Clinical observation of orbital IgG4-related diseases.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to observe the histopathological changes of immunoglobulin G4-related orbital diseases (IgG4-RODs), summarize the clinical manifestations and imaging features of the IgG4-RODs of the eyelids and explore the early diagnosis of IgG4-RODs. Between June 2011 and May 2015, 23 patients with non-specific orbital inflammation in the Department of Ophthalmology at the First Central Hospital of Tianjin were recruited. The serum IgG4 titer in 9 patients ranged from 4.58 to 46.70 g/l (reference value, 0.03-2.01 g/l), with an average value of 21.93±2.18 g/l. Notably, the degree of increase in the 9 patients with IgG4-RODs was different, but all were >1.35 g/l. A total of 6 cases of infraorbital nerve thickening were observed. In addition, there were 3 cases of extraocular muscle thickening and 1 patient with IgG4-ROD had an orbital tissue lesion extending along the inferior temporal septum to the left pterygopalatine fossa, with left sacral fissure widening and involvement of the left maxillary sinus. The study revealed that the thickening of the inferior orbital nerve may be a characteristic of IgG4-ROD. Therefore, on the basis of biopsy and serological examination in the clinic, early diagnosis can be combined with imaging examination, clinical manifestation and laboratory examination, so as to reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

Project description:PurposeTo identify tissue metabolomic profiles in biopsy specimens with IgG4-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and investigate their potential implication in the disease pathogenesis and biomarkers.MethodsWe conducted a comprehensive analysis of the metabolomes and lipidomes of biopsy-proven IgG4-ROD (n = 22) and orbital MALT lymphoma (n = 21) specimens and matched adjacent microscopically normal adipose tissues using liquid chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The altered metabolomic profiles were visualized by heat map and principal component analysis. Metabolic pathway analysis was performed by Metabo Analyst 4.0 using differentially expressed metabolites. The diagnostic performance of the metabolic markers was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves. Machine learning algorithms were implemented by random forest using the R environment. Finally, an independent set of 18 IgG4-ROD and 17 orbital MALT lymphoma specimens were used to validate the identified biomarkers.ResultsThe principal component analysis showed a significant difference of both IgG4-ROD and orbital MALT lymphoma for biopsy specimens and controls. Interestingly, lesions in IgG4-ROD were uniquely enriched in arachidonic metabolism, whereas those in orbital MALT lymphoma were enriched in tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolism. We identified spermine as the best discriminator between IgG4-ROD and orbital MALT lymphoma, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the spermine to discriminate between the two diseases was 0.89 (95% confidence interval, 0.803-0.984). A random forest model incorporating a panel of five metabolites showed a high area under the receiver operating characteristic curve value of 0.983 (95% confidence interval, 0.981-0.984). The results of validation revealed that four tissue metabolites: N1,N12-diacetylspermine, spermine, malate, and glycolate, had statistically significant differences between IgG4-ROD and orbital MALT lymphoma with receiver operating characteristic values from 0.708 to 0.863.ConclusionsThese data revealed the characteristic differences in metabolomic profiles between IgG4-ROD and orbital MALT lymphoma, which may be useful for developing new diagnostic biomarkers and elucidating the pathogenic mechanisms of these common orbital lymphoproliferative disorders.
