Molecular imprinting-based triple-emission ratiometric fluorescence sensor with aggregation-induced emission effect for visual detection of doxycycline. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 470:134218. [PMID: 38581878 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
The development of high-performance sensors for doxycycline (DOX) detection is necessary because its residue accumulation will cause serious harm to human health and the environment. Here, a novel tri-emission ratiometric fluorescence sensor was proposed by using "post-mixing" strategy of different emissions fluorescence molecularly imprinted polymers with salicylamide as dummy template (DMIPs). BSA was chosen as assistant functional monomer, and also acted as sensitizers for the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect of DOX. The blue-emitting carbon dots and the red-emitting CdTe quantum dots were separately introduced into DMIPs as the response signals. Upon DOX recognition within 2 min, blue and red fluorescence of the tri-emission DMIPs sensor were quenched while green fluorescence of DOX was enhanced, resulting in a wide range of color variations observed over bluish violet-rosered-light pink-orange-yellow-green with a detection limit of 0.061 μM. The sensor possessed highly selective recognition and was successfully applied to detect DOX in complicated real samples. Moreover, with the fluorescent color collection and data processing, the smartphone-assisted visual detection of the sensors showed satisfied sensitivity with low detection limit. This work provides great potential applications for rapid and visual detection of antibiotics in complex substrates.

Abstract
Antibiotics are among the most common causes of drug-induced liver injury worldwide. Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and nitrofurantoin are the most common culprits while tetracyclines are a rare cause of liver injury. Among tetracyclines, minocycline has been reported more frequently than doxycycline, which is an extremely rare cause of drug-induced liver injury. We present a healthy 28-year-old male patient from rural United States who was taking doxycycline for Lyme disease. After five days of therapy, he developed nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and significant transaminitis consistent with a hepatocellular pattern of liver injury. After a thorough workup which ruled out other causes such as infection, autoimmune diseases, liver malignancy, and vascular, structural, and metabolic disorders, his liver injury was attributed to doxycycline. We reached the diagnosis also by demonstrating a consistent temporal association between doxycycline intake and liver injury and the patient recovered completely with the cessation of doxycycline. Recognition of doxycycline as a cause of drug-induced liver injury should be considered in patients utilizing this antibiotic. Doxycycline, unlike minocycline, has a short latency period. Early recognition and discontinuation of doxycycline in our patient resulted in the complete resolution of symptoms and transaminitis preventing further morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Eosinophilia in not an uncommon findings in the intensive care unit (ICU); however, DRESS (Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) syndrome, which is characterized by a hypersensitivity reaction to drugs and manifests as eosinophilia, systemic involvement and maculopapular erythematous rash 2-6 weeks after exposure to the offending drug, is an exceptional occurrence. We present the first case described in the literature of DRESS syndrome with pulmonary involvement in the form of interstitial pneumonitis and persistent adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to proton pump inhibitors (PPI). The patient made a good recovery after withdrawal of the offending drug and long-term treatment with systemic corticosteroids. We also present a systematic review of all cases of DRESS with pulmonary involvement in the form of interstitial pneumonitis and cases of PPI-induced DRESS published to date; none of these describe pulmonary involvement.

Abstract
A novel colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescence sensor has been established based on boron carbon oxynitride quantum dots (BCNO QDs) and Ca2+ for the detection of doxycycline (DOX). BCNO QDs were synthesized by microwave-assisted method with boric acid and ethylenediamine. The fluorescence of BCNO QDs at 425 nm was quenched due to the electrostatic interaction and inner filter effect with doxycycline. Meanwhile, doxycycline was combined with Ca2+ to form a fluorescence complex, which generated a new fluorescence peak at 520 nm. The fluorescence intensity ratio (F520/F425) has a good linear relationship with doxycycline concentration, and the detection limit is 25 nM. Moreover, the fluorescence of the reaction solution showed a concentration-dependent visual color change from blue to green. In order to facilitate further application, a portable fluorescent test paper which is easy to store was prepared. The RGB values of the reaction solution and corresponding test paper were identified by smartphone, and the visual detection of doxycycline was performed by digital image colorimetric analysis. The application of smartphone and fluorescent test paper can effectively shorten the detection time and simplified the operation, providing an effective scheme for quantitative detection of doxycycline in actual samples. Overall, this work provides a method for the detection of doxycycline and shows that the BCNO QDs have great potential application in food safety.

