Will 14-3-3η Be a New Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Rheumatoid Arthritis? A Prospective Study of Its Utility in Early Diagnosis and Response to Treatment

RESULTS: Serum14-3-3η levels were significantly higher in all RA patients than in controls (P < 0.001), its sensitivity was 86.7% and 88.3% in early and established RA patients with a significant difference with RF and ACCP at early disease, and the specificity was 96.7%. There was a significant...

Sumario:RESULTS: Serum14-3-3η levels were significantly higher in all RA patients than in controls (P < 0.001), its sensitivity was 86.7% and 88.3% in early and established RA patients with a significant difference with RF and ACCP at early disease, and the specificity was 96.7%. There was a significant reduction of 14-3-3η levels 6 months after treatment in the first group (p=0.004), and there was a significant positive correlation between serum 14-3-3η levels and parameters of disease activity and severity. CONCLUSION: 14-3-3η could be a novel, potent, and efficacious diagnostic, and prognostic marker for RA with high sensitivity, that may become a new therapeutic target for RA.
