Assessment of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide in psoriatic arthritis [PDF]
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 ...

Pathogenic Role of Circulating Citrullinated Antigens and Anti-Cyclic Monoclonal Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]
We examined whether it is possible to directly detect citrullinated antigens in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) designed to be specific for citrullinated peptides. In order to confirm the potential of the

Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody as a Predictor of Rheumathoid Arthritis Complications. [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease, with more frequent occurrence in the female gender, it primarily affects the lining of the synovial joints, and is associated with lower quality of life, inability to work, progressive disability, and all of these patients are more likely to develop other comorbidities.To display the ...

The anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide response in tuberculosis patients is not citrulline-dependent and sensitive to treatment [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Patients with tuberculosis (TB) frequently produce anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA). The objective of this study is to characterize the citrulline-dependence of the ACPA reactivity in sera of patients with mycobacterium infections.
