Nanoparticle Exposure Linked To Rheumatoid Arthritis And Other Autoimmune Diseases

Medical News Today: According to a study published in the journal Nanomedicine, researchers have found an association between exposure to nanoparticles and rheumatoid arthritis and the development of other serious autoimmune disease. In addition, the team discovered new cellular targets for developing potential drug therapies to treat autoimmune diseases. The process involves citrullination, the transformation of arginine into citrulline, which can trigger autoimmune diseases.
