Abstract:
A new pathway leading to arthritis has been revealed by the discovery that antibodies specific for a ubiquitously expressed antigen are able to transfer a severe arthritic phenotype in mice. This new model will be useful for further analyses of the different pathways involved in rheumatoid arthritis.
