Modulating Pentose Phosphate Pathway Metabolism to Temper Neutrophil Hyperactivity in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil hyperactivity and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release (NETosis) appear to play important roles in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) pathogenesis. To kill microbes and propel…Abstract Number: 1638 • ACR Convergence 2024
Calprotectin, a Mechanistically Informed Biomarker for Clinically Isolated Aortitis
Background/Purpose: Clinically isolated aortitis (CIA) is aortitis in patients without evidence of systemic disease, infection, or involvement of other vascular territories. CIA is discovered incidentally…Abstract Number: 0101 • ACR Convergence 2024
Metabolomic Profiling Reveals a Role for Citric Acid Cycle Dysfunction in Antiphospholipid Syndrome Neutrophils
Background/Purpose: As early effectors of the immune response, neutrophils must access energy rapidly. Neutrophils rely on glycolysis for antimicrobial functions such as phagocytosis and reactive…Abstract Number: 1795 • ACR Convergence 2024
Immune Complexes-Mediated Activation of Neutrophils in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Is Dependent on RNA Recognition by TLR8
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil activation has been implicated to contribute to the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis. However, factors and mechanisms promoting neutrophil activation in SLE have…Abstract Number: 0103 • ACR Convergence 2024
CD10highLow-Density Granulocytes Is a Potential Marker of Disease Activity in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background/Purpose: To investigate the relationship between CD10highLow-Density Granulocytes (LDG) and disease activity in antiphospholipid syndrome(APS).Methods: This study included 99 patients with APS who were treated…Abstract Number: 1802 • ACR Convergence 2024
Heterogeneous Neutrophil Subsets Infiltrate Glomeruli of Lupus Nephritis Patients and Are Elevated in the Kidneys and Urine of Sunlight-induced Nephritis Flares
Background/Purpose: Up to ~60% of SLE patients in North America will develop kidney disease, lupus nephritis (LN), one of the main contributors to disease morbidity…Abstract Number: 0507 • ACR Convergence 2024
Neutrophil Activation Markers Can Predict Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment Response to the Janus Kinase 1/2 Inhibitor Baricitinib
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils play an important role in regulating immune and inflammatory responses in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We assessed whether baricitinib, a JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor, could reduce…Abstract Number: 2601 • ACR Convergence 2024
Platelets Specifically Interact with Remigrating Neutrophils and Promote Immunogenic Cellular Death in Systemic Lupus
Background/Purpose: In SLE, platelet activation (express P-selectin+) follows the disease activity, which plays a role in thrombosis as well as in inflammation (1). Neutrophils express high levels of PSGL-1,…Abstract Number: 0515 • ACR Convergence 2024
Scavenging Isolevuglandins with 2-HOBA Decreases In Vitro Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Cells from Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils contribute to the innate immune response of killing pathogens through the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which is also called NETosis. NETosis…Abstract Number: 2690 • ACR Convergence 2024
ANCA IgG Promotion of Neutrophil Recruitment, Migration and Vascular Damage in ANCA Associated Vasculitis May Be Enhanced by Hypoxia
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils are main mediators of disease in ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV). Pathogenic ANCA IgG on neutrophils promotes neutrophil adhesion and migration at the endothelium.…Abstract Number: 0766 • ACR Convergence 2024
Neutrophil Transcriptomics in VEXAS Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Vacuoles, E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome is caused by somatic mutations of the ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 1 (UBA1) gene and…Abstract Number: 0773 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-Citrullinated Histone Antibody CIT-013 Targets NETs in Inflamed Joints and Halts NET-mediated Joint Deterioration
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contribute to the pathophysiology of many immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). Though NETosis-targeting therapeutics have shown potential as effective treatments, currently…Abstract Number: 0801 • ACR Convergence 2024
Neutrophil Activation as a Novel Marker of Lung Disease in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil activation is seen in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but its involvement in RA interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) is not clear. Levels of N-formyl methionine…Abstract Number: 0918 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-VISTA Antibody Suppresses Neutrophil-mediated Inflammation
Background/Purpose: A growing body of evidence suggests that VISTA, an immune checkpoint inhibitory receptor, plays a central role in the regulation of innate immunity in…Abstract Number: 0931 • ACR Convergence 2024
Salivary Granular Convoluted Tubules Contribute to Maintain Tissue-specific Tolerance – Implications for the Development of Murine Sjögren´s Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (PSS) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting exocrine glands with an important systemic autoimmune reaction against some nuclear and membrane bound…
