Formyl Peptide Receptor 2 Activation Ameliorates Dermal Fibrosis and Inflammation in Bleomycin-Induced Scleroderma

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Systemic sclerosis is a profibrotic autoimmune disease mediated by the dysregulation of extracellular matrix synthesis. Formyl peptide receptor 2 (Fpr2) is a G protein-coupled receptor that modulates inflammation and host defense by regulating the ...

Peripheral blood gene expression profiling shows prognostic significance for the course of interstitial lung disease in systemic sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective We used data from the placebo arm of the SENSCIS trial to determine the prognostic/predictive significance of peripheral blood cell (PBC) transcript modules for the course of forced vital capacity (FVC) in patients with systemic sclerosis‐associated interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) with and without mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) treatment ...

Pathogenesis of Scleroderma (Systemic Sclerosis)

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
Increasing interest in the vascular features of scleroderma has led to the hypothesis that the blood vessel is the major target tissue and that the endothelial cell is the principal cell target. Useful observations stemming from the vascular hypothesis include the use of microvascular abnormalities in the early detection of the patient destined to ...
