The Role of Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody in Periodontal Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2010
The anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies (anti-CCP) are produced locally in the inflamed synovium of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, suggesting that citrullinated proteins are located in the inflamed synovium. In scientific literature were find periodontal bacterial DNA in serum and synovial fluid of RA with PD patients.

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies and IL-23p19 in psoriatic arthritis

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Science, 2009
Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) are reported to be found in 5-13% of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). However, whether anti-CCP-positive PsA patients and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have a similar pathophysiological background still remains uncertain.To determine the prevalence of anti-CCP antibodies in patients ...

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in scleroderma patients

Clinical Rheumatology, 2012
Anti-CCP (cyclic citrullinated peptide) is considered the most useful laboratory tool in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Some authors have also found this autoantibody in patients with scleroderma (SSc). The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of anti-CCP antibodies in SSc patients from Southern Brazil and their association with ...

Citrulline and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in rheumatoid arthritis

Future Rheumatology, 2006
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by the destruction of multiple joints along with multiple organ involvement. The etiology of RA is still unknown. Various autoantigens have been proposed as targets of pathogenic T and B cells in RA, although none of their precise mechanisms or significance has been confirmed ...

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies with brucellosis

Rheumatology International, 2013
Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) was positive in 11.5 % and rheumatoid factor was positive in 8.8 % of the patients with Brucella. After a comparative evaluation, we have found out that there was not a statistical significance concerning the anti-CCP levels between the patients with brucellosis and healthy control.
