Background
TNF alpha blockade agents like infliximab are actually the treatment of choice for those rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who fail standard therapy. However, a considerable percentage of anti-TNF alpha treated patients do not show a significant clinical response. Given that new therapies for treatment of RA have been recently approved, there is a pressing need to find a system that reliably predicts treatment response. We hypothesized that the analysis of whole blood gene expression profiles of RA patients could be used to build a robust predictor to infliximab therapy.Methods and Findings
We performed microarray gene expression analysis on whole blood RNA samples from RA patients starting infliximab therapy (n = 44). The clinical response to infliximab was determined at week 14 using the EULAR criteria. Blood cell populations were determined using flow cytometry at baseline, week 2 and week 14 of treatment. Using complete cross-validation and repeated random sampling we identified a robust 8-gene predictor model (96.6% Leave One Out prediction accuracy, P = 0.0001). Applying this model to an independent validation set of RA patients, we estimated an 85.7% prediction accuracy (75–100%, 95% CI). In parallel, we also observed a significantly higher number of CD4+CD25+ cells (i.e. regulatory T cells) in the responder group compared to the non responder group at baseline (P = 0.0009).Conclusions
The present 8-gene model obtained from whole blood expression efficiently predicts response to infliximab in RA patients. The application of the present system in the clinical setting could assist the clinician in the selection of the optimal treatment strategy in RA. 相似文献2.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are the major types of arthritis. Although both diseases are characterized by joint destruction, their etiologies are different. To get insights into pathophysiological pathways, we used the suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) method to identify differentially expressed genes in RA. DNA sequencing identified 12 gene products including cytoskeletal γ-actin and extracellular matrix components such as fibronectin, collagen IIIα1, and superficial zone protein. Interferon γ-inducible genes such as a novel thiol reductase, two genes of unknown function (HSIFNIN4, RING3), and annexin II were also found. Two genes encoded proteins involved in proliferation such as elongation factor 1α and the granulin precursor. Furthermore, the protease cathepsin B and synovial phospholipase A2 group IIA were detected by SSH. To confirm the differential expression of the genes, we performed RT-PCR analyses of RA and OA synovial tissues. Compared to OA patients, 9 of the 12 genes were overexpressed in RA, suggesting that SSH is a powerful tool for the detection of differential gene expression in synovial tissues. Further characterization of the gene products may help to identify pathophysiological mechanisms in arthritic diseases. 相似文献

Response to treatment of rheumatoid arthritis shows large inter-individual variability. This heterogeneity is observed with all the anti-rheumatic drugs, including the commonly used TNF inhibitors. It seems that drug-specific and target-specific factors lead individual patients to respond or not to a given drug, although this point has been challenged. The search of biomarkers distinguishing responders from non-responders has included shotgun proteomics of serum, as a previous study of response to infliximab, an anti-TNF antibody. Here, we have used the same study design and technology to search biomarkers of response to a different anti-TNF antibody, adalimumab, and we have compared the results obtained for the two anti-TNF drugs. Search of biomarkers of response to adalimumab included depletion of the most abundant serum proteins, 8-plex isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) labeling, two-dimensional liquid chromatography fractionation and relative quantification with a hybrid Orbitrap mass spectrometer. With this approach, 264 proteins were identified in all the samples with at least 2 peptides and 95% confidence. Nine proteins showed differences between non-responders and responders (P < 0.05), representing putative biomarkers of response to adalimumab. These results were compared with the previous study of infliximab. Surprisingly, the non-responder/responder differences in the two studies were not correlated (rs = 0.07; P = 0.40). This overall independence with all the proteins showed two identifiable components. On one side, the putative biomarkers of response to either adalimumab or infliximab, which were not shared and showed an inverse correlation (rs = -0.69; P = 0.0023). On the other, eight proteins showing significant non-responder/responder differences in the analysis combining data of response to the two drugs. These results identify new putative biomarkers of response to treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and indicate that they are notably drug-specific. 相似文献

The Devonshire Royal Hospital, Buxton, England, was developed from a spa hospital into the Manchester Regional Centre for Rheumatism and Rehabilitation. Patients with active rheumatoid disease are admitted to the hospital''s Rheumatism Service, not to the Rehabilitation Unit. Fifty per cent of patients admitted to the Rehabilitation Unit have rheumatoid arthritis, with reablement or resettlement as their main problem. Nine hundred and eighty-eight rheumatoid patients admitted in a period of five years had chronic disease but recent disability (633 off work under one year). Their average hospital stay was 10 weeks. Five hundred and forty-four were admitted severely disabled; 247 were discharged so graded. One hundred and thirty-eight were fit for some work on admission and 498 on discharge. Sixty-five per cent of housewives could run their homes. In a sample of 100 male rheumatoid patients, 39 men were fit for their own jobs and were easily placed; 43 needed lighter work and over 20 of these were adequately resettled when checked at three and 36 months. The earnings of these men exceeded the cost of rehabilitation for the whole group. 相似文献

Background
Angiogenesis is considered an important factor in the pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) where it has been proposed as a therapeutic target. In other settings, active angiogenesis is characterized by pathologic, immature vessels that lack periendothelial cells. We searched for the presence of immature vessels in RA synovium and analyzed the dynamics of synovial vasculature along the course of the disease, particularly after therapeutic response to TNF antagonists.Methodology/Principal Findings
Synovial arthroscopic biopsies from RA, osteoarthritis (OA) and normal controls were analyzed by double labeling of endothelium and pericytes/smooth muscle mural cells to identify and quantify mature/immature blood vessels. To analyze clinicopathological correlations, a cross-sectional study on 82 synovial biopsies from RA patients with variable disease duration and severity was performed. A longitudinal analysis was performed in 25 patients with active disease rebiopsied after anti-TNF-α therapy. We found that most RA synovial tissues contained a significant fraction of immature blood vessels lacking periendothelial coverage, whereas they were rare in OA, and inexistent in normal synovial tissues. Immature vessels were observed from the earliest phases of the disease but their presence or density was significantly increased in patients with longer disease duration, higher activity and severity, and stronger inflammatory cell infiltration. In patients that responded to anti-TNF-α therapy, immature vessels were selectively depleted. The mature vasculature was similarly expanded in early or late disease and unchanged by therapy.Conclusion/Significance
RA synovium contains a significant fraction of neoangiogenic, immature blood vessels. Progression of the disease increases the presence and density of immature but not mature vessels and only immature vessels are depleted in response to anti-TNFα therapy. The different dynamics of the mature and immature vascular fractions has important implications for the development of anti-angiogenic interventions in RA. 相似文献12.

sTNFR-IgGFc融合基因在内皮细胞中的表达及其对小鼠关节炎模型的基因治疗研究 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:3
可溶性肿瘤坏死因子受体(sTNFR)可以拮抗肿瘤坏死因子的活性,因此已被用来治疗与TNF相关的炎性疾病。本研究将sTNFR与IgGFc片段的融合蛋白基因克隆到真核表达载体pStar上,转染到人的内皮细胞中,获得了表达。表达的sTNFR-IgGFc能够拮抗TNFα对L929细胞的细胞毒活性。将该质粒DNA与脂质体混合,经尾静脉注射到Ⅱ型胶原诱导的关节炎小鼠体内后,应用RT-PCR在鼠的肝脏检测到了sTNFR-IgGFc的表达,并显著地改善了治疗组小鼠关节炎症状和病理反应。这表明抗TNF基因治疗有可能作为治疗类风湿性关节炎的新的途径。 相似文献
