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: IL-17A plays a role in the pathology of spondyloarthritis (SpA), as evidenced by the clinical efficacy of IL-17A inhibitors (IL-17Ai). Nevertheless, the exact role of IL-17A in driving synovial inflammation and pathological remodeling remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the molecular pathways affected by IL-17Ai in SpA synovitis to determine whether this response is tissue- and/or treatment-specific. Methods: Synovial biopsies from 12 peripheral SpA (pSpA) patients before and after 12 weeks of IL-17Ai treatment were analyzed by RNA-sequencing and qPCRs. The synovial tissue response to IL-17Ai in 7 psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients was compared to: open-source gene expression data of skin biopsies from 15 psoriasis (PsO) patients treated with IL-17Ai; and synovial biopsies from 7 PsA patients receiving IL-12p40/IL-23p40 blockade. Results: Compared to baseline, IL-17Ai significantly modulated the expression of 1255 genes (549 upregulated and 706 downregulated, FDR < 0.1) in the synovium at week 12. The downregulated genes were predominantly associated with inflammatory processes and stromal functions. Comprehensive analysis revealed that IL-17Ai-mediated suppression of bone remodeling is independent of its inhibition of inflammatory pathways. While IL-17Ai consistently attenuated inflammation-related pathways in both psoriatic joints and skin, its effect on bone remodeling pathways was specific to the synovium. This distinguishes IL-17Ai from IL-12p40/IL-23p40 inhibitors, which, while mitigating synovial inflammation, did not affect tissue remodeling. Conclusions: Our findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of IL-17A blockade in pSpA, underscoring its unique role in selectively targeting bone-remodeling processes specific to the joints of individuals with SpA.

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.
