SAT0025 THE EFFECT OF DIMETHYL FUMARATE ON PLASMABLAST DIFFERENTIATION TRANSCRIPTIONAL PROGRAMMES IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS
2019
Background: Dimethyl fumarate (DMF), is an immunomodulatory drug approved for the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Psoriasis. The exact mechanism of action of DMF is not entirely known. Anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects have been observed, including the upregulation of NRF-2, the inhibition of TIGAR and the block of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBEL3. Further evidence from MS patients suggests a modulation on B cell activation. Although beneficial effects of DMF have been observed in animal models of lupus nephritis and limited cases human cutaneous lupus, the effect of DMF on B cell maturation transcriptional programmes in systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) has …
The growing role of precision medicine for the treatment of autoimmune diseases; results of a systematic review of literature and Experts’ Consensus
2021
International audience; Autoimmune diseases (AIDs) share similar serological, clinical, and radiological findings, but, behind these common features, there are different pathogenic mechanisms, immune cells dysfunctions, and targeted organs. In this context, multiple lines of evidence suggest the application of precision medicine principles to AIDs to reduce the treatment failure. Precision medicine refers to the tailoring of therapeutic strategies to the individual characteristics of each patient, thus it could be a new approach for management of AIDS which considers individual variability in genes, environmental exposure, and lifestyle. Precision medicine would also assist physicians in ch…
