Abstract: | Antibodies directed to citrullinated proteins (anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide) are highly specific for rheumatoid arthritis
(RA). Recent data suggest that the antibodies may be involved in the disease process of RA and that several RA-associated
genetic factors might be functionally linked to RA via modulation of the production of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies
or citrullinated antigens. |
