Project description:Adalimumab and secukinumab are commonly used for moderate to severe psoriasis vulgaris (PV). Although distinct individual responses to and impaired effectiveness of these biological agents occur occasionally, little is known about the underlying reasons. Here, we report a proteomic analysis of psoriatic lesions from patients treated with these drugs using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS). Thousands of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) changed over 12 weeks of treatment. Network analysis showed that DEPs could interact and induce transformation in matrix components, metabolic regulation, and immune response. The results of parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) analysis suggested that S100s, STAT1, KRT2, TYMP, SOD2, HSP90AB1, TFRC, and COL5A1 were the most significantly changed proteins in both groups. There was a positive association between the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score and three proteins (TFRC, IMPDH2, KRT2). Our study findings suggest that inhibition of IL-17A and TNF-α can induce changes in multiple molecules in psoriatic lesions and have an overlapping influence on the immune response and process through direct or indirect effects.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is upregulated in psoriatic skin and represents a prominent target in psoriasis treatment. The level of TNF-alpha-encoding mRNA, however, is not increased in psoriatic skin, and it remains unclear whether intervention strategies based on RNA interference (RNAi) are therapeutically relevant. To test this hypothesis the present study describes first the in vitro functional screening of a panel of short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting human TNF-alpha mRNA and, next, the transfer of the most potent TNF-alpha shRNA variant, as assessed in vitro, to human skin in the psoriasis xenograft transplantation model by the use of lentiviral vectors. TNF-alpha shRNA treatment leads to amelioration of the psoriasis phentotype in the model, as documented by reduced epidermal thickness, normalization of the skin morphology, and reduced levels of TNF-alpha mRNA as detected in skin biopsies 3 weeks after a single vector injection of lentiviral vectors encoding TNF-alpha shRNA. Our data show efficient lentiviral gene delivery to psoriatic skin and therapeutic applicability of anti-TNF-alpha shRNAs in human skin. These findings validate TNF-alpha mRNA as a target molecule for a potential persistent RNA-based treatment of psoriasis and establish the use of small RNA effectors as a novel platform for target validation in psoriasis and other skin disorders.

Project description:This retrospective cohort study included all user of tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors (TNFi), including etanercept, infliximab, adalimumab, and golimumab, among Korean patients with psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis (N of user = 7,645) and the non-user who was diagnosed with same diseases, never used TNFi, and was served as the reference. Cumulative usage of TNFi was calculated between the newly diagnosed date and index date (2-year from the diagnosed date). Adjusted hazard ratio (aHR [95% confidence intervals (CIs)]) for colorectal, liver, lung, kidney, breast, and thyroid cancer were not significantly increased or decreased: 0.92 [0.61-1.38], 0.90 [0.53-1.53], 1.00 [0.73-1.37], 1.20 [0.62-2.34], 0.91 [0.62-1.34], and 0.91 [0.66-1.26], respectively. The increased risk of lymphoma in the infliximab user (2.49 [1.33-4.66]; p < 0.01) was statistically significant. Similarly, the risk of leukemia increased significantly in the etanercept (3.87 [1.71-8.76]; p < 0.01) and adalimumab (3.36 [1.65, 6.84]; p < 0.001) user. Accumulated prescriptions of TNFi for two years did not increase the incidence of cancer, except lymphoma and leukemia. Since the use of TNFi increases the risk of leukemia and lymphoma, a decision for frequent prescription of TNF-α inhibitors should be more careful.

