    Abstract The antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative properties of Passiflora alata Curtis are due to the presence of polyphenols in its composition. Our previous work showed that non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice undergoing treatment with aqueous leaf extract of P. alata present reduced insulitis in the pancreas, possibly due to its anti-inflammatory properties. However, depending on the concentration and their ability to interact with other molecules, these phenolic compounds may promote oxidation reactions in some cellular components, such as proteins and lipids, thus presenting a pro-oxidant effect. The present work aimed to evaluate the in vitro effects of aqueous leaf extract of P. alata and its polyphenols (vitexin, isoorientin, rutin and catechin) on lymphocyte proliferation and viability, the cell cycle and oxidative stress. Our results showed that T lymphocytes stimulated with concanavalin A mitogen (ConA) and in the presence of IC₅₀ concentrations of P. alata extract and polyphenols undergo cell injury via inhibition of proliferation, with these effects being more pronounced concerning CD4+ T cells (P. alata, 3.54 ± 0.34%; isoorientin, 57.07 ± 6.4%; vitexin, 16.95 ± 1.11%; catechin, 37.9 ± 4.2% and rutin, 40.14 ± 4.5%), compared to the non-treated group (77.17 ± 6.29) (p < 0.0001 for all comparisons). This process includes late apoptosis/necrosis induction (P. alata, 77.5 ± 0.7%; vitexin, 83 ± 3.3%; isoorientin, 83.8 ± 1.4%; catechin, 83 ± 1.9% and rutin, 74.9 ± 3.2, while the control presented 53.6% ± 3.1 (p < 0.0001 for all comparisons)) and mitochondrial depolarization leading to cell-death induction. Furthermore, an in vitro model of a mixed culture of NOD mice T cells with a mouse pancreatic beta-cell line (MIN6) showed increased intracellular nitric oxide and lipid peroxidation in NOD T cells submitted to P. alata extract (46.41 ± 3.08) compared to the untreated control group (33.57 ± 1.99, p = 0.01315). These results suggest that aqueous leaf extract of P. alata and the polyphenols in these leaves represent a target for translational research showing the plant’s benefits for developing new drugs with immunomodulatory properties against inflammatory diseases such as diabetes mellitus.

    Abstract Background: In 2013, Canoui-Poitrine et al. identified three hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) phenotypes by a latent class (LC) analysis, based on anatomical sites of involvement.
    Objective: To improve the classification of the gluteal phenotype (LC3) patients given their diverse lesion types and differences in clinical profile.
    Material and methods: We designed a bicentric study gathering all LC3 patients (n=83) from two hospitals. We conducted a two-step cluster analysis among them and also compared their characteristics with the rest of the HS patients (n=661).
    Results: Compared with global HS series, LC3 patients were more frequently non-obese men, with smoking habit, an associated arthropathy, and a more frequent history of pilonidal sinus. The analysis of LC3 patients yielded two clusters: cluster 1 (38.3%) included elderly female patients, with later diagnosis of the disease and more sinus tracts; cluster 2 (61.7%) encompassed more men with earlier disease onset and more nodules and folliculitis lesions.
    Limitations: The study's limitations include its retrospective nature, bicentric design, and small sample size.
    Conclusion: The heterogeneous clinical presentation of HS makes it essential to have a good classification of the patients. Gluteal phenotype could actually be classified into two "subphenotypes" with a different clinical profiles and management.
