Therapeutic Effect of Rosiglitazone-Mediated Dendritic Cells in Established Arthritis in Mice
Background/Purpose: Rosiglitazone is a selective ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ), which is expressed by antigen presenting cells (APCs) and plays a fundamental role in…Abstract Number: 400 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Combination of the Collagen-Induced Arthritis and Organic Dust-Induced Airway Inflammation Models As a Model of Interstitial Lung Disease in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is characterized by extra-articular involvement including interstitial/inflammatory lung disease (ILD). Whereas the coexistence of RA and ILD is known, mechanisms…Abstract Number: 401 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Cigarette Smoking Dose-Dependently Facilitates the Onset of Arthritis and Aggravates Arthritis in Female Experimental Arthritis Mice

CR6086 Is Highly Effective and Improves Methotrexate Effect in a Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: CR6086, a selective EP4 antagonist, dose-dependently improves disease features in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) models in rodents. Indeed, recent studies highlight the role of the…Abstract Number: 409 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
An Evaluation of Absolute Neutrophil Count As a Biomarker of Inflammatory and Clinical Disease Activity in Baricitinib-Treated Patients
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (pts) tend to have higher absolute neutrophil count (ANC) values compared to healthy individuals.1 Baricitinib (BARI), an oral, selective Janus…Abstract Number: 410 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association between Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody Status and the Incidence of Erosive Disease in Patients with RA
