Sat0596 associations Between Circulating Lipid Mediators and Incident Inflammatory Arthritis in an Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody Positive Population
Abstract:Background:Lipid mediators are endogenously derived from the metabolism of omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and have important roles in promoting and resolving inflammation in the body (1). Epidemiological studies have shown higher omega-3 PUFA status to be associated with a lower risk of both autoimmunity and progression to inflammatory arthritis (IA) (2,3).Objectives:To determine the association of lipid mediators with progression from rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-related autoimmunity to … Show more
