Single cell RNAseq on rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease

ABSTRACT: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis and/or joint deterioration. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of extra-articular manifestations of RA characterized by inflammation and/or fibrosis. Clinically relevant rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) occurs in 10% of RA patients and is associated with poor prognosis. Although a poor prognosis has been reported, little is known about RA-ILD. Here, we report the first detailed transcriptomic analysis of the epithelial and immune cell populations in RA-ILD lungs at the single-cell level.