Abstract
Doxycycline-induced liver injury is a rare phenomenon, with an unclear clinical course and etiopathogenesis. The onset of injury may be acute-to-subacute, with a pattern ranging from hepatocellular or cholestatic to mixed, and it often lasts up to several weeks. We present a case of cholestatic liver injury secondary to doxycycline use in a middle-aged woman. In patients with a history of doxycycline exposure and subsequent hepatic injury, an adverse drug reaction due to doxycycline should remain on the differential, and immediate removal of the offending agent with close monitoring of the clinical condition should be pursued.

Abstract
Background Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms syndrome (DRESS) is a delayed infrequent potentially life-threatening idiosyncratic drug reaction. Aromatic anticonvulsants and allopurinol are the most frequent causative agents. However, various reports of antibiotic-induced DRESS are available. In this review, we try to summarize reports of antibacterial antibiotic-induced DRESS focusing on characteristics of DRESS induced by each antibiotic group. Methods The data were collected by searching PubMed/MEDLINE and ScienceDirect. The keywords used as search terms were “DRESS syndrome,” “drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS),” “antibiotics,” “antimicrobial,” and names of various antimicrobial groups. Finally, 254 relevant cases with a definite or probable diagnosis of DRESS based on RegiSCAR criteria were found until 30 May 2020 and reviewed. Results and conclusion Totally, 254 cases of antibacterial antibiotic-induced DRESS are reported. Most of them are related to antituberculosis drugs, vancomycin, and sulfonamides, respectively. Rash and fever were most frequent clinical findings. Eosinophilia and liver injury were the most reported hematologic and visceral organ involvement, respectively. Most of the patients are managed with systemic corticosteroids. The death occurred in 16 patients which most of them experienced liver or lung involvement. The reactivation of various viruses especially HHV-6 is reported in 33 cases. The mean latency period was 29 days. It is necessary to perform thorough epidemiological, genetic, and immunological studies, also systematic case review and causality assessment, as well as well-designed clinical trials for better management of antibiotic-induced DRESS. Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (10.1007/s00228-020-03005-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Abstract
Medicolegal disputes are increasing in practical medicine. Medications or procedures related to acne could lead to medical malpractice. This study analyzed medical litigation associated with acne in South Korea. Acne-related judgments were searched using the Supreme Court of Korea's Written Judgment Management System based on the keyword "acne". Eleven cases were selected; eight cases were related to acne scar and three cases were related to acne. Treatment modalities such as peeling, laser treatment, photodynamic therapy and antibiotics resulted in lawsuits. Claimed sequelae of the treatments were hyperpigmentation, scar worsening, erythema, skin bumps and liver transplant. Eight cases were awarded to the plaintiff, and the others were dismissed. This study shows that various treatments for acne can cause medical disputes.

Pulmonary Manifestations of Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) Syndrome: A Systematic Review. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2019:7863815.

