Efficacy and Safety of Cenerimod in Patients with Moderate to Severe Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): A Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Finding Phase 2b Trial
Background/Purpose: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) regulates lymphocyte egress from lymphoid organs. In an SLE proof-of-concept study, cenerimod—a potent, selective S1P receptor modulator—reduced lymphocyte count and disease activity…Abstract Number: 1632 • ACR Convergence 2022
Novel Autoantibodies Identify Sjögren’s Disease in Patients Lacking Serum IgG Specific for Ro/SS-A and La/SS-B
Background/Purpose: Classification of Sjögren's disease (SjD) requires either Ro/SS-A autoantibodies or minor salivary gland biopsy positive for focal lymphocytic infiltrates. Up to 40% of SjD…Abstract Number: 1491 • ACR Convergence 2022
Clinically Relevant Differences in the Mobility of Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis Related to Daytime of Performance
Background/Purpose: Patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) often experience impairments of spinal mobility and physical function due to inflammation and structural damage. Back pain and morning…Abstract Number: 1685 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Presence of Anti-MAA Antibodies to Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Synovial Fluid and Sera of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Antibodies to malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde protein adducts (MAA) are increased in both the serum and synovial joint fluid from patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). These antibodies…Abstract Number: 1684 • ACR Convergence 2022
A Potent Inhibitor of PAD4 Suppresses Histone Citrullination in Vitro and in Vivo
Background/Purpose: Peptidyl arginine deaminase 4 (PAD4) catalyzes the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline, a post-translational modification that has been implicated in the auto-immune response…Abstract Number: 1682 • ACR Convergence 2022
Peptidyl Arginine Deiminase Expression and Macrophage Polarization Following Stimulation with Citrullinated and Malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde Modified Fibrinogen
Background/Purpose: Post-translational modifications (PTM) of extracellular matrix proteins, such as fibrinogen, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Citrullination, a type of…Abstract Number: 1687 • ACR Convergence 2022
A Core Inflammation Program Conserved Across Human and Murine Neutrophils
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils mediate a range of homeostatic and inflammatory processes and display substantial phenotypic and functional heterogeneity. While animal models enable important mechanistic discoveries, differences…Abstract Number: 1689 • ACR Convergence 2022
Oral Ginger Supplementation Counteracts NETosis in Autoimmune Mouse Models and in Healthy Humans
Background/Purpose: It has previously been reported that 6-gingerol, the most abundant phytochemical in ginger root, inhibits neutrophil phosphodiesterase activity and thereby counteracts neutrophil hyperactivity in…Abstract Number: 1693 • ACR Convergence 2022
Skin Pigmentation Association with Regulation of Cyclic-GMP-AMP Following Skin Exposure to UV Light
Background/Purpose: Amongst the most important cytosolic DNA sensors is Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS). Binding of DNA to cGAS results in the synthesis of the cyclic…
