Linking Skin and Joint Inflammation in Psoriatic Arthritis through Shared CD8+ T Cell Clones

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an HLA class I–associated inflammatory arthritis that develops in up to 30% of people with psoriasis. We tested the hypothesis that skin and joint inflammation in PsA is linked in terms of CD8+ T cell phenotype and clonality.

Modulation of class II histocompatibility antigen expression by maternal serum.

open access: yesDisease markers, 1991
Human maternal serum has been shown to down-regulate the expression of MHC class II antigen in three distinct circumstances. Cord blood mononuclear cells, incubated in the mother's own serum, showed significant modulation of class II antigen expression. This was also the case for unrelated donor lymphocytes, incubated in pooled maternal serum.

Comparative Effectiveness of Abatacept Versus Adalimumab in Shared Epitope Positive and Negative Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The effect of the shared epitope (SE) and valine at position 11 (Val11) of HLA–DRB1 on the activation of CD4+ T cells is expected to be diminished by abatacept, a costimulation blocker. However, published evidence on the value of genetic stratification for abatacept treatment is conflicting. We aimed to compare the difference in effectiveness

Monocyte‐Derived Macrophages‐Synovial Fibroblasts Crosstalk Unravels Oncostatin Signaling Network as a Driver of Synovitis in Osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating joint disease that is characterized by cartilage degradation, synovial inflammation, and pain. Macrophages have been implicated in OA pathology, but the origins and functions of diverse macrophage subsets seeding the synovial joint tissue remain incompletely understood.

Seronegative spondyloarthropathies : a review : part II: genetics and pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
In none of the spondyloarthropathies is the pathogenesis well understood. Much of the investigation into the aetio-pathogenesis of these diseases has focused on the association with HLA-B27 and the known triggering potential of certain infectious agents.

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

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.
