Inflammatory bowel disease-specific autoantibodies in HLA-B27-associated spondyloarthropathies: Increased prevalence of ASCA and pANCA [PDF]
Aims: An association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and spondyloarthropathies (SpA) has repeatedly been reported. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether serologic markers of IBD, e. g.

Distribution of human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) in Slovak patients
HLA-B27 is a genetic marker associated with spondyloarthropathies, particularly ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis. While its prevalence varies across populations, no data exist for Slovak patients. This study aimed to determine HLA-B27 prevalence in Slovak patients with suspected spondyloarthropathies and assess differences by sex and ...

A viral CTL escape mutation leading to immunoglobulin-like transcript 4-mediated functional inhibition of myelomonocytic cells [PDF]
Viral mutational escape can reduce or abrogate recognition by the T cell receptor (TCR) of virus-specific CD8+ T cells. However, very little is known about the impact of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope mutations on interactions between peptide–major

HLA Class I or Class II and Disease Association: Catch the Difference if You Can [PDF]
The association of autoimmune diseases with HLA has been known for many decades. To date, however, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully understood. The recently introduced genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have suggested that several genes

Genetic and serological heterogeneity of the supertypic HLA-B locus specificities Bw4 and Bw6 [PDF]
Gene cloning and sequencing of the HLA-B locus split antigens B38 (B16.1) and B39 (B16.2) allowed localization of their subtypic as well as their public specificities HLA-Bw4 or -Bw6 to the c~-helical region of the c~ 1 domain flanked by the amino acid ...

Phosphorylation of STAT-1 serine 727 is prolonged in HLA-B27-expressing human monocytic cells. [PDF]
A tissue antigen, HLA-B27, is strongly associated with a group of rheumatic diseases called spondyloarthritides. Despite the intensive research, the exact role of HLA-B27 in the pathogenesis of these diseases is still unclear. Here we studied whether HLA-

Clinical Response to Adalimumab Therapy and Its Determinants in Patients With Radiographic Axial Spondyloarthritis: A Prospective Real-World Study in Taiwan. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the clinical response to adalimumab (ADA) in patients with active radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r‐axSpA) in Taiwan. Methods In this real‐world study, patients with r‐axSpA, starting ADA therapy, were enrolled and followed up every 12 weeks for 48 weeks.
