Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of extra-musculoskeletal manifestations (EMMs) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) treated with a specific medication, upadacitinib (UPA15).
  • Data from five clinical trials were analyzed to compare adverse events like uveitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) among patients receiving either UPA15, a placebo, or adalimumab (ADA).
  • Results showed that most patients did not have a history of EMMs, and the occurrence of uveitis and IBD was generally low, particularly in those treated with UPA15 compared to the placebo.

HLA-B*27 was one of the first HLA alleles associated with an autoimmune disease, i.e., axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and acute anterior uveitis (B27AAU), which cause joint and eye inflammation, respectively.

Introduction: Herpesviruses, including the roseoloviruses, have been linked to autoimmune disease. The ubiquitous and chronic nature of these infections have made it difficult to establish a causal relationship between acute infection and subsequent development of autoimmunity. We have shown that murine roseolovirus (MRV), which is highly related to human roseoloviruses, induces thymic atrophy and disruption of central tolerance after neonatal infection.

Purpose: Uveitis is a heterogenous group of inflammatory eye disease for which current cytokine-targeted immune therapies are effective for only a subset of patients. We hypothesized that despite pathophysiologic nuances that differentiate individual disease states, all forms of eye inflammation might share common mechanisms for immune cell recruitment. Identifying these mechanisms is critical for developing novel, broadly acting therapeutic strategies.
