Abstract
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis is associated with bone loss and the risk of osteoporotic fracture. Bone loss in this disease is mediated by inflammation and autoimmunity. Many studies have shown that anti-citrullinated protein antibody is capable of inducing bone loss through several mechanisms.This study aimed to determine the relationship between autoimmunity, represented by anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (anti-MCV) in this study, and bone loss, represented by C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-1), and N-terminal pro-peptide of type 1 procollagen (P1NP) in this study, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in remission and low disease activity.
Material and methods: This study enrolled 38 rheumatoid arthritis patients with disease remission and low disease activity in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital between August and September 2019. We collected the patients' demographic data, Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28), and treatment history. All participants underwent blood work for anti-MCV, CTX-1, and P1NP.
Results: Thirty-four of the subjects were women (89.5%), with the mean age of 40 ±7.6 years and the median disease duration of 36 months. Among the subjects, 26 patients (68.4%) were anti-MCV positive. There was no correlation between anti-MCV and CTX-1 levels (r = 0.101, p = 0.274). There was a moderate negative correlation between anti-MCV and P1NP (r = -0.449, p = 0.001). The mean difference of P1NP according to anti-MCV level also showed a significant difference (p = 0.019).
Conclusions: The anti-MCV levels are not directly correlated with CTX-1 levels, indicating heterogeneity in the disease course even after inflammation has ceased. The anti-MCV and P1NP levels are moderately correlated, indicating that bone formation is resumed during the suppression of autoimmunity.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
