OBJECTIVES: To investigate lectin pathway proteins (LPPs) as biomarkers for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in a cross-sectional cohort with a suspicion of axSpA, comprising newly diagnosed axSpA and chronic low back pain (cLBP) individuals.
METHODS: Serum samples from 515 participants within the OptiRef cohort, including 151 axSpA patients and 364 cLBP patients, were measured using immunoassays for LPPs (mannan-binding lectin (MBL), collectin liver-1 (CL-L1), M-ficolin, H-ficolin and L-ficolin, MBL-associated serine proteases (MASP)-1, -2 and -3, MBL-associated proteins (MAp19 and MAp44) and the complement activation product C3dg).
RESULTS: Serum levels of L-ficolin, MASP-2 and C3dg were elevated in axSpA patients, whereas levels of MASP-3 and CL-L1 were decreased, and this remained significant for C3dg and MASP-3 after adjustment for C reactive protein (CRP). A univariate regression analysis showed serum levels of CL-L1, MASP-2, MASP-3 and C3dg to predict the diagnosis of axSpA, and MASP-3 and C3dg remained significant in a multivariate logistic regression analysis. Assessment of the diagnostic potential showed that a combination of human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) and measurements of L-ficolin, MASP-3 and C3dg increased the diagnostic specificity for axSpA, however, with a concomitant loss of sensitivity.
CONCLUSIONS: Serum levels of complement activation, that is, C3dg, and MASP-3 differed significantly between axSpA and cLBP patients after adjustment for CRP. Although combining HLA-B27 with measurements of L-ficolin, MASP-3 and C3dg increased the diagnostic specificity for axSpA, this seems unjustified due to the concomitant loss of sensitivity. However, both C3dg and MASP-3 were associated with axSpA diagnosis in multivariate logistic regression, suggesting an involvement of complement in the inflammatory processes and possibly pathogenesis in axSpA.
