- Increased serum levels of the antibodies IgM rheumatoid factor (IgM-RF) and antibodies against citrullinated proteins (ACPA) in healthy individuals imply an elevated risk of developing RA - The possible role of #Porphyromonas gingivalis in the immunopathogenesis of RA has been of particular interest due to its capacity to generate citrullinated proteins.
