The prevalence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Jornal de Pediatria, 2005 OBJECTIVES: To assess the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in a cohort of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. METHODS: Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies was tested for with an enzyme linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) in serum samples of patients from the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, all less than ...

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in children with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis [PDF]
Electronic physician, 2016 The purpose of present study was to access the prevalence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies in children with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA), and to investigate the clinical significance and diagnostic value of the anti-CCP antibodies in correlation with age, sex & activity.This case-control study was performed on 50 ...

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome [PDF]
Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2005 Primary Sjogren’s syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune late onset disease characterised mainly by sicca symptoms. Lymphocytic infiltrate of the minor salivary glands and the presence of autoantibodies are the hallmarks of disease.1 The spectrum of pSS extends from an organ-specific autoimmune disorder (autoimmune exocrinopathy) to a systemic process that ...

Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Behcet's Disease
The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2007 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with progressive joint destruction and disability. Early diagnosis of RA is important, since early and aggressive treatments lead to a better outcome. Circulating autoantibodies are a serological hallmark of systemic rheumatic diseases.

The diagnostic value of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, adenosine deaminase activity and other potential biomarkers for predicting and monitoring rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2008 The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti- CCP2) in RA and non-RA patients and to evaluate the combination of these auto-antibodies with some other markers such as RF and CRP.

Diagnostic Utility of AxSYM Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody Assay
Annals of Laboratory Medicine, 2008 The presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) is one of the classification criteria of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but it has a limitation of low specificity. We compared the diagnostic utility of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies analyzed by an automated immunoassay system with that measured by a

Development of synthetic anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody and its arthritogenic role [PDF]
Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2015 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 ...