Abstract
Background The syndrome of drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a rare, yet potentially fatal hypersensitivity reaction, most commonly associated with anticonvulsants, sulfonamides, and allopurinol. The reaction commonly manifests as a febrile skin eruption with lymphadenopathy and malaise between two and eight weeks following drug exposure. Internal organ involvement occurs in close to 90 percent of patients, and multiple organs may be involved in approximately half of those affected (most commonly the liver, kidney, and lung). Its long latency period and its variable clinical pattern of presentation have earned it the moniker of “the great mimicker,” with delays in diagnosis leading to higher morbidity and mortality. Although less commonly affected in DRESS syndrome, lung involvement is associated with more severe clinical course and potentially worse outcome. Pulmonary symptoms may precede development of the other more common symptoms and signs of the syndrome, or they might develop later in the course of the disease. Lung involvement in DRESS presents with a plethora of manifestations from mild cough or dyspnea with nonspecific interstitial changes on chest imaging to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with life-threatening hypoxic respiratory failure. Methods We performed a systematic review of literature from the PubMed database and selected cases of definite DRESS syndrome as defined by the European Registry of Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions (RegiSCAR) with a score of 6 or more who also had pulmonary involvement. Demographic data, pattern of lung involvement, culprit medication, latency period, laboratory findings, therapy, and outcome were described and compared with the literature. Results The most common pulmonary radiographic findings in DRESS were interstitial infiltrates in 50% of cases, followed by acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) 31%. Symptoms of cough and shortness of breath (SOB) were present in 72% of patients at the time of presentation. SOB was the more common presenting symptom (81%) compared to cough (19%). In 95% of cases, another visceral organ was involved (most commonly liver or kidneys). 45% of cases were initially misdiagnosed as pneumonia and were treated with empiric antimicrobials. In a multivariate regression, a latency of 30 days or less and an age of 60 or less were associated with development of ARDS. Gender and eosinophil count were not associated with severity of pulmonary manifestations. All patients recovered, and in the vast majority of cases (95%), parenteral steroids were used for treatment in addition to supportive care and symptomatic management. Conclusion Albeit rare, DRESS is a potentially life-threatening syndrome which may present with a myriad of pulmonary signs and symptoms. Pulmonary manifestations are less common but are typically seen in more severe cases. Pulmonary manifestations may be a presenting sign of DRESS, and timely recognition is important in order to stop offending medication and decrease morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Despite the widespread use of tetracycline antibiotics since the late 1940s, tetracycline hypersensitivity reactions have rarely been described in the literature. A comprehensive PubMed search was performed, including allergic and serious adverse reactions attributed to the tetracyclines class of antibiotics. Of the evaluated tetracycline analogs, minocycline was attributed to the greatest overall number and severity of serious adverse events reported in the literature, with notable reactions primarily reported as respiratory and dermatologic in nature. Reactions to tetracycline have also been well described in the literature, and although dermatologic reactions are typically less severe in comparison with minocycline and doxycycline, various reports of anaphylactic reactions exist. Although doxycycline has been noted to have had the fewest reports of severe allergic reactions, rare descriptions of life-threatening reactions are still reported in the literature. Allergic reactions regarding tetracyclines are rare; however, adverse reaction type, severity, and frequency among different tetracycline analogs is somewhat variable. A consideration of hypersensitivity and adverse reaction incidence should be performed prior to the selection of individual tetracycline entities.

Abstract
The management and diagnosis of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is often challenging, particularly when patients are taking multiple medications. We present a 29-year-old African American man who presented with jaundice and malaise after starting bupropion and doxycycline 2 weeks prior. He was found to have acute hepatocellular drug-induced liver injury with autoimmune features, and made a complete recovery with prednisone. Although bupropion and doxycycline are both known to cause liver toxicity, a closer inspection of the signature of liver injury and a review of prior related DILI cases assigns causality more to bupropion than doxycycline.

Abstract
Background: Doxycycline is a commonly prescribed antibiotic for the treatment of acne vulgaris. Often preferred to other tetracyclines due to a safer and milder side-effect profile, doxycycline is more frequently prescribed as a treatment of this common condition. Objective: To present a case report of a young patient who developed skin eruptions over the extremities; myalgias; fatigue; swelling involving the face, hands, and feet; headache; and mood changes after 2 years of using doxycycline. She promptly developed similar symptoms after a rechallenge with doxycycline 1 year later. Results/Conclusion: This important finding will make practitioners more vigilant to the side effects of this medication despite its current safety profile and regardless of the time that a patient is using it.

