Enhanced bacterial phagocytosis by peripheral blood monocytes in rheumatoid arthritis.
To assess the functional state of peripheral blood monocytes in rheumatoid arthritis, we have measured phagocytosis of Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis in 48 patients and 28 controls. Using radiolabelled bacteria preopsonised in normal human serum we have demonstrated significantly enhanced uptake of both organisms by patients' monocytes: (Median % uptake Staph. aureus: patients = 35...
متن کاملChanges in Glycosylation of Alpha-1-Protease Inhibitor in Inflammation (Rheumatoid Arthritis and Crohn\'s Disease)
Alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor (API) is one of the acute phase proteins. Following an inflammatory stimuli the concentration of API increased up to four folds. Accompanying these quantitative changes, there is qualitative alterations in the structure of carbohydrate moiety (glycosylation). To determine the alterations in the glycosylation of API in inflammation, API was isolated from the sera of...
متن کاملRadioisotope study of small joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis.
Radioactive technetium (9QmTc), introduced into nuclear medicine in 1964 (Harper, Beck, Charleston, and Lathrop, 1964), has been used to visualize many organs (McCready, 1967), including the thyroid gland (Andros, Harper, Lathrop, and McCardle, 1965), the salivary glands (Harden, Hilditch, Kennedy, Mason, Papadopoulos, and Alexander, 1967b), the stomach (Harden, Alexander, and Kennedy, 1967a; I...
متن کاملComparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis
Background: Changes in patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which can be due to the use of corticosteroid drugs to reduce patients' symptoms or due to the aging process in patients. In this study, we decided to compare BMD in patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: This study as a cross-sectional descrip...
