  • OBJECTIVE.: To quantify immunoglobulin and C1q on circulating cell-derived microparticles (MPs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to correlate this with clinical and serological parameters. METHODS.: Sixty-eight clinically well-characterized SLE patients, 38 healthy controls (HC), 6 systemic sclerosis (SSc), and 6 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients were included. The numbers of annexin V-binding MPs displaying IgG, IgM or C1q were enumerated by flow cytometry. MP protein levels were determined by mass spectrometry in clinically defined subsets of SLE patients and controls. The MP-IgG load was determined by flow cytometry of all SLE and HC samples. RESULTS.: SLE patients had significantly increased total and relative numbers of IgG-positive MPs (p = 0.0004) with a much higher average IgG-load/MP (p < 0.0001) than HCs. Quantitative mass spectrometry of purified MPs verified significantly increased IgG, IgM, and C1q in SLE. In RA and SSc the average IgG/MP was significantly lower than in SLE (p = 0.006 and 0.05, respectively). Also, IgM/MP and C1q/MP were higher in SLE than in controls (p < 0.05) except for IgM in the RA-group. IgG-positive MPs were significantly associated with the presence of anti-dsDNA, anti-ENA, and anti-histone antibodies, with total IgG, and with decreased leukocyte counts. Average IgG/MP was associated with lower concentrations of MPs, the presence of anti-C1q antibodies, and with complement consumption. CONCLUSIONS.: Circulating cell-derived MPs in SLE carry increased loads of IgG, IgM, and C1q and IgG-MPs are associated with autoantibodies and complement activation. The findings link immunological reactions on MPs with the etiopathology of SLE. © 2012 American College of Rheumatology.
