PAD4 Immunization Triggers Anti-Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Normal Mice: Analysis With Peptide Arrays
The critical immunological event in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the production of antibodies to citrullinated proteins (ACPAs), ie proteins on which arginines have been transformed into citrullines by peptidyl arginine deiminases (PAD). In C3H mice, immunization with PAD4 triggers the production of...
