[The pathogenic role and production system of autoantibody in rheumatoid arthritis]
Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects 1% of the population worldwide, however the pathogenic role remains elusive. Successful treatment with anti-CD20 therapy highlighted the importance of B cells in RA. Several antibodies (Abs) were identified from sera from RA patients such as rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP Abs, anti-glucose-6-phosphate isomerase Abs, anti-calpastatin Abs, anti-soluble gp130 Abs, anti-collagen type II Abs, etc. In this review, we will focus on the pathogenicity and production system of auto-Abs in RA, and also explain about recent advance from human study.
