Relationship between ACPA titers and serum levels of sTIM-3 in patients with RA. Levels of ACPA titers were measured and correlation analysis with serum levels of sTIM-3 was performed. There was no significant correlation between serum levels of sTIM-3 and ACPA titers in RA patients with low titers of ACPA (<200 U/ml). Whereas there was a significant modest correlation between serum levels of sTIM-3 and ACPA titers in RA patients with high titers of ACPA (≧200 U/ml). ACPA = anti-citrullinated peptide antibody, RA = rheumatoid arthritis, sTIM-3 = soluble T cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin-3.
