Comprehensive Single-cell Analysis Reveals Interferon Pathway Activation and Aberrant B Cell Dynamics in APS Autoimmunity
Background/Purpose: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized with the presence of pathogenic antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) by autoreactive B cells. However, it remains…Abstract Number: 1646 • ACR Convergence 2024
A Novel E3 Ligase of GILZ: Validation of a Steroid-sparing Therapeutic Target in SLE
Background/Purpose: SLE is primarily mediated by B cell dysregulation on a background of type I interferon (IFN) activation. This multi-faceted nature of immune defects in…Abstract Number: 2077 • ACR Convergence 2024
Comparison of Janus Kinase Inhibitors to Block the Type I and II Interferon Pathways in Human Myoblasts
Background/Purpose: The family of Janus kinases (JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, TYK2) mediate signal transduction from cytokine receptors through phosphorylation and activation of intracellular signaling pathways and…Abstract Number: 0887 • ACR Convergence 2024
Identification of Rare Variants in Lupus-causing Genes in a Mixed Paediatric and Adult Connective Tissue Disease Cohort
Background/Purpose: Connective tissue diseases (CTDs) are a family of heterogeneous autoimmune diseases with overlapping clinical features. Not all patients with features suggestive of a mendelian…Abstract Number: 1706 • ACR Convergence 2024
Multi-omic Study in Patients with SITRAME Syndrome
Background/Purpose: The SITRAME syndrome (Systemic Inflammatory Trunk Recurrent Acute Macular Eruption) is a newly described inflammatory entity affecting adult patients with no family history (Soria…Abstract Number: 2199 • ACR Convergence 2024
Mycobacterial Infection and Renal and Bladder Malignancy in 2 IFNopathy Patients on High Doses of JAK Inhibitors
Background/Purpose: Autoinflammatory Type I Interferonopathies (IFNopathies) include STINGopathies (e.g., SAVI and COPA syndrome), proteasomopathies (e.g., CANDLE/Proteasome associated autoinflammatory syndrome (PRAAS), and oligonucleotidopathies (e.g., AGS: Aicardi-Goutières…Abstract Number: 0901 • ACR Convergence 2024
Intergenic Alu Elements Are Uniquely Expressed in Dermatomyositis and Correlate with Interferon Stimulated Genes
Background/Purpose: As genes constitute < 2% of our genomes, there is a need to explore potential roles of other genomic elements in autoimmune disease. We…Abstract Number: 1732 • ACR Convergence 2024
In Vitro Screening of siRNAs Designed to Knockdown Interferon Beta as a Novel Therapeutic Approach for Treatment of Adult and Juvenile Dermatomyositis
Background/Purpose: The main treatments for adult and juvenile dermatomyositis (DM/JDM) are immunosuppressant drugs and corticosteroids, which have significant side effects and are not effective in…Abstract Number: 2288 • ACR Convergence 2024
Interferon Gamma Signaling Is Associated with Development of Extraglandular Manifestations in Sjögren’s Disease
Background/Purpose: Sjögren’s disease (SjD) is an autoimmune disease that primarily affects salivary and lacrimal glands. Some patients with SjD develop various extraglandular manifestations (EGM), such…Abstract Number: 0919 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Effects of CB2R Activation on Inflammatory Pathways in Dermatomyositis
Background/Purpose: Previous in vitro investigations done by our group into the utility of CB2R activation to treat dermatomyositis (DM) used stimulants that activated pathways not…Abstract Number: 1762 • ACR Convergence 2024
Multi-omic Analysis Defines Heterogeneous and Cell Specific Type I Interferon Signalling in Juvenile-onset SLE Patients Associated with Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Risk
Background/Purpose: Juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (jSLE) is an autoimmune disease characterised by chronic inflammation, multi-organ damage, and/or death. Despite their young age, jSLE patients have…
