Transcriptional data of inflamatory arthritis B cells

With a focus on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we sought new insight into genetic mechanisms of adaptive immune dysregulation to help prioritise molecular pathways for targeting in this and related immune pathologies. Whole genome methylation and transcriptional data from isolated CD4+ T cells and B cells of >100 genotyped and phenotyped inflammatory arthritis patients, all of whom were naïve to immunomodulatory treatments, were obtained. Analysis integrated these comprehensive data with GWAS findings across IMDs and other publically available resources.