Project description:BackgroundNo study has performed a face-to-face comparison of biologics after the failure of the first anti-TNF agent in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of biologics in this setting.MethodsPatients with CD who were refractory to a first anti-TNF agent, and treated with ustekinumab (UST), vedolizumab (VDZ), or a second anti-TNF drug as a second-line biological agent at 10 French tertiary centres from 2013 to 2019 were retrospectively included in this study.ResultsAmong the 203 patients included, 90 (44%) received UST, 42 (21%) received VDZ and 71 (35%) received a second anti-TNF agent. The first anti-TNF agent was discontinued due to a primary nonresponse in 42 (21%) patients. At weeks 14-24, the rates of steroid-free remission were similar between the UST, VDZ and second anti-TNF groups (29%, 38% and 44%, respectively, p = 0.15). With a mean follow-up of 118 weeks, drug survival was shorter for patients who received ustekinumab treatment (p = 0.001). In the case of trough level less than 5 µg/ml, patients treated with a second anti-TNF agent had a higher postinduction remission rate (p = 0.002), and drug survival (p = 0.0005). No other relevant factors were associated with treatment efficacy, including trough levels greater than 5 µg/ml.ConclusionsVDZ, UST and a second anti-TNF agent exhibit similar efficacy in the short term, as second-biological line treatment in patients with CD who are refractory to a first anti-TNF agent, but shorter drug maintenance is observed for patients treated with UST.

Project description:Background: TNF-α inhibitors are effective biological agents for treating psoriasis, but the treatment responses differ across patients. This study aimed to identify genetic biomarkers of anti-TNF-α response in Chinese psoriasis patients using a genome-wide association approach. Methods: We recruited two independent cohorts of Chinese psoriasis patients administered etanercept biosimilar (with or without methotrexate). We identified 61 and 87 good responders (PASI improvement ≥75%), 19 and 10 poor responders (PASI improvement <50%) after 24 weeks treatment in the two cohorts, respectively. Then we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on anti-TNF-α response in each cohort independently, followed by a fixed-effects inverse-variance meta-analysis in the 148 good and 29 poor responders. Results: We tested genetic associations with >3 million genetic variants in either cohort. Meta-analysis identified significant associations within seven loci at p < 10-5, which also showed consistent association evidence in the two cohorts. These seven loci include rs2431355 (OR = 6.65, p = 4.46 × 10-7, IQGAP2-F2RL2 on 5q13.3), rs11801616 (OR = 0.11, p = 1.75 × 10-6, SDC3 on 1p35.2), rs3754679 (OR = 0.17, p = 7.71 × 10-6, CNOT11 on 2q11.2), rs13166823 (OR = 0.09, p = 3.71 × 10-6, IRF1-AS1 on 5q31.1), rs10220768 (OR = 5.49, p = 1.48 × 10-6, NPAP1 on 15q11.2), rs4796752 (OR = 5.56, p = 1.49 × 10-6, KRT31 on 17q21.2), and rs13045590 (OR = 0.08, p = 9.67 × 10-7, CTSZ on 20q13.3). Of the seven SNPs, six SNPs showed significant eQTL effect (p < 1 × 10-6) for several genes in multiple tissues. Conclusion: These results suggest novel biological mechanisms and potential biomarkers for the response to anti-TNF therapies. These findings warrant further validation.

Project description:Importance:Accumulating evidence indicates that there is an increased risk of cardiovascular disease among patients with psoriatic disease. Although an emerging concern that the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) may also be higher in this patient population adds to the growing support of initiating early interventions to control systemic inflammation, evidence on the comparative cardiovascular safety of current biologic treatments remains limited. Objective:To evaluate the risk of AF and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) associated with use of ustekinumab vs tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) in patients with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis. Design, Setting, and Participants:This cohort study included data from a nationwide sample of 78 162 commercially insured patients in 2 US commercial insurance databases (Optum and MarketScan) from September 25, 2009, through September 30, 2015. Patients were included if they were 18 years or older, had psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, and initiated ustekinumab or a TNFi therapy. Exclusion criteria included history of AF or receipt of antiarrhythmic or anticoagulant therapy during the baseline period. Exposures:Initiation of ustekinumab vs TNFi therapy. Main Outcomes and Measures:Incident AF and MACE, including myocardial infarction, stroke, or coronary revascularization. Results:A total of 60 028 patients with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis (9071 ustekinumab initiators and 50 957 TNFi initiators) were included in the analyses. The mean (SD) age was 46 (13) years in Optum and 47 (13) in MarketScan, and 29 495 (49.1%) were male. Overall crude incidence rates (reported per 1000 person-years) for AF were 5.0 (95% CI, 3.8-6.5) for ustekinumab initiators and 4.7 (95% CI, 4.2-5.2) for TNFi initiators, and for MACE were 6.2 (95% CI, 4.9-7.8) for ustekinumab initiators and 6.1 (95% CI, 5.5-6.7) for TNFi initiators. The combined adjusted hazard ratio for incident AF among ustekinumab initiators was 1.08 (95% CI, 0.76-1.54) and for MACE among ustekinumab initiators was 1.10 (95% CI, 0.80-1.52) compared with TNFi initiators. Conclusions and Relevance:No substantially different risk of incident AF or MACE after initiation of ustekinumab vs TNFi was observed in this study. This information may be helpful when weighing the risks and benefits of various systemic treatment strategies for psoriatic disease.

