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.

Autoantikörper und die autoreaktive Immunantwort: ACPA sind mehr als nur ACPA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The immune response against posttranslationally modified (PTM) antigens, in particular the generation of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA), is a very specific hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis. The factors that initiate this immune response and

One‐Pot Synthesis of Aqueous PEDOT‐Based Conductive Inks via Sequential RAFT/Oxidative Polymerization

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We developed a fast, aqueous one‐pot synthesis for PEDOT:PSTFSI, combining sequential reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer (RAFT) and oxidative polymerization. This method eliminates toxic solvents and purification steps, achieving full monomer conversion in under 3 h.

Influence of Oral Microbiota on the Presence of IgA Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies in Gingival Crevicular Fluid

open access: yesFrontiers in Oral Health, 2022
IntroductionThe relation between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis (PD) has been investigated ever since the discovery of the citrullinating enzyme peptidyl arginine deaminase presents in the oral bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis.

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

Autoantibodies to citrullinated proteins: ACPA

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2005
Anti-perinuclear factor and anti-keratin antibodies have long been known to be specifically associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They were first demonstrated to target various forms of (pro)filaggrin, a protein of stratified epithelia. Then, they were found to belong to a single family of autoantibodies targeting proteins that bear peptidic ...

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 ...

Analysis of ACPA positivity and ACPA fine specificities in a large Swedish twin cohort (TwinGene) [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2012
Backgroundand objectives Genetic factors play a significant role in the variance of susceptibility for anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA)-positive RA (Woude et al 2009). The authors wanted to study ACPA positivity as an entity and aimed to investigate the influence of genetic and environmental factors for ACPA positivity using a twin study ...

Multicentre study to improve clinical interpretation of rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies test results

open access: yesRMD Open, 2022
Background Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPA) are important biomarkers for diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, there is poor harmonisation of RF and ACPA assays.

A genome-wide association study suggests contrasting associations in ACPA-positive versus ACPA-negative rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be divided into two major subsets based on the presence or absence of antibodies to citrullinated peptide antigens (ACPA).
