Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is associated with type I interferons (IFNs) and can be induced by IFNalpha treatment. This study looked for evidence of autoimmunity in a pedigree consisting of 4 family members with a balanced translocation 9;21 and 2 members with an unbalanced translocation resulting in trisomy of the short (p) arm and part of the long (q) arm of chromosome 9. These latter 2 subjects had 3 copies of the IFN gene cluster. Subjects were evaluated clinically and serologically for autoimmune disease. Expression levels of IFNalpha4, IFNbeta, the type I IFN-inducible gene Mx1, the type I IFN receptor, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Circulating plasmacytoid dendritic cells, the main IFN-producing cells, were quantified by flow cytometry. Both subjects with trisomy of chromosome 9p had a lupus-like syndrome with joint manifestations and antinuclear antibodies: one had anti-RNP and antiphospholipid autoantibodies, and the other had anti-Ro 60. The 3 family members with a balanced translocation 9;21 had no clinical or serologic evidence of autoimmunity, similar to that in relatives who were unaffected by the chromosomal translocation. In the 2 su...Continue Reading

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
