Three Distinct Transcriptional Profiles of Monocytes Associate with Disease Activity in Scleroderma Patients

Hadijat-Kubura M. Makinde et al.

Summary: This study discovered that unbiased classification based on transcriptional signatures of classical monocytes (CMs) and nonclassical monocytes (NCMs) can be used to stratify systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients and correlate with disease activity. This method may serve as a biomarker for the severity of SSc.

Integrative analysis of 3604 GWAS reveals multiple novel cell type-specific regulatory associations

Charles E. Breeze et al.

Summary: This study developed the FORGE2 tool to investigate the functional mechanisms underlying GWAS associations by using information on cell type-specific regulatory elements. The study found that FORGE2 can identify disease risk associations specific to certain tissues and cell types and provide a greater understanding of underlying regulatory mechanisms. Additionally, the enrichment of tissue-specific repressive chromatin states and histone marks may play a role in the disease etiology mediated by GWAS.

Integrating genetic and social factors to understand health disparities in lupus

Paula S. Ramos

Summary: Social and genetic factors are associated with health outcomes in SLE, and there is a need to integrate genomic and health disparities research to understand how social exposures affect disease outcomes. The contributions of these factors to the SLE health disparity will inform the development of interventions to eliminate risk exposures and close the health disparity gap.

Advances in epigenetics in systemic sclerosis: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic potential

Pei-Suen Tsou et al.

Summary: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex inflammatory fibrotic disease with unknown etiology and partially understood pathogenesis, carrying the highest mortality rate among rheumatic diseases. Epigenetic aberrations play a crucial role in SSc pathogenesis, affecting immune cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts, presenting potential new avenues for therapeutic interventions.

Multiomic study of skin, peripheral blood, and serum: is serum proteome a reflection of disease process at the end-organ level in systemic sclerosis?

Victor Farutin et al.

Summary: The study analyzed serum proteins, PBCs, and skin gene expression in SSc patients. The findings suggest that serum proteins in SSc are more closely related to skin gene expression than PBCs, potentially reflecting disease severity at the end-organ level. This study highlights the dysregulations of profibrotic cytokines and key receptors in SSc serum protein profile.

Elizabeth R. Volkmann et al.

Summary: Data from two randomized controlled trials demonstrated that African American patients with SSc-ILD have similar morbidity and mortality outcomes compared with non-African American patients. These findings contrast with the racial disparities described in prior observational studies and warrant further investigation.
