Abstract

See full text

Antigenic peptides that bind to MHC Class II molecules with the shared epitope referred to as HLA-DR molecules are disclosed. More specifically, are citrullinated antigenic peptides having an increased affinity for HLA-DR molecules and associated with rheumatoid arthritis. These novel peptides provide the basis for new methods of diagnosis and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
