    • Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the association of clinical and renal disease activity with circulating sphingolipids in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.Methods We used liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to measure the levels of 27 sphingolipids in plasma from 107 female systemic lupus erythematosus patients and 23 controls selected using a design of experiment approach. We investigated the associations between sphingolipids and two disease activity indices, the Systemic Lupus Activity Measurement and the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index. Damage was scored according to the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics damage index. Renal activity was evaluated with the British Island Lupus Activity Group index. The effects of immunosuppressive treatment on sphingolipid levels were evaluated before and after treatment in 22 female systemic lupus erythematosus patients with active disease.Results Circulating sphingolipids from the ceramide and hexosylceramide families were increased, and sphingoid bases were decreased, in systemic lupus erythematosus patients compared to controls. The ratio of C-16:0-ceramide to sphingosine-1-phosphate was the best discriminator between patients and controls, with an area under the receiver-operating curve of 0.77. The C-16:0-ceramide to sphingosine-1-phosphate ratio was associated with ongoing disease activity according to the Systemic Lupus Activity Measurement and the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index, but not with accumulated damage according to the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics Damage Index. Levels of C-16:0- and C-24:1-hexosylceramides were able to discriminate patients with current versus inactive/no renal involvement. All dysregulated sphingolipids were normalized after immunosuppressive treatment.Conclusion We provide evidence that sphingolipids are dysregulated in systemic lupus erythematosus and associated with disease activity. This study demonstrates the utility of simultaneously targeting multiple components of a pathway to establish disease associations.

  • Proteomics and metabolomics in the classification of SLE subsets
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology. - : Informa Healthcare. - 0300-9742 .- 1502-7732. ; 43:Suppl. 127 Meeting Abstract PP267, s. 95-95

    • Background: Systemic autoimmune diseases (SAIDs) affect about 0.5–1% of Europeans with a remarkable female predominance (80–90%). Present diagnostic entities are vague and rely on fairly old and unspecific criteria that do not use state-of-the-art laboratory parameters. New diagnostic tools and therapeutic/prognostic biomarkers are needed. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is regarded as a prototype for SAIDs and we hypothesized that subgroups of patients with SLE may have different pathogenesis and should consequently be subject to different treatment strategies. Our aim was to find new biomarkers to be used for the identification of more homogeneous patient populations.Method: This study involved 320 SLE patients from the Karolinska lupus cohort and 320 age- and gender-matched controls. Plasma samples were analysed using an antibody Luminex assay with 367 antibodies targeting 281 unique selected proteins. Subsets of the SLE cohort and controls were also analysed for their sphingolipid content, as well as by a metabolomic and mass spectrometry-based proteomic approach.Results: The Luminex platform revealed 66 proteins found at higher or lower levels in SLE. Mass spectrometry-based proteomics has shown very promising data for the components of the complement and coagulation cascades. Metabolomics identified patterns of plasma metabolites that separate SLE from controls. Finally, analysis of >30 sphingolipids demonstrated a specific group of these lipids at significantly higher concentrations in SLE compared to controls. Following treatment, these differences were normalized.Conclusions: Preliminary data demonstrate the involvement of several distinct biochemical pathways in SLE that can be used for biomarker discovery and a better understanding of the pathophysiological events underlying the disease.
