## Abstract ## Objective The evolution of the rheumatoid arthritis (RA)–specific anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP) antibody response, as measured by the isotypes of anti‐CCP, has not been described. This study was undertaken to determine anti‐CCP isotype usage in patients with undiffere
## Abstract ## Objective Anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP) antibodies are rheumatoid arthritis (RA)–specific serologic markers. RA susceptibility has been associated with HLA–DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles and single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in the peptidyl arginine de
