RESUMEN
Objective To compare the positive rate of anti-mutant citrulline vimentin (MCV) antibody and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody in serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).To investigate the diagnostic value and significance of anti-MCV and antiCCP antibody in these two diseases.Methods Anti-CCP and anti-MCV antibodies were detected by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The serum samples were from 113 patients with JIA,632 patients with RA,102 adult without RA and 56 children without RA.Chi-square test and multiple comparisons were used for statistical analysis.Results ① In RA patients,the sensitivity,specificity and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) of anti-MCV antibody was 90.2%,91.2%,0.919;the sensitivity,specificity and area under the ROC curve of anti-CCP antibody was 92.6%,93.1% and 0.934.In JIA,the specificity of antibodies was 98.2%,the sensitivity was low.Area under the ROC curve of anti-MCV antibody was 0.579.Area under the ROC curve of anti-CCP antibody was 0.561.② The positive rate of anti-MCV antibody in RA was 90.2%,which was higher than that of JIA (16.8%) (P<0.01).The positive rate of anti-CCP antibody in RA was 92.2%,which was higher than that of JIA (14.2%) (P<0.01).The positive rates of antiMCV antibody in JIA with RF-negative polyarthrosis,RF-positive polyarthrosis,systemic type,oligo-joint type,attachment points,unclassified was 11.8%,69.2%,14.3%,17.4%,3.6%,0.The positive rate of anti-CCP was 11.8%,61.5%,14.3%,13.0%,0 and 0 prespectively.For anti-MCV antibody,the chi-square values in patients with RA between RF-negative polyarthrosis,RF-positive olyarthrosis,systemic type,oligo-joint type,attachment points,unclassified arthritis were 160.2,4.02,34.4,102.0,165.1 and 57.0 respectively.There were significant differences between RA and all types of JIA (P<0.05).The positive rate of anti-CCP antibody in patients with RA between RF-negative polyarthrosis,RF-positive polyarthrosis,systemic type,iligo-joint type,attachment points,unclassified arthritis were 192.3,11.9,44.0,139.4,212.5 and 71.9.There were significant differences between RA and all types of JIA (P<0.05).Conclusion The diagnostic value of anti-MCV and anti-CCP antibodies is high in RA.Anti-MCV and anti-CCP antibody have certain diagnostic value of JIA.The positive rates of anti-MCV and anti-CCP antibody in the types in JIA are lower than those of RA patients.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the relationship between anti mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) antibody, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody with disease activity and bone erosion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), so as to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods The anti-CCP antibody and anti-MCV antibody were detected using the enzyme-linked immune adsorption method (ELISA) for 634 patients with RA. At the same time, the clinical and laboratory data were collected, and the X-ray images of hands or feet were taken. Disease activity score (DAS)28 score was calculated, and all patients were divided into high disease activity group, moderatedisease activity group, low disease activity group and stable disease group on the basis of the DAS28 score. We analyzed the relationship between the degree of anti MCV, anti CCP antibodies, and disease activity of patients by Spearman correlation. And anti CCP, anti MCV antibodies, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C reactive protein (CRP) of these patients were compared at different period of bone erosion and disease activity by the Wilcoxon rank sum test and nemenyi. Results ① Positive correlation could be detected between anti-MCV antibody and ESR, CRP, number of tender joint, DAS28 score (r=0.115, P=0.004; r=0.120, P=0.003; r=0.124, P=0.002; r=0.085, P=0.032), and anti CCP antibody had no correlation with these index. The anti MCV antibodies in high disease activity group [694 (156, 1 000)] U/ml, and moderate activity group [911 (190, 1 000)] U/ml were higher than that of the low disease activity [248(150, 731)] U/ml or stable group [275(62, 928)] U/ml (U=2.29, P=0.023;U=2.25, P=0.024; U=2.45, P=0.014; U=2.4, P=0.018), and anti CCP antibody in the moderate disease activity group [499(180, 1 370)] U/ml was higher than low disease activity group [297(83, 574)] U/ml and stable group [187(67, 1 153)] U/ml (U=2.53, P=0.012; U=2.22, P=0.026). ②The anti MCV, anti CCP antibody in the bone erosion group were higher than those without bone erosion group (U=4.64, P<0.01;U=2.69, P=0.007). The anti MCV antibodies in stage Ⅱ[722(259, 1 000)] U/ml and Ⅲ group [714 (216, 1 000)] U/ml was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅰ [316(98, 1 000)] U/ml(U=3.46, P<0.01; U=4.28, P<0.01). The anti CCP antibody level in stage Ⅱ [394(180, 1 000)] U/ml and Ⅲ[391(181,1305)] U/ml was higher compared with stage Ⅰ[277 (98,898)] U/ml (U=1.99, P=0.046; U=2.92, P=0.004), and that in phase Ⅲ was higher than Ⅳ [218(71, 911)] U/ml (U=2.06, P=0.041). Conclusion Compared with anti-CCP antibody, anti-MCV antibody is closely related with disease activity, and has a better predictive value for bone erosion. Patients with higher ESR and CRP are more susceptible to bone erosion.

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is a common connective tissue disease of children.The rate of disability is high.Therefore,early diagnosis is important.There are some study on the value of antibodies in juvenile idiopathic arthritts,such as rheumatoid factor,antiperinuclear factor,antikeratin antibody,antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptides and so on.This review introduces the progress of them.
RESUMEN
Objective To detect anti-cell membrane DNA ( cmDNA) antibody with human B lym-phocyte Raji cells and human promyelocytic leukemia HL60 cells as substrates and to compare the diagnostic value of anti-cmDNA antibody with that of anti-nucleosome antibody ( AnuA ) , anti-Sm antibody and anti-double-stranded DNA ( dsDNA) antibody in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus ( JSLE) patients. Meth-ods We recruited 92 JSLE patients and 71 patients with other rheumatic diseases. Anti-cmDNA antibody an-dantinuclear antibody ( ANA ) was detected in patient serum by indirect immunofluorescence assays ( IIF ) . Anti-dsDNA antibody were detected by combining enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay ( ELISA) and IIF. Anti-Sm antibody were detected by double immunodiffusion assay and immunoblotting, while anti-nucleosome antibody ( AnuA) were detected by ELISA. We collected concurrent clinical data. Results Anti-cmDNA antibody demonstrated stronger intensity of fluorescent patterns in using Raji cells as substrate than HL60 cells. JSLE patients had a significantly higher positive percentage of anti-cmDNA than patients with other rheu-matoid diseases. The sensitivity of anti-cmDNA on cell line Raji was higher than that of anti-dsDNA and anti-Sm (P0. 05) and was lower than anti-Sm and AnuA (P0. 05) and the specificity was lower than AnuA (P<0. 01). The sensitivities of anti-dsDNA, anti-Sm and AnuA by combining with an-ti-cmDNA were much higher than that of the above antibody detected respectively ( P<0. 05 ) . Anti-cmDNA had no correlation with SLE disease activity index ( P=0. 907 ) . Conclusion The high sensitivity and speci-ficity of anti-cmDNA antibody make it a valuable diagnostic tool for JSLE. Combined detection of anti-cmDNA and other autoantibody might further improve the sensitivity in JSLE. Anti-cmDNA detected with IIF on cell line Raji was better than cell line HL60.