Abstract
Reactivation of certain latent viruses has been linked with a more severe course of drug-induced hypersensitivity reaction (HSR). For example, reactivation of human herpes virus (HHV)-6 is associated with severe organ involvement and a prolonged course of disease. The present study discusses an HSR developed in a previously healthy male exposed to ceftriaxone, doxycycline, vancomycin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (co-trimoxazole; TMP/SMX). Initially, the patient presented clinical manifestations of HSR, as well as clinical and laboratory measurements compatible with liver and renal failure. Moreover, the patient presented skin desquamation compatible with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis. During the reaction, it was observed HHV-6 reactivation. The severity of clinical symptoms is correlated with HHV-6 titer, as well as with results of the in vitro lymphocyte toxicity assay (LTA). Serum levels of a large panel of cytokines are compared between the patient, a large population of SJS patients, and a cohort of healthy controls, using data collected by our laboratory over the years. HHV-6 was measured in the cell culture media from lymphocytes incubated with each of the 4 drugs. Moreover, we describe a new assay using cytokines released by patient lymphocytes following in vitro exposure to the incriminated drugs as biomarkers of HSR. Based on LTA results, HHV-6 reactivation and cytokine measurements, we establish that only doxycycline and TMP/SMX were involved in the HSR. As result of this analysis, the patient could continue to use the other 2 antibiotics safely.

Abstract
Drug-associated cutaneous lymphomatoid hypersensitivity reactions are rare eruptions that can clinically and microscopically mimic a bona fide lymphomatous process. Clinically, the appearance ranges from papulosquamous to purpuric. Histopathologically, these reactions simulate a wide variety of lymphoma subtypes; the most frequently reported examples resemble mycosis fungoides. We report a 61-year-old female who developed a purpuric eruption prior to engraftment of an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant for stage IV mantle cell lymphoma. Skin biopsies showed a superficial perivascular and interstitial infiltrate of large, immature-appearing mononuclear cells associated with spongiosis, papillary dermal edema and erythrocyte extravasation. The cells were immunoreactive for T-cell markers and lacked B-cell marker expression, excluding recurrence of the underlying mantle cell lymphoma as a diagnostic possibility. The cutaneous eruption was temporally linked to levofloxacin administration and resolved after discontinuation of this medication. This is the first report of a lymphomatoid hypersensitivity reaction associated with fluoroquinolone use. The histopathologic features presented in this paper underscore the potential for misdiagnosis of such lesions as lymphoma or acute myeloid leukemia, particularly in the setting of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for underlying lymphoma or leukemia. Clinical correlation, morphologic comparison to the original malignancy and immunohistochemical studies aid the dermatopathologist in rendering the correct diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While many cases of DRESS reaction to minocycline have been described, few of these involve doxycycline. CASE STUDY A 59-year-old woman of African origin was repatriated after a journey to Ghana for hyperthermia with infiltrated maculopapular exanthema, facial oedema (no mucosal involvement) and polyadenopathy. Laboratory tests revealed hypereosinophilia, hepatic cytolysis and mononucleosis syndrome. Cutaneous histology was non-specific. The patient had been taking doxycycline as antimalarial prophylaxis for three weeks before the onset of symptoms. DRESS to doxycycline was diagnosed. Patch-tests with doxycycline three months later proved negative. The patient's HLA phenotype was A3/A30 and B39/B42. DISCUSSION An intrinsic causal relationship with doxycycline was likely in this case (I3). Although patch-test sensitivity and specificity with doxycycline remains unknown in DRESS exploration, a negative result does not necessarily rule out the diagnosis. A number of cases of DRESS to doxycycline have been described recently, possibly as a result of more frequent prescription (malarial prophylaxis, acne). Subjects of African ethnicity or having specific HLA phenotypes are at higher risk of developing drug hypersensitivity. CONCLUSION This patient is the third case of DRESS to doxycycline described in the literature. The originality of this case lies in the allergological investigation using patch-tests and HLA determination.

Abstract
Rosacea is a common, chronic, skin condition characterized by recurrent episodes of facial flushing, transient or persistent erythema, papules, pustules, and telangiectasias, in a symmetrical facial distribution. The etiology of rosacea remains unknown and this condition represents a therapeutic challenge because of its chronic nature, progression, potential for disfigurement and psychological impact. Although there is no curative therapy for rosacea, the most widely used systemic agents are oral tetracycline derivatives, including tetracycline, doxycycline, and minocycline. This article reviews the available evidence for the use of doxycycline, a second-generation tetracycline, in the treatment or rosacea.
