Objective We aimed to characterize CD4+ T cell plasticity in human systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by leveraging T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire features as markers of prior lineage states, integrating TCR and transcriptomic profiling to delineate plasticity patterns and evaluate their association with clinical disease activity. Methods We used TCR

Objective CD4 T cells specific for citrullinated (cit) peptides are key players in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) immunopathogenesis. Characterizing these cells and identifying features of healthy and RA‐associated autoreactivity will provide valuable insight into disease mechanisms and form the basis of immune state biomarkers to facilitate the next ...

Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

Distinct Molecular Pathways Supporting Sjögren Disease Clusters and Disease Progression
Objective Sjögren disease (SjD) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease. We aimed to investigate blood transcriptomic signatures and disease progression among three recently defined clusters of patients with SjD: (1) B cell active disease with low symptom burden (BALS), (2) high systemic activity (HSA), and (3) low systemic activity with high symptom ...
