The Pro-Fibrotic Cytokines IL-33 and IL-13 Modulates Dermal Fibrosis Via the A2A Adenosine Receptor
Background/Purpose: We have previously demonstrated that the nucleoside adenosine mediates collagen production and induce dermal fibrosis in in vitro and in vivo models. IL–13 expression…Abstract Number: 877 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Aberrant Expression of BAFF Receptor (BR3) in Peripheral Monocytes of Patients with Primary Sjögren’s Syndrome Impacts Abnormal Activation of BAFF Signaling Through IKK-Alphaand IKK-Beta
Background/Purpose: B cell activating factor belonging to the TNF superfamily (BAFF) regulates proliferation, differentiation and survival of B cells and plays a pivotal role in…Abstract Number: 2031 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Safety and Efficacy of Anakinra in Patients with Deficiency of Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist
Background/Purpose: Deficiency of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA) is a neonatal-onset autoinflammatory syndrome caused by mutations in IL1RN gene and clinically characterized by a perinatal onset…Abstract Number: 901 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Colony-Stimulating Factor (CSF) Receptor 1 Blockade Overcomes Overlapping Effects of M-CSF and Interleukin-34 On Myeloid Differentiation and Gene Expression to Reduce Inflammation in Human and Murine Models of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Disease activity and response to therapy in RA correlates with changes in synovial macrophage numbers and their products. M-CSF or IL-34 stimulation of their…Abstract Number: 2021 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Schedule of Administration of Canakinumab in Cryopyrin Associated Periodic Syndrome Is Driven by the Phenotype Severity Rather Than the Age
Background/Purpose: to identify the optimal regimen for the treatment with Canakinumab in CAPS patients and, in patients receiving both Anakinra and Canakinumab during their disease…Abstract Number: 899 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Role for Soluble Interleukin-6 Receptor As an Antagonist of Interleukin-27 Signaling
Background/Purpose: Recently, it has been reported that interleukin (IL)-27 treatment reduces inflammation and ameliorates arthritis in collagen-induced arthritis mice. IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine composed…Abstract Number: 2079 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-Interleukin-6 Receptor Antibody Improves Systemic Osteoporosis in a Mice Model of Glucose-6-Phosphate Isomerase-Induced Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a high risk of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture. In addition to the primary risk factors for osteoporosis, osteoporosis…Abstract Number: 894 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Genetic Variants in the IL-4 and IL-4 Receptor Genes in Association with the Severity of Joint Damage in Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Study in Seven Cohorts
Background/Purpose: The severity of RA is reflected by the severity of radiological joint destruction. It is highly variable between patients and up to 58% of…Abstract Number: 2077 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
IL-6 Blockade Augments the Anti-Inflammatory Effect without Increasing the Side Effects of Steroids in Collagen-Induced Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Steroids are the main therapy for chronic inflammatory diseases. They are very effective, but induce many side effects, such as osteoporosis, making it important…Abstract Number: 1062 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Identification of Highly Potent and Selective Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase 4 Inhibitors for the Treatment of Rheumatic Diseases
Background/Purpose: Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is a key mediator of the innate immune response orchestrated by interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R), interleukin-18 receptor (IL-18R), IL-33…Abstract Number: 2084 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
ASP015K: A Novel JAK Inhibitor Demonstrated Potent Efficacy in Adjuvant-Induced Arthritis Model in Rats
Background/Purpose: The Janus kinase (JAK) family of enzymes plays a key role in cytokine signaling, which is involved in the pathogenic events of immune-mediated disorders…
