Project description:Genome-wide alternative splice analysis of RNA from lupus and its severe form lupus nephritis We aimed to explore the genome-wide peripheral blood transcriptome of lupus (SLE) and its severe form lupus nephritis (LN) cases compared to healthy subjects (HC) using high density Affymetrix Human Exon1.0.ST arrays. Analysis revealed 15 splice variants that are differentially expressed between SLE/HC and 99 variants between LN/HC (pâ¤0.05,SI>orâ¤0.5,Benjamin Hochberg-False discovery rate correction). Comparison between LN/SLE revealed 7 variants that are differentially expressed with pâ¤0.05,SI>0.5,Benjamin Hochberg-FDR correction. Pathway analysis of differentially spliced genes revealed 11 significant pathways in SLE and 12 in LN (p<0.05). Analysis of peripheral blood transcriptome revealed signature causative genes that are alternatively spliced, signifying their clinical relevance in the pathophysiology of disease. The extent of differential splicing was found to be higher in LN than in SLE, signifying the need for further in-depth research in the same domain. Present study is the first to reveal the significance of alternative variants in susceptibility to SLE and LN. We analyzed blood from 11 female subjects (5 lupus, 3 lupus nephritis and 3 healthy control) using the Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST platform. Array data was processed by Alt Analyze and Genespring software. No techinical replicates were performed. One of the outiler sample (HC2) was excluded from further analysis.

Project description:We previously reported that JAK/STAT pathway-mediated regulation of IRF-related genes may have an important role in the disease activity of SLE through analyzing the difference of gene expression in peripheral blood CD3+ T cells obtained from SLE patients. Recently pan-JAK inhibitor (JAKi) tofacitinib (TOFA) were developed and successfully applied to patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore, the application possibility of TOFA was investigated for the new therapeutic strategy of SLE. Anti-dsDNA antibody and proteinuria were decreased and glomerulo/interstitial nephritis were ameliorated in any TOFA administered SLE mice. In splenic CD4+ T cell analysis, naïve cells significantly increased and effector/memory cells decreased. TOFA with dexamethasone (DEXA) therapy showed tendency to indicate stronger inhibitory effect comparing with TOFA or DEXA monotherapy. The gene expression of Ifit3/IFIT3 that related with anti-viral IFN signaling pathway was significantly suppressed in both CD4+ from SLE mice and CD3+ T cells from SLE patients after treatment. Both TOFA monotherapy and dual therapy with DEXA could suppress nephritis and modify immunological function in SLE mice with different genetic background. IFN signaling pathway was supposed to be important for the functional mechanism of TOFA to improve the disease condition. TOFA may contribute to the development of a new therapeutic strategy for SLE. The gene expression analysis was compared among tofacitinib, tofacitinib+dexamethsone, dexamethsone and non-treated control groups and extracted TOFA specific decreased genes in NZBWF1 mice.

Project description:Antigen-specific regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress pathogenic autoreactivity and are potential therapeutic candidates for autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Lupus nephritis is associated with autoreactivity to the Smith (Sm) autoantigen and the human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-DR15 haplotype; hence, we investigated the potential of Sm-specific Tregs (Sm-Tregs) to suppress disease. We identified a novel HLA-DR15 restricted immunodominant Sm T cell epitope using biophysical affinity binding assays, then identified high-affinity Sm-specific T cell receptors (TCRs) using high-throughput single-cell sequencing. Using lentiviral vectors, we transduced our lead Sm-specific TCR onto Tregs derived from patients with SLE who were anti-Sm and HLA-DR15 positive. Compared with polyclonal mock-transduced Tregs, Sm-Tregs potently suppressed Sm-specific pro-inflammatory responses in vitro and suppressed disease progression in a humanized mouse model of lupus nephritis. These results show that Sm-Tregs are a promising therapy for SLE.

Project description:Membranous lupus nephritis is a frequent cause of nephrotic syndrome in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Unlike phospholipase A2 receptor or thrombospondin type 1 domain containing 7A-associated membranous nephropathy, where known antibodies can be detected within sera by indirect immunofluorescence and/or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, it is not possible to monitor disease activity in membranous lupus nephritis where the target autoantigens are mostly unknown. Determination of the target autoantigen has diagnostic significance, informs prognosis, and allows for non-invasive monitoring of disease activity in serum. We utilized mass spectrometry for antigen discovery of laser capture microdissected glomeruli from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue and tissue IgG immunoprecipitation studies from frozen kidney biopsy tissue. We identified neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1) to be a target antigen in membranous lupus nephritis and within rare cases of primary membranous nephropathy. The prevalence of NCAM1-associated membranous neuropathy was 5.7% of cases of membranous lupus nephritis. NCAM1 co-localizes with IgG within glomerular immune deposits. Additionally, serum from NCAM1 patients showed reactivity to NCAM1 recombinant protein. The presence of anti-NCAM1 antibodies in sera could allow for non-invasive monitoring of the disease. We propose that NCAM1 is a target autoantigen in a subset of patients with membranous lupus nephritis. Future studies are needed to determine whether anti-NCAM1 antibody levels correlate with disease activity or response to therapy.

Project description:Introduction: Pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (pSLE) patients often initially present with more active and severe disease than adults, including a higher frequency of lupus nephritis. Specific autoantibodies, including anti-C1q, anti-DNA and anti-alpha-actinin, have been associated with kidney involvement in SLE, and DNA antibodies are capable of initiating early stage lupus nephritis in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice. Over 100 different autoantibodies have been described in SLE patients, highlighting the need for comprehensive autoantibody profiling. Knowledge of the antibodies associated with pSLE and proliferative nephritis will increase the understanding of SLE pathogenesis, and may aid in monitoring patients for renal flare. Methods: We used autoantigen microarrays composed of 140 recombinant or purified antigens to compare the serum autoantibody profiles of new-onset pSLE patients (n=45) to healthy controls (n=17). We also compared pSLE patients with biopsy-confirmed class III or IV proliferative nephritis (n=23) and without significant renal involvement (n=18). We performed ELISA with selected autoantigens to validate the microarray findings. We created a multiple logistic regression model, based on the ELISA and clinical information, to predict whether a patient had proliferative nephritis, and used a validation cohort (n=23) and longitudinal samples (88 patient visits) to test its accuracy. Results: Fifty autoantibodies were at significantly higher levels in the sera of pSLE patients compared to healthy controls, including anti-B-cell activating factor (BAFF). High levels of anti-BAFF were associated with active disease. Thirteen serum autoantibodies were present at significantly higher levels in pSLE patients with proliferative nephritis than those without, and we confirmed five autoantigens (dsDNA, C1q, collagens IV & X and aggrecan) by ELISA. Our model, based on ELISA measurements and clinical variables, correctly identified patients with proliferative nephritis with 91% accuracy. Conclusions: Autoantigen microarrays are an ideal platform for identifying autoantibodies associated with both pSLE and specific clinical manifestations of pSLE. Using multiple regression analysis to integrate autoantibody and clinical data permits accurate prediction of clinical manifestations with complex etiologies in pSLE.

Project description:Neutrophyl Extracellular Traps (NETs) accumulated in serum of patients with Lupus Nephritis for defective removal by DNAse. Among a complex protein panel (overall 802) two clusters of 16 and 13 proteins were more expressed by LN and SLE NETs respectively; oxidized aenolase and annexin A1 were main components of the first series in LN. NETs may represent a source of modified intracellular antigens for autoimmunity in LN.
