- Distinct antibody profile: a clue to primary antiphospholipid syndrome evolving into systemic lupus erythematosus?(2014) FREIRE, Paula Vieira; WATANABE, Elisa; SANTOS, Nelita Rocha dos; BUENO, Cleonice; BONFA, Eloisa; CARVALHO, Jozelio Freire deWe have performed a retrospective study to determine if patients with antiphospholipid syndrome that developed systemic lupus erythematosus (APS/SLE) had distinct clinical and/or serological features. All 80 primary APS (PAPS) patients followed up at our APS unit were included in the study and divided into two groups: 14 APS/SLE and 66 PAPS. Prior or at onset of lupus manifestations, six patients were uniformly negative for lupus and Sjogren autoantibodies, and the other eight patients had persistent positive. In the first year after diagnosis of SLE, three patients remained with negative antibodies, the other seven patients maintained the same antibodies, and four patients developed other antibodies. APS/SLE group had a significant lower mean age at PAPS diagnosis (26.0 +/- 8.0 vs. 34.2 +/- 11.9 years, p = 0.03) and a longer disease duration (14.0 +/- 7.0 vs. 6.0 +/- 5.0 years, p < 0.0001). The mean time for PAPS to develop SLE was 5.2 +/- 4.3 years. The typical clinical and laboratorial findings of APS did not discriminate both groups of patients. At lupus onset, antinuclear antibodies were more frequently observed in those who evolved to SLE (100 vs. 51.5 %, p = 0.0005). Anti-double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), anti-ribosomal P, anti-Ro/SS-A, anti-La/SS-B, and anti-U1RNP antibodies were exclusively found in the APS/SLE patients, whereas anti-Smith (Sm) antibodies were not detected in both groups. The detection of a distinct subgroup of lupus-associated autoantibody in PAPS patients seems to be a hint to overt SLE disease, particularly in those patients with young age at diagnosis.
conferenceObject Metabolic Syndrome, Adipocytokines and Inflammation in Sjogren's Syndrome.(2014) AUGUSTO, Kristopherson Lustosa; BONFA, Eloisa; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; BUENO, Cleonice; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; PASOTO, Sandra G.- Pandemic influenza immunization in primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS): a trigger to thrombosis and autoantibody production?(2014) MEDEIROS, D. Martins de; SILVA, C. A.; BUENO, C.; RIBEIRO, A. C. Medeiros; VIANA, V. dos Santos T.; CARVALHO, J. Freire; BONFA, E.Objective The objective of this report is to conduct short- and long-term evaluation of a large panel of antiphospholipid (aPL) autoantibodies following pandemic influenza A/H1N1 non-adjuvant vaccine in primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) patients and healthy controls. Methods Forty-five PAPS and 33 healthy controls were immunized with H1N1 vaccine. They were prospectively assessed at pre-vaccination, and three weeks and six months after vaccination. aPL autoantibodies were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and included IgG/IgM: anticardiolipin (aCL), anti-beta2glycoprotein I (anti-2GPI); anti-annexin V, anti-phosphatidyl serine and anti-prothrombin antibodies. Anti-Sm was determined by ELISA and anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) by indirect immunofluorescence. Arterial and venous thrombosis were also clinically assessed. Results Pre-vaccination frequency of at least one aPL antibody was significantly higher in PAPS patients versus controls (58% vs. 24%, p=0.0052). The overall frequencies of aPL antibody at pre-vaccination, and three weeks and six months after immunization remained unchanged in patients (p=0.89) and controls (p=0.83). The frequency of each antibody specificity for patients and controls remained stable in the three evaluated periods (p>0.05). At three weeks, two PAPS patients developed a new but transient aPL antibody (aCL IgG and IgM), whereas at six months new aPL antibodies were observed in six PAPS patients and none had high titer. Anti-Sm and anti-dsDNA autoantibodies were uniformly negative and no new arterial or venous thrombosis were observed throughout the study. Conclusions This is the first study to demonstrate that pandemic influenza vaccine in PAPS patients does not trigger short- and long-term thrombosis or a significant production of aPL-related antibodies (ClinicalTrials.gov, #NCT01151644).
- IV Consenso Brasileiro para pesquisa de autoanticorpos em celulas HEp-2(2014) FRANCESCANTONIO, Paulo Luiz Carvalho; CRUVINEL, Wilson de Melo; DELLAVANCE, Alessandra; ANDRADE, Luis Eduardo Coelho; TALIBERTI, Ben Hur; VON MUHLEN, Carlos Alberto; BICHARA, Carlos David Araujo; BUENO, Cleonice; MANGUEIRA, Cristovao Luis Pitangueira; CARVALHO, Darlene Goncalves; BONFA, Eloisa S.D. de O.; BRITO, Fabiano de Almeida; ARAUJO, Flavia Ikeda e; REGO, Jozelia; PEREIRA, Kaline Medeiros Costa; ANJOS, Lisiane Maria Enriconi dos; BISSOLI, Maria de Fatima; SANTIAGO, Mittermayer Barreto; MALUF, Natalya Zaidan; ALVARENGA, Rossana Rassi; NEVES, Suzane Pretti Figueiredo; VALIM, Valeria; SANTOS, Wilton Silva dosObjective: The Fourth Brazilian Consensus for Autoantibodies Screening in HEp-2 Cells (ANA) was held in Vitória, Espírito Santo, and aimed to discuss strategies and recommendations about the technique, standardization, interpretation and quality control of the indirect immunofluorescence reaction on HEp-2 cells. Methods: Twenty three ANA experts from university centers and private laboratories in different areas from Brazil discussed and agreed upon recommendations for the fourth edition of the Brazilian Consensus for Autoantibodies Screening in HEp-2 Cells. Results and conclusion: The 4th ANA Consensus included three novel patterns into the existing algorithm (cytoplasmic Rods and Rings, nuclear Quasi-homogeneous, and CENP-F). Emphasis was given to the need of attention in describing the peculiar mixed pattern elicited by anti-DNA topoisomerase I (Scl-70) autoantibodies, comprising nuclear fine specked, nucleolar homogeneous pattern, NOR staining in metaphase plates, and cytoplasmic fine speckled patterns. The group also emphasized the need for continuous quality control in indirect immunofluorescence assays, the establishment of screening dilutions, as well as conjugate titration. An alert was made regarding the heterogeneity of commercial kits in defining patterns and the use of solid phase methodologies to determine the presence of autoantibodies.
