A Potent Inhibitor of PAD4 Suppresses Histone Citrullination in Vitro and in Vivo
Background/Purpose: Peptidyl arginine deaminase 4 (PAD4) catalyzes the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline, a post-translational modification that has been implicated in the auto-immune response…Abstract Number: 0567 • ACR Convergence 2022
Gain-of-Function Mutations in Lyn Kinase Cause a Novel Autoinflammatory Disease with Small Vessel Vasculitis and Liver Fibrosis
Background/Purpose: Lyn kinase is a member of the Src family of tyrosine kinases that regulates innate and adaptive immune responses. Lyn C-terminal tail tyrosine residue,…Abstract Number: 1687 • ACR Convergence 2022
A Core Inflammation Program Conserved Across Human and Murine Neutrophils
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils mediate a range of homeostatic and inflammatory processes and display substantial phenotypic and functional heterogeneity. While animal models enable important mechanistic discoveries, differences…Abstract Number: 0593 • ACR Convergence 2022
A New Cytokine Interleukin 40 Is Elevated in the Serum of Patients with Early Rheumatoid Arthritis and Associates with Autoantibodies and Neutrophil Activation
Background/Purpose: IL-40 is a newly described cytokine related to malignant transformation and immune system function. In our previous study, we showed that IL-40 is elevated…Abstract Number: 1688 • ACR Convergence 2022
Biomechanical Phenotype of Circulating Neutrophils Is Altered in ANCA Associated Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: Real Time-Deformability Cytometry (RT-DC) is a novel technique able to identify morpho-rheological characteristics of individual cells such as size, deformability, and elasticity using only…Abstract Number: 0541 • ACR Convergence 2021
N-formyl Methionine Peptide-mediated Neutrophil Activation in Systemic Sclerosis
Background/Purpose: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex systemic autoimmune disease, and its etiology is unknown. Exaggerated neutrophil activation and formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)…Abstract Number: 0948 • ACR Convergence 2021
Immunometabolism of Neutrophils in Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil hyperactivity and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release (NETosis) appear to play roles in APS pathophysiology. Until recently, it was thought that neutrophils relied…Abstract Number: 0994 • ACR Convergence 2021
Role of SLE Associated Cytokines in Generation of Mature Neutrophils
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by autoantibody production and periods of elevated disease activity. Recent studies indicate that along…Abstract Number: 0998 • ACR Convergence 2021
Increasing Age Impairs the Metabolic Adaptation of Human Neutrophils to Glucose Deprivation
Background/Purpose: Age-related impairment of characteristic neutrophil functions is well described (Fortin, McDonald et al. 2008). However, experimental evidence for age-related alterations of neutrophil metabolic adaptation…Abstract Number: 1430 • ACR Convergence 2021
Autoantibodies Stabilize Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in COVID-19
Background/Purpose: The release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) by hyperactive neutrophils is recognized to play an important role in the thromboinflammatory milieu inherent to severe…Abstract Number: 1868 • ACR Convergence 2021
Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation in Patients with Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, the extrusion of chromatin and granular components from activated neutrophils, is essential in host defense. However, NET formation has…Abstract Number: 1875 • ACR Convergence 2021
Hyoscine Butylbromide Inhibits Neutrophil Cell Death Induction by Cocaine-levamisole. a Proof of Concept for the Management of Vasculopathy Induced by Cocaine-Levamisole
Background/Purpose: The Vasculopathy induced by Cocaine-Levamisole (VICOL) is a recently described vasculopathy characterized by the presence of tissue necrosis. One of the possible mechanisms associated…Abstract Number: 1936 • ACR Convergence 2021
A Neutrophil Degranulation Signature Identifies Proliferative Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: The identification of intrarenal pathological processes is key to develop better diagnostic and treatment strategies in lupus nephritis (LN). But the direct comprehensive study…Abstract Number: 0047 • ACR Convergence 2021
A Role for Neutrophils in Disease Onset and Severity of Spondyloarthritis
Background/Purpose: Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of inflammatory diseases that includes axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). AxSpA patients have irregular neutrophil responses, as…Abstract Number: 0356 • ACR Convergence 2021
The Role of Neutrophils in the Clinical Severity of Lupus Nephritis Patients with Concurrent Skin Disease
Background/Purpose: Skin disease affects >80% of lupus patients and has been linked to lupus nephritis (LN) flares. We recently found that skin inflammation caused by…
