ITRAQ?based proteomic analysis reveals potential regulatory networks in dust mite?related asthma treated with subcutaneous allergen immunotherapy.

ABSTRACT: Asthma is one of the most common childhood chronic diseases worldwide. Subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) is commonly used in the treatment of house dust mite (HDM)?related asthma in children. However, the therapeutic mechanism of SCIT in asthma remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the molecular biomarkers associated with HDM?related asthma in asthmatic children prior and subsequent to SCIT treatment compared with those in healthy children via proteomic analysis. The study included a control group (30 healthy children), ?Treatment group (30 children with HDM?related allergic asthma) and +Treatment group (30 children with HDM?related allergic asthma treated with SCIT). An isobaric labeling with relative and absolute quantification?based method was used to analyze serum proteome changes to detect differentially expressed proteins, while functional enrichment and protein?protein interaction network analysis were used to select candidate biomarkers. A total of 72 differentially expressed proteins were detected in the ?Treatment, +Treatment and control groups. A total of 33 and 57 differentially expressed proteins were observed in the ?Treatment vs. control and +Treatment vs. control groups, respectively. Through bioinformatics analysis, 5 candidate proteins [keratin 1 (KRT1), apolipoprotein B (APOB), fibronectin 1, antithrombin III (SERPINC1) and ??1?antitrypsin (SERPINA1)] were selected for validation by western blotting; among them, 4 proteins (KRT1, APOB, SERPINC1 and SERPINA1) showed robust reproducibility in asthma and control samples. This study illustrated the changes in proteome regulation following SCIT treatment for asthma. The 4 identified proteins may serve as potential biomarkers prior and subsequent to SCIT treatment, and help elucidate the molecular regulation mechanisms of SCIT to treat HDM?related asthma.

Project description:BackgroundAllergen immunotherapy (AIT) is a specific treatment of administering clinically important allergens to patients who have allergic diseases. In Japan, the standardized house dust mite (HDM) allergen for subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) was approved in 2015, and we then introduced rush-immunotherapy (rush-IT) using the standardized HDM allergen for HDM-sensitive asthmatics. However, little data are available on the safety and effectiveness of rush-HDM-IT, especially for Japanese asthmatics.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to examine the safety and clinical effectiveness of rush-IT using the standardized HDM for HDM-sensitive Japanese asthmatics.MethodsThirteen HDM-sensitive asthmatics who received rush-HDM-IT and 12 HDM-sensitive asthmatic controls were enrolled. To evaluate the safety, the number of systemic reaction (SR) events, including anaphylaxis, was assessed. To evaluate the effectiveness, changes in the treatment step, dose of inhaled corticosteroid, and asthma control after rush-HDM-IT and the subsequent maintenance SCIT were assessed. Changes in the HDM-induced production of type 2 cytokines from peripheral blood mononuclear cells were also evaluated.ResultsAmong the 12 patients who received rush-IT, 4 (30.7%) experienced a SR and 3 (23.1%) experienced anaphylaxis. However, the anaphylaxis was not severe (grade 3) in all cases, and they recovered in a short time. The treatment step of asthma was better and the dose of inhaled corticosteroid was lower in the rush-HDM-IT group than in the control group. The HDM-induced production of both interleukin (IL)-5 and IL-13 from peripheral blood mononuclear cells was significantly lower in the rush-HDM-IT group than in the control group.ConclusionRush-HDM-IT can be performed relatively safely in Japanese asthmatics. Furthermore, rush-HDM-IT and the subsequent maintenance SCIT provided clinical improvement in asthma patients, and was accompanied by the suppression of HDM-specific Th2-mediated systemic immune responses.

Project description:Purpose: Both subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) and sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) are effective in reducing symptoms and medication scores and inducing long-term efficacy in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR). However, SLIT has been associated with poor patient adherence. This study investigates the factors impacting dropout rates from SLIT in house dust mite (HDM)-sensitized AR patients. Methods: A retrospective study was performed to analyze dropout rates and reasons in AR patients receiving Dermatophagoides farinae (Der f) SLIT with a follow-up period of 2 years. Results: A total of 719 HDM-sensitized AR patients received Der f-SLIT. Dropout rates increased with time and most occurred after 1 year of SLIT. By month 24, 654 (91%) patients had discontinued SLIT. The dropout rates by month 24 were 100, 90.1, and 91.1% in children <5 years old, children aged 5-18 years old, and adults ≥ 18 years old, respectively. Combination with allergic asthma and mono- or multi-sensitization to other aeroallergens did not affect the dropout rates. The most common self-reported reasons for dropouts were refusal of continuation, dissatisfaction with the efficacy, transition to SCIT, and adverse effects. Refusal of continuation increased with age, whereas transition to SCIT decreased with age. Ninety-seven cases transitioned from SLIT to SCIT, and the transition rates increased with time. Comorbid allergic asthma did not affect the transition rates. However, multi-sensitization was associated with a slightly higher rate of transition to SCIT. The most common reason for the transition was dissatisfaction with the efficacy (54.6%), which was only reported by patients older than 5 years. For children who began SLIT at younger than 5 years old, the most common reason (81.2%) for transition was age reaching 5 years. Conclusions: HDM-SLIT has a very high dropout rate, which is mainly due to refusal of continuation and dissatisfaction with the efficacy. Transitioning from SLIT to SCIT may help keep these patients on AIT and thus increase adherence and long-term efficacy.
