Activation of Cardiovascular Inflammation and Wnt Signaling in Spondyloarthritis: Insights from the HLA-B27 Transgenic Rat Model
Background/Purpose: Despite the well-documented link between cardiovascular (CV) disease and spondyloarthritis (SpA), no animal studies have empirically validated this connection or integrated SpA, vascular inflammation,…Abstract Number: 0049 • ACR Convergence 2024
Inflammatory Priming by Anti-MAA Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: We have previously shown that autoantibodies targeting malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde protein adducts (anti-MAA) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients boosted osteoclast differentiation and induced bone erosion in mice…Abstract Number: 0032 • ACR Convergence 2024
Increased Expression of Malondialdehyde-Acetaldehyde and Citrullinated Proteins in Myocardial Tissues During the Early Evolution of Collagen-Induced Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The risk of heart failure (HF) is increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), although mechanisms of myocardial dysfunction underlying HF development in RA…Abstract Number: 0074 • ACR Convergence 2024
Tofacitinib Therapy Ameliorates Inflammation in a Mouse Model of Psoriasis and Arthritis by Inducing Type 2 Immunity
Background/Purpose: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA), a chronic progressive inflammatory arthritis, affects peripheral joints and causes patient disability. PsA patients also have skin plaques initiated by activation…Abstract Number: 0037 • ACR Convergence 2024
Clonal Haematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential (CHIP) Is Associated with Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Clonal haematopoiesis (CH) of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is defined as the detection of recurrent somatic mutations in genes that are known to drive haematological…Abstract Number: 0033 • ACR Convergence 2024
Refined Autoantibody Profiles in RA Reveal That Primarily ACPAs Binding Non-glycine Citrulline Motifs Are Associated with Shared Epitope Alleles
Background/Purpose: Carriage of HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles and a history of smoking, have been identified as the most prominent risk factors for development of…Abstract Number: 0044 • ACR Convergence 2024
Synovial Phosphoproteomic Profiling in Early and Advanced Rheumatoid Arthritis (R4RA Trial) Identifies Specific Signaling Pathways Linked to Distinct Pathotypes
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an incurable autoimmune disease where response to therapy is heterogenous. Clinically indistinguishable RA patients can be classified histo-pathologically into three…Abstract Number: 0040 • ACR Convergence 2024
Targeting Complement Factor B (CFB) via a Novel siRNA Therapy (AZD6912) to Treat Inflammatory Arthritis
Background/Purpose: New precision medicine guided therapies targeting alternate disease driving processes are required to improve clinical outcomes in RA. The complement pathway has long been…Abstract Number: 0035 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-CCP Generation in the Female Genital Tract Is Increased During the Postpartum Period in Women Without RA
Background/Purpose: It is well established that women develop RA approximately three times more often than men. In addition, several risk factors for RA uniquely effect…Abstract Number: 0038 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Role of Dual Specificity Phosphatase 22 (DUSP22) in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Mechanism and Genetic Investigations
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a debilitating autoimmune disorder characterized by chronic inflammation and joint damage. This study investigates the role of Dual Specificity Phosphatase…Abstract Number: 0030 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Impact of Treadmill Exercise on Various Stages of Osteoarthritis Progression in a Murine Osteoarthritis Model
Background/Purpose: Evidence supports the benefits of exercise on joint health and its protective effects against osteoarthritis (OA) progression [Allen J, A&R, 2010]. However, most animal…Abstract Number: 0004 • ACR Convergence 2024
Beyond Antibodies and CAR-T: Topologically Engineered, Superdimeric Antibody NK Engagers and T Cell Engagers for B Cell Depletion Demonstrating Cooperative Binding to Target and Effector Cells
Background/Purpose: The dramatic demonstration of CD19 CAR-T efficacy in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), idiopathic inflammatory myositis, and systemic sclerosis by Georg Schett and colleagues (F.…Abstract Number: 0099 • ACR Convergence 2024
Modulating Pentose Phosphate Pathway Metabolism to Temper Neutrophil Hyperactivity in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil hyperactivity and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release (NETosis) appear to play important roles in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) pathogenesis. To kill microbes and propel…Abstract Number: 0101 • ACR Convergence 2024
Metabolomic Profiling Reveals a Role for Citric Acid Cycle Dysfunction in Antiphospholipid Syndrome Neutrophils
Background/Purpose: As early effectors of the immune response, neutrophils must access energy rapidly. Neutrophils rely on glycolysis for antimicrobial functions such as phagocytosis and reactive…Abstract Number: 0027 • ACR Convergence 2024
Cation Channel TRPC1 Regulates Mesenchymal Stem Cell Differentiation and Bone Formation
Background/Purpose: Transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1), a non-selective cation channel, is characterized by its high permeability to calcium ions (Ca2+), a vital second messenger…
