Background/Purpose: Extraglandular manifestations may occur in up to 40-50% of patients with SS, including inflammatory arthralgia and chronic polyarthritis (1-3). ACPA are prototypical markers of…Abstract Number: 2433 • ACR Convergence 2023
Longitudinal Multi-Omics Single Cell Analysis Reveals Abatacept Treatment Shifts Peripheral Lymphocyte Subpopulations in Seropositive RA with Reduction of Mature B Cells and Retention of Transitional and Naive B Cells
Background/Purpose: Biologic agents of diverse molecular mechanisms of action are approved for RA, but we do not have a full understanding of the implications of…Abstract Number: 0389 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Role of anti-CCP3 Antibodies in anti-CCP2 Antibody Negative Patients with Musculoskeletal Symptoms
Background/Purpose: To investigate, in primary care, whether testing anti-CCP3 antibodies in anti-CCP2 negative individuals with musculoskeletal (MSK) symptoms, improved the prediction of inflammatory arthritis (IA)/rheumatoid…Abstract Number: 2434 • ACR Convergence 2023
Acetylated Bacterial Proteins as Potent Antigens Inducing an Anti-modified Protein Antibody Response
Background/Purpose: Gut-residing bacteria, such as E.coli, can acetylate their proteome under conditions of amine starvation. It is postulated that the (gut) microbiome is involved in…Abstract Number: 0392 • ACR Convergence 2023
Novel Diagnostic Markers for Rheumatoid Arthritis Including Anti-CarP (Carbamylated Protein), Anti-Sa (Citrullinated Vimentin) and Anti-CEP1 (Citrullinated Enolase Peptide1) Are Frequently Positive in Diagnostic Profiles
Background/Purpose: Despite the diagnostic contribution of Anti-CCP3.1 (cyclic citrillunated peptide) antibody and RF (rheumatoid factor) as classified by the 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria, approximately one-third…Abstract Number: 2450 • ACR Convergence 2023
Gene by Respiratory Disease Interactions Associated with Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Cigarette smoking, textile dust, and occupational inhalants all strongly interact with the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) shared epitope for risk of seropositive RA. Recently,…Abstract Number: 0598 • ACR Convergence 2022
An Arthritogenic Strain of Subdoligranulum Specifically Detectable in the Feces of Individuals At-risk for and with Rheumatoid Arthritis Is Bound by ACPA and Stimulates Th17 Cell Activation in Those with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: We previously demonstrated that intestinal bacteria within the families Lachnospiraceae and Ruminococcaceae are preferentially targeted by ACPA-reactive plasmablast-derived monoclonal antibodies (PB-mAbs) from dual IgA/IgG…Abstract Number: 0601 • ACR Convergence 2022
Occupational Inhaled Agents Constitute Major Risk Factors for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Particularly in the Context of Genetic Predisposition and Smoking
Background/Purpose: The lung is recognized as a primary site in the induction of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Our study aims to assess the effect of common…Abstract Number: 0605 • ACR Convergence 2022
Citrullinated Peptide-Specific ACPA Are Present in the Female Genital Tract in Premenopausal Women with and Without RA
Background/Purpose: Women develop RA ~3 times more often than men. The etiology of this sex difference remains largely unexplained. Generation of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA)…Abstract Number: 0618 • ACR Convergence 2022
Regulation of IgA Secretion Through PAD2-mediated Citrullination of MZB1
Background/Purpose: The secretion of antibody requires concerted action of several endoplasmic reticulum proteins (ERPs) in B cells. For example, marginal zone B and B1 cell-specific…Abstract Number: 0906 • ACR Convergence 2022
Patients with Seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis Have a Different Ultrasound-assessed Joint Disease Phenotype Than Seropositive Patients
Background/Purpose: Seronegative rheumatoid arthritis (SNRA) tends to be less severe in its presentation and evolution than seropositive rheumatoid arthritis(SPRA), but controversy exists because there have…Abstract Number: 0914 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Impact of Autoantibodies (RF and ACPA) on the Efficacy of Biological Disease-modifying Antirheumatic Drugs in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Background/Purpose: The impact of autoantibodies on the efficacy of bDMARDs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is not yet clear. Despite the fact that this…Abstract Number: 1203 • ACR Convergence 2022
The Association Between Anti-Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies and Subclinical Interstitial Lung Disease in Community-Dwelling Adults: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Background/Purpose: We previously demonstrated a significant association between serum anti-CCP levels and prevalence of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) in community-dwelling adults. A greater number of…Abstract Number: 1406 • ACR Convergence 2022
Integrative Multi-omic Phenotyping in Blood Identifies Molecular Signatures and Candidate Biomarkers of ACPA-negative Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: ACPA detection assays are often used for RA diagnosis due to their high specificity ( >90%). However, current ACPA assays (e.g., anti-CCP2 ELISA) have…Abstract Number: 1417 • ACR Convergence 2022
Clinical and Demographic Characteristics of Patients with RF+/ACPA+ RA and First-Line TNF Inhibitor versus Abatacept Treatment Choice in Real-World Clinical Practice
Background/Purpose: Early intensive treatment (tx) is an accepted paradigm in the tx of patients (pts) with RA with poor prognostic factors (eg, RF/ACPA seropositivity); however,…
