Abstract

- Seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by the presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) with different fine-specificities. Yet, other serum anti-modified protein autoantibodies (AMPA), e.g. anti-carbamylated (Carb), anti-acetylated (KAc), and anti-malondialdehyde acetaldehyde (MAA) modified protein antibodies, have been described. By using RA patient single-cell derived monoclonal antibodies we have previously shown that individual ACPA clones recognize small distinct citrulline-containing epitopes giving them extensive multireactivity when these epitopes are found in many peptides and proteins. Moreover, certain CCP2+ multireactive ACPA clones bind also to cabamylated and acetylated autoantigens [1].Objectives:To provide a comprehensive evaluation of serum IgG and IgA autoreactivity to different post-translational modifications in RA.Methods:We analyzed 30 different IgG and IgA AMPA reactivities to modified antigens by ELISA and autoantigen arrays, in N=1985 newly diagnosed RA patients and population controls. The study utilized both previously established (i.e IgG and IgA CCP2; IgG ACPA fine-specificities; IgG anti-Carb fibrinogen and Carb FCS; IgG and IgA Cit/Carb/KAc/Orn(Ac)-vimentin), and novel assays (e.g. IgG anti-MAA and IgG anti-acetylated histones). Association with patient characteristics such as smoking and disease activity were explored. The newly developed assays were also evaluated in SLE disease controls and CCP2+ RA-risk individuals without arthritis.Results:Carb and KAc reactivities by different assays were primarily seen in patients also positive for citrulline-reactivity. Modified vimentin (mod-Vim) peptides were used for direct comparison of different AMPA reactivities, revealing that IgA AMPA recognizing mod-Vim was mainly detected in subsets of patients with high IgG anti-Cit-Vim levels and a history of smoking. IgG acetylation reactivity was mainly detected in a subset of patients with Cit and Carb reactivity. Anti-acetylated histone 2B reactivity was RA-specific and associated with high anti-CCP2 IgG levels, multiple ACPA fine-specificities, and smoking. This reactivity was also found to be present in CCP2+ RA-risk individuals without arthritis. Our data further demonstrate that IgG autoreactivity to MAA was increased in RA compared to controls with highest levels in CCP2+ RA, but was not RA-specific, and showed low correlation with other AMPA. Anti-MAA was instead associated with disease activity and was not significantly increased in CCP2+ individuals at risk of RA. Notably, RA patients could be subdivided into four different subsets based on their AMPA IgG and IgA reactivity profiles.Conclusion:We conclude that autoantibodies exhibiting different patterns of ACPA fine-specificities as well as Carb and KAc reactivity are present in RA and may be derived from multireactive B-cell clones. Anti-Carb and anti-KAc could be considered reactivities within the “Cit-umbrella” similar to ACPA fine-specificities, while MAA is distinctly different.References:[1]Sahlström P, Hansson M, Steen J, Amara K, Titcombe PJ, Forsström B, Stålesen R, Israelsson L, Piccoli L, Lundberg K, Klareskog L, Mueller DL, Catrina AI, Skriner K, Malmström V, Grönwall C.
