Immunopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common inflammatory arthropathy. The majority of evidence, derived from genetics, tissue analyses, models, and clinical studies, points to an immune-mediated etiology associated with stromal tissue dysregulation that

The isotype and IgG subclass distribution of anti-carbamylated protein antibodies in rheumatoid arthritis patients

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Anti-carbamylated protein (anti-CarP) antibodies have recently been reported to occur in around 45% of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and to have prognostic and diagnostic properties.

The importance of early arthritis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disorder that manifests predominantly in the synovial joint, where it causes a chronic inflammatory process, leading to early osteoarticular destructions.

Autoantibodies as Diagnostic Markers and Mediator of Joint Inflammation in Arthritis

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic, polygenic, and multifactorial syndrome characterized by erosive polyarthritis, damage to joint architecture, and presence of autoantibodies against several self‐structures in the serum and synovial fluid. These autoantibodies (anticitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPAs), rheumatoid factors (RF), anticollagen

An Overview of the Intrinsic Role of Citrullination in Autoimmune Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
A protein undergoes many types of posttranslation modification. Citrullination is one of these modifications, where an arginine amino acid is converted to a citrulline amino acid. This process depends on catalytic enzymes such as peptidylarginine deiminase enzymes (PADs).

Role of Anti–Carbamylated Protein Antibodies Compared to Anti–Citrullinated Protein Antibodies in Indigenous North Americans With Rheumatoid Arthritis, Their First‐Degree Relatives, and Healthy Controls

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 68, Issue 9, Page 2090-2098, September 2016., 2016
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by the presence of autoantibodies, including seropositivity for rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti–citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs). In addition, antibodies to carbamylated proteins (anti‐CarP) are present in patients with RA and are associated with joint damage.

Laboratory diagnostics and pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis — the past and the present [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common systemic connective tissue diseases of autoimmune origin and is characterised by chronic inflammation of joints. The aetiology of this disease has not been fully understood yet.

Improved classification of rheumatoid arthritis with a score including anti‑acetylated ornithine antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) autoantibodies contributes to the current rheumatoid arthritis (RA) classification criteria.
