Cím:Regulatory T cells in peripheral blood of patients with mixed connective tissue disease / Baráth Sándor, Sipka Sándor, Szodoray Péter, Szegedi Andrea, Aleksza Magdolna, Végh Judit, Szegedi Gyula, Bodolay Edit
Dátum:2006
Megjegyzések:To determine the percentage and absolute number of CD4+ regulatory T-cells (Treg) in 48 patients with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD). METHODS: Data were classified on the basis of the stage of the disease: 17 patients were in the active stage and 31 in the inactive stage. The absolute number of CD4+/intracellular interleukin-10+ (IL-10+) and CD4+CD25+high Treg cells was determined by flow cytometry. The percentage of CD4+CD25+high suppressor T-cells was determined on the basis of Foxp3 expression. RESULTS: The percentage and the absolute number of CD4+CD25+high Treg cells were lower in patients than in healthy controls (p<0.04), and were further decreased in patients with active MCTD and were lower than in the inactive stage (p<0.01). There was an increase in the percentage and absolute number of CD4+IL-10+ Treg cells in patients with MCTD compared to the healthy controls (p<0.02). The percentage of CD4+IL-10+ Treg cells was higher in the active stage of MCTD than in the inactive stage of the disease (p<0.005). However, we did not find any significant difference in the absolute number of CD4+IL-10+ Treg cells between the patients in the active and inactive stages of MCTD. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the decrease in the number of CD4+CD25+high Treg cells in an important factor in the immunoregulatory disturbance in patients with MCTD. We suggest that the increase in the number of CD4+IL-10+ Treg cells is a compensatory mechanism aiming to restore the balance between type 1 and type 2 cytokines in MCTD.

Megjegyzések:Studies indicate that ankylosing spondylitis (AS), as well as rheumatoid arthritis, may be associated with accelerated atherosclerosis and vascular disease. We assessed endothelial dysfunction, carotid atherosclerosis, and aortic stiffness in AS in context with clinical and laboratory measurements. METHODS: Forty-three patients with AS and 40 matched healthy controls were studied. We assessed common carotid intima-media thickness (ccIMT), flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), and pulse-wave velocity (PWV) in association with age, disease duration, smoking habits, body mass index, patient's assessment of pain and disease activity, Bath AS Disease Activity Index, Bath AS Functional Index (BASFI), metric measurements, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, and HLA-B27 status. RESULTS: We found impaired FMD (6.85 +/- 2.98% vs 8.30 +/- 3.96%; p = 0.005), increased ccIMT (0.65 +/- 0.15 vs 0.54 +/- 0.15 mm; p = 0.01), and higher PWV (8.64 +/- 2.44 vs 8.00 +/- 1.46 m/s; p = 0.03) in patients with AS compared to controls, respectively. We also found that ccIMT negatively correlated with FMD (r = -0.563; p = 0.0001) and positively correlated with PWV (r = 0.374; p = 0.018). Both ccIMT and PWV correlated with disease duration (r = 0.559; p = 0.013 and r = 0.520; p = 0.022, respectively), BASFI (r = 0.691; p = 0.003 and r = 0.654; p = 0.006), decreased lumbar spine mobility (r = -0.656; p = 0.006 and r = -0.604; p = 0.013), chest expansion (r = -0.502; p = 0.047 and r = -0.613; p = 0.012), and increased wall-occiput distance (r = 0.509; p = 0.044 and r = 0.614; p = 0.011). CONCLUSION: In this well characterized AS population, impaired FMD and increased ccIMT and PWV indicate abnormal endothelial function and increased atherosclerosis and aortic stiffness, respectively. The value of noninvasive diagnostic tools needs to be further characterized.

