Yersinia specific immune complexes in the synovial fluid of patients with yersinia triggered reactive arthritis.
Yersinia specific immune complexes were demonstrated in the synovial fluid of three patients out of 12 with yersinia triggered reactive arthritis. They were not detectable in the synovial fluid of any of the 16 control patients, including nine with reactive arthritis triggered by factors other than yersiniae. Platelet reactive IgG was detectable in the synovial fluid of eight out of the 12 pati...
متن کاملIgA-anti-yersinia antibodies in yersinia triggered reactive arthritis.
Patients who develop reactive arthritis after yersinia enteritis are characterised by high and persisting IgA-anti-yersinia antibodies. We have further analysed the humoral immune response to yersinia in this condition. Total concentrations of IgM, IgG, IgA, and secretory IgA in the serum and specific anti-yersinia antibodies belonging to IgA1, IgA2, or secretory IgA were compared in patients w...
متن کاملReactive Arthritis Caused by Yersinia enterocolitica Enteritis
We report a case of reactive arthritis (ReA) triggered by Yersinia enterocolitica enteritis. A 24-year-old Japanese man developed polyarthritis in the lower limbs. Two weeks prior to these symptoms, he noted diarrhea, right lower abdominal pain and a fever. Y. enterocolitica was not isolated from a stool culture; however, he was diagnosed with ReA based on the colonoscopic findings of a high an...
متن کاملReactive arthritis following Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection.
Reactive arthritis after Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection is rare. Two recent cases illustrate the typical features, and highlight the need to look for the diagnosis. CASE 1 A 19-year-old student presented with pain in her left hip for four days. She described pain in her right temporo-mandibular joint, neck stiffness for three weeks, tiredness, and loss of energy. Five weeks previously sh...
متن کاملIntestinal permeability in patients with yersinia triggered reactive arthritis.
The passive intestinal permeability of patients with yersinia triggered reactive arthritis was studied using different sized polyethylene glycols (PEGs) contained in a mixture of PEG 400 and PEG 1000. The investigation was carried out at least one year after the onset of yersinia infection, and patients had neither acute gastrointestinal nor joint symptoms. The control groups included patients ...
