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: 0501 • ACR Convergence 2022
Single-molecule Spatial Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals Distinct Cellular Networks in Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovia
Background/Purpose: Chronic joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) arises from the interactions of many cell types. Single-cell transcriptomic profiling of RA joints has identified novel…Abstract Number: 1110 • ACR Convergence 2022
Solving Sarcoidosis: A Transcriptome-based Meta-analysis of Clinical Sarcoidosis Studies Illustrates Shared Pathophysiology, Identifies Candidate Biomarkers and Suggests a Therapeutic Mechanism of JAK Inhibition
Background/Purpose: Sarcoidosis is a systemic, non-caseating granulomatous disease driven by a dysregulated immune response to environmental antigens. A wide range of clinical manifestations coupled with…Abstract Number: 1415 • ACR Convergence 2022
Different Bioactive Lipid Profile Predicts Response to TNF or IL6 Inhibitors in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Result of the CorEvitas CERTAIN Comparative Effectiveness Study
Background/Purpose: Circulating bioactive lipids can provide information about the pathogenesis of specific diseases and potentially help predict therapeutic response. Choosing the right biological therapy earlier…Abstract Number: 0519 • ACR Convergence 2022
Myeloablation Followed by Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Leads to Long-term Normalization of Systemic Sclerosis Molecular Signatures
Background/Purpose: In the randomized Scleroderma: Cyclophosphamide Or Transplantation (SCOT trial), normalization of systemic sclerosis (SSc) peripheral blood gene expression signatures at the 26-month visit was…Abstract Number: 1114 • ACR Convergence 2022
Computational Drug Repositioning and 3D Skin Models Identify EGFR and PI3K Inhibitors as Anti-fibrotic Targets for Systemic Sclerosis
Background/Purpose: Genome-wide analyses of gene expression in systemic sclerosis (SSc) skin biopsies have identified differential responses based on the mechanism of action of the therapy.…Abstract Number: 1428 • ACR Convergence 2022
Molecular and Clinical Profiling of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Predicts the Response to Rituximab
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most prevalent rheumatic diseases, mainly characterized by chronically painful, swollen joints that can severely impair physical function…Abstract Number: 0536 • ACR Convergence 2022
Change in Urinary Biomarkers at Three Months Predicts 1-year Treatment Response of Lupus Nephritis Better Than Proteinuria
Background/Purpose: A decline of urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) to < 0.5 is associated with better long-term preservation of kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN). UPCR…Abstract Number: 1118 • ACR Convergence 2022
Monocyte Transcriptomic Analysis Uncovers Heterogeneous Gene Expression Profiles in Systemic Lupus Erythematous (SLE) with and Without Subclinical Atherosclerosis
Background/Purpose: A leading cause of mortality in SLE is cardiovascular disease (CVD) through accelerated atherosclerosis: the build-up of cells and lipids in the vascular wall.…Abstract Number: 1473 • ACR Convergence 2022
Unsupervised Clustering of Lupus Patient-Reported Outcome Data Identifies Patient Groups with Differences in SLEDAI and Physician Global Assessment
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with heterogeneous clinical presentations. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) can aid in the measurement of the burden of…Abstract Number: 0554 • ACR Convergence 2022
Loss of Synovial Tissue Macrophage Homeostasis Precedes Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Onset
Background/Purpose: Synovial-tissue macrophages significantly contribute to Rheumatoid Arthritis, yet the precise nature/function of macrophage subsets within the inflamed joint remains unexplored. Here we explore the…Abstract Number: 1119 • ACR Convergence 2022
Investigating Macrophage Heterogeneity in the Esophagus and Lungs of SSc Patients
Background/Purpose: Our group has made important contributions to an emerging understanding of monocytes and macrophages as central to SSc pathogenesis. There are numerous studies that…
