Antibodies to Porphyromonas gingivalis Indicate Interaction Between Oral Infection, Smoking, and Risk Genes in Rheumatoid Arthritis Etiology

TL;DR: The antibody response to the P gingivalis virulence factor arginine gingipain type B (RgpB) in relation to anti–citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs), smoking, and HLA–DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles in patients with periodontitis, patients with RA, and controls is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Affinity purified anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies target antigens expressed in the rheumatoid joint

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the surrogate marker CCP2 can capture ACPAs that bind to autoantigens expressed in vivo in the major inflammatory lesions of RA (that is, in the rheumatoid joint) and that the purified ACPA bound not only in vitro citrullinated proteins but, more importantly, in vivo-generated epitopes on synovial fluid cells andsynovial tissues from patients with RA.
