Project description:Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) are one of the hallmarks in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the in vivo function remained unclear. To investigate the effects of ACPAs, we expressed monoclonal ACPAs derived from RA patients, and analyzed the functions in mouse models, as well as the reactivity to tissue and peptides/proteins. All ACPAs showed no arthritogenicity and could not induce pain-like behavior in mice whereas one of them (E4) profoundly protected against antibody-induced arthritis. E4 showed a tissue binding pattern restricted to skin epithelial cells, to macrophages and dendritic cells in lymphoid tissue and to cartilage from mouse and human arthritic joints. Proteomic analysis showed that E4 had a distinct binding pattern to macrophage and RA synovial fluid proteins (e.g. alpha-enolase). The protective effect was epitope specific but also dependent on Fc-FCGR2B interaction on macrophages following the immune complex formation, resulting an increased IL-10 production and osteoclastogenesis reduction. The findings suggest that certain ACPAs could be protective in arthritis with therapeutic potentials.

Project description:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis and, bone and cartilage destruction. Although disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have dramatically improved clinical outcomes, these therapies are not universally effective in all patients due to the heterogeneity of RA pathogenesis. Therefore, there is still a need to elucidate molecular mechanisms underlying RA pathogenesis to identify novel therapeutic targets. In this study, we identified Budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1 (BUB1) was highly expressed in RA patients’ synovium and murine ankle tissue with arthritis. Since we revealed CD45+CD11b+ myeloid cells as Bub1 highly expressing population among synovial cells, myeloid cell-specific Bub1 conditional knockout (cKO) mice were generated. Obtained cKO mice showed no significant phenotypes in healthy conditions while they exhibited reduced bone mineral density under K/BxN serum-transfer arthritis. Moreover, histomorphometric analysis suggested that the reduced bone mass was caused by increased osteoclast differentiation and activation. RNA-seq and subsequent Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) demonstrated significantly enriched NF-κB pathway among up-regulated genes in RANKL-stimulated bone marrow macrophages obtained from Bub1 cKO, suggesting Bub1 KO macrophages are sensitive to inflammatory conditions. Indeed, osteoclastogenesis in Bub1 KO macrophages was enhanced by RANKL and TNFα treatment and localization of NF-κB component p65 was observed. Finally, osteoclastogenesis was increased by Bub1 inhibitor BAY1816032 treatment. These data suggested that BUB1 in myeloid cells plays a protective role against bone loss under inflammatory arthritis.

Project description:Treatment refractory Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a major clinical challenge. Drug-free remission is uncommon but provides proof-of-concept that articular immune-homeostasis can be reinstated. In this project, we used single-cell RNA- to study the role of synovial tissue macrophages in maintaining disease remission. We have sequenced synovial tissue macrophages from individuals with healthy synovium (as evaluated by MRI), patients with undifferentiated arthritis (UPA), RA patients naïve to treatment, RA patients resistant to treatment and RA patients in disease remission

Project description:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a devastating chronic inflammatory disorder affecting 0.5-1.0% of adults worldwide and is characterized by autoimmune reactivity and persistent active inflammation with concurrent tissue destruction. Animal models of RA provide an opportunity to understand disease pathogenesis and develop new therapeutic strategies . The DA inbred rat is commonly used in autoimmunity research due to its high susceptibility to several chronic inflammatory disorders such as arthritis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). The experimental arthritis induced by pristane, the arthritogenic component in mineral oil, in the DA rat can be classified with RA criteria, including a chronic relapsing disease course 5, 6. We have identified a mutation DA rat and the mutation plays a completely protective function in DA rats against EAE and pristane-induced arthritis (PIA). Macrophages are an essential source of pro-inflammatory cytokines in chronic inflammation and the progressive destruction of synovial joints. To elucidate the molecular mechanism by which the mutation regulates macrophage activation, we made quantitative mass spectrometry on the four groups of splenic macrophages: DA-control, DAMut-control, DA-PIA, DAMut-PIA.

