Antibodies against citrullinated proteins of IgA isotype are associated with progression to rheumatoid arthritis in individuals at-risk

open access: yesRMD Open, 2023
Objective Events triggering disease outbreak in individuals at-risk for rheumatoid arthritis (RA at-risk) remain unclear, and the role of the various anticitrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) isotypes in this process is still to be established.

The ACPA recognition profile and subgrouping of ACPA-positive RA patients

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2012
Anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) are the most predictive factor for the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Epitope spreading towards more citrullinated epitopes occurs before the onset of RA. Here, the authors investigated whether specific epitope recognition allows the identification of specific RA subgroups and whether it is ...

Early intensive treatment normalises excess mortality in ACPA-negative RA but not in ACPA-positive RA [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2020
With great interest, we read the recently published report by Poppelaars et al in which no excess mortality was observed in 155 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from the COmbinatie therapie Bij Rheumatoide Artritis (COBRA)-trial, who received early intensive treatment, compared with the general population (Standardised mortality rate (SMR) 0.80 (

AB0012 In the elderly acpa-negative ra is more prevalent than acpa-positive ra while the composition of the acpa-response appears identical [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2017
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) consists of two syndromes, one autoantibody-positive and one autoantibody-negative. This multi-cohort study assessed the age of onset in relation to the presence of autoantibodies. The association with characteristics of the anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA)-response was also explored.

MRI-detected osteitis is not associated with the presence or level of ACPA alone, but with the combined presence of ACPA and RF [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2016
In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) bone marrow edema (BME, osteitis) and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) are associated with radiographic progression. ACPA have been associated with BME, but it is unknown if this association is confined to ACPA and BME.

CCR6+ Th cell populations distinguish ACPA positive from ACPA negative rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2015
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be separated into two major subpopulations based on the absence or presence of serum anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs). The more severe disease course in ACPA(+) RA and differences in treatment outcome between these subpopulations suggest that ACPA(+) and ACPA(-) RA are different disease subsets ...

Association between inflammatory cytokines and immune-checkpoint molecule in rheumatoid arthritis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundAnti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA) and inflammatory cytokines play important roles in the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). T cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing-3 (TIM-3) is an immune-checkpoint molecule involved ...

OP0314 B cell phenotype and function in the synovium of acpa+ and acpa- rheumatoid arthritispatients [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2018
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of unknown and complex etiology with severe detrimental effects for the patient’s quality of life. While rheumatoid factors (RF) and anti-citrulinated protein antibodies (ACPA) have been used extensively for the diagnosis of RA, no clear mechanism of action towards ...

Interaction of CB1 receptor agonist arachidonylcyclopropylamide with behavioural sensitisation to morphine in mice

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2014
Activities of the endocannabinoid system are believed to be substantially involved in psychostimulant and opioid addiction. Nevertheless, interactions between cannabinoid and opioid systems are not yet fully understood. Thus, the aim of the present study
