Targeting IL-17 in psoriatic arthritis.

ABSTRACT: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic and progressive inflammatory arthritis intimately associated with psoriasis, and can be an impairing disease that leads to reduced quality of life and significant morbidity. Treatment often requires TNF antagonists, yet many patients with PsA are not responsive to the standard anti-TNF therapies. The interleukin-17 (IL-17)/IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) family has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of PsA and psoriasis. Much enthusiasm has been generated for the development of biologics that target the IL-17 signaling pathway directly or indirectly, many of which have produced striking results in the setting of psoriasis and PsA. Herein, we review the role of IL-17 and the IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) in the pathogenesis of PsA, as well as the clinical evidence for IL-17 and IL-17R targeted therapeutics.

The IL-17/IL-23 Axis and Its Genetic Contribution to Psoriatic Arthritis.

Project description:Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease belonging to the family of spondyloarthropathies (SpA). PsA commonly aggravates psoriasis of the skin and frequently manifests as an oligoarthritis with axial skeletal involvement and extraarticular manifestations including dactylitis, enthesitis, and uveitis. The weight of genetic predisposition to psoriasis and PsA is illustrated by the concordance rates in monozygotic twins which clearly demonstrate that genomics is insufficient to induce the clinical phenotype. The association of PsA with several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the IL23R locus and the involvement of Th17 cells in the immunopathogenesis of PsA clearly put the IL-23/IL-17 axis in the spotlight. The IL-23 and IL-17 cytokines have a pivotal role in the chronic inflammation of the synovium in PsA and are also prominent in the skin lesions of those with PsA. In this review, we focus on the genetic association of the IL-23/IL-17 axis with PsA and the contribution of these master cytokines in the pathophysiology of the disease, highlighting the main cell types incriminated in PsA and their specific role in the peripheral blood, lesional skin and joints of patients. We then provide an overview of the approved biologic drugs targeting the IL-23/IL-17 axis and discuss the advantages of genetic stratification to enhance personalized therapies in PsA.

Mini Review: New Treatments in Psoriatic Arthritis. Focus on the IL-23/17 Axis.

Project description:Psoriasis, an inflammatory skin disease, and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), an inflammatory arthritis, share clinical, genetic, and pathogenic factors and may be summed as one disease, the psoriatic disease. Interleukin (IL)-17 plays a major role in the development of both psoriasis and PsA. IL-23 is important in the proliferation and maintenance of IL-17, and therefore, cytokines of the IL-23/IL-17 axis attracted much interest as therapeutic targets in psoriasis and PsA. Therapeutic agents targeting the IL-23/IL-17 axis have been proven to be very effective in psoriasis and PsA, some are already in the therapeutic armamentarium and others are in the development. Some agents, target IL-23 and others IL-17 and include anti-IL-12/IL-23 p40 (ustekinumab, briankizumab), anti-IL-23p19 (guselkumab, tildrakizumab, risankizumab, brazikumab, mirikizumab), anti-IL-17A (secukinumab, ixekizumab), dual anti-IL-17A and anti-IL-17F (bimekizumab), or anti-IL-17 receptor (brodalumab) monoclonal antibodies. Janus tyrosine kinase(JAK) inhibitors also directly affect IL-23 and, thus, IL-17. After the first-generation pan-JAK inhibitors have been shown efficacy (tofacitinib, baricitinib), new-generation selective JAK inhibitors (filgotinib, upadacitinib) are under investigation in psoriasis and PsA.

Mannan-induced Nos2 in macrophages enhances IL-17-driven psoriatic arthritis by innate lymphocytes.

Project description:Previous identification of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2) gene as a risk allele for psoriasis (Ps) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) suggests a possible pathogenic role of nitric oxide (NO). Using a mouse model of mannan-induced Ps and PsA (MIP), where macrophages play a regulatory role by releasing reactive oxygen species (ROS), we found that NO was detectable before disease onset in mice, independent of a functional nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 2 complex. MIP was suppressed by either deletion of Nos2 or inhibition of NO synthases with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester, demonstrating that Nos2-derived NO is pathogenic. NOS2 expression was also up-regulated in lipopolysaccharide- and interferon-γ-stimulated monocyte subsets from patients with PsA compared to healthy controls. Nos2-dependent interleukin-1α (IL-1α) release from skin macrophages was essential for arthritis development by promoting IL-17 production of innate lymphoid cells. We conclude that Nos2-derived NO by tissue macrophages promotes MIP, in contrast to the protective effect by ROS.

Human NCF1<sup>90H</sup> Variant Promotes IL-23/IL-17-Dependent Mannan-Induced Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis.

