Study of the serologic biomarkers of rheumatoid arthritis: autoantibodies to Sa/citrullinated vimentin. These autoantibodies are biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis in both early and established disease. Understanding the role of citrullination of proteins in inflammation and tissue destruction and how arthritis treatment can modulate both the antigenic load and the specific antibody response.serological diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of diseases, anti-citrullinated vimentin (anti-Sa) autoantibodies in early undifferentiated rheumatoid arthritis
