Objectives. ACPA is a highly specific marker for RA. It was recently reported that ACPA can be used to classify RA into two disease subsets, ACPA-positive and ACPA-negative RA. ACPA-positive RA was found to be associated with the HLA-DR shared epitope (SE), but ACPA negative was not. However, the suspicion remained that this result was caused by the ACPA-negative RA subset containing patients with non-RA diseases. We examined whether this is the case even when possible non-RA ACPA-negative RA patients were excluded by selecting only patients with bone erosion. Methods. We genotyped HLA-DRB1 alleles for 574 ACPA-positive RA, 185 ACPA-negative RA (including 97 erosive RA) and 1508 healthy donors. We also tested whether HLA-DR SE is associated with RF-negative or ANA-negative RA. Results. ACPA-negative RA with apparent bone erosion was not associated with SE, supporting the idea that ACPA-negative RA is genetically distinct from ACPA-positive RA. We also tested whether these subsets are based on autoantibody-producing activity. In accordance with the ACPA-negative RA subset, the RF-negative RA subset showed a clearly distinct pattern of association with SE from the RF-positive RA. In contrast, ANA-negative as well as ANA-positive RA was similarly associated with SE, suggesting that the subsets distinguished by ACPA are not based simply on differences in autoantibody production. Conclusions. ACPA-negative erosive RA is genetically distinct from ACPA-positive RA.
