Genetic diversity in Proteus mirabilis isolates found in the urinary tract of rheumatoid arthritis patients.

The Journal of infection - 1 Nov 2000

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Elevated levels of anti-Proteus antibodies but not antibodies to E. coli have been reported in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The suggestion has been made that P. mirabilis may have a role in the aetiopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. The aim of this study was to determine whether there are differences at the genetic level inisolates of P. mirabilis obtained from controls and RA patients....
