Abstract

Enthesitis Related Arthritis Category of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA-ERA) is the most common category of JIA seen in Asian Indians. Transcriptome analysis is a useful tool to analyse pathways involved in disease pathogenesis. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and SFMC analysis showed involvement of innate immune cells in JIA-ERA. However PBMC/SFMC have variable number of different cells and that can affect interpretation. No data is available on cell type specific transcriptome analysis of blood and synovial fluid in children with JIA-ERA.

Highlights

  • Enthesitis Related Arthritis Category of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA-ERA) is the most common category of JIA seen in Asian Indians

  • Unsupervised hierarchical clustering revealed that cell subsets could be distinguished based on their gene expression profile

  • No significant differences were observed between Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of patients and healthy controls
