Neutrophil-Derived Lactoferrin Regulates the Activity of NFAT5 in Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fibroblasts Via Toll-like Receptor 4
Background/Purpose: Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are proposed to drive aberrant stimulation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) joints resulting in increased expression…Abstract Number: 1586 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Weight Loss in Obese Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Patients Improves Disease Activity without Modifying RA Treatment
Background/Purpose: Obesity is recognized as a systemic, low-grade inflammatory state and the adipose tissue as an endocrine organ releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines. On the other hand,…Abstract Number: 2705 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
AAA-Atpase p97-HDAC6 Controlled Poly-Ubiquitin Turnover Regulates Apoptotic and Autophagy-Associated Cell Death in Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The AAA-ATPase valosin containing protein (p97) and histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) interact with each other and are implicated in the degradation of ubiquitin-labelled proteins.…Abstract Number: 1616 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Identification of Genes Regulating TRAIL-Induced Apoptosis in Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblasts-like Synoviocytes (RA FLS)
Background/Purpose: We previously described that sensitivity to TRAIL-induced apoptosis varied in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) fibroblasts-like-synoviocytes (FLS) from one patient to another, and was inversly correlated…Abstract Number: 2710 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Necrox-7 Inhibits Cell Aggressiveness By Suppressing of NF-Kappa B Activation and Reactive Oxygen Species Generation in Human Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblast-like Synoviocytes
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by hyperplastic synovial pannus tissue, which mediates destruction of cartilage and bone. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are a key component…Abstract Number: 2355 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Apremilast, a Novel Phosphodiesterase 4 Inhibitor, and Methotrexate Independently Prevent Inflammation in Vivo and in Vitro
Background/Purpose Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitors have clear immunoregulatory effects in laboratory studies, and the clinical application of this class of drug in the field of…Abstract Number: 1031 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Induction of Pro-Apoptotic Noxa Expression By Ursolic Acid Sensitizes Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fibroblasts to Apoptosis: A Role of Mir-181a
Background/Purpose: In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the paucity of pro-apoptotic protein expression may significantly contribute to the resistance of synovial fibroblasts (FLS) to apoptosis. In the…Abstract Number: 452 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Use of Multiplex Bead Array to Follow the Effect of Rituximab on IgG and IgA Serum Autoantibody Responses to Citrullinated Epitopes in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose The majority of patients with established Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have autoantibodies against the Fc of IgG (Rheumatoid factors-RhF) and to citrullinated protein antigens (ACPAs).…Abstract Number: 2356 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Toluenesulfonylamido-Chalcone, 4-(p-toluenesulfonylamido)-4-Hydroxychalcone (TSAHC) Suppresses Inflammatory Response and Joint Destruction in an Experimental Arthritic Mice and Fibroblast-like Synoviocytes
Background/Purpose TSAHC, a toluenesulfonylamido-chalcone, 4-(p-toluenesulfonylamido)-4-hydroxychalcone is a compound to block proliferation and metastatic potential of cancer cells. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes of rheumatoid arthritis (RA-FLS) have inflammatory…Abstract Number: 940 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Reducing Therapy in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients in Ongoing Remission
Background/Purpose: Due to improved therapeutic management a steadily increasing number of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients reach stable remission of disease. Data on withdrawal of medication…Abstract Number: 347 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Salt Aggravates Arthritis By Th17 Polarization
Background/Purpose Sodium chloride (NaCl) recently has been shown to drive autoimmune diseases through the induction of pathogenic interleukin 17-producing T helper (Th17) cells. This study…Abstract Number: 2359 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
CGEN-15001, a Novel Immunomodulatory Fusion Protein of the B7 Family Induces Immune Tolerance and Shows Efficacy in Mouse Models of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Psoriasis
Background/Purpose CGEN-15001 is an Fc-fusion protein consisting of the extracellular domain of a novel B7-like protein, discovered based on shared family characteristics. CGEN-15001 inhibits T…Abstract Number: 886 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Measuring Rheumatoid Arthritis Remission: Which Index of Disease Activity Best Predicts Work Status?
Background/Purpose: Disease remission is the goal of treat-to-target initiatives in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There are multiple indices to measure disease activity and remission status including…Abstract Number: 324 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Regulation of TNF-α-Mediated Activation of Rheumatoid Synovial Fibroblasts By Transcription Factor Snail
Background/Purpose: Transcription factor Snail plays active roles in various biological functions and is involved in many disease states. We hypothesized that this molecule regulates TNF-α-mediated…
