Distinct Effects of Complement C4A and C4B Copy Numbers in Systemic Sclerosis Serological and Clinical Subtypes

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.

Improved Detection of Myositis‐Specific Autoantibodies Using Luciferase Immunoprecipitation Systems Assay: Comparison with Line Blot and Conventional Immunoprecipitation

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Myositis‐specific autoantibodies guide the diagnosis and classification of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, but current immunoassays vary in accuracy, particularly for autoantibodies associated with interstitial lung disease. Objective To compare the performance of the luciferase immunoprecipitation systems (LIPS) assay with line blot and

Single‐cell level characterization of B cell depletion and repopulation following rituximab in systemic lupus erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Rituximab, a CD20+ B cell depletion therapy, is frequently used to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, variability in patient response highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the underlying immune cell dynamics of B cell depletion and repopulation.

Association of Clonal Hematopoiesis with Incident, Late‐Onset, Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), defined by acquired driver mutations in hematopoietic stem cells, is associated with many inflammatory diseases of aging. We investigated whether CH and its subtypes, clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) and mosaic chromosomal alteration (mCA), are associated with incident rheumatoid arthritis (RA)

Identifying systemic lupus erythematosus from serum proteomic profiles using machine learning and genetic risk stratification

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives Proteome‐wide risk models for lupus remain underexplored. We developed classification models to identify lupus from serum proteomic profiles. Methods Lupus patients and individuals with other autoimmune diseases in the UK Biobank were included.
