Joint Damage Progression in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Role of the HLA-DRB1 Shared Epitope and Anti-CCP
Background/Purpose: The HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) and antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP) are important to the susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and are thought…Abstract Number: 973 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
New Genetic Risk Loci for the Radiographic Severity of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The severity of joint destruction is highly variable between Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients; approximately 54% of this variance is explained by genetic factors. Many…Abstract Number: 2116 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Associations of HLA-DR Shared Epitope Alleles and Serum Cytokines Among Postmenopausal Women with Rheumatoid Factor and Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody-Positive Rheumatoid Arthritis
Title: The Associations of HLA-DRβ1 Shared Epitope Alleles and Serum Cytokines Among Postmenopausal Women with Rheumatoid Factor and Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody-Positive Rheumatoid ArthritisBackground/Purpose: This study…Abstract Number: 436 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Synthetic Anti-CCP Antibody Aggravated Severity of Animal Arthritis and Captured Citrullinated Antigen in the Serum of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Auto-antibodies against citrullinated protein antigens (ACPA) have shown their relevance for the prognosis and diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and have been implicated in…Abstract Number: 2120 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Predictive Value of Anti-CCP Positivity On Disease Course and Response to Therapy in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis. Results From the Swedish EIRA Study
Background/Purpose: Does anti-CCP-positivity predict disease course and response to therapy in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA)? Methods: We retrieved clinical follow-up data for patients entering the…Abstract Number: 439 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Interaction of Antibodies Against Citrullinated Peptides with HLA Shared Epitope, PTPN22 1858T Variant, and Smoking in Individuals Prior to and After the Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The presence of antibodies against cyclic citrullinated peptides (ACPA) has been demonstrated to precede the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by several years. The…Abstract Number: 1769 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Affinity Purification and Characterisation of Anti-CCP Antibodies From Plasma and Synovial Fluids of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Autoimmunity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by autoantibodies to citrullinated proteins/peptides (ACPA). These antibodies (present in 60-70% of patients) antedate clinical onset and…Abstract Number: 412 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms within the HLA-DRB1 Gene in Relation to Antibodies Against Citrullinated Peptides in Individuals Prior to the Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Multiplex analysis has demonstrated the presence of several antibodies against cyclic citrullinated peptides (ACPA) preceding the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by several years.…Abstract Number: 1770 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Recognition of Citrullinated and Carbamylated Proteins by Human Antibodies: Specificity, Cross-Reactivity and the “AMC-Senshu” Method
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) play an important role in the diagnosis and prognosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The Anti-Modified Citrulline (AMC) (‘Senshu’) method is…
