Immunology advances have increased our understanding of autoimmune, auto-inflammatory, immunodeficiency, infectious, and other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). Furthermore, evidence is growing for the immune involvement in aging, metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases, and different cancers. However, further research has indicated sex/gender-based immune differences, which further increase higher incidences of various autoimmune diseases (AIDs), such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), myasthenia gravis, and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in females.

Background: B cell immune dysregulation plays a critical role in myasthenia gravis (MG). However, targeted B-cell therapy such as rituximab may result in long-term peripheral B cell clearance and allow for the survival of plasma cells, contributing to frequent infections and relapses. Therefore, we aimed to identify potential novel therapeutic targets that preserve part of B cell function while inhibiting antibody-secreting cells (ASCs).

Introduction: Eculizumab is a C5 complement inhibitor approved by the FDA for the targeted treatment of four rare diseases, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), and aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G-positive optic neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (AQP4-IgG+NMOSD). The current study was conducted to assess real-world adverse events (AEs) associated with eculizumab through data mining of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
Methods: Disproportionality analyses, including Reporting Ratio Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN), and Multi-Item Gamma Poisson Shrinker (MGPS) algorithms were used to quantify the signals of eculizumab-associated AEs.

Background: Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis is an autoimmune, antibody-mediated inflammatory disease of the brain characterized by the presence of IgG antibodies targeting the excitatory N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR). Previous research has established that the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) regulates the transport and circulation of immunoglobulins (IgG). Efgartigimod, an FcRn antagonist, has been shown to enhance patient outcomes by promoting IgG clearance, and it has exhibited substantial clinical efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.
