Identification of potential autoantigens in anti-CCP-positive and anti-CCP-negative rheumatoid arthritis using citrulline-specific protein arrays. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2021 AbstractThe presence or absence of autoantibodies against citrullinated proteins (ACPAs) distinguishes two main groups of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with different etiologies, prognoses, disease severities, and, presumably, disease pathogenesis.

Relation Between Anti-CCP Antibodies and Sharp Score in Rheumatoid Arthritis. [PDF]
Mater Sociomed, 2020 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory, systemic rheumatic disease, very complex, with many different forms, progressive course, with pronounced changes in the joints, still unknown etiology and poorly understood pathology. Assessing of structural change can be done with proposed scores which observe changes on wrist and wrist joints, as ...

Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA): diagnostic performance of automated anti-CCP-2 and anti-CCP-3 antibodies assays. [PDF]
Clin Rheumatol, 2017 This study compares the diagnostic performance of a second generation anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (CCP2) with a third generation anti-CCP antibodies assay (CCP3), as well as the combination of both tests. Serum samples of 127 patients were analyzed.

Anti‐CCP: History and its Usefulness [PDF]
Journal of Immunology Research, 2005 Antibodies directed to cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti‐CCP) are highly specific for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and can easily be detected in sera by using commercially available immunoassays. The second version of the anti‐CCP test (anti‐CCP2) demonstrated high specificity (89‐98%) and good sensitivity (41‐88%)
