‘Medusa-head ataxia’: the expanding spectrum of Purkinje cell antibodies in autoimmune cerebellar ataxia. Part 1: Anti-mGluR1, anti-Homer-3, anti-Sj/ITPR1 and anti-CARP VIII [PDF]
Serological testing for anti-neural autoantibodies is important in patients presenting with idiopathic cerebellar ataxia, since these autoantibodies may indicate cancer, determine treatment and predict prognosis.

AB0207 CLINICAL IMPACT OF ANTI-CARP ANTIBODIES IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS [PDF]
Background: Antibodies directed against carbamylated proteins (anti-CarP) have been recently introduced for the first time as a new biomarker in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (1). Their presence is predictive for the development of RA (2). Anti-CarP antibodies are associated with the development of more severe forms of the disease in overall and anti ...

Objectives To explore the role of newly emerging autoantibodies (AAbs) - peptidyl-arginine deiminase 4 (aPAD4), carbamylated proteins (aCarP), and anti-RA33 (aRA33) - alongside the traditionally assessed rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated ...

Assessment of anti-CarP antibodies, disease activity and quality of life in rheumatoid arthritis patients on conventional and biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. [PDF]
<b>Objective: </b>Good biomarkers are important to guide decisions in the clinical management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA patients harbor antibodies directed against carbamylated proteins which may predict joint damage. This study investigated whether antibodies against carbamylated proteins (anti-CarP) may serve as surrogate ...

Research progress on anti-carbamylated protein antibodies in connective tissue disease [PDF]
Connective tissue disease (CTD) is a group of chronic autoimmune diseases characterized by pathological changes in systemic organs and multisystems. The diagnosis of CTD mainly depends on clinical manifestations and specific autoantibodies.

Anti-Carbamylated Protein Antibodies as a Reproducible Independent Type of Rheumatoid Arthritis Autoantibodies. [PDF]
A large fraction of the patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) develop specific autoantibodies, which until recently were only of two types, rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA).

Predictive value of anti-CarP and anti-PAD3 antibodies alone or in combination with RF and ACPA for the severity of rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to analyse the predictive value of anti-carbamylated protein (anti-CarP) and anti-peptidyl-arginine deiminase type-3 (anti-PAD3) antibodies, alone or in combination with RF and ACPA, to identify patients at high risk of developing severe RA outcomes.