Project description:BackgroundUstekinumab and vedolizumab are both effective for treating Crohn's disease (CD). However, no head-to-head trials have been conducted thus far. We aimed to compare the effectiveness of ustekinumab and vedolizumab in CD patients either naïve or exposed to tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors (TNFi).MethodsPatients treated with vedolizumab or ustekinumab for luminal CD were included from six centers in China from May 2020 to July 2023. Steroid-free remission, clinical remission, objective response, and remission at Weeks 26 and 52 were evaluated in a retrospective multicenter propensity score-weighted cohort.FindingsA total of 536 patients were included (386 ustekinumab, and 150 vedolizumab). After adjustment, ustekinumab showed higher rates of clinical remission (56.4% vs. 47.8%, P = 0.005), steroid-free remission (55.4% vs. 46.1%, P = 0.003), and objective response (67.8% vs. 42.7%, P < 0.001) than vedolizumab at Week 26. At Week 52, ustekinumab exhibited significantly higher rates of clinical remission (65.8% vs. 37.5%, P < 0.001), steroid-free remission (65.8% vs. 37.5%, P < 0.001), objective response (66.7% vs. 23.8%, P < 0.001), and objective remission (31.4% vs. 12.7%, P < 0.001). Subgroup analyses revealed that ustekinumab had higher rates of clinical remission, steroid-free remission, and objective response at Weeks 26 and 52, and objective remission at Week 52 in TNFi-exposed patients, while ustekinumab showed higher rates of objective response at Weeks 26 and 52 and clinical remission, steroid-free remission and objective remission at Week 52 in TNFi-naïve patients. Adverse event rates were similar between the groups (4.9% ustekinumab vs. 6.7% vedolizumab, P = 0.423).InterpretationUstekinumab showed superior clinical and objective outcomes compared to vedolizumab, with comparable safety outcomes. The therapeutic superiority was observed in both short-term and long-term phases in TNFi-exposed patients, and the long-term phase in TNFi-naïve patients.FundingNational Natural Science Foundation of China, Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation, Key Research Projects of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, the program of Guangdong Provincial Clinical Research Center for Digestive Diseases, and National Key Clinical Discipline.

Project description:We explored the involvement of the muscle-specific intermediate filament protein desmin in the model of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced cardiomyopathy. We demonstrate that in mice overexpressing TNF-alpha in the heart (alpha-myosin heavy chain promoter-driven secretable TNF-alpha [MHCsTNF]), desmin is modified, loses its intercalated disk (ID) localization, and forms aggregates that colocalize with heat shock protein 25 and ubiquitin. Additionally, other ID proteins such as desmoplakin and beta-catenin show similar localization changes in a desmin-dependent fashion. To address underlying mechanisms, we examined whether desmin is a substrate for caspase-6 in vivo as well as the implications of desmin cleavage in MHCsTNF mice. We generated transgenic mice with cardiac-restricted expression of a desmin mutant (D263E) and proved that it is resistant to caspase cleavage in the MHCsTNF myocardium. The aggregates are diminished in these mice, and D263E desmin, desmoplakin, and beta-catenin largely retain their proper ID localization. Importantly, D263E desmin expression attenuated cardiomyocyte apoptosis, prevented left ventricular wall thinning, and improved the function of MHCsTNF hearts.
