Long-term follow-up of patients with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody-positive connective tissue disease: a retrospective observational study including information on the HLA-DRB1 allele and citrullination dependency

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2020
Background The anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody is a diagnostic biomarker of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, some non-RA connective tissue disease (CTD) patients also test positive for the anti-CCP antibody and, thus, may ultimately ...

Association of citrullination with the progression of aortic stenosis

Scientific Reports, 2023
Despite its clinical importance, biomarkers of disease activity in aortic stenosis (AS) are lacking. We investigated the association between anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies and AS.

The Relationship between Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Positivity and Clinical/Radiological Findings in Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis

Sakarya Tıp Dergisi, 2022
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease in the spondyloarthropathy group with the history of psoriasis. Although some PsA findings are similar to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), rheumatoid factor negativity, some radiological and clinical ...

Anti-CCP Antibodies Are Not Associated with Familial Mediterranean Fever in Childhood [PDF]

International Journal of Rheumatology, 2013
Objective. Anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) testing is useful in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with high specificity. Arthritis is a very common clinical manifestation in children with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

Abatacept reduces disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis independently of modulating anti-citrullinated peptide antibody production

Immunological Medicine, 2020
Abatacept may exert its clinical effect on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by suppressing anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody production. This study was undertaken to test this hypothesis by examining the changes of disease activity of RA and anti-

Immunosensing the rheumatoid arthritis biomarker through bifunctional aldehyde-amine linkers on an iron oxide nanoparticle seeded voltammetry sensor

Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, 2022
An immunosensor was developed on an interdigitated electrode (IDE) by voltammetry sensing for the early identification of the autoimmune disease ‘rheumatoid arthritis (RA)’ by detecting the biomarker anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (anti-CCP).

The association of anti-CCP antibodies with disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

Rheumatology International, 2008
Antibodies to citrullinated proteins have been described in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and these appear to be the most specific markers of the disease. Our objective was to determine the frequency of antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptides (CCPs) in patients with RA and the association of anti-CCP antibodies with disease activity ...

A Study of Correlation of Disease Severity with Antibody Titers in Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019
Introduction: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is one of the most frequent autoimmune diseases in the world which affects about 1% of people. Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptides (Anti-CCP) is shown to be more specific than rheumatoid factor in the diagnosis of ...

Anti CCP antibodies in tuberculosis

Indian Journal of Rheumatology, 2014
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 ...

Relation Between Anti-CCP Antibodies and Sharp Score in Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]

Materia Socio Medica, 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 ...
