PURPOSE: Histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL) is an inflammatory disease of unknown etiology clinically characterized by painful lymphadenopathy. This study aimed to investigate the role of interferon (IFN)-α in the pathogenesis of HNL and the clinical significance of serum IFN-α levels for the diagnosis and monitoring of HNL disease activity.
METHODS: This study enrolled 47 patients with HNL and 43 patients with other inflammatory diseases that require HNL differentiation including malignant lymphoma (ML), bacterial lymphadenitis, and Kawasaki disease. Expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) and MX1 in the lymph nodes was measured by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence staining, respectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to quantify serum cytokine levels. The results were compared with the clinical features and disease course of HNL.
RESULTS: Patients with HNL had a significantly elevated ISG expression in the lymph nodes compared with those with ML. MX1 and CD123, a specific marker of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), were colocalized. In patients with HNL, serum IFN-α levels were significantly elevated and positively correlated with disease activity. The serum IFN-α level cutoff value for differentiating HNL from other diseases was 11.5 pg/mL.
CONCLUSION: IFN-α overproduction from pDCs may play a critical role in HNL pathogenesis. The serum IFN-α level may be a valuable biomarker for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease activity in patients with HNL.
