Introduction Cell biology studies, animal models and other data suggest a role for sirtuin-1 in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We hypothesized the clinical significance of serum sirtuin-1 in this disease.Methods Serum was obtained from 141 RA patients, 144 non-RA patients and 88 healthy controls. Sirtuin-1, anti-mutant citrulline vimentin antibody (anti-MCV), anti-cyclic citrulline polypeptide antibody (anti-CCP), rheumatoid factor and C-reactive protein were measured by immunological methods, and erythrocyte sedimenta
