Study of Venous Endothelial Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Analysis of Endothelial Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Heart disease is the major contributor of early death in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is not influenced by traditional risk factors. Blood vessel dysfunction has been associated with heart disease and complications such as heart attack. The vessel dysfunction is thought to be mediated in part to inflammation. RA patients have evidence of vessel dysfunction seen on ultrasound that improves after medications are given.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients with controlled or uncontrolled rheumatoid arthritis to determine if there is a difference in the protein expression in the cells that line the blood vessels compared to healthy people.

Endothelial cell protein expression by immunofluorescence microscopy of endothelial nitric oxide synthase, nitrotyrosine, nuclear factor kappa B.
Tijdsspanne: Cells are immediately processed following extraction and placed in -80 degree C freezer. Cells are then analyzed by immunofluorescence microscopy in batches of subjects. Patient is followed-up 24 hours after by phone.

Immunofluorescence microscopy of frozen endothelial cells will be processed in batches to reduce bias.
Cells are assessed for individual protein expression at study entry.
Repeated collection of cells will not been done.
