A review and roadmap of the skin, lung and gut microbiota in systemic sclerosis 

Shannon Teaw, Monique Hinchcliff, Michelle Cheng

doi : 10.1093/rheumatology/keab262

Rheumatology, Volume 60, Issue 12, December 2021, Pages 5498–5508

As our understanding of the genetic underpinnings of SSc increases, questions regarding the environmental trigger(s) that induce and propagate SSc in the genetically predisposed individual emerge. The interplay between the environment, the immune system, and the microbial species that inhabit the patient’s skin and gastrointestinal tract is a pathobiological frontier that is largely unexplored in SSc. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the methodologies, experimental study results and future roadmap for elucidating the relationship between the SSc host and his/her microbiome.

ANCA in systemic sclerosis, when vasculitis overlaps with vasculopathy: a devastating combination of pathologies

Michael Hughes, Bashar Kahaleh, Christopher P Denton, Justin C Mason, Marco Matucci-Cerinic

doi : 10.1093/rheumatology/keab278

Rheumatology, Volume 60, Issue 12, December 2021, Pages 5509–5516

In patients with SSc, the coexistence of ANCA-associated vasculitis (SSc-AAV) has been reported to be associated with a severe disease course, including significant pulmonary and renal involvement. The presence of ANCA is not uncommon in patients with SSc, and therefore clinicians must maintain a high index of clinical suspicion about SSc-AAV. p-ANCA and anti-myeloperoxidase antibodies are the most common antibodies observed. Patients typically present with clinical features of microscopic polyangiitis or renal-limited vasculitis. There are multiple areas of potential interaction in the pathogenesis of SSc and AAV, which can exacerbate/compound vascular disease. In addition, similar patterns of major internal organ involvement (e.g. lung and kidneys) are seen in both conditions. We highlight a diagnostic approach to SSc-AAV and the paucity of data to inform management. As such, SSc-AAV is typically treated as per isolated AAV, which can potentially be hazardous in patients with SSc (e.g. due to the association between high-dose steroid and scleroderma renal crisis). We propose that this rare clinical entity warrants rigorous investigation, including definition of a therapeutic strategy to ameliorate the potentially devastating combination of pathologies in SSc-AAV.

Autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation restores the suppressive capacity of regulatory B cells in systemic sclerosis patients 

João R Lima-Júnior, Lucas C M Arruda, Maynara S Gonçalves, Juliana B E Dias, Daniela A Moraes, Dimas T Covas, Belinda P Simões, Maria Carolina Oliveira, Kelen C R Malmegrim

doi : 10.1093/rheumatology/keab257

Rheumatology, Volume 60, Issue 12, December 2021, Pages 5538–5548

The rationale of autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) for autoimmune diseases is that high-dose immunosuppression eradicates autoreactive T and B cells and the infused autologous haematopoietic stem cells promote reconstitution of a naïve and self-tolerant immune system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reconstitution of different B cell subsets, both quantitatively and functionally, in SSc patients treated with AHSCT.

Expression of sterile-? and armadillo motif containing protein (SARM) in rheumatoid arthritis monocytes correlates with TLR2-induced IL-1? and disease activity

Cartilage and bone damage in RA are associated with elevated IL-1?. The effects of IL-1? can be reduced by biological therapies that target IL-1? or TNF-?. However, the mechanisms responsible for increased IL-1? and the effect of anti-TNF-? have not been fully elucidated. Recently, sterile-? and armadillo motif containing protein (SARM) was identified as a negative regulator of toll-like receptor (TLR) induced IL-1? secretion through an interaction with the inflammasome. This study set out to investigate SARM during TLR-induced IL-1? secretion in RA peripheral blood monocytes and in patients commencing anti-TNF-? treatment.

The randomized, double-blind, phase 2?b MUSE study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the type I IFN receptor antibody anifrolumab (300?mg or 1000?mg every 4?weeks) compared with placebo for 52?weeks in patients with chronic, moderate to severe SLE. Characterizing the exposure–response relationship of anifrolumab in MUSE will enable selection of its optimal dosage regimen in two phase 3 studies in patients with SLE.

Anti-ribosomal-phosphoprotein antibodies (anti-Ribos.P Abs) are detected in 10–45% of NPSLE patients. Intracerebroventricular administration of anti-ribosomal-P Abs induces depression-like behaviour in mice. We aimed to discern the mechanism by which anti-Ribos.P Abs induce behavioural changes in mice.
