Discovery of Post-Translationally Modified Epitopes in Autoimmunity: Someone Has to Fish so Everyone Can Eat. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) chemically diversify the ~20,000 genomically encoded proteins into millions of functional variants, and this diversity has profound consequences for T cell‐mediated immune responses. PTM‐reactive T cells have been identified across numerous autoimmune diseases and, in several cases, implicated directly ...

Interaction between extracellular matrix molecules and microbial pathogens: evidence for the missing link in autoimmunity with rheumatoid arthritis as a disease model. [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation followed by tissue rebuilding or fibrosis. A failure by the body to regulate inflammation effectively is one of the hallmarks of RA.

Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...

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 ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Periodontal sources of citrullinated antigens and TLR agonists related to RA
Anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) precede the onset of clinical and subclinical rheumatoid arthritis (RA). ACPA are frequently generated in further chronic inflammatory diseases, e.g.

Biomedical research involving US veterans continues to advance health care beyond the Veterans Health Administration. This is particularly true in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), where veteran‐centric research has uncovered novel insights into pathogenesis, risk factors, and disease manifestations, informing clinical care and research across both veteran ...

Validation of a multiplex chip-based for the detection of autoantibodies against citrullinated peptides. [PDF]
International audienceABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Autoantibodies directed against citrullinated proteins/peptides (ACPA) are highly specific and predictive for the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