Cím:Endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis : a multiparametric analysis using imaging techniques and laboratory markers of inflammation and autoimmunity / Kerekes György, Szekanecz Zoltán, Dér Henrietta, Sándor Zsuzsa, Lakos Gabriella, Muszbek László, Csípő István, Sipka Sándor, Seres Ildikó, Paragh György, Kappelmayer János, Szomják Edit, Veres Katalin, Szegedi Gyula, Shoenfeld Yehuda, Soltész Pál
Dátum:2008
Megjegyzések:Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Endothelial dysfunction often precedes manifest atherosclerosis. We assessed endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis in RA in context with laboratory markers. METHODS: Fifty-two patients with RA and 40 matched healthy controls were studied. We assessed common carotid intima-media thickness (ccIMT) and flow- (FMD) and nitroglycerine-mediated vasodilation (NMD). We also assayed numerous immunological and metabolic laboratory markers. RESULTS: FMD was significantly lower in RA (5.32% +/- 4.66%) compared to controls (8.30% +/- 3.96%) (p = 0.001). NMD was preserved in RA. ccIMT was significantly greater in patients with RA (0.63 +/- 0.14 mm) versus controls (0.54 +/- 0.15 mm) (p = 0.012). In patients with RA, ccIMT correlated with FMD% (R = -0.318, p = 0.022), age (R = 0.831, p < 0.001), and anti-dsDNA levels (R = 0.463, p = 0.006). FMD% correlated with serum interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) levels (R = 0.516, p = 0.014). NMD% correlated inversely with the percentage of Th0 lymphocytes (R = -0.636, p = 0.006), serum immune complex (R = -0.692, p < 0.001), and IgM levels (R = -0.606, p = 0.003). Patients with RA were divided as "low" (< 0.65 mm) versus "high" (> 0.65 mm) ccIMT groups, and into "normal" (> 5%) versus "impaired" (< 5%) FMD% subsets. Low and high ccIMT groups differed significantly in age and serum interleukin 1 (IL-1) and anti-dsDNA levels. RA patients with normal versus impaired FMD% differed significantly in age, disease duration, and serum IFN-gamma levels. Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] also correlated with rheumatoid factor (RF) and C-reactive protein (CRP); homocysteine (HCy) correlated with CRP and correlated inversely with folate and vitamin B12 production. Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) activity correlated with serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-alpha) and IL-6 levels. CONCLUSION: This was a well characterized RA population, where FMD and ccIMT were impaired, indicating early endothelial dysfunction and accelerated atherosclerosis, respectively. RA-related autoimmune-inflammatory mechanisms and metabolic factors including anti-CCP, RF, CRP, circulating immune complexes, IgM, TNF-alpha, IL-6, Th0/Th1 ratio, HCy, folate, vitamin B12, and PON-1 may all be involved in the development of vascular disease in RA. Although ccIMT and FMD, as well as some laboratory factors, have been assessed by other investigators in RA-associated atherosclerosis, our results regarding the possible involvement of anti-CCP, anti-dsDNA, Lp(a), some cytokines, and PON-1 activity are novel. Early determination of FMD% and ccIMT may be useful to assess RA patients with high cardiovascular risk.

Cím:Antiprothrombin and antiannexin V antibodies imply risk of thrombosis in patients with systemic autoimmune diseases / Gabriella Lakos, Emese Kiss, Nora Regeczy, Peter Tarjan, Pal Soltesz, Margit Zeher, Edit Bodolay, Gabriella Szucs, Szilvia Szakony, Sandor Sipka, Gyula Szegedi
Dátum:2000
Megjegyzések:To investigate the relationship between antiprothrombin (aPT) and antiannexin V (aANX) autoantibodies of IgG isotype and thrombosis in patients with systemic autoimmune diseases. To compare the clinical relevance of these antibodies to that of anticardiolipin (aCL), anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibodies (anti-beta2-GPI), and lupus anticoagulant (LAC). METHODS: Serum IgG aPT, aANX, aCL, and anti-beta2-GPI levels were measured by solid phase enzyme immunoassay in the sera of 70 patients with systemic autoimmune diseases, 35 with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and 35 without APS. Medical records were analyzed, and associations of the antibodies with clinical features of APS were assessed. RESULTS: Patients with APS had higher frequency of aPT (p = 0.001) and aANX (p = 0.002) compared to patients without APS. Thrombotic events occurred more frequently in those with aPT or aANX than those without (p = 0.005, p = 0.006, respectively). The presence of aPT and aANX was found to be highly specific for APS. CONCLUSION: Measurement of aPT and aANX antibodies may be of value in confirming the diagnosis of APS, and in evaluating risk of venous and arterial thrombosis in patients with systemic autoimmune diseases.

