Title: Systemic Sclerosis, Fibrosing Syndromes and Raynaud's - Clinical Aspects and Therapeutics Poster II

Session Type: ACR Poster Session B

Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM

Background/Purpose:

To determine possible association of Cav-1 genetic variants: rs926198, rs959173 and rs9920 with SSc and/or SSc-related ILD progression.

Methods:

Three Cav-1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs 926198, rs 959173 and rs 9920) were genotyped in a total of 630 Turkish individuals (410 SSc patients and 220 healthy subjects). Genotyping was performed using TaqMan 5’ allele discrimination predesigned assays from Applied Biosystems,  Foster City, CA, USA) in a LightCycler® 480 Real-Time PCR System (Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany). Genotyping call rate was > 98% for all the genotyped SNPs. Serum and sputum samples were collected from 54 SSc-ILD patients at 0, 6, and 12 months. Quantitative CT images were taken at 0,12 months. The possible association of Cav-1 gene SNPs and ILD progression in one-year follow up was determined.

Results:  

A total of 402 SSc patients were recruited to the study (Mean age: 48.9 (12-78) and F:M; 390:20). The clinical characteristics of patients were as follows: Limited cutaneous SSc vs diffuse cutaneous SSc were 60.4% (n=243) vs 39.6 %(n=159), respectively. Interstitial lung disease was observed in 58.6% of patients (n=222). Anti-topoisomerase I antibodies (ATA) were found in 42.6% of patients (n=176). No significant association was observed between any CAV1 SNP and ATA. Genotype analysis and minor allele frequencies of the Cav-1 rs926198, rs959173 and rs 9920 SNP in patients with SSc and controls were shown in table 1. Among  SSc-ILD patients who carried the rs959173 C minor allele displayed significantly higher CAV-1 in serum and lesser progression in ILD than in those carrying TT genotype (0.364±0.118 vs 0.247±072, p<0.001)

Conclusion:  

Our results suggest that Cav1 rs959173 C  allele may have a protective role in SSc-ILD progressions. Although a clear association of Cav 1 genetic variants and SSc was not determined in the Turkish patients with SSc, similar trends were observed with the previously published Italian cohort by Manetti M1.

All abstracts accepted to ACR Convergence are under media embargo once the ACR has notified presenters of their abstract’s acceptance. They may be presented at other meetings or published as manuscripts after this time but should not be discussed in non-scholarly venues or outlets. The following embargo policies are strictly enforced by the ACR.

Accepted abstracts are made available to the public online in advance of the meeting and are published in a special online supplement of our scientific journal, Arthritis & Rheumatology. Information contained in those abstracts may not be released until the abstracts appear online. In an exception to the media embargo, academic institutions, private organizations, and companies with products whose value may be influenced by information contained in an abstract may issue a press release to coincide with the availability of an ACR abstract on the ACR website. However, the ACR continues to require that information that goes beyond that contained in the abstract (e.g., discussion of the abstract done as part of editorial news coverage) is under media embargo until 10:00 AM ET on November 14, 2024. Journalists with access to embargoed information cannot release articles or editorial news coverage before this time. Editorial news coverage is considered original articles/videos developed by employed journalists to report facts, commentary, and subject matter expert quotes in a narrative form using a variety of sources (e.g., research, announcements, press releases, events, etc.).

Violation of this policy may result in the abstract being withdrawn from the meeting and other measures deemed appropriate. Authors are responsible for notifying colleagues, institutions, communications firms, and all other stakeholders related to the development or promotion of the abstract about this policy. If you have questions about the ACR abstract embargo policy, please contact ACR abstracts staff at [email protected].
