Interferon-Alpha Protects Against Pain and Joint Damages in Experimental Arthritis and Is Associated with Expansion of Highly Suppressive Regulatory T Lymphocytes in Protected Mice and in Tocilizumab-Treated Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Type I interferons (IFN-I) can be both anti- and pro-inflammatory. Among them, IFN-α inhibits normal Th17 differentiation, whereas it is pathogenic in lupus. The…Abstract Number: 105 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Immunologic Properties of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE) Patients Refractory to Antimalarials Compared to Patients That Respond to Antimalarials
Background/Purpose: Two major therapies for cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) are the antimalarials, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and quinacrine (QC). HCQ is often the first-line therapy for CLE,…Abstract Number: 125 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Monocyte Transcriptome Delineates SSc Patients with Functionally Distinct Patterns of Gene Dysregulation That Persist through Differentiation
Background/Purpose: The etiology and pathogenesis of SSc are poorly understood; however, an increasing body of evidence supports an early inflammatory phase that precedes, and may…Abstract Number: 878 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
IFN Level Assessed By Ultrasensitive Detection Technology in Myositis Patient: A Promising Biomarker of Disease Activity in Dermatomyositis and Anti-Synthetase Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Inflammatory idiopathic myopathies (IIM) is a heterogeneous group of disorders ranging from muscle specific auto-immune diseases to systemic ones (dermatomyositis (DM), anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS),…Abstract Number: 866 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Interferon-Alpha Overexpression Triggers an Expansion of Highly Suppressive Regulatory T Lymphocytes Protecting Against Experimental Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Type I interferons (IFN-I) can be both anti- and pro-inflammatory. Among them, IFN-α inhibits normal Th17 differentiation, whereas it is pathogenic in lupus. The…Abstract Number: 1656 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Type I Interferon Drives the Dysregulation of Plasmacytoid and Myeloid Dendritic Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Dendritic cells (DC) are the sentinel cells of the immune system that potently activate T-cells, making them important players in the pathophysiology of systemic…Abstract Number: 1663 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
De Novo Mutation in ΑCΑCΒ in Childhood Onset SLE Highlights a Novel Role As Modulator of Nucleic Acid Sensor-Driven Type I Interferon Responses
Background/Purpose: Rare variants provide important opportunity for mechanistic insight as they carry substantial effect sizes and provide deep insight into disease etiopathogenesis. To date, several…Abstract Number: 1719 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Accelerated Wound Healing in Megakaryocyte/Platelet-Specific Fli1 Knockout Mice Due to the up-Regulated Expression of Interferon-γ
Background/Purpose: Fli1 deficiency, a potential predisposing factor of systemic sclerosis (SSc), induces SSc-like phenotypes in dermal fibroblasts, endothelial cells, keratinocytes, and macrophages. However, it is…
