To perform a literature review and identify the characteristics of complement abnormalities in ITP. PUBMED was used to collect the literature published up to June 2022 related to ITP and complement abnormalities. Primary and secondary ITP (CTD-related) were examined. Out of the collected articles, 17 were extracted. Eight articles were related to primary ITP (pITP) and 9 to CTD-related ITP. Analysis of the literature revealed that the ITP severity was inversely correlated with serum C3, C4 levels in both ITP subgroups. In pITP, a wide range of complement abnormalities was reported, including abnormalities of initial proteins, complement regulatory proteins, or the end products. In CTD-related ITP, reported complement abnormalities were limited to the initial proteins. Activation of the early complement system, mainly through activation of C3 and its precursor protein C4, was reported for both ITPs. On the other hand, more extensive complement activation has been reported in pITP.","PeriodicalId":37286,"journal":{"name":"Immunological Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"182-190"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9524030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Large-scale clinical trials on AD utilizing JAK inhibitors and biologic reagents, such as dupilumab, which targets the IL-4Rα receptor subunit of the Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13, have yielded highly favorable results in comparison to traditional therapies. This indicates that therapeutic strategies based on molecular biology are efficacious in clinical settings. However, in September 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indicated that tofacitinib, a JAK inhibitor, may carry various risks, including severe heart disease. Similar concerns have been raised for other JAK inhibitors, and further safety evaluations are underway. Thus, human biology involving JAKs appeared more complicated than we expected. In this article, we provide an overview of the molecular mechanisms of AD and examine the molecular targeting drugs for AD from the perspective of JAK-related biology.","PeriodicalId":37286,"journal":{"name":"Immunological Medicine","volume":"46 3","pages":"112-120"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9919927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ruxolitinib, the first JAK inhibitor approved for clinical use, improves splenomegaly and ameliorates constitutional symptoms in both myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera patients. Ruxolitinib is also useful for controlling hematocrit levels in polycythemia vera patients who were inadequately controlled by conventional therapies. Furthermore, pretransplantation use of ruxolitinib may improve the outcome of allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in myelofibrosis. In contrast to these clinical merits, evidence of the disease-modifying action of ruxolitinib, i.e., reduction of malignant clones or improvement of bone marrow pathological findings, is limited, and many myelofibrosis patients discontinued ruxolitinib due to adverse events or disease progression. To overcome these limitations of ruxolitinib, several new types of JAK inhibitors have been developed. Among them, fedratinib was proven to provide clinical merits even in patients who were resistant or intolerant to ruxolitinib. Pacritinib and momelotinib have shown merits for myelofibrosis patients with thrombocytopenia or anemia, respectively. In addition to treatment for myeloproliferative neoplasms, recent studies have demonstrated that JAK inhibitors are novel and attractive therapeutic options for corticosteroid-refractory acute as well as chronic graft versus host disease.","PeriodicalId":37286,"journal":{"name":"Immunological Medicine","volume":"46 3","pages":"131-142"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9953916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He presented reduced erythrocyte and platelet counts, hyperferritinemia, high sIL-2R levels, and severe hypocomplementemia. We diagnosed hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis (HUVS), and his symptoms as well as laboratory findings improved following treatment with mPSL 1000 mg/day for 3 days and PSL 40 mg/day. Twelve weeks following treatment initiation, the patient relapsed with fever, sore throat, pancytopenia, and hyperferritinemia when the PSL dose was reduced to 12.5 mg/day. Bone marrow biopsy and MRI presented fatty marrow and hemophagocytosis. The patient's blood cells started recovering using ATG + CsA + EPAG therapy for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). This is the first case report of HUVS and HLH following SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination. It is presumed that SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine can induce the excessive production of certain types of cytokines, such as TNF-α, IL-1, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and IL-17 as a consequence of IL-6 Amplification (IL-6 Amp). SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-vaccines can cause disruption of immune homeostasis in healthy individuals.
