The presence of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in the serum is one of the immunological features of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) assay has been widely used in clinic for the diagnosis of RA.

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

Objective Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for cancer can lead to immune‐related adverse events, including ICI‐associated inflammatory arthritis (ICI‐IA). There are no validated International Classification of Diseases (ICD) code–based case definitions for ICI‐IA.

Citrullinated α-enolase is an effective target for anti-cancer immunity
Targeting post-translationally modified epitopes may provide a new strategy for generating tumor specific immune responses. Citrullination is the post-translational modification of arginine to citrulline catalyzed by peptidylarginine deaminase (PAD ...

The Infectious Basis of ACPA-Positive Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (HLA-DRB1SE) and anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPAs). ACPAs precedes the onset of clinical and subclinical RA.

Immune Recognition of Citrullinated Proteoglycan Aggrecan Epitopes in Mice with Proteoglycan-Induced Arthritis and in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease affecting the joints. Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) are frequently found in RA.

Objective Carbamylation, a nonenzymatic post‐translational modification, contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP) occur in around 50% of patients with RA and associate with greater joint damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a major source of carbamylated autoantigens. We sought

Objective Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated with high mortality and morbidity. Lung ultrasonography (LUS) has recently emerged as a possible screening tool. We assessed the role of LUS in monitoring radiologic progression and the development of new interstitial lung ...

Insights of rheumatoid arthritis risk factors and associations
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a defective post-translational modification of citrullinated peptides which cause synovial inflammation in joints. The present review elaborates the basic mechanisms of RA and the root causes of molecular mechanisms.
