Methods of Detecting Autoantibodies in Patients Suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Peptide, and Assay Kit

摘要

"METHODS OF DETECTING AUTO-ANTIBODIES OF PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM RUMATOID ARTHRITIS, PEPTIDE AND TEST KIT". The present invention relates to the method of detecting autoantibodies of patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. For this purpose, according to the invention at least two peptide units are used, of which at least one peptide unit comprises a non-derivative part of (pro) filaggrin, fibrin, fibrinogen, vimentin, cytokeratin 1 and cytokeratin 9, and moiety. A peptide moiety comprising motif XG, and a peptide moiety comprising motif XnonG, wherein X is a citrulline or analog thereof, and nonG is a different amino acid from glycine.
