injection of ustekinumab 390 mg for a refractory Crohn's disease, a slight pruritic erythematous and pustular dermatosis appeared on the right hand palm. The clinical aspect was strongly in favor of a PPP. Ustekinumab was discontinued and replaced by golimumab, leading to a complete healing of PPP after 15 days of discontinuation. Causality assessment calculated using the French method was plausible for ustekinumab in the induction of PPP. It was based on a compatible chronology according to time to onset associated with complete recovery 2 weeks after cessation of treatment, and on the negative assessment of an alternative etiology (nor bacterial or viral infection, nor other treatment taken by the patient, nor previous history of psoriasis). The worsening of underlying psoriasis under ustekinumab through the appearance of generalized or palmoplantar pustules has already been reported in five cases. We describe to our knowledge the first case of paradoxical PPP under ustekinumab in a patient with no known underlying psoriasis. 更多详情

Does mandibular third molar have an impact on dental mandibular anterior crowding? A literature review.

Jun, 2018

Mandibular dental anterior crowding is a common multi-factorial phenomenon. The involvement of the lower third molar remains unclear. These pending questions led us to conduct a literature review to evaluate the impact of the lower third molar on mandibular dental anterior crowding. Twelve articles were selected, published from 1974 to 2014. Four studies were prospective. Sample size ranged from 30 to 9044. The average age was 20.56 years old. Seven studies considered patient with orthodontic treatment. The studies compared two to four groups. Studying tools were radiographs, casts and clinical examinations. Little's irregularity index, TSALD and Ganss ratio were used. In total, 83% of articles (n=10/12) did not find any significant relationship between lower third molar and mandibular dental anterior crowding. However, methods and designs of these studies being questionable, a definite conclusion on the impact of mandibular third molar on mandibular dental anterior crowding cannot be set. 更多详情

[Update on cutaneous dirofilariasis].

Oct, 2017

Dirofilariasis is a worldwide zoonotic infection that rarely affects humans and is caused by filarial nematodes of the genus Diroflaria transmitted by mosquitoes. Cutaneous dirofilariasis, due to D. repens, presents as inflammatory lesions that develop into subcutaneous nodules. These clinical symptoms may be consistent with Wells' cellulitis. Diagnosis of dirofilariasis involves demonstration of the presence of the nematode during skin biopsy and identification of the worm through macroscopic, histological and PCR analysis. Surgical resection of the nodule remains the gold standard treatment. The number of cases of human cutaneous dirofilariasis has increased in the recent years and the disease must not be misdiagnosed. 更多详情
