They are overexpressed in a variety of autoimmune diseases and reportedly exist in vivo not only as homotrimers but also as BLyS APRIL heterotrimers. Methods A proprietary N-terminal trimerization domain was used to produce recombinant BLyS APRIL heterotrimers. Heterotrimer biologic activity was compared with that of BLyS and APRIL in a 4-hour signaling assay by using transmembrane activator and CAML interactor TACI -transfected Jurkat cells and in a 4-day primary human B-cell proliferation assay. A bead-based immunoassay was developed to quantify native heterotrimers in human sera from healthy donors n 89 and patients with systemic lupus erythematosus SLE n 89 or rheumatoid arthritis RA n 30 . Heterotrimer levels were compared with BLyS and APRIL homotrimer levels in a subset of these samples. Results The recombinant heterotrimers consisted mostly of one BLyS and two APRIL molecules. Heterotrimer signaling did not show any significant difference compared with APRIL in the TACI-Jurkat assay. Heterotrimers were less-potent inducers of B-cell proliferation than were homotrimeric BLyS or APRIL EC50 nMol L BLyS APRIL heterotrimers . The soluble receptor fusion proteins .
