Overview
Although sarcoidosis was first introduced as a clinical entity 140 years ago, the main cause of the disease remains elusive. The contributory factors are believed to be a combination of: antigens(environment), genetic factors, and the immune system.
Causes
Environmental factors
Because sarcoidosis commonly involves lung, eyes, and skin, several environmental/occupational exposures are believed to be associated with the risk for sarcoidosis:
- Rural setting, emmisions from wood-burning stove & firplace, tree pollen[1][2]
- Inorganic particles[3]
- Pesticides[4]
- Mold exposure[5]
- Navy personnel[6]
- Firefighters and first responders involved in World Trade Center disaster[7][8][9][10]
- Metalworking (especially tittanium)[5]
- Photocopier exposure[11]
- Hairdressers[12]
- Healthcare workers[13]
Genetic factors
Sarcoidosis is the result of environmental triggers acting upon an immunogenetically susceptible host[19]. The importance of genetic factors in pathophysiology of sarcoidosis is supported by familial clusters of sarcoidosis[20][21].
- The first-degree relatives are belived to be have 5 fold increased risk of developing sarcoidosis[22].
- HLA-DRB1*1101 is associated with cardiac sarcoidosis and hypercalcemia[23].
- HLA-DRB1*01 and HLA-DRB1*04 are protective against sarcoidosis[24].
- In patients diagnosed with Lofgren's Syndrome, HLA-DRB1*03 is 4 times higher than normal individuals[25].[26][27].
- BTNL-2(butyrophilin-like 2) gene, is associated with 23% of sarcoidosis risk in German individuals[28].
Immune System
Sarcoidosis is the result of environmental triggers acting upon an immunogenetically susceptible host[19].
- Higher expression of serum amyloid A which originates from macrophages and giant cells, is observed in sarcoidosis granuloma[29].
- Immune system exhaustion and failure of effective antigen clearence, is proposed as a contributing mechanism for the disease. NK T-cells are depleted in sarcoidosis[30].
Drug side effect
- Ipilimumab[34]
- Infliximab[35]
