TL;DR: IL-17A neutralization diminished experimental peritoneal inflammation and fibrosis caused by chronic exposure to dialysis fluids in mice, suggesting that this molecule is a key player of peritoneum damage and it may be a good candidate for therapeutic intervention inPeritoneal dialysis patients.

TL;DR: The incidence rate of psoriasis induced by anti-TNF therapy is higher in women and in smokers/former smokers, and the female sex and being a smoker/former smoker were associated with an increased risk of Psoriasis.
Abstract: Background:Psoriasis induced by anti–tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) therapy has been described as a paradoxical side effect.Aim:To determine the incidence, clinical characteristics, and management of psoriasis induced by anti-TNF therapy in a large nationwide cohort of inflammatory bowel disease pati

TL;DR: RT‐PCR studies showed that in addition to several intronic splice site mutations tested, the exonic mutations c.882C>G and c.884T>G, located near the 3′ end of exon 5, also produced exon skipping, which suggests the presence of an exonic splicing enhancer (ESE) in exon5.
Abstract: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a disease caused by defects in the C1 inhibitor gene (SERPING1/C1NH). We screened the entire C1NH gene for mutations in a large series of 87 Spanish families (77 with type I, and 10 with type II HAE) by SSCP, sequencing, Southern blotting, and quantitative multiplex PCR of short fluorescent fragments (QMPSF), and we characterized several defects at the mRNA level. We found large rearrangements in 13 families, and point mutations or microdeletions/insertions in 74 families. The 13 large rearrangements included nine exon deletions, of which at least eight were distinct, two were distinct exon duplications, and two were rearrangements whose precise nature could not be determined. We confirmed that exon 4 is particularly prone to rearrangements. Thirty-six mutations were unreported, and included 10 microdeletions/insertions, 10 missense, five nonsense, eight splicing, and three splicing or missense mutations. Moreover, we detected six novel uncharacterized sequence variants (USV). RT-PCR studies showed that in addition to several intronic splice site mutations tested, the exonic mutations c.882C>G and c.884T>G, located near the 3' end of exon 5, also produced exon skipping. This is the first evidence of SERPING1/C1NH mutations in coding regions that differ from the canonical splice sites that affect splicing, which suggests the presence of an exonic splicing enhancer (ESE) in exon 5.

TL;DR: A novel automated flow cytometric classification is developed that identifies a subset of symptomatic MM patients with an occult MGUS-like signature and an excellent outcome, independently of the depth of response.
Abstract: Achieving complete remission (CR) in multiple myeloma (MM) translates into extended survival, but two subgroups of patients fall outside this paradigm: cases with unsustained CR, and patients that do not achieve CR but return into a monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS)-like status with long-term survival. Here, we describe a novel automated flow cytometric classification focused on the analysis of the plasma-cell compartment to identify among newly diagnosed symptomatic MM patients (N=698) cases with a baseline MGUS-like profile, by comparing them to MGUS (N=497) patients and validating the classification model in 114 smoldering MM patients. Overall, 59 symptomatic MM patients (8%) showed an MGUS-like profile. Despite achieving similar CR rates after high-dose therapy/autologous stem cell transplantation vs other MM patients, MGUS-like cases had unprecedented longer time-to-progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS; ~60% at 10 years; P<0.001). Importantly, MGUS-like MM patients failing to achieve CR showed similar TTP (P=0.81) and OS (P=0.24) vs cases attaining CR. This automated classification also identified MGUS patients with shorter TTP (P=0.001, hazard ratio: 5.53) and ultra-high-risk smoldering MM (median TTP, 15 months). In summary, we have developed a biomarker that identifies a subset of symptomatic MM patients with an occult MGUS-like signature and an excellent outcome, independently of the depth of response.
