A predominant role of B lymphocytes, and perhaps of the rheumatoid factor they produced, was initially invoked. In more recent years, recognition of antigens in the joint by T cells sparking an inflammatory cascade has been a more favored interpretation. Here, we re-examine some of the arguments that underpin this proposed role of joint T cells, in light of recent results from transgenic mice in which a self-reactive T-cell receptor provokes disease, but from outside the joint and indirectly via B lymphocytes and immunoglobulins.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "Visit the original government dataset for complete information, documentation, and data access.", "downloadURL": "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC129991/", "mediaType": "text/html", "title": "Official Government Data Source"}], "identifier": "https://healthdata.gov/api/views/n3th-rnt4", "issued": "2025-07-14", "keyword": ["b-lymphocytes", "immunoglobulins", "nih", "rheumatoid-arthritis", "t-lymphocytes"], "landingPage": "https://healthdata.gov/d/n3th-rnt4", "modified": "2025-09-06", "programCode": ["009:048"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institutes of Health"}, "theme": ["NIH"], "title": "A revival of the B cell paradigm for rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis?"}
