BACKGROUND
Chronic erythroderma is a potentially life-threatening condition that can be caused by a variety of diseases, but approximately 30% of cases remain idiopathic, often with insufficient treatment options.
OBJECTIVE
To establish a molecular disease map of chronic idiopathic erythroderma.
METHODS
We performed single-cell RNA sequencing combined with T-cell receptor sequencing of blood and skin from 5 chronic idiopathic erythroderma (CIE) patients and compared results with 8 cases of erythrodermic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (eCTCL), 15 moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), 10 psoriasis and 20 healthy control (HC) individuals.
RESULTS
In erythrodermic CTCL, we found strong expansion of CD4+ malignant clones with a CCR7+SELL+ central memory phenotype. By contrast, CIE exhibited a pattern of low-level, but consistent expansion of CD8A+KLRK1+ T-cell clones, both in blood and skin. KLRK1 was also expressed by CCR10+FUT7+ skin-homing CIE blood T-cells that had increased proliferation rates and were absent in all other conditions. While CIE and CTCL patients lacked the strong type 2 or type 17 immune skewing typically found in AD or psoriasis, respectively, they were characterized by upregulation of MHC II genes (HLA-DRB1, HLA-DRA, CD74) in keratinocytes and fibroblasts, most likely in an IFNG-dependent fashion. However, we found strongest upregulation of type 1 immune mediators in CIE samples, both in the expanded CD8A+ clones, as well as in the tissue microenvironment.
CONCLUSION
Despite the notion that CIE might be a mere bundle of various yet uncharacterized disease processes, we found specific pathogenic signatures in these patients, that were different from other forms of erythroderma. These data might help to improve our pathogenic understanding of the blood and skin compartments of CIE, aiding in discovery of future treatment targets.
