The prevalence of ACPA is lower in rheumatoid arthritis patients with an older age of onset but the composition of the ACPA response appears identical

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) consists of two syndromes, one autoantibody-positive and one autoantibody-negative. Existing data on the relation between age of onset and prevalence of autoantibodies were conflicting.

Driving chronicity in rheumatoid arthritis: perpetuating role of myeloid cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Acute inflammation is a complex and tightly regulated homeostatic process that includes leukocyte migration from the vasculature into tissues to eliminate the pathogen/injury, followed by a pro-resolving response promoting tissue repair.

Inflammation functions as a key mediator in the link between ACPA and erosion development: an association study in Clinically Suspect Arthralgia

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) are associated with more severe joint erosions in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the underlying mechanism is unclear.

Serum proteomic networks associate with pre-clinical rheumatoid arthritis autoantibodies and longitudinal outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
ObjectivesThe development of autoantibody directed towards citrullinated proteins (ACPA) are predictive of RA in at-risk individuals. The biological events that underpin loss of immune tolerance and progression into inflammatory arthritis are not known ...

Analysis of TNFAIP3, IRAK1, and TLR4 Gene Polymorphisms in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesImmun Inflamm Dis
ABSTRACT Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) arises from a complex interplay of polygenic susceptibility, epigenetic factors, and environmental modifiers. This study investigated the correlation between RA and Tumor necrosis factor α‐induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3), Interleukin‐1 receptor‐associated kinase 1 (IRAK1), and Toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4) gene ...

Rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory joint disease, which can cause cartilage and bone damage as well as disability. Early diagnosis is key to optimal therapeutic success, particularly in patients with well-characterised risk factors for poor ...

Clinical Outcomes of Patients Within the Rheumatoid Arthritis Care Pathway Cohort at a Tertiary Care Integrated Delivery Network: A Comparison to Usual Care

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to compare clinical outcomes between patients in the Allegheny Health Network rheumatoid arthritis (RA) care pathway and patients receiving usual care. Methods The care pathway initiative implements guideline‐based best practice alongside multidisciplinary team‐based care.

Burning controversies in NETs and autoimmunity: The mysteries of cell death and autoimmune disease

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2018
The causes and mechanisms of autoimmune disease pose continuing challenges to the scientific community. Recent clues implicate a peculiar feature of neutrophils, their ability to release nuclear chromatin in the form of neutrophil extracellular traps ...

Validation of a Genetic Risk Score Combined With Clinical Variables for Predicting Pulmonary Fibrosis in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a severe extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aimed to externally validate a genetic risk score (GRS) and a combined risk score (CRS) for predicting the risk of RA‐associated PF in an independent cohort of patients with early RA.

In Antisynthetase Syndrome, ACPA Are Associated With Severe and Erosive Arthritis: An Overlapping Rheumatoid Arthritis and Antisynthetase Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceAbstract: Anticitrullinated peptide/protein antibodies (ACPA), which are highly specific for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), may be found in some patients with other systemic autoimmune diseases.