Project description:The variant rs26232, in the first intron of the C5orf30 locus, has recently been associated with both risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and severity of tissue damage. The biological activities of human C5orf30 are unknown, and neither the gene nor protein show significant homology to any other characterized human sequences. The C5orf30 gene is present only in vertebrate genomes with a high degree of conservation implying a central function in these organisms. Here we report that C5orf30 is highly expressed in the synovium of RA patients compared with control synovial tissue, and that it is predominately expressed by synovial fibroblast (RASF) and macrophages in the lining and sublining layer of the tissue. These cells play a central role in the initiation and perpetuation of RA and are implicated in cartilage destruction. RASFs lacking C5orf30 exhibit increased cell migration and invasion in vitro and gene-profiling following C5orf30 inhibition confirmed upregulation of genes involved in cell migration, adhesion, angiogenesis, and immune and inflammatory pathways. Importantly, loss of C5orf30 contributes to the pathology of inflammatory arthritis in vivo, since inhibition of C5orf30 in the collagen-induced arthritis model markedly accentuated joint inflammation and tissue damage. Our study reveal C5orf30 to be a novel negative regulator of tissue damage in RA and this may act by modulating the autoaggressive phenotype that is characteristic of RASFs. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory disease that affects synovial joints. A key characteristic of RA is hyperplasia of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) which develop a stable, auto-aggressive phenotype that augments tissue destruction. It is unknown how this phenotype is stably maintained; however, epigenetic changes have been implicated. Histone deacetylation is one proposed method; a process controlled by histone deacetylases (HDACs). However, there have recently been reports publishing conflicting data regarding the expression of HDACs in RA synovium and FLS. The objective of this thesis is to determine the role of HDACs in regulating the auto-aggressive phenotype of RA through studies in FLS and in mice. Real time-quantitative PCR was used to assess the levels of HDAC1-11 in RA compared to osteoarthritis (OA) FLS. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were used to assess protein expression of HDAC1 in RA and OA synovial tissue and FLS. HDAC1 was found to be overexpressed in RA compared to OA. HDAC1 was knocked down in RA FLS, then cell proliferation, migration and invasion were assessed by using tritiated thymidine, a scratch assay and a Matrigel invasion assay respectively. All three functions were significantly reduced following HDAC1 knockdown. An Illumina BeadChip (47,000 transcripts) was used to analyse global gene expression changes after knockdown. This revealed significant gene changes in important functional clusters, such as proliferation and migration. HDAC1 knockout is embryonic lethal in mice, so the in vivo role of HDAC1 was investigated in a mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) using in vivo siRNAs. Clinical scores of CIA were measured daily and HDAC1 knockdown mice showed a significantly reduced clinical score compared to controls, comparable to dexamethasone-treated mice. The bones were analysed using a microCT scanner and histology. Knocking down HDAC1 showed reduced bone erosion, joint inflammation and cartilage degradation compared to controls. Overall, this study shows that HDAC1 is dysregulated in RA and it has a significant role in the autoaggressive phenotype shown in RA FLS and collagen-induced arthritis. The novel data shown in this thesis demonstrates that inhibiting HDAC1 may provide a powerful new target for treating RA. Three independent patient RASF samples were analysed in this study for each siRNA gene knockdown. Also a non targerting control siRNA was also used for each of the patient RASFs

Project description:The pathobiology of rheumatoid inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), involves the interplay between innate and adaptive immune components and resident synoviocytes. Single-cell analyses of patient samples and relevant mouse models have characterized many cellular subsets in RA. However, the impact of interactions between cell types is not fully understood. Here, we temporally profiled murine arthritic synovial isolates at the single-cell level to identify perturbations like those found in human RA. Notably, murine macrophage subtypes like those in RA patients were expanded in arthritis and linked to promoting the function of Th17 cells in the joint. In vitro experiments identified a capacity for murine macrophages to maintain the functionality and expansion of Th17 cells. Reciprocally, murine Th17 cell-derived TNFa induced CD38+ macrophages that enhanced Th17 functionality. Murine synovial CD38+ macrophages were expanded during arthritis and their depletion or blockade via TNFa-neutralization alleviated disease while reducing IL-17A-producing cells. These findings identify a cellular feedback loop that promotes Th17 cell pathogenicity through TNFa to drive inflammatory arthritis.

Project description:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a heterogeneous disease. We used cDNA microarray technology to subclassify RA patients and disclose disease pathways in rheumatoid synovium. Hierarchical clustering of gene expression data identified two main groups of tissues (RA-I and RA-II). A total of 121 genes were significantly higher expressed in the RA-I tissues, whereas 39 genes were overexpressed in the RA-II tissues. Among the 121 genes overexpressed in RA-I tissues, a relative majority of nine genes are located on chromosome 6p21.3. An interpretation of biological processes that take place revealed that the gene expression profile in RA-I tissues is indicative for an adaptive immune response. The RA-II group showed expression of genes suggestive for fibroblast dedifferentiation. Within the RA-I group, two subgroups could be distinguished; the RA-Ia group showed predominantly immune-related gene activity, while the RA-Ib group showed an additional higher activity of genes indicative for the classical pathway of complement activation. All tissues except the RA-Ia subgroup showed elevated expression of genes involved in tissue remodeling. These results confirm the heterogeneous nature of RA and suggest the existence of distinct pathogenic mechanisms that contribute to RA. The differences in expression profiles provide opportunities to stratify patients based on molecular criteria.
