Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic disorder characterised by inflammation of the joint synovial membrane associated with cytokine release resulted in progressive joint destruction. RA pathogenesis was thought to be initiated by bone resorption by osteoclasts, immune system activation and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) production. Serum MMP-3 levels at the onset of disease is predictive of joint damage progression and thought to play an important role in joint destruction in RA. This study aimed to determine the presence of elevated serum MMP-3 in RA patients and to produce custom made patient derived anti-MMP-3 antibody for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. We found significant increase of serum MMP-3 in RA patients participated in this study and able to produce anti-MMP-3 antibody from their serum. The success of MMP-3 antibody production from RA patients in this study is novel and will be beneficial for future diagnostic and prognostic purposes for patients from similar geographical area. Currently none of the MMP-3 antibodies which are available commercially were produced in the Asian countries which raised questions about their specificity for the local use.
