  • Moreover, the Sa antigen, which, unlike (pro)filaggrin, is detectable in rheumatoid synovium, has recently also been shown to be citrullinated [ 18].

  • Anticyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) has recently been evaluated in a cohort of patients with early synovitis, and was found to be more specific than RF for early RA, while having comparable sensitivity [ 25].
