Epidemiology and Genetics of Rheumatic Diseases Suggest a Constant Rate of DNA Damage as Underlying Cause

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 177, Issue 4, Page 736-748, April 2026.
A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should

Anti‐CD146 Autoantibodies: The First Biologic Markers Associated With Occupational Exposure in Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a severe autoimmune disease, with occupational exposure being a significant risk factor. Because CD146 was recently identified as a driver of fibrosis in SSc through regulation of the Wnt/reactive oxygen species interplay, we hypothesized that it is a major autoimmune target in this disease. Methods We developed an

Distinct by Design: Unraveling the Unique Clinical and Transcriptomic Identity of Juvenile Scleromyositis Overlap Compared to Juvenile Systemic Sclerosis and Juvenile Dermatomyositis: Implications for Care and Pathogenesis

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Objective To characterize clinical and transcriptomic differences in juvenile scleromyositis overlap (jOverlap) compared to juvenile systemic sclerosis (jSSc) and juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), focusing on autoantibody profiles, organ involvement, treatment, and peripheral blood gene expression.

Performance of Circulating Inflammatory Biomarkers and Krebs von den Lungen 6 for Predicting Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Objective To assess the predictive performance of inflammatory biomarkers, including C‐reactive protein (CRP) and Krebs von den Lungen 6 (KL‐6), for the development of progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc)–associated interstitial lung disease (ILD).

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 566-581, March 2026.
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

Association of Abatacept With Lower Mortality Risk Compared to Rituximab in Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease: An Emulated Target Trial

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 592-602, March 2026.
Objective The optimal treatment strategy for rheumatoid arthritis–associated interstitial lung disease (RA‐ILD) remains uncertain, and direct comparative data between biologics are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of abatacept compared with rituximab in patients with RA‐ILD.
