Project description:Object: to understand Infliximab treatment effect on the molecular expression of tissue at disease site 4mm punch biopsies were performed on involved and uninvolved skin at baseline in 5 Ps patients. A repeat biopsy was performed at week 2 after IFX therapy at a site adjacent to the baseline biopsy of involved skin. Synovial biopsies were performed on the knee of 3 RA and 3 PsA paired-subjects with a Parker Pearson biopsy needle (Dyna Medical, London, Canada) under ultrasound guidance at baseline and repeated on the same knee at week 10

Project description:objection: The immune inflammatory disorders rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and psoriasis (Ps) share common pathologic features and show responsiveness to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents yet they are phenotypically distinct. The aim of this study was to examine if anti-TNF therapy is associated with divergent gene expression profiles in circulating cells and target tissues of patients with these diseases Method: Peripheral blood CD14+ and CD14- cells were isolated from 9 RA, 12 PsA and 10 Ps patients before and after infliximab (IFX) treatment.

Between April 2007 and June 2009, 31 patients with active RA, PsA and Ps who were naïve to anti-TNF agents, were recruited from the Faculty Rheumatology Clinics at the University of Rochester Medical Center after informed, written consent was obtained in a protocol approved by the Research Subjects Review Board at the University of Rochester Medical Center. Of the 31 subjects, 9 had active RA and 12 had PsA despite treatment with Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs). Also, 10 patients with extensive Ps (>5% BSA) documented by a dermatologist, were enrolled and they were examined by a rheumatologist to exclude the presence of inflammatory arthritis. Nineteen healthy controls were also recruited.

Project description:Background: Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disease primarily affecting the skin. Approximately one-third of psoriasis patients develop joint involvement and are diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). While, inIn adult-onset disease, adults, the development of arthritis usually follows skin psoriasis, but approximately 15% experience arthritis first, which can delay diagnosis. While the pathophysiology of psoriasis and PsA is incompletely understood, epigenetic dysregulation affecting CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells has been suggested. Objectives: This project aimed to identify disease-associated DNA methylation signatures in CD4+ T-cells from psoriasis and PsA patients that may be used as diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers. Methods: PBMCs were collected from 12 patients with chronic plaque skin psoriasis and 8 PsA patients, and 8 healthy controls. CD4+ T-cells were separated through FACS sorting, and DNA methylation profiling was performed (Illumina EPIC850K arrays). Bioinformatic analyses, including gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis, were performed using R software. To identify genes under the control of interferon (IFN), the Interferome database was consulted, and DNA Methylation Scores were calculated. Results: Numbers and proportions of CD4+ T-cell subsets (naïve, central memory, effector memory, CD45RA re-expressing effector memory cells) did not vary between controls, skin psoriasis and PsA patients. 883 differentially methylated positions (DMPs) affecting 548 genes were identified between healthy controls and “all” psoriasis patients. Principal component and partial least-squares discriminant analysis separated controls from skin psoriasis and PsA patients. GO analysis considering promoter DMPs delivered hypermethylation of genes involved in “regulation of wound healing, spreading of epidermal cells”, “negative regulation of cell-substrate junction organization” and “negative regulation of focal adhesion assembly”. Comparing controls and “all” psoriasis, a majority of DMPs mapped to IFN-related genes (69.2%). Notably, DNA methylation profiles also distinguished skin psoriasis from PsA patients (2,949 DMPs/1,084 genes) through genes affecting “cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor activity” and “cAMP-dependent protein kinase regulator activity” (GO analysis). Treatment with cytokine inhibitors (IL-17/TNF) corrected DNA methylation patterns of IL-17/TNF-associated genes, and methylation scores correlated with skin disease activity scores (PASI). Conclusion: DNA methylation profiles in CD4+ T-cells discriminate between skin psoriasis and PsA. DNA methylation signatures may be applied for quantification of disease activity and patient stratification towards individualized treatment. The aim of this study was to identify disease-associated DNA methylation signatures in CD4+ T-cells from patients with psoriasis and PsA that may be used as diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers to inform treatment and care.

Project description:TNF antagonists are routinely used in severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who failed conventional DMARD therapy. According to large clinical trials, the three available drugs (adalimumab, infliximab and etanercept) display similar effects in terms of efficacy, tolerability and side effects. These studies also indicate that about 25% of RA patients treated with TNF-antagonists do not display any significant clinical improvement. The aim of this study was to investigate global molecular patterns in synovial biopsies from RA patients obtained 12 weeks after initiation of adalimumab therapy.

Project description:Background: Psoriasis is a T cell-mediated chronic autoimmune/inflammatory disease. While some patients experience disease limited to the skin (skin psoriasis), others develop joint involvement (psoriatic arthritis; PsA). In the absence of disease- and/or outcome-specific biomarkers, and as arthritis can precede skin manifestations, diagnostic and therapeutic delays are common and contribute to disease burden and damage accrual. Objective: Altered epigenetic marks, including DNA methylation, contribute to effector T cell phenotypes and altered cytokine expression in autoimmune/inflammatory diseases. This project aimed at the identification of disease-/outcome-specific DNA methylation signatures in CD8+ T cells from patients with psoriasis and PsA as compared to heathy controls. Method: Peripheral blood CD8+ T cells from 9 healthy controls, 10 psoriasis and 7 PsA patients were collected to analyze DNA methylation marks using Illumina Human Methylation EPIC BeadChips (>850,000 CpGs per sample). Bioinformatic analysis was performed using R (minfi, limma, ChAMP and DMRcate packages). Results: DNA methylation profiles in CD8+ T cells differentiate healthy controls from psoriasis patients (397 Differentially Methylated Positions (DMPs); 9 Differentially Methylated Regions (DMRs) when ≥CpGs per DMR were considered; 2 DMRs for ≥10 CpGs). Furthermore, patients with skin psoriasis can be discriminated from PsA patients (1861 DMPs, 20 DMRs (≥5 CpGs per region), 4 DMRs (≥10 CpGs per region)). Gene ontology (GO) analyses considering genes with ≥1 DMP in their promoter delivered methylation defects in skin psoriasis and PsA primarily affecting the BMP signaling pathway and endopeptidase regulator activity, respectively. GO analysis of genes associated with DMRs between skin psoriasis and PsA demonstrated an enrichment of GABAergic neuron and cortex neuron development pathways. Treatment with cytokine blockers associated with DNA methylation changes (2372 DMPs; 1907 DMPs within promoters, 7 DMRs (≥5CpG per regions)) affecting transforming growth factor beta receptor and transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase signaling pathways. Lastly, a methylation score including TNF and IL-17 pathway associated DMPs inverse correlates with skin disease activity scores (PASI). Conclusion: Patients with skin psoriasis exhibit DNA methylation patterns in CD8+ T cells that allow differentiation from PsA patients and healthy individuals, and reflect clinical activity of skin disease. Thus, DNA methylation profiling promises potential as diagnostic and prognostic tool to be used for molecular patient stratification towards individualized treatment. This project aimed at the identification of disease-/outcome-specific DNA methylation signatures in CD8+ T cells from patients with psoriasis and PsA as compared to heathy controls.
