Synovial Inflammation Is Increased in Females with Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) is more common in women than men. We sought to compare clinical and histological features and synovial gene expression between…Abstract Number: 0896 • ACR Convergence 2024
Identification of Immune Pathways Regulated by a Non-Coding Variant at DNASE1L3/PXK/PDHB
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prevalent autoimmune disease in which aberrant immune attacks on joints and other tissues leads to permanent and disabling injury.…Abstract Number: 1354 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Association of Genetic Variation in PTPN22 and Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity
Background/Purpose: PTPN22 R620W is a common genetic variation that is a known risk factor for the development of autoimmune disease, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This…Abstract Number: 2145 • ACR Convergence 2024
Study of Bone Metabolism in Patients Diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
Background/Purpose: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder (90% autosomal dominant) characterized by a disruption in type 1 collagen or proteins associated with…Abstract Number: 0897 • ACR Convergence 2024
Dynamic eQTLs from Activated Human B Cells Suggest Cell-state Dependent Effects for GWAS Risk Variants in BLK
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex genetic disease in which B cells play a critical role in pathogenesis. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS)…Abstract Number: 1355 • ACR Convergence 2024
Genetically-determined Variation in C-reactive Protein Impacts Disease Activity Assessment in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: C-reactive protein (CRP) is often used as a biomarker for disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We evaluated whether rs1205, a common…Abstract Number: 2190 • ACR Convergence 2024
Uncovering Inborn Errors of Immunity in Pediatric Rheumatology
Background/Purpose: Immune dysregulation, including autoimmunity, is one of the known clinical manifestations of inborn errors of immunity (IEI). We aim to evaluate IEI discovered by…Abstract Number: 0903 • ACR Convergence 2024
Distinct Impacts of Mosaic Loss of Chromosome Y and Genetic Risk on the Age of Onset in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The age of onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is becoming older worldwide. Since patients with late-onset RA (LORA) have unique clinical characteristics, including acute…Abstract Number: 1365 • ACR Convergence 2024
Clinical Conditions Associated with Genetic Predisposition to Rheumatoid Arthritis in Real-World Settings
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a multisystem disease with a strong genetic component and multiple comorbidities. Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified single nucleotide…Abstract Number: 2201 • ACR Convergence 2024
Immunodeficiency-Related Monogenic Autoinflammatory Diseases; Expanding Spectrum of Immunodysregulation Disorders
Background/Purpose: Human inborn errors of immunity are caused by monogenic germline mutations characterized by Immunodeficiency like features with increase susceptibility to infection as well as…Abstract Number: 0904 • ACR Convergence 2024
Defining the Function of Disease Variants with CRISPR Editing and Multimodal Single Cell Sequencing
Background/Purpose: Genetic studies have identified thousands of individual disease-associated non-coding alleles, but identification of the causal alleles and their functions remain critical bottlenecks. Even though…Abstract Number: 1424 • ACR Convergence 2024
Associations of Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) Class II with Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) in Patients with Systemic Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases (SARDs). A Prospective Study in Sequential Patients with SARD-ILD
Background/Purpose: Genetic studies in various systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) support that human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II alleles are associated with specific autoimmune disorders…Abstract Number: 2202 • ACR Convergence 2024
Evolving Phenotypic and Genotypic Spectrum of Human ISG15 and USP18 Deficiencies
Background/Purpose: Loss of negative regulator in ISG15 and USP18 results in recently described immunodysregulatory disorders with diversity of clinical characteristics related to enhanced IFN-a/b immunity.…
