Title: Spondyloarthritis Including Psoriatic Arthritis – Basic Science Poster
Session Type: ACR Poster Session C
Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM
Background/Purpose:
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the chronic inflammation of the skin and joints. Inflammatory processes translate into changes of the serum protein profiles, including changes in lipoprotein and glycoproteins. Here we investigate the association of plasmatic lipoprotein and glycoprotein profiles with PsA.
Methods:
Plasma samples were obtained from 50 PsA patients -classified according to CASPAR – and 50 healthy controls. Lipoprotein and glycoprotein profiles were determined using NMR. For the lipoprotein profiles, VLDL, LDL, IDL and HDL concentration, lipid composition and particle properties were quantified. The glycoprotein profile was decomposed in four reproducible peak regions: LMW, Glyc-B, Glyc-A, Glyc-Lipid and baseline. Association analysis to disease was performed using logistic regression. Classifiers were built using rpart and accuracy was evaluated using ROCs.
Results:
We found a significant reduction on cholesterol and triglyceride IDL and LDLs in PsA patients compared to healthy controls (P<0.05). This was accompanied by a reduction also in the particle number for IDL and LDLs(P<0.005). Substantial number of changes were also observed in the plasma glycoprotein patterns, including a decrease of Gly-A and Glyc-Lipid peaks (P<0.05).. Using the plasma molecular patterns to predict the presence of PsA, we found a significant classifier for the lipoprotein pattern (ROC(95%CI) = 0.87(0.81-0.94)), and an optimal classifier for the glycoprotein pattern (ROC(95%CI) = 0.91(0.85-0.97)).
Conclusion:
Our results support that plasma NMR profiling could be a source of new useful biomarkers for PsA diagnosis and management.
