Project description:Objective: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has substantial unmet medical need and its pathogenesis is incompletely understood. This study characterized baseline gene expression and pharmacodynamic (PD)-induced changes in whole blood gene expression from two phase III, 52-week (W), randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies of 1,760 SLE patients treated with the B cell activating factor (BAFF)-blocking IgG4 monoclonal antibody, tabalumab. Methods: Patient samples were obtained from ILLUMINATE-1 and -2 while control samples were from healthy donors. Blood was collected in TempusTM tubes at baseline, W16 and W52. RNA was analyzed using the Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 and NanoStringTM. Results: At baseline there was elevation of interferon responsive genes (IRG) in patients compared to controls, with 75% positive for this IRG signature. There was, however, substantial heterogeneity of IRG expression and complex relationships among gene networks. The interferon signature was a predictor of future time to flare, independent of anti-double stranded DNA antibody (dsDNA), C3 and C4 levels, and overall disease activity. PD changes in gene expression following tabalumab treatment were extensive, occurring predominantly in B cell-related and immunoglobulin (Ig) genes, and were consistent with other PD-induced changes including dsDNA, C3, and Ig levels. Conclusions: SLE patients demonstrated elevated expression of an IRG signature, detected in 75% of the patients at baseline in ILLUMINATE-1 and -2. There was substantial heterogeneity of gene expression detected among individual patients and in gene networks. The interferon signature was an independent risk factor for future flares. PD changes in gene expression were consistent with the mechanism of BAFF blockade by tabalumab.

Project description:Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease that displays a significant gender difference in terms of incidence and severity. However, the underlying mechanisms accounting for sexual dimorphism remain unclear. To reveal the heterogeneity in the pathogenesis of SLE between male and female patients. PBMC were collected from 15 patients with SLE (7 males, 8 females) and 15 age-matched healthy controls (7 males, 8 females) for proteomic analysis. Enrichment analysis of proteomic data revealed that type I interferon signaling and neutrophil activation networks mapped to both male and female SLE, while male SLE has a higher level of neutrophil activation compared with female SLE. Our findings define gender heterogeneity in the pathogenesis of SLE and may facilitate the development of gender-specific treatments.

Project description:Mature neutrophis were freshly isolated from blood of pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and healthy donors. Illumina microarray was used to assess transcriptional changes between SLE group and Control group. To uderstand further the gene expression difference between SLE and healthy neutrofils, neutrophils from healthy donors were cultured with autologous sera, SLE sera or Interferon and microarray data was used to compare with fresh SLE neutrophils.
