IgE and IgE-rheumatoid factors in circulating immune complexes in rheumatoid arthritis.
The sera of 21 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 11 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and 20 healthy subjects were analysed for the presence of IgE in immune complex fractions. These fractions were isolated by polyethylene glycol precipitation and gel filtration. Thirteen sera from RA patients contained IgE immune complexes (IC) and 11 of these were from patients with ext...
متن کاملCirculating immune complexes contain citrullinated fibrinogen in rheumatoid arthritis
INTRODUCTION There is increasing evidence that autoantibodies and immune complexes (ICs) contribute to synovitis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), yet the autoantigens incorporated in ICs in RA remain incompletely characterised. METHODS We used the C1q protein to capture ICs from plasma derived from human RA and control patients. Antibodies specific for immunoglobulin were used to detect ICs, and...
متن کاملImmune complexes and complement in rheumatoid arthritis.
Immune complexes have been shown to occur frequently during rheumatoid arthritis. They have been found in blood, in the synovium and in other extravascular lesions. The recent development of methods for the quantitation of immune complexes provided new tools to evaluate the possible role of immune complexes in rheumatoid arthritis. Immune complexes which appear in synovial fluid are in higher c...
متن کاملThe effect of eight weeks aerobic exercise on some immune factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of an eight- week aerobic exercise on some immune system factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Twenty – three women (age: 51.96 ± 7.73, weight: 72.37 ± 10 kg) were enrolled in the study voluntarily Methods: In this quasi – experimental random study, subjects were assigned to training and control group. The training group (...
متن کاملComparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis
Background: Changes in patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which can be due to the use of corticosteroid drugs to reduce patients' symptoms or due to the aging process in patients. In this study, we decided to compare BMD in patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: This study as a cross-sectional descrip...
