    Journal Article

    This study aimed to: 1) analyze the inflammatory profile of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients, identifying clinical phenotypes associated with cardiovascular (CV) risk; 2) evaluate biologic and targeted-synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (b-DMARDs and ts-DMARDs’: TNFi, IL6Ri, JAKinibs) effects; and 3) characterize molecular mechanisms in immune-cell activation and endothelial dysfunction. A total of 387 RA patients and 45 healthy donors were recruited, forming three cohorts: i) 208 RA patients with established disease but without previous CV events; ii) RA-CVD: 96 RA patients with CV events, and iii) 83 RA patients treated with b-DMARDs/ts-DMARDs for 6 months. Serum inflammatory profiles (cytokines/chemokines/growth factors) and NETosis/oxidative stress-linked biomolecules were evaluated. Mechanistic in vitro studies were performed on monocytes, neutrophils and endothelial cells (EC). In the first RA-cohort, unsupervised clustering unveiled three distinct groups: cluster 3 (C3) displayed the highest inflammatory profile, significant CV-risk score, and greater atheroma plaques prevalence. In contrast, cluster 1 (C1) exhibited the lowest inflammatory profile and CV risk score, while cluster 2 (C2) displayed an intermediate phenotype. Notably, 2nd cohort RA-CVD patients mirrored C3's inflammation. Treatment with b-DMARDs or ts-DMARDs effectively reduced disease-activity scores (DAS28) and restored normal biomolecules levels, controlling CV risk. In vitro, serum from C3-RA or RA-CVD patients increased neutrophils activity and CV-related protein levels in cultured monocytes and EC, which were partially prevented by pre-incubation with TNFi, IL6Ri, and JAKinibs. Overall, analyzing circulating molecular profiles in RA patients holds potential for personalized clinical management, addressing CV risk and assisting healthcare professionals in tailoring treatment, ultimately improving outcomes. Display omitted •Unsupervised clustering of RA profiles revealed 3 groups with diverse inflammatory, oxidative, and netotic profiles.•RA patients without CV events but highest CV-risk showed inflammatory profiles akin to those with prior CV events.•TNFi, IL6Ri, and JAKi treatment for six months restores normal inflammatory biomolecule levels, cutting-RA-related CV-risk.•High CV risk RA serum activates neutrophils, modulates monocytes, and disrupts endothelial cells, reversed by b/ts-DMARDS.•Analyzing RA patients' molecular profiles enhances personalized management, addressing their cardiovascular risk.
