Background: Mechanisms triggering the pathogenesis of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) have been identified as type I autoallergic (which is associated with IgE antibodies against autoantigens) and type IIb autoimmune (which is driven by autoantibodies to FceR1 and/or IgE). Objective: Our aim was to define presumptive endotypes in patients with CSU by using tests amenable to use in routine clinical practice. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the medical records of 394 patients with CSU with or without chronic inducible urticaria or angioedema was performed. Patients were assigned to 1 of 4 groups as follows: (1) type I endotype of CSU, if they presented at least 1 of the following: allergic disease, total IgE level of at least 40UI/mL, and positive result of skin tests to inhalant allergen(s), (2) type IIb endotype of CSU, if they presented at least 1 of following: autoimmune disease, low total IgE level less than 40 IU/mL, positive autologous serum skin test result, positive for antinuclear antibodies in a titer of at least 1:160, and elevated level of anti–thyroid peroxidase, (3) overlap of type I/type IIb endotypes of CSU, if they presented with at least 1 marker of both type I and type IIb, and (4) non–type I/type IIb endotype of CSU, if they presented with none of the markers of type I or type IIb. Results: The mean age at onset of symptoms was 34 years; 82.2% of those with CSU were female, and angioedema and chronic inducible urticaria were found in 74.8% and 31.9% of patients, respectively. Of the patients with CSU, 38% presented with the type I endotype and 51% presented with type I/type IIb overlap, whereas 9% presented with the type IIb endotype and 2% presented with the non–type I/type IIb endotype. Eosinopenia was associated with type IIb and type I/type IIb overlap as opposed to the type I and non–type I/type IIb endotypes (P = .02). Conclusions: Most patients with CSU presented with features of the type 1 (autoallergic) endotype, whether associated with type IIb (autoimmune) endotype or not. |
