Increased Expression of Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Human Fibroblast Synoviocytes and Lung Epithelial Cells Following Malondialdehyde-Acetaldehyde Adduct (MAA)/Citrullinated Protein Stimulation
Background/Purpose: Recently we have shown that both malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde adducts (MAA) and citrullinated proteins (CIT) are co-localized in joint and lung tissues of patients with rheumatoid…Abstract Number: 16 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Monoclonal ACPA Promote Synovial Fibroblasts Migration Through a Peptidylarginine Deiminases (PAD) Dependent Pathway
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) play an important role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. ACPAs have different amino acid motif recognition patterns and show cross-reactivity…Abstract Number: 44 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Validation of New Genes Identified in a Molecular Bayesian Network of Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovitis
Background/Purpose: We have previously identified new key regulators of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial pathology using a systems biology approach that combined RA gene expression datasets,…Abstract Number: 815 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Expression Profiling of Genes in Rheumatoid Fibroblast‑like Synoviocytes Regulated by Fas Ligand Using cDNA Microarray Analysis
Background/Purpose: Fas ligand (FasL) is a member of tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF6) and reported to contribute to synovial hyperplasia of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Apoptosis…Abstract Number: 979 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor Alpha (PDGFRα) Blockade Inhibits Arthritis in Mice
Background/Purpose: The interplay between infiltrating immune cells and activated joint stromal cells drives inflammation, cartilage destruction, and bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Among joint…Abstract Number: 1049 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Induction of a Profibrotic Phenotype in Normal Dermal Fibroblasts by Expression of PIM1 Kinase and Demonstration of Antifibrotic Effects of Inhibition of PIM Kinases in Systemic Sclerosis Dermal Fibroblasts
Background/Purpose: There is an urgent unmet need for effective therapeutic approaches for Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by progressive fibrosis of skin…Abstract Number: 990 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Guanylate Binding Protein 5 (GBP5) Inhibits Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fibroblast Mediated Inflammation and Tissue Destruction
Background/Purpose: Guanylate binding protein 5 (GBP5), an interferon gamma (IFN-γ) inducible protein, helps to defend against invading pathogens. However, its role and properties beyond anti-viral…Abstract Number: 994 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptors (PDGFRs) and Their Implication in Inflammatory Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is inflammatory joint disease characterized by immune infiltration and synovial hyperplasia. Hyperplastic synovium contains increased numbers of activated synovial fibroblasts, which…Abstract Number: 1029 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Fibroblast-like Synoviocytes As Immune Effectors in the Pathogenesis of Synovial Lesion in Antibiotic-Refractory Lyme Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Antibiotic-refractory Lyme arthritis (LA) is characterized by marked proliferative synovitis that persists for months-to-years after oral and IV antibiotic therapy for Borrelia burgdorferi. Although…Abstract Number: 1051 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Hoxd Genes Regulate Arthritis-Relevant Pathways
Background/Purpose: Gene expression and functions of synovial fibroblasts (SF) differ profoundly between distinct joints. This might lead to site-specific activation of arthritis-relevant pathways with implications…Abstract Number: 1059 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Differentially-Utilized Transcription Factors and Enhancers in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Fibroblast-like Synoviocytes
Background/Purpose: RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) display a unique aggressive phenotype with a distinct epigenetic profile marked by altered chromatin accessibility. We hypothesized that differentially utilized…Abstract Number: 1063 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Role of Mitochondrial-Bound HK2 in Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblast-like Synoviocytes
Background/Purpose: Hexokinases (HKs) catalyze the first step in glucose metabolism. HK2 constitutes the principal inducible isoform with a restricted distribution in normal adult tissues. Fibroblast-like…
