“…In another study over 50% of infliximab-treated patients and 10% of etanercept-treated patients developed anti-dsDNA antibodies, suggesting differences in immunogenicity between the drugs 4 . This observation is of interest in view of the data reported in another study of anti-TNF-induced lupus that shows infliximab is associated with anti-TNF-induced lupus more frequently than etanercept or adalimumab 5 .…”

“…According to the acute-type histological damage observed in the kidney of the present case, it is unlikely that the long time use of IFX induced ATIN. We readministered IFX, because 25-50% of the reported cases of TNF-α inhibitors-associated autoimmune diseases could be rechallenged with the offending drugs without either a recurrence or worsening of symptoms (1,3,12). The low dose rechallenge of IFX did not induce renal impairment.…”

“…The limited findings presented herein seem to indicate that TNF antagonists may increase levels of autoantibodies in SLE patients, but this increase is not associated with worsening clinical disease. Further study will be necessary to determine the efficacy of TNF antagonists in cutaneous disease and to clarify the significance of treatment-associated autoantibody increases in SLE patients [19,20,21]. …”
