To understand the regulation of anti-citrulline-containing peptide antibody (anti-CCP) production in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), production of anti-CCP by B cells derived from peripheral blood (PB), bone marrow (BM), and synovial fluid (SF) was examined. Purified PB and SF B cells

This article reviews the link between periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with regard to similarities in genetic risk factors and immunopathogenesis. Emphasis is paid to the potential role of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis in the etiopathogenesis of both periodontitis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) represents a disease where we have recently acquired new knowledge on etiology and molecular pathogenesis, by combining data from studies on genetic end environmental determinants of disease with molecular and cellular immunology. This combined approach has provided

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterised by autoimmunity to citrullinated proteins, and there is increasing epidemiologic evidence linking Porphyromonas gingivalis to RA. P gingivalis is apparently unique among periodontal pathogens in possessing a citrullinating enzyme, peptidylarginine deiminase (PPAD) with the potential
Annals of the rheumatic diseases, 73(4), 752-755 (2013-07-28)
To study the impact of parity history on the risk of antibodies to citrullinated peptide antigens (ACPA) positive and ACPA-negative rheumatoid arthritis (RA), in different age-groups. Data from a population-based case-control study of female incident RA cases were analysed (2035