Cím:Altered T-cell and regulatory cell repertoire in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis / Papp Gábor, Horvath Ildikó Fanny, Barath Sándor, Gyimesi Edit, Sipka Sándor, Szodoray Péter, Zeher Margit
Dátum:2011
Megjegyzések:The aim of this study was to evaluate a wide spectrum of peripheral immune-competent cell types, reflecting overall disturbances in immune homeostasis, characteristic of systemic sclerosis (SSc). We also assessed visceral organ involvement and evaluated the relationship between cell proportions and clinical symptoms of the disease. Methods: Twenty-one patients with diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc) and 15 healthy individuals participated in the study. Peripheral blood lymphocyte subgroups were quantified by flow cytometry, soluble cytokines were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), serum complement levels were measured by nephelometry, and autoantibodies were determined by indirect immunofluorescence staining and ELISA technique. Functional tests of regulatory T (Treg) cells were also carried out. Results: Patients with SSc had higher percentages of activated CD3+/HLA-DR+ T cells. Comparing naive vs. memory subsets of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, a shift towards central memory phenotype was observed in SSc. Natural killer (NK) and T-helper (Th)17 cell percentages were increased, while NKT, Th1, Treg type 1 (Tr1), and CD4+CD25+ Treg cell percentages were decreased in patients. Moreover, the suppressor activity of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells was lower in SSc. Negative correlations occurred between modified Rodnan skin score (MRSS) and Tr1 cell percentages and between complement levels and CD4+CD25+ Treg cells. We also found decreased interleukin (IL)-10 levels in SSc. Conclusions: Our data suggest that the increased Th17/CD4+CD25+ Treg ratio and the altered regulatory function of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells play an important role in the development of SSc. Moreover, our study reveals the potential role of the decreased profile of IL-10-producing Tr1 cells in the progression of disproportionate immune responses in SSc.

Cím:Decreased arachidonic acid release in peripheral blood monocytes of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus / Sándor Sipka, Sándor Szántó, Kornélia Szűcs, Ildikó Kovács, Emese Kiss, Péter Antal-Szalmás, Gabriella Lakos, Magdolna Aleksza, Árpád Illés, Pál Gergely, Gyula Szegedi
Dátum:2001
Megjegyzések:OBJECTIVE: To investigate the release of arachidonic acid (AA) in unfractionated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), separated monocytes and T lymphocytes of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: AA release was measured in cells from 56 patients with SLE and from 48 controls. Of the 56 patients with SLE, 38 were receiving glucocorticosteroids and 18 were not. [3H]AA was incorporated into the membranes of PBMC and purified subsets of monocytes and T lymphocytes. The release of [3H]AA was measured both in nonstimulated cells cultured for 24 h and in cell cultures stimulated by phorbol ester (PMA) and Ca2+ ionophore for 4 h. RESULTS: In the PBMC of SLE patients not taking glucocorticosteroids, the release of AA was decreased in both stimulated and nonstimulated cells. There was a decrease of AA production in monocytes but not in T lymphocytes. This phenomenon could be observed in the active and inactive phases of the disease. CONCLUSION: A defect in AA production may exist in the peripheral monocytes of patients with SLE, resulting in decreased release of AA in patients not receiving glucocorticosteroid therapy.

Cím:Clinical evaluation of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin by ELISA in rheumatoid arthritis / Lilla Soós, Zoltán Szekanecz, Zoltán Szabó, Andrea Fekete, Margit Zeher, Ildikó F. Horváth, Katalin Dankó, Anikó Kapitány, Anikó Végvári, Sandor Sipka, Gyula Szegedi, Gabriella Lakos

Megjegyzések:Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies have emerged as sensitive and specific serological markers of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, antibodies to several other citrulline-containing proteins, including citrullinated fibrin and vimentin, have been detected in patients with RA, suggesting that citrulline is an essential constituent of autoantigens for RA-specific autoantibodies. We examined the diagnostic performance of the newly developed anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) antibody assay. METHODS: Concentrations of anti-MCV, anti-CCP2, and rheumatoid factors (RF) were determined in the sera of 237 individuals: 119 patients with RA and 118 controls, including patients with other rheumatic diseases and healthy subjects. Diagnostic properties were compared by receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS: Using manufacturer's recommended cutoff values, sensitivity and specificity of anti-MCV antibodies were 75.6% and 91.5% in RA, compared to 66.4% and 98.3% for anti-CCP2. Introducing cutoff values to obtain the same 95% specificity resulted in decreased sensitivity of the anti-MCV test (69.7%) and increased sensitivity of the anti-CCP2 test (74.8%). At optimal cutoff levels, 29.4% of IgM RF-negative cases as well as 13.3% of anti-CCP2-negative cases in the RA group were anti-MCV-positive. Double-positivity for anti-MCV and anti-CCP2 provided 98.3% specificity with 97.5% positive predictive value in RA. CONCLUSION: Overall, the performance of the novel anti-MCV ELISA for the diagnosis of RA is similar to that of the anti-CCP2 test [area under the curve 0.853 (95% CI 0.801-0.905) vs 0.910 (95% CI 0.873-0.946); p not significant]. As the diagnostic spectrum of the anti-MCV assay is somewhat different from that of anti-CCP2, the combined application of the 2 assays can improve the laboratory diagnostics of RA.

