This project investigates the role of antibodies in chronic pain conditions, specifically rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. By studying how these antibodies affect sensory neurons, it aims to uncover new mechanisms of pain and potential therapeutic targets.
Pain is one of the most problematic symptoms of rheumatic disease such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and fibromyalgia (FM).
We have earlier discovered that antibodies (immunoglobulin, IgG) purified from blood of seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients induce pain-like behavior when transferred to mice, independent of inflammatory reactions.
Even though FM is not considered an autoimmune disease, it has been suggested that neuroimmune dysregulation contribute to the pathogenesis.
