Antisynthetase syndrome

Joint Bone Spine, 2003
Seven autoantibodies directed against synthetases have been identified to date, the best known being anti-Jo1. Synthetases play a vital role in protein synthesis by catalyzing the acetylation of transfer RNAs (tRNAs). The most common form of antisynthetase syndrome is characterized by anti-Jo1 production, interstitial lung disease (ILD), inflammatory ...

Clinical manifestations and treatment of antisynthetase syndrome

Best Practice and Research in Clinical Rheumatology, 2020
Antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS) is an autoimmune disease clinically manifested most often by interstitial lung disease, myositis, and arthritis. Raynaud's syndrome, fever, and rashes are also commonly seen. This syndrome is characterized by the highly specific presence of antibodies against various aminoacyl transfer RNA synthetases, including Jo-1 and ...

Anti-Ro52 antibodies, antisynthetase antibodies, and antisynthetase syndrome

open access: yesClinical Rheumatology, 2007
We present a case of antisynthetase syndrome manifesting with interstitial lung disease, mechanic's hands, nailfold abnormalities, and subclinical myositis, in the presence of antibodies to the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase PL-12 and also to Ro52. Antibodies to Ro52 have been recently associated with idiopathic inflammatory myositis, but there have only ...

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD) is a rare clinical condition that is characterized by the occurrence of a classic clinical triad, encompassing myositis, arthritis, and interstitial lung disease (ILD), along with specific autoantibodies that are addressed ...

Antisynthetase Syndrome

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2011
Autoantibodies to eight of the aminoacyl-transfer RNA synthetases-the most well-recognized of which is anti-histidyl (Jo-1)-have all been implicated in the pathogenesis of antisynthetase syndrome (AS). AS is characterized by varying degrees of interstitial lung disease, myositis, arthropathy, fever, Raynaud's phenomenon, and mechanic's hands, and the ...
