The Dysregulation of NK Cells and Non-Conventional NK-T and γδ-T Cells in Individuals at Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The positivity of antibodies against citrullinated proteins (ACPA) precedes the clinical manifestation and significantly increases the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). EULAR characterised individuals…Abstract Number: 1423 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Patient-Reported Outcomes of Abatacept in Combination with MTX in Early, MTX-Naïve, ACPA Positive Patients with RA: 1-Year Results from a Phase IIIb Study
Background/Purpose: Early biologic use can improve long-term control of RA, and early use of abatacept (ABA) + MTX has demonstrated sustained improvements in selected patient-reported…Abstract Number: 22 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Monoclonal Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies Generated from RA-Derived B Cells Recognize Amino Acid Motifs Rather Than Specific Proteins
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) develop before RA diagnosis, at which point a wide range of citrullinated proteins have been shown…Abstract Number: 1504 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Utility of Serial ACPA Measurements in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Results of a Prospective Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) and rheumatoid factor (RF) define “seropositive” rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Both predict disease course, development of extra-articular features and treatment outcomes.…Abstract Number: 54 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
In a Macaque Model of RA By Immunization with Citrullinated Peptides, the Valine in the 11 Position of the DRB1 Molecule Has Greater Impacts on T-Cell Response to Citrullinated Peptides Than the 70-74 Position in the Shared Epitope
Background/Purpose: Among genetic risk factors of RA, HLA class II molecules confers the highest risk of ACPA positive RA. The shared epitope (SE) hypothesis that…Abstract Number: 1826 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
From Cancer to Autoimmunity : A New Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis Emerging from a Constitutional Genetic Approach Used in Low Penetrance Cancers
Background/Purpose: High-speed technologies for genome sequencing have completely changed the study of disease genetics, but with limited knowledge of the functional value of most genetic…Abstract Number: 67 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Intestinal Inflammation and Netosis Associate with the Presence of Stool IgA ACPA in Subjects at-Risk for RA
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and inflammation characterized by neutrophil extracellular trap (NET)osis have been detected at mucosal sites such as the lung and periodontium…Abstract Number: 1976 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Sequencing of the MHC Region Defines HLA-DQA1 As Driven Risk for Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies (ACPA)-Positive Rheumatoid Arthritis in Han Population
Background/Purpose: The strong genetic contribution of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility has been generally attributed to HLA-DRB1. However, due to…Abstract Number: 72 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Altered Serologic Responses to Epstein Barr Virus Precede Clinical Disease Development in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: EBV infects B cells and is associated with several autoimmune diseases, including RA. Prior studies have shown that patients with active classified RA…Abstract Number: 2045 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Specific Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies Profiles Are Associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis Related Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: The identification of peripheral blood markers of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) may facilitate an earlier diagnosis and provide insight regarding the pathogenesis…Abstract Number: 211 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Excess in Prevalence of Functional Disability in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Does Serologic Status Matter?
Background/Purpose: Despite the advances in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) over the recent decades, many patients with RA do not achieve remission or full physical…Abstract Number: 2046 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Serum Immunoglobulin G Targets Citrulline-Containing Immunoglobulin G Peptides in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Who Test Positive for Rheumatoid Factor and Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis patients produce a variety of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) as well as antibodies that bind homocitrullinated and malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde adducted proteins leading to…
