A Single-cell Atlas of Human Synovial Endothelial Cells in Inflammatory Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Dysregulated endothelial cell (EC) function and altered (lympho)angiogenesis crucially contribute to synovial pathology in inflammatory arthritis. Additionally, endothelium plays a key role in the…Abstract Number: 0973 • ACR Convergence 2021
Modeling of Clinical Phenotypes in SLE Based on Platelet Transcriptomic Analysis and FCGR2a Biallelic Variants
Background/Purpose: The clinical heterogeneity of SLE with its complex pathogenesis remains challenging as we strive to provide optimal management. The contribution of platelets to endovascular…Abstract Number: 0936 • ACR Convergence 2020
Urine Proteomics and Single Cell Transcriptomics Identify IL-16 as a Biomarker for Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Treatment of lupus nephritis relies on renal histopathological features. However, renal biopsies do not capture patient-specific active biological pathways. Urine proteomic biomarkers could revolutionize…Abstract Number: 0979 • ACR Convergence 2020
The Identification of Shared and Unique Myeloid Cell States in Pre- and Post-nephritic Lupus Mouse Models, Sle.Yaa1 and NZBW
Background/Purpose:Poor renal prognosis in lupus nephritis (LN) is associated with an abundance of renal macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) but the role of these cells…Abstract Number: 1443 • ACR Convergence 2020
High-dimensional Analyses of Checkpoint-inhibitor Related Arthritis Synovial Fluid Cells Reveal a Unique, Proliferating CD38hi Cytotoxic CD8 T Cell Population Induced by Type I IFN
Background/Purpose: Checkpoint inhibitors (CI) used to treat cancer frequently trigger immune-related adverse events, including inflammatory arthritis. CI-related arthritis (CIrA) occurs in ~5% of treated patients,…Abstract Number: 1452 • ACR Convergence 2020
Transcriptomic Meta-analysis Reveals a Core Transcriptional Program in Murine B Cell Anergy and Implicates Immunometabolic Regulation as a Central Pathway in Maintaining Non-responsiveness of Autoreactive B-cells in Both Mouse and Man
Background/Purpose: The mechanisms self-tolerance loss that lead to autoantibody-mediated autoimmune disease remain underdefined. The rapid reversibility of peripheral B-cell tolerance in murine models suggests that…Abstract Number: 1787 • ACR Convergence 2020
Differences in Chromatin Architecture Between Treatment Naïve Pediatric and Adult Lupus Patients
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is possibly triggered by gene-environment interactions. We showed most of the SLE haplotypes encompass genomic regions enriched for epigenetic marks…Abstract Number: 0027 • ACR Convergence 2020
CYP2D6 Genotype and Reduced Codeine Analgesic Effect in Real-World Clinical Practice
Background/Purpose: Codeine, a widely prescribed analgesic, is an inactive pro-drug that is metabolized to morphine, the active drug, by cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6), a highly…Abstract Number: 1815 • ACR Convergence 2020
Dynamic Changes in Microbiota Representation of a Gut Pathobiont and Clinical Disease Activity in Patients with Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: From a cross-sectional cohort, we have recently identified a candidate human gut pathobiont, Ruminococcus gnavus (RG) of the Lachnospiraceae family and Blautia genus that…Abstract Number: 0036 • ACR Convergence 2020
Molecular Phenotyping of Late-Stage Knee Osteoarthritis Synovium Through Total RNA-Sequencing
Background/Purpose: Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful, disabling condition and molecular mechanisms underlying this disease are poorly understood. In recent years, OA is increasingly viewed…Abstract Number: 1860 • ACR Convergence 2020
An Integrative Approach to Identify Heritable and De Novo Genomic Variations in Psoriatic Arthritis Mutilans and Understand Its Systems Biology
Background/Purpose: Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disease that burdens ~3% of North Americans. ~24% of psoriatic patients develop psoriasis arthritis (PsA), an inflammatory disease…Abstract Number: 0072 • ACR Convergence 2020
Characterizing Heterogeneity of Synovial Macrophages in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Macrophages in the synovial lining of the joint are critical players in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). While they are potent producers of…Abstract Number: 1933 • ACR Convergence 2020
Small Vessel Vasculitis Surrounding a Preserved Temporal Artery: Search for Tissue Biomarkers with Potential Diagnostic Value
Background/Purpose: Systemic vasculitides are complex and heterogeneous diseases with overlapping features that frequently pose a diagnostic challenge to clinicians. The temporal artery biopsy (TAB) is…Abstract Number: 0174 • ACR Convergence 2020
Dense Genotyping of Immunologic Loci Identifies CXCR4 as a Novel Susceptibility Locus for Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) is a severe, potentially lethal inflammatory condition. It accounts for a disproportionate share of morbidity and mortality among childhood…Abstract Number: 1957 • ACR Convergence 2020
A Single Cell Stromal Atlas Identifies Conserved Fibroblast Phenotypes Expanded in the Inflamed Synovium, Lung, Intestine, and Salivary Gland
Background/Purpose: Pro-inflammatory fibroblasts have been independently implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), interstitial lung disease (ILD), and Sjogren’s syndrome…
