| 概要 | OBJECTIVES:Myositis-specific autoantibodies (MSAs) define distinct clinical subsets of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs). The anti-nuclear matrix protein 2 (NXP2) antibody, a MSA detected in juvenile/adult IIMs, has been reported to be associated with a high risk of subcutaneous calcinosis, subcutaneous oedema and internal malignancies. The study aimed to clarify the clinical features of anti-NXP2 antibody-positive IIMs in detail.METHODS:This was a multicentre retrospective observational study on 76 anti-NXP2 antibody-positive patients. The antibody was detected via a serological assay using immunoprecipitation and western blotting. The patients were selected from 162 consecutive Japanese patients with IIMs.RESULTS:The cohort of anti-NXP2 antibody-positive IIMs included 29 juvenile patients and 47 adult patients. Twenty-seven (35.5%) patients presented with polymyositis phenotype without dermatomyositis-specific skin manifestations (heliotrope rash or Gottron sign/papules); this was more common in the adults than children (48.9% vs 15.8%, P < 0.01). Nine (11.8%) patients had subcutaneous calcinosis, and 20 (26.3%) patients had subcutaneous oedema. In addition, the proportion of patients with muscle weakness extending to the distal limbs was high (36 patients [47.4%]) in this cohort. Adult patients had a higher prevalence of malignancy than the general population (age-standardized incidence ratio of malignancies: 22.4).CONCLUSION:Anti-NXP2 antibody-positive IIMs, which include dermatomyositis sine dermatitis, are characterized by atypical skin manifestations and extensive muscular involvement. |
