The Association Between Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Polygenic Risk Scores with Lumbar Spine BMD Z-score: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus patients < 18 years (cSLE) are at risk for reduced bone mineral density (BMD) due to disease activity and chronic…Abstract Number: 0035 • ACR Convergence 2023
Using Genotyping and Functional Data from Monocytes to Identify Risk-Driving SNPs on JIA Risk Haplotypes
Background/Purpose: GWAS have identified multiple genetic regions that confer risk for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).However, identifying the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that drive disease risk…Abstract Number: 0738 • ACR Convergence 2023
A Genome-wide Association Study Suggests New Susceptibility Loci for Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies and the occurrence of thrombotic events and pregnancy…Abstract Number: 1671 • ACR Convergence 2023
Use of Metagenomic Microbial Plasma Cell-Free DNA Next-Generation Sequencing Assay in Outpatient Rheumatology Practice
Background/Purpose: Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) allows for non-invasive broad-range pathogen detection from plasma. The Karius test (KT) is a commercially…Abstract Number: 2368 • ACR Convergence 2023
Is Skin Disease a Local Manifestation of Systemic Tissue Turnover? Serological Collagen Biomarkers Provide Important Information on Skin Diseases Arising from Mutations in Collagen Genes
Background/Purpose: Collagens are the main constituents of the skin. Genetic mutations in type VI, VII, and XVII collagen cause skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis,…Abstract Number: 0036 • ACR Convergence 2023
Using Genotyping and Chromatin Data in CD4+ T Cells to Nominate Causal Variants on JIA Risk Haplotypes and to Identify Their Target Genes
Background/Purpose: GWAS have identified multiple genetic regions that confer risk for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).However, identifying the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that drive risk has…Abstract Number: 0757 • ACR Convergence 2023
Identification of 23 Novel COPA Rare Exonic Non-Synonymous Variants and Their Associated Autoimmune and Inflammatory Clinical Phenotypes Among 53,364 Individuals
Background/Purpose: COPA syndrome is a rare, severe monogenic autoinflammatory/autoimmune disorder with variable penetrance, most commonly affecting the lungs and joints. It is caused by dominant…Abstract Number: 1708 • ACR Convergence 2023
In Cis SOCS1 Variants Illustrate the Precise Regulation of Interferon Signaling Needed to Prevent Autoimmunity
Background/Purpose: Systemic autoimmunity can be driven by monogenic or polygenic risk variants. We aimed to characterize the genetic basis of disease in a family with…Abstract Number: 2370 • ACR Convergence 2023
C5 as a Genetic Marker for Discriminating Between IgA Vasculitis and IgA Nephropathy?
Background/Purpose: Immunoglobulin-A vasculitis (IgAV) and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) are inflammatory conditions that share pathophysiological mechanisms1,2. Similar features are also described between IgAV nephritis (IgAVN) and…Abstract Number: 0079 • ACR Convergence 2023
CD4 T Cell Repertoire Features in RA Patients with High-risk HLA-DRB1 Alleles
Background/Purpose: A role for CD4 T cells in RA pathology is supported by the effectiveness of T cell therapies, genetic studies implicating T cell gene…
