  1. Update on the pathophysiology of ankylosingspondylitis Thao PHAM Marseille France

  2. AS and HLA-B27 association • 1973 • Schlosstein (US) • AS was associated with HLA-B27 : 88% (vs 8% controls) • DA Brewerton (GB) • AS was associated with HLA-B27 : 96% (vs 4% controls) Molecular mechanisms underlying the association of HLA-B27 with AS are still unclear

  3. AS and HLA-B27 association • Association between HLA B27 and SA • 90% AS express HLA B27 • 5% HLA B27+ develop AS • Family studies  Recurrence risk • Monogenic disease • Polygenic disease • Twin studies  Concordance rates • dizygotic 23% vs monozygotic 63% • AS is not a monogenic disease • Susceptibility genes located outside the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region Carter KW et al.

  32. Proposed mechanism linking activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) as a consequence of HLA–B27 misfolding to activation of the interleukin-23 (IL-23)/IL-17 axis DeLay M et al. Arthritis Rheum 2009,;60: 2633–2643.

  33. Conclusion • Hypotheses regarding the role for HLA-B27 • HLA-B27 may modulate the inflammatory response to infectious agents • via antigen recognition of arthritogenic peptides and/or molecular mimicry involving the adaptive and innate immune systems (ARTS1) • via misfolding  stress response  unfolded protein response induce inflammatory factors such as IL-23
