39 - Autoinflammatory Disorders Flashcards
Autoinflammatory disorders are diseases of the _____ immune system
Innate
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) are caused by gain of function mutations in ______, the gene encoding ______
NLRP3
NLRP3 or cryopyrin
The spectrum of Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) includes

- Chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCO) or Neontal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)
- Inherited
- Inherited
- Sporadic
Common characteristic feature in cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), and usually the first sign of disease
Urticarial skin lesions
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) and Schnitzler syndrome vs common urticaria
CAPS and Schnitzler syndrome - usually nonpruritic or only slightly itchy; unresponsive to antihistamines

- Rare
- Frequent
- Frequent
CAPS: Radiographs of the long bones reveal epiphyseal overgrowth that is characteristic and unique to
Chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCO) or Neontal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)
Genetic testing for NLRP3 mutations:
- Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS)
- Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS)
- Chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCO) or Neontal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)
- Almost all are mutation-positive
- Almost all are mutation-positive
- Not all have a detectable mutation
First drug use to treat Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS)
Anakinra
Two longer-acting IL-1 antagonists
Rilonacept
Canakinumab
Coexistence of a monoclonal IgM gammopathy is a diagnostic feature of
Schnitzler syndrome
Some Schnitzler syndrome patients have been shown to have mosaicism of ______ mutations
NLRP3
Patients with Schnitzler syndrome present with the first syndrome around
50 years of age or older
Usually the first sign of Schnitzler syndrome
Recurrent urticarial skin lesions
Characteristic feature of Schnitzler syndrome and distinguishes it from Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS)
Monoclonal gammopathy, mostly IgM kappa light chain
Prognosis of Schnitzler syndrome depends on the
Possible evolution to lymphoproliferative disorder
Deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA) is cause by mutations in _____, the gene coding ______
IL1RN
IL-1Ra
Manifests as perinatal to several months of age-onset pustular skin eruption, with oral mucosal lesions, failure to gain weight and painful joint swelling
Deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA)
Characteristic radiographic findings include balloon-like widening of the anterior rib ends, periosteal elevation of multiple long bones, and multifocal osteolytic lesions
Deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA)
Not a typical feature of Deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA)
High fever
Deficiency of the IL-36 receptor antagonist (DITRA) is caused by mutations in _____, the gene coding ______
IL36RN
IL-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra)
Lack of the negative regulator IL-36Ra leads to aberrant IL-36 signaling and subsequent overproduction of _____, a strong neutrophil chemoattractant, in keratinocytes
IL-8
Deficiency of the IL-36 receptor antagonist (DITRA) is termed as a monogenic form of
Generalized pustular psoriasis
Deficiency of the IL-36 receptor antagonist (DITRA) disease flares are thought to be triggered by
Viral or bacterial infections Medications (amoxicillin) Mensturation Pregnancy Withdrawal of retinoid therapy
Deficiency of the IL-36 receptor antagonist (DITRA) vs Generalized pustular psoriasis
DITRA - no joint involvement
CARD14-mediated pustular psoriasis (CAMPS) or psoriasis 2 (PSORS2) is caused by a gain-of-function mutations in
CARD14 or CARMA2
CARD14 is primarily expressed in
Epidermal keratinocytes
Most common and the first genetically characterized monogenic autoinflammatory disorder
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF)
