Early synovial regulatory T cell engagement in posttraumatic osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) develops despite restoration of joint biomechanics, suggesting that early post‐injury biological processes within the synovium shape disease trajectories. We investigated whether synovial regulatory T (Treg) cells are engaged during the early phase following joint injury and whether experimental enrichment ...

Persistence of a rheumatoid factor (RF)-producing B cell clone with a somatically mutated Igκ chain in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Immunology, 1994
SUMMARYThe VκIV gene encoding the light chain of an IgA RF has been shown to have undergone 31 somatic mutations compared with the single existing VκIV germ-line gene. We now show the persistence of the rearranged and mutated DNA coding for this RF over a period of 5 years in the peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) of the patient with rheumatoid ...

Association between the HLA-DRB1 with the disease activity parameters among Egyptian RA patients [PDF]

open access: yesArcades of Medicine
Background: Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (ACCP), both indicators of seropositivity and closely linked to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), have been correlated with the human leukocyte antigen (HLA), +DRB1 allele.

COMPARISON OF RHEUMATOID FACTOR (RF) AND ANTI CYCLIC CITRULLINATED PEPTIDE (ANTI -CCP) ANTIBODIES IN EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS.

open access: yesINDIAN JOURNAL OF APPLIED RESEARCH, 2020
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease associated with chronic inflammation of joints causing deformities and functional impairment. Rheumatoid factor (RF) is an autoantibody specific for the Fc portion of human IgG. RF has low specificity as high false positive results are common in the general population.

MDL‐800‐induced SIRT6 activation decreases age‐associated osteoarthritis in mice

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective SIRT6 is a nuclear‐localized histone deacetylase that regulates multiple pathways associated with aging. This study aimed to determine whether systemic administration of a small molecule activator of SIRT6, MDL‐800, decreases the severity of age‐associated osteoarthritis (OA) in mice.

Biologic treatments in rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A number of biological approaches to the management of inflammtory arthropathies have been explored. These include the development of IL-1 receptor antagonists and TNF antagonists. Four biological agents are currently marketed in Europe.

American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism Provisional Definition of Remission in Rheumatoid Arthritis for Clinical Trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Remission in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an increasingly attainable goal, but there is no widely used definition of remission that is stringent but achievable and could be applied uniformly as an outcome measure in clinical trials.

IgA rheumatoid factor in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yes, 2022
Objectives Rheumatoid factor (RF) is a well-established marker for the diagnosis and classification of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Most studies evaluated IgM RF or isotype-nonspecific total RF assays. We evaluated the added value of IgA RF in this context.

The association between systemic inflammation as measured by calprotectin and autoantibody load in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Plasma calprotectin is a marker of neutrophil activity. Its relation to the clinical phenotype and autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is only partly understood. We therefore aimed to investigate the association between calprotectin and clinical parameters, CRP, ESR, anti‐CCP2 and other anti‐modified protein autoantibodies (AMPAs) in
