Sialic acid–binding Ig‐like lectin 1 expression in inflammatory and resident monocytes is a potential biomarker for monitoring disease activity and success of therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract: Objective. Type I interferon (IFN) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is therefore considered a potential therapeutic target. This study was undertaken to establish a feasible biomarker for IFN effects with respect to disease activity and effectiveness of IFN-suppressive therapy in SLE patients.Methods. Transcriptomes of purified monocytes from 9 SLE patients and 7 healthy controls were analyzed by Affymetrix GeneChip technology. Levels of sialic acid-binding Ig-… Show more

“…However, none of these genes were significantly downregulated in vivo in whole blood from RSV‐infected infants (data not shown). Upregulation of Siglec‐1 on monocytes has been observed in patients with atherosclerosis, systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematous and human immunodeficiency virus infections 19, 20, 21, 22, 23. The common denominator in these studies appears to be type I interferons (IFNs).…”

“…They have also been found in transplant tissues (35). One potential explanation for the presence of SnL + Tregs in fresh splenocytes is that this subset could + -resident and inflammatory monocytes were found in PBMCs of patients with SLE and correlated to disease severity and other established biomarkers of the disease (11). Despite such a close association between Sn and disease activity, it remains unclear whether Sn might actively be involved in the pathogenesis of SLE.…”

“…Under inflammatory conditions, Sn can be strongly upregulated on macrophages, as observed in autoimmune diseases such as experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) (9) and human rheumatoid arthritis (6). Sn is normally undetectable *Division of Cell Signalling and Immunology, College of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dundee DD1 5EH, United Kingdom; on circulating monocytes, but is induced on these cells in patients with HIV infection (10), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (11), and systemic sclerosis (12) in a type I IFN-dependent manner.…”

“…Generation of complementary RNA, sample hybridization (using Affymetrix HG U133 plus 2.0 arrays), and scanning with a GeneChip Scanner 3000 (Affymetrix) were performed as described previously. 31 Data from 3 pairs of conditions were analyzed using the BioRetis database (supplemental Experimental Procedures). The chip data discussed in this publication have been deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus database and are accessible through accession number GSE62693.…”
