Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlations of Eotaxin-1,rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody with the activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods A total of 58 patients with early RA,46 patients without RA and 53 healthy controls from our hospital during December 2014 and December 2015 were enrolled in our study.The activity of RA was evaluated by the swollen joint count (SJC),tender joint count (TJC) and DAS28 score.The levels of serum Eotaxin-1 and antiCCP antibody were detected by ELISA and serum RF levels were determined by the immunological turbidimetry.The comparisons of serum Eotaxin-1,anti-CCP antibody and RF levels between different groups were performed with ANOVA and their correlations with SJC,TJC and DAS28 score were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation.Results The levels of Eotaxin-1,anti-CCP antibody and RF in RA patients were (96.02 ± 2 1.07) pg/mL,(183.42 ± 87.45) U/mL and (119.09 ± 62.30) RU/mL,respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the patients without RA and healthy controls (P ＜ 0.01).The levels of serum Eotaxin-1 in RA patients were significantly related to TJC,SJC and DAS28 score (P ＜ 0.01),while the levels of anti-CCP antibody were related to TJC and DAS28 score.The levels of RF were only related to DAS28 score.Conclusion The levels of serum Eotaxin-1 and anti-CCP antibody in RA patients are significantly correlated with the activity of RA,which may be new serum markers to monitor the activity of RA.
