Use and significance of anti-CCP autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
One of the most common autoimmune diseases is rheumatoid arthritis (RA), affecting 0.5–1% of the population. This systemic disease is marked by chronic inflammation of synovial joints, which leads to destruction of cartilage and bone and eventually to disability of the patient [1]. Though not directly lifethreatening, RA severely affects the quality of

Anti CCP antibodies in tuberculosis
Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies have been considered very specific for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Some studies have shown that these antibodies can be positive in infectious diseases like TB, HIV, etc.Fifty patients of tuberculosis both pulmonary and extra-pulmonary were enrolled in the study from inpatient and outpatient ...

Assessment of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide in psoriatic arthritis
Background Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP) are highly specific diagnostic and prognostic markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They have been also found in psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with controversies as regards clinical and radiological ...
