Immune Complexes Shape the Pathogenicity of Autoantibodies in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: Insights From an FcγRIIIA‐Reporter Assay

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Immune complexes (ICs), formed by autoantigen and autoantibody, play a pathogenic role in systemic autoimmune diseases through stimulation of Fcγ receptors (FcγR). However, studies investigating bioactivity of circulating ICs across various diseases remain limited.

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Complement Activation Linked to Type II Interferon Signaling in Still Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by innate immune dysregulation. Although complement can drive inflammation, its involvement in SD remains to be defined. Thus, we aimed to assess complement activation in SD. Methods Complement was assessed using transcriptomic, proteomic, and in vitro approaches. RNA sequencing

Treatment‐driven peripheral blood transcriptomic remodelling and baseline predictors of ESSDAI and STAR response to B‐cell therapy in Sjögren's disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To characterise whole‐blood transcriptomic profiles in adults with active Sjögren's disease (SjD) treated with anti‐CD20 or BlyS/BAFF inhibition, identify markers of clinical response, and define inflammatory pathways linked to non‐response. Methods Whole‐blood RNA sequencing was performed at baseline and week‐24 in participants (n=43) from a

Development of interactive MRI‐based 3D visualization tools for neuroanatomy education in Latin America

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of neuroanatomy is fundamental in many scientific fields. Despite this, it is a challenging subject for students. As technology evolves, it is being increasingly incorporated into educational methods, including the teaching of neuroanatomy. Three‐dimensional (3D) visualizations are well suited for displaying neuroanatomy.

Targeting Amastigote and Trypomastigote Phases: Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Strategy Against Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (
