Disease-specific signature of serum miR-20b and its targets IL-8 and IL-25, in myasthenia gravis patients

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by antibodies directed against components of the neuromuscular junction. Currently, the diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation rely on the serum acetylcholine receptor (AchR) antibody titer, which is not reliable for monitoring. The disruption of the menus had been implicated in many immunological disorders, including MG. A quantitative PCR was used to evaluate the miR-20b level. ELISA was used to determine the levels of IL-8 and IL-25 in serum. QuantitativeMGscores (QMGS) were used to examine the clinical manifestations. Here, we report that miR-20b, an immune- and cancer-related miRNA, is decreased in the serum ofMGpatients and correlates negatively with QMGSs in the pretreatment stage. Furthermore, after treatment with prednisone acetate, levels of miR-20b recover but remain negatively correlated with the QMGS. We also identified that IL-8 and IL-25 are targets of miR-20b via the luciferase reporter system. Both of these are increased in MG and correlate negatively with miR-20b. Furthermore, IL-8 and IL-25 levels are decreased following treatment with prednisone acetate. Our data suggest that miR-20b might be a potential biomarker for MG.     

Increased concentrations of antibody against heat shock protein in patients with myeloperoxidase anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody positive microscopic polyangiitis

To determine serum antibody against human and bacterial heat shock protein (HSP) 60/70 in myeloperoxidase (MPO)-specific anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) positive microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), 58 patients with MPO-ANCA positive MPA, 48 with RA (rheumatoid arthritis) and 40 with SLE (systemic lupus erythematosus) were studied. Serum antibodies against HSP (human HSP 70, human HSP 60, Mycobacterium HSP 70, and Escherichia coli HSP 60) were measured by sandwich ELISA. The frequency of anti-human HSP 60/70 antibody positive patients was significantly greater in MPO-ANCA positive MPA than SLE and healthy controls. Anti-human HSP 60/70 antibody titers in patients with MPO-ANCA positive MPA were significantly higher than those of healthy controls; anti-bacterial HSP 60/70 antibody titers were also higher. There was a significant correlation between titers of anti-human HSP 70 antibody and anti-Mycobacterium HSP 70 antibody. A correlation was also found between titers of anti-human HSP 70 antibody and anti-human HSP 60 antibody. Anti-human and bacterial HSP 60/70 antibody titers changed in parallel with disease activity in patients with antibody positive MPA. The anti-HSP antibody titer was also increased in patients with RA and SLE. These results suggest that an immunological background via anti-HSP 60/70 antibodies might be associated with pathogenesis in MPO-ANCA positive MPA.     

Serologic response of Rio Grande wild turkeys to experimental infections of Mycoplasma gallisepticum

The serologic response of Rio Grande wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) to Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) was determined. Free-ranging turkeys were caught in southern Texas, shipped to the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and housed in isolation facilities. Fourteen birds were exposed to MG, by intratracheal and intranasal inoculation. Eight birds received sterile broth only. Two wk prior to the end of the experiment, MG exposed turkeys were stressed by challenge with a serologically unrelated mycoplasma. Serum from all exposed birds reacted positively for MG antibody by the rapid plate agglutination (RPA) procedure within 2 mo postexposure (PE) and all but one remained positive for 14 mo PE. Less than one half of the exposed birds developed positive MG antibody titers detectable by the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test within 2 mo PE, and by 10 mo PE, none had positive titers. Antibody was detected by the HI test in two of 11 infected turkeys, 14 mo PE, and titers increased significantly within 2 wk. MG was isolated from tracheal swabs from two infected birds 2 mo PE, but attempts thereafter failed. However, at the termination of the experiment 15 mo later, MG was isolated from lung tissue of three of 11 exposed turkeys and from a blood clot found in the lower trachea of one bird.     

Platelet Aggregation Test with Measles Antigen in Multiple Sclerosis

With the measles platelet aggregation test, a new technique recently developed for measuring virus antibody, 153 serum specimens from patients with multiple sclerosis and 164 controls were tested. With one of the three measles antigens used in the test a significantly higher positive rate (P<0·001) was obtained in the specimens from the patients with multiple sclerosis (40%) than in those from the controls (11%). The other two measles antigens also yielded slightly but not significantly higher positive rates in the patients with multiple sclerosis.

Effects of chromium on the immune system

The performance of integral membrane antigens (IMAs) of Mycobacterium habana TMC 5135 in detecting antimycobacterial antibodies in serum and body fluids of patients mainly of extrapulmonary tuberculosis was evaluated. The IMAs were recovered from the detergent phase during Triton X-114 treatment of the plasma membrane of M. habana. Antimycobacterial antibodies were detected by ELISA using IMAs in serum and body fluids of 42 patients and 62 control subjects. As authentic adjunct Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens were also detected (by ELISA) in body fluids and circulating immune complexes using anti-M. tuberculosis H37Ra antibodies. Anti-M. habana IMA antibody detection increased the positivity rate from 26.% (11/42) and 10% (4/42) obtained by culture and smear microscopy, respectively, to 86% (36/42). M. tuberculosis antigens were also found in 29 out of 36 anti-M. habana IMA antibody-positive cases. Interestingly, all 11 culture-positive cases were also positive for anti-M. habana IMA antibodies. The mean antigen titres in 23 cases, positive for antigens in body fluids, were 2.34 times higher in those who were also positive for anti-IMA antibodies in serum than in those negative for these antibodies. M. habana IMAs may be promising non-tubercular candidate antigens in ELISA-based serodiagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis with substantial sensitivity, specificity and safety.
