Subtype-specific peripheral blood gene expression profiles in recent onset JIA

ABSTRACT: Objective: A multi-center study of recent onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) subjects prior to treatment with DMARDS or biologics was undertaken to identify peripheral blood gene expression differences between JIA subclasses and controls. Methods: PBMC from 59 healthy children and 136 JIA subjects (28 enthesitis-related arthritis[ERA], 42 persistent oligoarthritis, 45 RF- polyarthritis, and 21 systemic) were isolated on Ficoll. Poly-A RNA was labeled using NuGEN Ovation and gene expression profiles were obtained using Affymetrix HG-U133 plus 2.0 Arrays. Results: 9,501 differentially expressed probe sets were identified among JIA subtypes and controls (ANOVA, FDR 5%). Specifically, 193, 1036, 873 and 7595 probe sets were different between controls and ERA, persistent oligoarthritis, RF- polyarthritis and systemic JIA samples respectively. In persistent oligoarthritis, RF- polyarthritis and systemic JIA subtypes, up-regulation of gene associated with IL-10 signaling was prominent. A hemoglobin cluster was identified that was under-expressed in ERA patients but over-expressed in systemic JIA. The influence of JAK/STAT, ERK/MAPK, IL-2 and B cell receptor signaling pathways was evident in persistent oligoarthritis. In systemic JIA, up regulation of innate immune pathways, including IL-6, TLR/IL1R, and PPAR signaling were noted, along with down regulation of gene networks related to NK and T cells. Complement and coagulation pathways were up-regulated in systemic JIA with a subset of these components differentially-expressed in the other three subtypes. Conclusions: Expression analysis identified differentially expressed genes in PBMCs between subclasses of JIA early in disease and controls, thus providing evidence for immunobiologic differences between these forms of childhood arthritis. Keywords: Gene expression. PBMC. Patients compared with controls.

Project description:Objective. To identify gene expression differences in peripheral blood from patients with early and late onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from 56 healthy controls and 104 patients with recent onset JIA (39 persistent oligoarticular, 45 RF-polyarticular, and 20 systemic). Poly(A) RNA was amplified and labeled using NuGEN Ovation, and gene expression assessed with Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChips®. Results. A total of 832 probe sets revealed gene expression differences (false-discovery rate 5%) in PBMC from children with oligoarticular JIA whose disease began before 6 years of age (age at onset [AaO] <6; early onset), compared to subjects whose disease began at 6 years of age or later (AaO ?6; late onset). In early onset patients there was greater expression of genes related to B-cells, and lesser expression of genes related to cells of the myeloid lineage. Support Vector Machine algorithms identified samples from early or late onset oligoarticular (97% accuracy) or polyarticular (89% accuracy) JIA patients, but not systemic JIA patients or healthy controls. Principal component analysis showed that the major classifier of samples was AaO regardless of whether they had oligoarticular or polyarticular JIA. Conclusion. PBMC gene expression analysis reveals biologic differences between early and late onset JIA patients independent of classification based on the number of joints involved. These data suggest AaO may be an important parameter to consider in JIA classification. Furthermore, different pathologic mechanisms may influence AaO, and understanding these processes may lead to improved treatment of JIA. Methods. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from 56 healthy controls and 104 patients with recent onset JIA (39 persistent oligoarticular, 45 RF-polyarticular, and 20 systemic). Poly(A) RNA was amplified and labeled using NuGEN Ovation, and gene expression assessed with Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChips®.
