Development of synthetic anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody and its arthritogenic role [PDF]
This study was undertaken to develop a novel anti‐citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) and to investigate its arthritogenicity in a collagen‐induced arthritis (CIA) model. The novel ACPA, 12G1, was developed by injecting cyclic citrullinated antigen in mice and subsequently hybridizing the B cells producing citrullinated peptide‐specific antibodies ...

Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies and Joint Involvement in Behçet's Disease
We aimed to determine the prevalence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies in a large group of Korean patients with Behçet's disease (BD), with and without joint involvement, and to compare these findings with the prevalences of anti-CCP antibodies in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).We

Objective JAK inhibitors (JAKi) have shown promising effects in early‐phase studies of systemic sclerosis (SSc). We aimed to assess the safety and explore the effectiveness of JAKi compared to conventional immunosuppressants in SSc. Methods A longitudinal retrospective study of the European Scleroderma Trials and Research Group (EUSTAR) cohort was ...

Anti-cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
We analysed the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) and anti-keratin (AKA) antibodies of the IgG class in sera of patients with defined juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) of various subgroups with more than one year duration of the disease.
