Role of BMP2 in Entheseal Bone Formation in Inflammatory Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is common, with a prevalence of ~1% in the United States. Patients with SpA suffer from pain and disability due to inflammation…Abstract Number: 1915 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Gut-Derived TNF As Risk Factor for the Development of Sacroiliac Inflammation
Background/Purpose: An intruiging link exists between gut and joint inflammation in spondyloarthritis (SpA). About 50% of patients has subclinical (eg. microscopic) gut inflammation, which represents…Abstract Number: 660 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Strain-Dependent IL-17A Secretion By CD4-CD8- DN αβ T Cells Correlates with Disease Susceptibility in Murine Spondyloarthritis
Background/Purpose: Hydrodynamic injection of IL-23 minicircles into adult B10.RIII mice induces an inflammatory disease with phenotypic features of human spondyloarthritis. Tissue-resident CD4-CD8- double negative (DN)…Abstract Number: 2694 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Treatment of ZAP-70 Mutant SKG Mice with Anti-IL-23 Antibody Alters Fecal Microbiota Composition and Prevents Outgrowth of Bacteria Associated with Susceptibility to Spondyloarthritis and Ileitis
Background/Purpose: Identification of disease-associated or protective bacteria may elucidate new biomarkers or probiotic supplements for people suffering from spondyloarthritis (SpA), or for people at-risk of…Abstract Number: 2711 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Tissue-Resident IL-23 Responsive Innate T Cells in Mice Comprise Tcrαβ+ and TCRγδ+ Subsets with Overlapping Function
Background/Purpose: Multiple lines of evidence suggest a critical role for the IL-23/IL-17A axis in spondyloarthritis. In susceptible inbred strains, hydrodynamic injection of IL-23 minicircles into…Abstract Number: 618 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Gender Bias in Gut Microbiota of SKG Mice Colonized with a Limited Bacterial Consortium Associated with Severity of Spondyloarthritis and Ileitis Triggered By Beta-Glucan
Background/Purpose Beta-glucan (curdlan)-treated BALB/c ZAP-70W163C(SKG) mutant mice develop IL-23-dependent spondyloarthritis, and curdlan promotes ileitis in SKG mice housed under specific pathogen-free (SPF) but not germ-free…
