- W2000607586 abstract "<h3>Background</h3> Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prototypic autoimmune disease characterised by a prominent humoral autoimmunity. Of particular relevance is the local production of autoantibodies such as rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies in the inflamed synovial tissue. The mechanisms underlying break of B cell tolerance and local autoantibody production remains poorly understood. <h3>Objectives</h3> To identify cellular and molecular pathways implicated in RA-specific humoral autoimmunity. <h3>Methods</h3> Synovial tissue samples were obtained by arthroscopy from untreated individuals with RA (n = 33) and inflammation matched SpA controls (n = 58). Gene expression profiling was performed on tissue samples of patients with established arthritis using 44K. Whole Genome Human microarrays (Agilent). Top differentially expressed genes were validated on three independent cohorts by Taqman based RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry. Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) experiments were conducted using Bob1 knockout mice and their littermate controls. <h3>Results</h3> Microarray screening for genes differentially expressed in the inflamed synovium, the key target of the disease process in RA, revealed a prominent and disease-specific B cell/plasma cell signature with the B cell-specific transcriptional co-activator Bob1 and its transcriptional target BCMA among the most upregulated genes. Validation by RT-qPCR on two independent cohorts representing early and established arthritis confirmed microarray data and demonstrated elevated expression of Bob1 and BCMA not only in established RA, but also at the early phase of the disease. Quantitative evaluation of immunohistochemical stainings of synovial tissue with monoclonal antibody for Bob1 revealed significant increase in Bob1 positive cells in RA synovium (p < 0.01). Next we determined whether lack of functional Bob1 modifies disease onset or severity in CIA. Interestingly, the results showed that Bob1<sup>−</sup><sup>/</sup><sup>−</sup> mice were fully resistant to CIA induction compared to their wild-type littermates. This remarkable protection from CIA is explained by decreased antigen-presentation/costimulatory capacity of B cells and by failure to produce pathogenic anti-collagen autoantibodies in the absence of Bob1. <h3>Conclusions</h3> The specific increase in Bob1 expressing cells in RA synovitis and the resistance of Bob1-deficient mice to development of CIA indicate that Bob1/BCMA axis may contribute to humoral autoimmunity in RA. The relationship between an aberrant Bob1 expression and the break of peripheral tolerance in RA is currently under investigation." @default.
