  • Selective antibody reactivity with peptides from human endogenous retroviruses and nonviral poly(amino acids) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

    • Objective. To investigate antibody responses to a broad panel of peptides derived from human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) among unselected patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods. In sera obtained from 69 patients with SLE and healthy blood donors, immunoassay was used to measure levels of antibody against synthetic peptides derived from HERVs, exogenous retroviruses, and nonviral poly(amino acids). Results. Measurement by immunoassay revealed increased frequencies of antiretroviral antibodies against 2 peptides derived from the env gene of the type C-like class, which includes ERV-9 and HERV-H, and against 2 peptides from the gag region of human T lymphotropic virus type I-related endogenous sequence 1, in patients with SLE. Antibodies to 2 nonviral peptides, polyhistidine and polyproline, were also overrepresented in patient sera. In 1 patient, longitudinal data obtained over a period of 12 years indicated that the concentrations of certain antiretroviral antibodies varied according to disease activity. Conclusion. Reactivity to certain type C HERV-derived antigens was found among patients with SLE. This reactivity could be explained by increased exposure to cross-reactive epitopes from essentially complete type C HERVs.

  • Synergetic effect between interleukin-1 receptor antagonist allele (IL1RN*2) and MHC class II (DR17,DQ2) in determining susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus
  • 1999
  • Ingår i: Lupus. - : SAGE Publications. - 0961-2033 .- 1477-0962. ; 8:2, s. 103-108

    • We investigated whether IL1RN alleles separately or in combination with MHC class II variants, contribute to susceptibility to SLE and to analysed if IL1RN alleles are markers of disease severity. We investigated 81 patients from a defined area in southern Sweden diagnosed between 1981-1992 and 10 consecutive Caucasian families with multiple cases of SLE. As control group 189 healthy blood donors was used. PCR amplification of defined gene sequences was used in determining the IL1RN polymorphism as well as the MHC class II variants. The IL-1RA levels were measured by an immunoassay. We found an increased frequency of IL1RN*2 in both the epidemiological cohort and in the multicase families (P < 0.01). Alone IL1RN*2 and MHC class II (DR17,DQ2) separately increased the SLE risk moderately. The occurrence of IL1RN*2 and MHC class II variants DR17 and DQ2 together increased the risk to develop SLE by a sevenfold. The IL-1RA gene polymorphism did not correlate with disease severity or with renal involvement. We found an association between IL1RN*1 and arthritis (P < 0.001). Serum level of IL-1RA did not correspond to any specific IL1RN allele. An increased frequency of IL1RN*2 suggests the presence of a gene, implemented in SLE-susceptibility, in the IL1RN region of chromosome 2. IL1RN*2 and specific variants of MHC class II act in synergy to increase disease susceptibility. IL1RN*1 may be a marker of risk for development of arthritis.

  • Sharing of MHC haplotypes among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus from unrelated Caucasian multicase families: disease association with the extended haplotype [HLA-B8, SC01, DR17]
  • 1995
  • Ingår i: Journal of Rheumatology. - 0315-162X. ; 22:10, s. 1852-1861
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune rheumatic disease often clustered in families. We investigated the association between MHC haplotypes and SLE in multicase Caucasian families. METHODS: Ten consecutive families with 2 or more patients with SLE, in total 27 patients among 66 individuals, were studied. MHC haplotypes were determined by typing for HLA-A, B, C, DR, and DQ by serological and DNA methods. Complotypes were determined by protein typing and C4 gene polymorphism by DNA analysis. RESULTS: Fifty-four independent MHC haplotypes were found. Ten of the 31 haplotypes in the patients with SLE were examples of the extended haplotype [HLA-B8,SC01,DR17]. Six of these were found in 2 or more patients with SLE within the same family. All the 14 SLE sib-pairs in the families shared at least one haplotype and in 9 of the sib-pairs the shared haplotype was [HLA-B8,SCO1,DR17]. Three SLE associated haplotypes were [HLA-B7,SC31,DR15]. Four of the 27 patients with SLE were C4A deficient. Two C2 deficient siblings were homozygous for the haplotype [HLA-B18,S042,DR15]. CONCLUSION: We demonstrate that a very limited number of MHC haplotypes are associated with familial SLE. The haplotype [HLA-B8,SCO1,DR17] was closely related with the disease. There was no evidence suggesting familial SLE constitutes a disease subset. Determination of MHC haplotypes in multicase families is of value for assessment of disease susceptibility.
