Increased carbonyl content of proteins in synovial fluid from patients with rheumatoid arthritis

M L Chapman et al. J Rheumatol. 1989 Jan.

Abstract

The carbonyl content of proteins in the synovial fluid (SF) of patients with rheumatoid arthritis was significantly (p less than or equal to 0.10) elevated over levels in the SF of patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Other indicators of oxidative damage including catalse, ceruloplasmin, ferritin and superoxide dismutase also showed statistically significant differences (p less than or equal to 0.05) compared to patients with OA.
