The effects of the citrullinating enzyme, peptidylarginine deiminase, on the activation of T cells
2017-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis (PID) are two chronic inflammatory diseases associated with the modification of self-proteins by citrullinating peptidyl arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes, leading to a loss of tolerance by the immune system. The main goal of this study was to explore the action of PAD enzymemediated citrullination on T cell membrane proteins and gene expression in relation to the T cell...
