We studied the effects of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) autoantibodies that target malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde protein adducts (anti-MAA) on inflammation and macrophage functions. We detected a profound reprogramming of gene expressions and the production of chemokines, such as CCL22 and CCL24, in anti-MAA exposed macrophages. Moreover, anti-MAA pretreatment promoted a more inflammatory cytokine profile upon TLR activation.

Objective: The objective of this study is to determine the associations of protein-specific anti-malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde (MAA) antibodies with prevalent and incident rheumatoid arthritis-interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD).

Methods: Within a multicenter, prospective cohort of US veterans with RA, RA-ILD was validated by medical record review of clinical diagnoses, chest imaging, and pathology. Serum antibodies to MAA-albumin, MAA-collagen, MAA-fibrinogen, and MAA-vimentin (IgA, IgM, and IgG) were measured by a standardized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Background: Malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde (MAA) adducts lead to generation of anti-MAA autoantibodies and have been independently identified in inflamed periodontal and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) tissues. This study evaluates serum samples from RA cases and osteoarthritis (OA) controls to quantify associations between periodontal clinical measures, alveolar bone loss (ABL), and anti-Porphyromonas gingivalis, anti-Prevotella intermedia, and anti-Fusobacterium nucleatum antibody concentrations with anti-MAA antibody concentrations.

Methods: Participants (n = 284 RA cases, n = 330 OA controls) underwent periodontal clinical assessments and ABL measurements.

Objective: In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) around two-thirds of patients are autoantibody positive for rheumatoid factor, anti-citrullinated protein antibodies and/or anti-carbamylated protein antibodies. The remaining seronegative subgroup of patients is clinically heterogeneous and thus far, biomarkers predicting the disease course are lacking. Therefore, we analysed the value of other autoantibodies in RA directed against malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde adducts (MAA) and advanced glycation end-products (AGE).

Autoantibodies to malondialdehyde (MDA) proteins constitute a subset of anti-modified protein autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which is distinct from citrulline reactivity. Serum anti-MDA IgG levels are commonly elevated in RA and correlate with disease activity, CRP, IL6, and TNF-α. MDA is an oxidation-associated reactive aldehyde that together with acetaldehyde mediates formation of various immunogenic amino acid adducts including linear MDA-lysine, fluorescent malondialdehyde acetaldehyde (MAA)-lysine, and intramolecular cross-linking.
