Abstract Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the salivary glands. Most of the infiltrating cells are T cells, but other features of the disease include polyclonal B‐cell activation, systemic production of autoantibodies, and increased risk of developing B‐cell non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma. Recently, a new tumour necrosis factor, the B‐cell activating factor (BAFF; also known as BLyS), has been implicated in the polyclonal activation of B cells. Using immunohistochemistry, this study evaluated BAFF expression in labial salivary gland biopsies from 14 patients with pSS, 14 normal controls, and two patients with sarcoidosis. Labial salivary gland samples from seven patients with pSS, seven controls, and one patient with sarcoidosis were double‐stained using indirect immunofluorescence. RT‐PCR analysis was also performed on lip biopsy samples from two patients and two controls. In all 14 pSS specimens, infiltrating inflammatory cells strongly expressed BAFF protein, as did some ductal epithelial cells, but acinar cells were negative. Some B cells were present in the vicinity of the BAFF‐positive cells. In the 14 normal labial salivary glands, some ductal cells were moderately positive, but acinar cells were negative. In the labial salivary glands from the two patients with sarcoidosis, infiltrating lymphocytes were not stained. BAFF mRNA expression was confirmed by RT‐PCR in salivary glands from pSS patients. Double immunofluorescence revealed T cells and macrophages to be the main cell types expressing BAFF in salivary glands from pSS patients. In conclusion, BAFF may be expressed by T cells at the site of autoimmune damage and could play a role in the pathogenesis of pSS, particularly by triggering the activation of self‐antigen‐driven autoimmune B cells.

ABSTRACTPimecrolimus cream 1% is a topical calcineurin inhibitor for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Minimal systemic exposure to pimecrolimus has been previously observed in Caucasian pediatric patients treated with the cream twice daily for up to 1 year. The objective of this open‐label, non‐comparative, multicenter study was to assess the systemic exposure, tolerability and efficacy of pimecrolimus cream 1% when used twice daily for 3 weeks in pediatric patients of Japanese background. The patient cohort consisted of 17 Japanese infants and children (age range, 3.6 months to 11.6 years) with atopic dermatitis of at least mild severity affecting ≥10% of the total body surface area (range, 10–48%). Pimecrolimus cream 1% was applied twice daily for 3 weeks. Blood levels of pimecrolimus were determined on days 1, 10 and 22. Safety and tolerability were evaluated by monitoring adverse events, laboratory parameters, physical condition and vital signs. Efficacy parameters included the Eczema Area and Severity Index, the Investigators’ Global Assessment and the pruritus score. The median exposure to pimecrolimus cream 1% was 22 treatment days (range, 9–29 treatment days). Pimecrolimus blood concentrations were <0.5 ng/mL in 94% of samples on day 1, in 93% of samples on day 10 and in 100% of samples on day 22, with no indication of an increase with increasing body surface area treated (up to 48% of the total body surface area). No drug‐related systemic adverse events or serious adverse events were reported. Treatment was effective according to all efficacy parameters. The findings of this study indicate that the use of pimecrolimus cream 1% results in minimal systemic absorption of the active ingredient in pediatric patients of Japanese background with extensive disease.

Abstract Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease in which prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) displays an important pathogenic role. The enzymes involved in its synthesis are highly expressed in the inflamed synovium, while little is known about 15- prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) that metabolizes PGE2. Here we aimed to evaluate the localization of 15-PGDH in the synovial tissue of healthy individuals or patients with inflammatory arthritis and determine the influence of common RA therapy on its expression. Methods Synovial tissue specimens from healthy individuals, psoriatic arthritis, ostheoarthritis and RA patients were immunohistochemically stained to describe the expression pattern of 15-PGDH. In addition, the degree of enzyme staining was evaluated by computer analysis on stained synovial biopsies from two groups of RA patients, before and after RA specific treatment with either intra-articular glucocorticoids or oral methotrexate therapy. Prostaglandins derived from the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway were determined by liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry in supernatants from interleukin (IL) 1β-activated fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) treated with methotrexate. Results 15-PGDH was present in healthy and inflamed synovial tissue, mainly in lining macrophages, fibroblasts and vessels. Intra-articular glucocorticoids showed a trend towards reduced 15-PGDH expression in RA synovium (p = 0.08) while methotrexate treatment left the PGE2 pathway unaltered both in biopsies ex vivo and in cultured FLS. Conclusions Early methotrexate therapy has little influence on the expression of 15-PGDH and on any of the PGE2 synthesizing enzymes or COX-derived metabolites. Thus therapeutic strategies involving blocking induced PGE2 synthesis may find a rationale in additionally reducing local inflammatory mediators.
