Is rheumatoid arthritis an autoimmune disease?

Current opinion in rheumatology - 1 Mar 2016

Chemin Karine, Klareskog Lars, Malmström Vivianne

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is not a homogenous disease entity but a syndrome with different causes and abnormalities with shared clinical manifestations. One major subset is anticitrullinated protein antibody (ACPA)-positive RA, which represents the larger fraction of RA patients and where autoantibodies and HLA class II association implicate an autoimmune condition. In the past few years, the...
