Biosensor analysis of anti citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPA) affinity

open access: yes, 2014
Anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPAs) are detected in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) sera and because of their strict association with the disease are considered marker antibodies, probably endowed with pathogenic potential.

Characterization and Localization of Citrullinated Proteoglycan Aggrecan in Human Articular Cartilage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease of the synovial joints. The autoimmune character of RA is underscored by prominent production of autoantibodies such as those against IgG (rheumatoid factor), and a broad array of joint tissue ...

Defining the role of αC helix interactions in the activation of the integrin αI domain

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The α2I domain of the α2β1 integrin contains a distinctive αC helix and a conserved Arg288‐Glu318 ion pair that stabilizes the closed state of the domain. Disruption of this ion pair in the activated α2I variant unwinds the αC helix, which allows interaction with additional collagen‐binding sites increasing collagen binding.

Direct transition to a streamlined rheumatoid arthritis clinic improves outcomes after discharge from an early arthritis clinic environment

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The treat‐to‐target (T2T) strategy for the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) achieves remission or low disease activity in many patients. However, RA T2T is challenging in real‐world clinical environments. In this two‐stage audit, we evaluated the impact of transferring patients from a T2T intensive early arthritis clinic (EAC)

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...
