Definitions

  • Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the joints. This creates inflammation that causes the tissue that lines the inside of joints (the synovium) to thicken. In healthy patients, the synovium makes a fluid that lubricates joints and helps them move smoothly. However, thickening of the synovium results in swelling and pain in and around the joints. While inflammation of the tissue around the joints and inflammatory arthritis are characteristic features of rheumatoid arthritis, the disease can also cause inflammation and injury in other organs in the body. Because it can affect multiple other organs of the body, rheumatoid arthritis is referred to as a systemic illness and is sometimes called rheumatoid disease. There is currently no cure for rheumatoid arthritis. Thus, novel and innovative therapies are currently needed to treat rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Rheumatoid factor is an antibody that is detectable in the blood of approximately 80% of adults with rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies are autoantibodies produced by the immune system that are directed against cyclic citrullinated peptides.
  • Citrulline is naturally produced in the body as part of the metabolism of the amino acid arginine. However, in joints with inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, this conversion may occur at a higher rate. Citrulline changes the protein structure and can trigger an immune response, producing autoantibodies against proteins found in joints.

  • Anti-CPP antibodies may be detected by any assay known in the art, including, but not limited to, Diastat anti-CCP ELISA assay, Axsym anti-CCP assay, Architect anti-CCP assay, and the Elecsys anti-CCP assay).