Project description:Recently, a major single nucleotide variant on the NCF1 gene, leading to an amino acid replacement from arginine to histidine at position 90 (NCF1R90H), associated with low production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), was found to be causative for several autoimmune diseases. Psoriasis in the skin (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) were induced with mannan by intraperitoneal injection or epicutaneous application, evaluated by visual and histology scoring. Immunostaining was used to identify macrophages, NCF1, and keratinocytes. The population of immune cells was quantified by flow cytometry, gene expression was analyzed by RT-qPCR, and the JAK/STAT signaling pathway was investigated by immunohistochemical staining and western blot. We found that the low ROS responder NCF190H variant promotes PsO and PsA (the MIP model). The NCF190H-expressing mice had hyperactivated macrophages, expanded keratinocytes, and dramatically increased numbers of γδT17 cells with upregulated IL-17A, IL-23, and TNF-α. In addition, the JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway was also upregulated in cells in the psoriatic skin tissues of Ncf190H mice. To summarize, a defined SNP (NCF1-339, also named NCF190H) was found to activate the IL-23/IL-17 axis and JAK-STAT signaling pathways, leading to hyperactivation of macrophages and keratinocytes and causing mouse psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

CXCL4 is a novel inducer of human Th17 cells and correlates with IL-17 and IL-22 in psoriatic arthritis.

Project description:CXCL4 regulates multiple facets of the immune response and is highly upregulated in various Th17-associated rheumatic diseases. However, whether CXCL4 plays a direct role in the induction of IL-17 production by human CD4+ T cells is currently unclear. Here, we demonstrated that CXCL4 induced human CD4+ T cells to secrete IL-17 that co-expressed IFN-? and IL-22, and differentiated naïve CD4+ T cells to become Th17-cytokine producing cells. In a co-culture system of human CD4+ T cells with monocytes or myeloid dendritic cells, CXCL4 induced IL-17 production upon triggering by superantigen. Moreover, when monocyte-derived dendritic cells were differentiated in the presence of CXCL4, they orchestrated increased levels of IL-17, IFN-?, and proliferation by CD4+ T cells. Furthermore, the CXCL4 levels in synovial fluid from psoriatic arthritis patients strongly correlated with IL-17 and IL-22 levels. A similar response to CXCL4 of enhanced IL-17 production by CD4+ T cells was also observed in patients with psoriatic arthritis. Altogether, we demonstrate that CXCL4 boosts pro-inflammatory cytokine production especially IL-17 by human CD4+ T cells, either by acting directly or indirectly via myeloid antigen presenting cells, implicating a role for CXCL4 in PsA pathology.

Epithelial TRAF6 drives IL-17-mediated psoriatic inflammation.

Project description:Epithelial cells are the first line of defense against external dangers, and contribute to induction of adaptive immunity including Th17 responses. However, it is unclear whether specific epithelial signaling pathways are essential for the development of robust IL-17-mediated immune responses. In mice, the development of psoriatic inflammation induced by imiquimod required keratinocyte TRAF6. Conditional deletion of TRAF6 in keratinocytes abrogated dendritic cell activation, IL-23 production, and IL-17 production by ?? T cells at the imiquimod-treated sites. In contrast, hapten-induced contact hypersensitivity and papain-induced IgE production were not affected by loss of TRAF6. Loss of psoriatic inflammation was not solely due to defective imiquimod sensing, as subcutaneous administration of IL-23 restored IL-17 production but did not reconstitute psoriatic pathology in the mutant animals. Thus, TRAF6 was required for the full development of IL-17-mediated inflammation. Therefore, epithelial TRAF6 signaling plays an essential role in both triggering and propagating IL-17-mediated psoriatic inflammation.

Adverse events associated with anti-IL-17 agents for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis: a systematic scoping review.

Project description:BackgroundAnti-interleukin (IL)-17 biological agents (BAs) have significant efficacy in the treatment of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis; however, adverse events (AEs) are common, and their safety has not been systematically evaluated.ObjectivesThe purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarize the number and corresponding rates of AEs caused by anti-IL-17 BAs in patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis to improve clinical decision-making regarding their use.MethodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were independently searched by three authors for articles on the treatment of psoriasis with anti-IL-17 BAs that were published before March 1, 2022, and included at least one AE. Dichotomous variables and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were analyzed using R software (version 4.1.3) and the Meta and Metafor software packages. Funnel plots and meta-regression were used to test for the risk of bias, I2 was used to assess the magnitude of heterogeneity, and subgroup analysis was used to reduce heterogeneity.ResultsA total of 57 studies involving 28,424 patients with psoriasis treated with anti-IL-17 BAs were included in the meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis showed that anti-IL-17A (73.48%) and anti-IL-17A/F (73.12%) BAs were more likely to cause AEs than anti-IL-17R BAs (65.66%). The incidence of AEs was as high as 72.70% with treatment durations longer than one year, and long-term use of medication had the potential to lead to mental disorders. Infection (33.16%), nasopharyngitis (13.74%), and injection site reactions (8.28%) were the most common AEs. Anti-IL-17 BAs were most likely to cause type α (33.52%) AEs. Type δ AEs (1.01%) were rarely observed.ConclusionsAnti-IL-17 BAs used for the treatment of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis caused a series of AEs, but the symptoms were generally mild.

