New vaccine for rheumatoid arthritis? https://www.carenity.us/forum/rheumatoid-arthritis/your-opinion-on-rheumatoid-arthritis-treatment/a-new-vaccine-for-rheumatoid-arthritis-3971Hello @Rhumrhum, thank you for sharing with us!
For those of you who may not know what @Rhumrhum is talking about, a new study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences investigated the role of the 14-3-3 zeta protein in the development of RA in rats. The study found that vaccination with this protein lead to reduced joint inflammation and severity of arthritis, opening a new avenue for future research and hopefully treatments!
What do you think? Have you heard about the study? If a vaccine were to become available in the future for RA, do you think you would be interested?
