Acute Myocarditis Revealing Adult-Onset Still's Disease.

ABSTRACT: A 34-year-old man presented with fever, palpitations, maculopapular rash, pharyngitis, left cheilitis, and bilateral gonalgia. High-sensitivity troponin I concentration was 4,900 ng/l. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed reduced global longitudinal strain. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed acute myocarditis. Adult-onset Still's disease was diagnosed, and treatment with intravenous corticosteroids and tocilizumab was initiated. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

Neutrophil gene expression in adult-onset Still's disease

Project description:Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease, characterized by fever, rash, arthritis and other systemic inflammatory manifestations like hepatosplenomegaly and serositis. Neutrophil activation is the hallmark of AOSD. Here we aimed to identify candidate biomarker and to validate its association with clinical manifestations in AOSD. Transcriptome analysis of neutrophils from treatment-naïve active AOSD patients and healthy donors was performed. Using cut-offs of >2.0 fold change with p<0.05, we identified 864 DEGs in neutrophils from patients with active AOSD compared to healthy donors, including 442 and 422 upregulated and downregulated genes in active AOSD, respectively. By gene ontology (GO) analysis, we identified several strongly enriched terms of biological process. The most significantly indicated GO term was neutrophil degranulation.

Monocyte gene expression in adult-onset Still's disease

Project description:Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease, characterized by fever, rash, arthritis and other systemic inflammatory manifestations like hepatosplenomegaly and serositis. One of the most serious complications AOSD is macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), a life-threatening condition caused by excessive activation of immune system and a cytokine storm. Clinical features of MAS include continuous high fever, hepatosplenomegaly, liver dysfunction, lymphadenopathy, hyperferritinemia, and hemophagocytosis. The prevalence of MAS in AOSD patients is estimated to be between 10–19%, but the mortality rate of AOSD-associated MAS is approximately 10–20%. The precise mechanism by which AOSD develops to MAS remains unclear. There is an unmet need to investigate the pathogenesis of MAS in AOSD in order to identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets to improve disease prognosis.
