Abstract

Introduction: Reactive arthritis (ReA) is a postinfectious, nonseptic arthritis that is characterized by an acute lower limb predominant oligoarthritis. Inflammasome activation and its contribution to autoinflammatory loop are described in spondyloarthritis (SpA). ReA may present a forme fruste of diseases with autoinflammation as in familial Mediterranean fever. Therefore, we investigated the presence of gene polymorphisms of the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene in patients with ReA. Methods: Patients of ReA presenting to a Tertiary Hospital in North India were enrolled and evaluated for MEFV gene polymorphism by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Results: Forty-nine patients (male:female – 37:12), including five juvenile ReA were included during the study. The median age was 25 (±11) years and disease duration was 0.76 (±1.33) months. Twenty-six cases were triggered by preceding enteritis and 23 by urethritis. Ten healthy controls of age 27 (male:female – 7:3, interquartile range ± 1.5) were included for comparison. All 49 patients of adult and juvenile ReA were negative for the M694V mutation. Conclusions: This is the first study assessing the prevalence of MEFV gene mutation in SpA in India. It is difficult to ascertain if the lack of association is limited to the Indian subcontinent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: Inflammation is the forerunner to fibrosis and premature aging in various systemic diseases. Hence, we hypothesized that idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) may exhibit accelerated senescence, and the serum myostatin (MSTN):follistatin system may be a reflection of early senescence events in the muscle. Methods: Patients with IIM (ACR/EULAR criteria) were recruited (2017–2019) for comparison with healthy and disease controls (DCs). Those with active infection, pregnancy, renal dysfunction, or chronic kidney disease were excluded from the study. MSTN and follistatin were estimated in sera using ELISA (R&D systems, USA). Juvenile myositis and young adults (18–40 years) were subsequently analyzed separately. Nonparametric tests were used for paired and unpaired analysis. Results expressed as median and interquartile range. Results: A total of 84 myositis (3 juvenile myositis, 40 DM, 30 PM, 11 overlap) patients (68 females) with median age 38 (27–47.0) years and median disease duration of 0.9 (2.3–5.1) years were included. Serum MSTN was lower in IIM than in healthy control (149.3 vs. 243.6 P < 0.0001) but higher in IIM as compared with DCs (149.3 vs. 85.11, P = 0.0174). MSTN levels were higher in active as compared with inactive myositis in young adults (189.6 vs. 115.8, P = 0.0349). Serum MSTN correlated with height (r = 0.3, P = 0.003) and weight (r = 0.2, P = 0.047) but not MMT8 or muscle enzymes. On follow-up, the serial MSTN estimation paralleled change in disease activity. Conclusion: Elevated serum MSTN levels in active myositis raise the possibility of accelerated senescence in the inflamed muscle tissues which need further investigation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
