OBJECTIVE
The presence of serological markers associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been studied in spondyloarthritis with conflicting results. The anti-glycan antibodies: anti-laminaribioside, anti-chitobioside, and anti-mannobioside carbohydrate antibodies (ALCA, ACCA, and AMCA) are
HLA-B27-associated spondyloarthritides are associated with an altered intestinal microbiota and bowel inflammation. We undertook this study to identify HLA-B27-dependent changes in both host and microbial metabolites in the HLA-B27/β2 -microglobulin (β2 m)-transgenic rat and to determine whether
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the potential utility of dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in incidence studies of lumbar spinal spondyloarthropathy.
METHODS
Fifty-eight women recruited after menopause to a study of spinal bone loss were measured every 2 years for over a decade. Five developed scan image
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the expression of the carbohydrate structures Lewis Y (LeY), sialyl-LeX (sLeX) and Lewis X (LeX) on paired peripheral blood (PB) and synovial fluid (SF) granulocytes in patients with arthritic diseases.
METHODS
Ten patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), seven patients with
In higher vertebrates, mucosal sites at the border between the internal and external environments, directly interact with bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Through co-evolution, hosts developed mechanisms of tolerance or ignorance toward some infectious agents, because hosts established "gain of
OBJECTIVE
Improved DNA sequencer-aided fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (DSA-FACE) technology was used to monitor the changes in the galactosylation status of serum immunoglobulins during the immune response and therapy of autoimmune arthritis.
METHODS
Collagen-induced arthritis
