Citrullinated vimentin as an important antigen in immune complexes from synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis patients with antibodies against citrullinated proteins [PDF]
, 2010 Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease, which results in destruction of the joint. The presence of immune complexes (IC) in serum and synovial fluid of RA patients might contribute to this articular damage through different ...

Isolation of rheumatoid factors [PDF]
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1961 AbstractA method for the separation of rheumatoid factors into two serologically distinct macroglobulins is described. Macroglobulins, reacting with cells coated with human as well as with rabbit gamma globulin, were found to be mainly 19.4S, but occasionally such preparations contained minor constituents sedimenting at 22s as well as 27s ...