Megjegyzések:To determine the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), we investigated peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets and their intracellular cytokine production. METHODS: The percentages of T and B lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, activated T lymphocytes, CD4+ T helper (Th), and CD8+ T cytotoxic (Tc) cells were determined by flow cytometry in 42 patients with AS compared to 52 healthy controls. In order to assess circulating Th1/Th2 and Tc1/Tc2 subsets, we used a whole-blood cytometric assay based on the intracellular interferon-gamma, interleukin 4 (IL-4), and IL-10 expression of the cells. RESULTS: In the peripheral blood, the frequencies of CD4+ T helper and CD56+ NK cells were higher in AS (54.8% and 16.2%, respectively) compared to controls (45.3% and 10.8%) (p < 0.05). The frequencies of Th0 (1.9% vs 0.8%) and Tc0 (2.1% vs 0.8%) cells were higher, while that of Tc1 cells was lower (26.6% vs 40.1%) in patients with AS versus controls (p < 0.05). The percentage of IL-10-producing Tc cells was significantly higher in AS (18.4%) versus controls (8.5%) (p < 0.05). Finally, the active phase of AS was associated with significantly lower percentage of IL-10-producing Tc cells in the peripheral blood (6.6%) compared to patients with inactive AS (23.1%). CONCLUSION: Our results provide further evidence for an altered T cell subset distribution and intracytoplasmic cytokine balance in AS.

Megjegyzések:Objectives: to investigate the early immunological effects of Pneumococcus vaccination in SLE patients and healthy controls. METHODS: First-four-week follow-up of 18 patients and 9 healthy controls by repeated measurements of anti-nuclear antibodies, anti-dsDNA, C-reactive protein, complement factor 3 (C3) and 4 (C4), total IgG, IgA and IgM. Specific antibody response, percentage of blood lymphocyte populations and whole blood chemiluminescence measurements were carried out in six patients and six controls. RESULTS: No disease flare was detected in the vaccinated patients. all side effects were mild. The concentrations of serum IgG, IgA, C3 and C4 decreased significantly, but still remained within the normal range. The other changes were statistically non-significant. The specific antibody responses to 6B and 23F Pneumococcus serotypes showed striking individual differences. CONCLUSION: There was no short-term immunological effect of Pneumococcus vaccination in the patients with SLE. The non-responders. without any sign of disease activation should possibly be given more immunogenic, new vaccines to avoid life-threatening Pneumococcus infections.

Cím:HLA-DR genotypes in familial rheumatoid arthritis : increased frequency of protective and neutral alleles in a multicase family / Szilvia Zsilák, János Gál, László Hodinka, Katalin Rajczy, Attila Balog, Sándor Sipka, Sándor Baráth, Anikó Kapitány, Erika Zilahi, Zoltán Szekanecz
Dátum:2005
Megjegyzések:We describe a unique family where each of the 5 siblings in the second generation has rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Two other members of the family have RA and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), respectively. No members of previous generations in the family had documented inflammatory arthritis. Due to the suspected genetic predisposition, HLA-DR genotypes were determined in the affected siblings and their parents, children, and grandchildren. We investigated the possible role of various HLA-DR alleles in the evolution of RA in this multicase family. METHODS: HLA-DRB1* alleles were determined by polymerase chain reaction using the sequence-specific primer-Olerup method. RESULTS: The most common alleles in the 6 persons with RA were HLA-DRB1*07 and DRB1*15, which are known to be protective and neutral in RA. No patient or family member carried any HLA-DR4 alleles. CONCLUSION: HLA-DRB1*07 and DRB1*15 alleles are thought to be protective or neutral in RA. However, the majority of RA patients in the family and nearly half of all family members carried these alleles, suggesting a role of these genotypes in susceptibility to RA. No RA patient in this family carried HLA-DR4 alleles. Thus, in our rare family with 6 RA cases, an unexpected genetic background may be involved in the increased susceptibility to inflammatory arthritis.
