Identification of Serum Biomarkers Associated with Muscle Damage Detected on MRI in Polymyositis/dermatomyositis
Background/Purpose: Polymyositis/Dermatomyositis (PM/DM) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by muscle weakness, and cutaneous manifestations. Although PM/DM exhibits distinct disease phenotypes based on autoantibodies, assessing…Abstract Number: 1587 • ACR Convergence 2023
Mitochondrial Z-DNA and ZBP1 Drive Autoimmune Photosensitivity
Background/Purpose: Autoimmune photosensitivity is observed in type I Interferon (IFN) mediated diseases such as systemic and cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SLE/CLE) and dermatomyositis. Type I IFN…Abstract Number: 2462 • ACR Convergence 2023
Mitochondrial-Mediated Neutrophil Activation in Dermatomyositis (DM) and Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM): Insights into Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Implications
