Activin A–Activated ALK4 Induces Pathogenic Th17‐Involved Endothelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus–Associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), are associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a condition that can lead to heart failure. However, whether T cells also contribute to the occurrence of PAH in SLE has not been clarified.

Regulatory Role of FGL‐1 in Interorgan Communication by Controlling T Cell Homeostasis During the Onset of Sjögren Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Autoimmunity occurs due to the tactics between pathogenic and regulatory factors in systemic organs. Although interorgan communication has been demonstrated in various diseases, the effects of the crosstalk between the immune system and other organs on autoimmune disease is unknown.

Hand Swelling and Other Non–Raynaud Phenomenon Symptoms as the Initial Presentation of Systemic Sclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Associations in Two US Cohorts

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Raynaud phenomenon (RP) is often the initial clinical manifestation of systemic sclerosis (SSc), but some patients develop other manifestations first. To help elucidate the diversity of SSc presentation in its early stages, we describe the initial clinical manifestations and antinuclear antibody (ANA) profiles of patients in two early SSc ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.
