Model Early Immunologic Stages of Pediatric Hematological Pre-lupus (PRELUDE)

25. juni 2026 oppdatert av: University Hospital, Bordeaux

Model Early Immunologic Stages of Pediatric Hematological Pre-lupus in Order to Prevent SLE in Children.

Immunologic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in children is a pre-lupus condition if associated with the presence of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA), providing a unique model for understanding the natural history of autoimmunity, particularly that of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We will describe the shared and/or unique immunological pathways involved at diagnosis in 70 children with ITP and in 20 children with SLE, and compare them between ITP-ANA- (more often transient), ITP-ANA+ (pre-lupus condition, more often persistent) and SLE

Detaljert beskrivelse

The development of an autoimmune disease (AID) requires several years. In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) appear several years before the onset of the disease. However, it is difficult to identify the early mechanisms of autoimmunity in humans as most patients' samples are obtained at the time of diagnosis.

We hypothesize that immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in children provides a unique model for understanding the initial mechanisms leading to autoimmunity. Children with ITP have common immune system dysfunctions leading to the production of anti-platelet antibodies. However, despite this supposedly common dysfunction, the course and degree of loss of tolerance of the immune system are very heterogeneous: the disease is transient in 75 to 80% of cases, and 15 to 20% of children with ITP have ANA and their course is usually persistent or chronic. This subgroup of children with hematological AID, ITP ANA+ meets the criteria for a broader form of AID: pre-lupus. We have recently shown that 16% of these children with pre-lupus / ITP-ANA+ progressed to complete SLE within a median of 3.8 years. Why do some children have transient or persistent ITP? limited or systemic ITP? We aim to describe the shared and/or unique immunological pathways involved at diagnosis in children with ITP ANA- (transient or persistent), with ITP ANA+ (pre-lupus condition, transient or persistent), and in patients with SLE (persistent by definition) In this exploratory, prospective, bi-centric cohort study, we will include 70 children with ITP and 20 children with SLE newly diagnosed, over 36 months with a 3-month follow-up for children with ITP-ANA- and SLE and a 48-month follow-up for children with ITP-ANA+. ANA positivity will be defined by a titer ≥ 1/160. Blood samples will be collected at inclusion and at 3 months (bio-collection), and further each 6 months for children with ITP-ANA+. ITP status will be defined at 3 months: transient or persistent. We will analyze the signaling pathways (B and T lymphocytes, cytokines, disruption of tolerance and inactivation of X) involved in these different pathophysiological distinct subgroups

Tidsramme
Characterisation of B and T lymphocyte populations
Tidsramme: Baseline, Month 3 visit.
Characterisation of B and T lymphocyte populations through the study of surface markers and intracellular factors. This panel will, in particular, enable the identification of effector B cells such as plasma blasts, subsets of auto-reactive 'double-negative' (DN) B cells, regulatory B cells, and follicular T helper (Tfh) and peripheral extra-follicular T helper (Tph) cells. Each population will be compared between the patients and the control group.
Baseline, Month 3 visit.
Plasma markers
Tidsramme: Baseline, Month 3 visit.
Soluble cytokines and factors regulating B-cell survival (BAFF, TACI, IL-6, IL-12p70, IFN-γ, IFN-β, TGF-β, and the IFN-regulated chemokine CXCL10) will be quantified in plasma using a customised multiplex Luminex assay. Interferon alpha levels will be specifically measured using ultra-sensitive SIMOA (Single Molecule Array) technology.
Baseline, Month 3 visit.
Plasma markers
Tidsramme: Baseline, Month 3 visit.
Circulating plasma autoantigens - soluble P-selectin and CD40L derived from platelet activation - will be measured by ELISA. The levels of circulating and mitochondrial DNA will be measured by quantitative RT-PCR in collaboration with V. Sisirak (DR CNRS, Immunoconcept). The overall activity of plasma DNases will be determined by an in vitro DNA degradation assay.

Using single-cell RNA sequencing, a single-cell transcriptomic analysis, we will be able to quantify and analyse the transcriptomes of lymphocytes B This will enable us to characterise heterogeneous cell populations, as well as to reconstruct cell development pathways and model transcriptomic dynamics.

This technique will enable the modelling of signalling pathways involving B lymphocytes in the subgroup of ITP patients with positive AAN titres, and the development of an algorithm and a mathematical model of the progression of these cellular and molecular markers

Tidsramme: Baseline, Month 3 visit , Month 6 visit , Month 12 visit, Month 18 visit, Month 24 visit , Month 30 visit, Month 36 visit, Month 42 visit and Month 48 visit.

Using single-cell ATAC sequencing, we will be able to analyse the regions of DNA accessible to the transcription machinery. This will enable us to identify regulatory programmes such as signalling pathways. The analysis will also reveal heterogeneity amongst B-cell subpopulations, which may respond differently to signals.

This will provide insight into the epigenetic status of genes, or at least into which factors regulate this signalling pathway and how the cell adjusts its response depending on its situation or stage of maturity, or on the signal itself.
