概括
使用Etanercept的辅助抗瘤坏死因子α (TNFα) 治疗对于胰腺移植接受者来说是安全的. 虽然它没有改善胰腺存活率,但它显著减少了排斥发作,而不会增加感染.
科学领域:
- 移植免疫学 移植免疫学
- 免疫抑制策略 免疫抑制策略
- 优化移植的生存率,优化移植的生存率.
背景情况:
- 胰腺全移植失败是一个重大的临床挑战,通常是由血栓形成和排斥驱动的.
- 目前的免疫抑制疗法需要优化,以减轻排斥严重程度并改善长期移植存活率.
- 抗瘤坏死因子α (TNFα) 治疗对胰腺移植结果的作用尚未得到充分证实.
研究的目的:
- 评估添加Etanercept,一种抗TNFα疗法,在胰腺移植中加入标准免疫抑制的安全性和有效性.
- 评估辅助抗TNFα治疗对胰腺异位移植存活率,排斥率和传染性并发症的影响.
- 为了确定抗TNFα治疗是否可以减少胰腺移植后排斥事件的发生率或严重性.
主要方法:
- 在2010年至2022年期间进行的236次胰腺移植的回顾性分析.
- 自2017年以来,接受标准免疫抑制治疗的患者和接受辅助Etanercept (抗TNFα疗法) 的患者之间的结局比较.
- 多变量分析以调整混变量并评估胰腺存活率,排斥期和传染性并发症 (细菌,真菌,CMV,BK病毒).
主要成果:
- 在Etanercept和未接受治疗组之间,胰腺存活率没有显著差异 (HR = 0.92,CI 95% = 0.48;1.73,p = 0.79).
- 在多变量分析中,辅助抗TNFα疗法 (Etanercept) 显著降低了胰腺排斥事件的发生率 (HR = 0.36,CI 95% = 0.14;0.95,p = 0.04).
- 与对照组相比,接受Etanercept的患者没有出现细菌,真菌,CMV或BK病毒感染的风险更高.
结论:
- 辅助抗TNFα治疗 (Etanercept) 对胰腺移植接受者来说是安全的,因为它不会增加感染性并发症.
- 尽管血栓形成率相似,但抗TNFα疗法显著减少胰腺排斥发作.
- 这些发现支持考虑抗TNFα疗法作为辅助治疗,以减轻胰腺移植接受者的排斥.

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Biologic Agents: Anti-TNF
103
Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), a proinflammatory cytokine, contributes significantly to the inflammation seen in Crohn's disease. It exists as soluble TNF and membrane-bound TNF, with actions mediated through TNF receptors (TNFR). TNFR activation leads to the release of proinflammatory cytokines, T-cell activation, collagen production, and leukocyte migration, all contributing to inflammation in Crohn's disease. Anti-TNF monoclonal antibodies, namely infliximab (Remicade), adalimumab...

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Immunomodulatory Agents
109
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder marked by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. Various treatment strategies for Crohn's disease are employed, such as immunomodulatory agents, glucocorticoids, and biologics or anti-TNF therapy. Azathioprine (Imuran), a commonly used immunomodulatory drug for Crohn's disease, is converted in the body to mercaptopurine, which inhibits purine biosynthesis and cell proliferation. Both are utilized in severe cases of Inflammatory Bowel...

Tumor Immunotherapy
432
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.

Acute Pancreatitis II: Clinical Manifestations and Management
75
Acute pancreatitis presents a complex medical emergency characterized by rapid onset inflammation of the pancreas, demanding timely diagnosis and management to prevent complications. The condition primarily manifests through severe upper abdominal pain that often radiates to the back. This pain intensifies following the consumption of fatty foods. Accompanying symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, fever, dyspnea, cyanosis, and jaundice can vary in intensity but significantly...

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Glucocorticoids
91
Glucocorticoids, a class of anti-inflammatory drugs, are pivotal in treating moderate to severe Crohn's disease by inducing remission. They exhibit their anti-inflammatory action by inhibiting the production of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1, and chemokines like IL-8. In addition, they reduce the expression of inflammatory cell adhesion molecules and inhibit gene transcription of nitric oxide synthase, phospholipase A2, cyclooxygenase-2...
