Nasal administration of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) peptides induces Th2 responses and prevents murine insulin-dependent diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We previously demonstrated that a spontaneous Th1 response against glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) arises in NOD mice at four weeks in age and subsequently T cell autoimmunity spreads both intramolecularly and intermolecularly.

Differences in IgG Sialylation Distinguish Asymptomatic From Symptomatic Antinuclear Antibody–Positive Individuals

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The transition from asymptomatic antinuclear antibody (ANA) positivity to systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease (SARD) is associated with increased production of proinflammatory factors such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα). Here we investigate whether the relative absence of inflammation in asymptomatic ANA+ individuals (ANA+NS) results ...

What Immunological Defects Predispose to Non-tuberculosis Mycobacterial Infections? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are categorized as one of the large and diverse groups of environmental organisms which are abundant in water and soil.  NTM cause a variety of diseases in humans that mainly affect the lung.

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune

Alu Overexpression Leads to an Increased Double‐Stranded RNA Signature in Dermatomyositis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Dermatomyositis is an autoimmune condition characterized by a high interferon signature of unknown etiology. Because coding sequences constitute <1.2% of our genomes, there is a need to explore the role of the noncoding genome in disease pathogenesis.

Prognostic value of lupus anticoagulant and anti‐β2 glycoprotein I antibody in adverse pregnancy outcomes.

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective International criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) include lupus anticoagulant (LA), anticardiolipin (aCL) immunoglobulin (Ig) G and IgM, and anti‐β2‐glycoprotein I (β2GPI) IgG and IgM. However, evidence supporting their prognostic value or treatment efficacy in improving live birth rates is limited.

Epidermal Interferon‐κ Drives Cutaneous Lupus‐Like Lesions, Photosensitivity, and Systemic Autoimmunity In Vivo

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Keratinocyte‐derived interferon (IFN) κ is chronically overexpressed in human nonlesional systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) skin. Recent evidence suggests that epidermal signals instruct the immune system in SLE, but whether epidermal IFNκ alone is sufficient to drive lupus phenotypes has not been investigated.