IL-20-Receptor Signaling Delimits IL-17 Production in Psoriatic Inflammation.

Project description:IL-17 cytokines, in particular IL-17A, are critical effectors in psoriasis. Antibodies that block IL-17A are highly efficacious in treating psoriasis. Likewise, disruption of IL-17 cytokines signaling, such as via the loss of the adaptor CIKS/Act1, ameliorates inflammation in mouse models of psoriasis. IL-17A promotes a cascade of effects, including the robust production of IL-19 in both humans and mice. IL-19, along with IL-20 and IL-24, signal via IL-20 receptors and comprise a subgroup within the IL-10 cytokine family. The role of these three cytokines in psoriasis is unresolved. They have been linked to inflammatory processes, including psoriatic pathology, but these cytokines have also been reported to suppress inflammation in other contexts. In this study, we demonstrate that signaling via IL-20 receptors, including in response to IL-19, delimited aspects of imiquimod-induced psoriatic inflammation. IL-20 receptor signaling suppressed the dermal production of the CCL2 chemokine and thereby reduced CCL-2-driven infiltration of inflammatory cells into the dermis, including IL-17A-producing γδT cells. This constitutes a negative feedback, since IL-17A strongly induces IL-19 in keratinocytes. The effects of IL-17 cytokines in this inflammatory setting are dynamic; they are central to the development of both dermal and epidermal hallmarks of psoriasis but also initiate a path to mitigate inflammatory damage.

Inhibition of Interleukin-17 in Patients with Oligoarticular Psoriatic Arthritis.

Project description:IntroductionThis study evaluated the efficacy of the interleukin-17A inhibitor secukinumab in patients with oligoarticular psoriatic arthritis (PsA).MethodsA total of 84 patients with oligoarticular PsA, defined as 1-4 tender joints and 1-4 swollen joints, were pooled from the FUTURE 2-5 and MAXIMISE trials (NCT01752634, NCT01989468, NCT02294227, NCT02404350, and NCT02721966). Patients were grouped by treatment received at week 12 (secukinumab 300 mg, secukinumab 150 mg, or placebo) and week 52 (any secukinumab 300 mg or any secukinumab 150 mg). Efficacy was assessed by the proportion of patients achieving selected clinical outcomes. The predictors of Disease Activity index for Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) responses at weeks 12 and 52 were identified by logistic regression analysis.ResultsSecukinumab treatment resulted in greater achievement of DAPSA-based low disease activity (LDA), DAPSA-based remission (REM), DAPSA50, and DAPSA75 than placebo at week 12, with improvements sustained or further increased through week 52. LDA or REM was achieved at week 52 by more than 90% of patients who received either secukinumab dose, although secukinumab 300 mg resulted in the highest achievement of the stringent DAPSA75 and DAPSA REM outcomes. At week 12, younger age was associated with DAPSA LDA or REM and DAPSA50, while lower baseline swollen joint count was associated with DAPSA REM. No predictors were identified at week 52. The safety profile was consistent with the full study populations.ConclusionSecukinumab demonstrated efficacy vs placebo across several outcome measures in patients with oligoarticular PsA at week 12, with sustained or improved responses through week 52.

Role of the IL-23/IL-17 Axis in Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis: The Clinical Importance of Its Divergence in Skin and Joints.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease causing erythematosus and scaly skin plaques; up to 30% of patients with psoriasis develop Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA), which is characterised by inflammation and progressive damage of the peripheral joints and/or the spine and/or the entheses. The pathogenic mechanisms driving the skin disorder in psoriasis and the joint disease in PsA are sustained by the activation of inflammatory pathways that can be overlapping, but also, at least partially, distinct. Cytokines members of the IL-23/IL-17 family, critical in the development of autoimmunity, are abundantly expressed within the cutaneous lesions but also seem to be involved in chronic inflammation and damage of the synovium though, as it will be here discussed, not in all patients. In this review, we will focus on the state of the art of the molecular features of psoriatic skin and joints, focusing on the specific role of the IL-23/IL-17 pathway in each of these anatomical districts. We will then offer an overview of the approved and in-development biologics targeting this axis, emphasising how the availability of the "target" in the diseased tissues could provide a plausible explanation for the heterogeneous clinical efficacy of these drugs, thus opening future perspective of personalised therapies.
