Purpose

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with HLA-DRB1 genes encoding a five amino acid basic motive, the shared epitope SE). Each HLA-DRB1 genotype defines a genotype specific risk of developing RA.

RA is preceded by the emergence of anti citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs). Citrullin is a neutral version of arginin, a basic amino acid, formed after post translational modification by Peptidyl Arginyl Deiminases (PADs).

HLA-DRB1 genes associated with RA are also associated with ACPAs.

Two models might explain this association.

Here we tested both models for prediction of HLA-DRB1 genotypic risks of developing RA.

Methods

We calculated the likelihoods for the 2 HLA-DR molecules encoded by 12 common HLA-DRB1 genotypes to bind at least one randomly chosen peptide from PAD4 or fibrinogen(native or citrullinatd) and compared them with the 12 respective HLA-DRB1genotypic risks of developing RA.

Results

HLA-DRB1 Genotypic risks of developing RA correlate with likelihoods of binding PAD4 peptides, not citrullinated Fibrinogen peptides. Thus, the molecular basis for the association of HLA-DR and ACPA positive RA is most likely the capability for RA associated HLA-DR molecules to bind peptides(s) from PAD4.

RA 相关的 HLA-DR 分子是否结合瓜氨酸肽或 PAD4 的肽,以帮助开发针对瓜氨酸蛋白的 RA 特异性抗体?

目的

类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 与编码五个氨基酸基本动机的 HLA-DRB1 基因相关,即共享表位 SE)。每个 HLA-DRB1 基因型定义了发展 RA 的基因型特定风险。

RA 之前出现了抗瓜氨酸蛋白抗体 (ACPA)。瓜氨酸是精氨酸的中性版本,精氨酸是一种碱性氨基酸,由肽基精氨酸脱亚胺酶 (PAD) 翻译后修饰后形成。

与 RA 相关的 HLA-DRB1 基因也与 ACPA 相关。

两种模型可以解释这种关联。

在这里,我们测试了两种模型,用于预测发生 RA 的 HLA-DRB1 基因型风险。

方法

我们计算了由 12 个常见 HLA-DRB1 基因型编码的 2 个 HLA-DR 分子结合至少一种从 PAD4 或纤维蛋白原(天然或瓜氨酸)中随机选择的肽的可能性,并将它们与 12 个各自的 HLA-DRB1 发展为 RA 的基因型风险进行比较.

结果

HLA-DRB1 发生 RA 的基因型风险与结合 PAD4 肽的可能性相关,而不是瓜氨酸化纤维蛋白原肽。因此,HLA-DR 和 ACPA 阳性 RA 关联的分子基础很可能是 RA 相关的 HLA-DR 分子结合来自 PAD4 的肽的能力。
