Overview
Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice is widely used as an experimental model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in humans. CIA is mediated by autoantibodies, which bind to a particular region of type II collagen (CII). The ability to induce arthritis using this arthritogenic antibody cocktail provides an efficient protocol for the induction of antibody-mediated arthritis that can be used as a shorter, more synchronized alternative to the CIA model.
Benefits of the CAIA model
- Length of study: Arthritis develops in mice typically within 24-48 hr allowing the completion of a study within 2 weeks reducing the number of assessments and scoring periods.
- Reduced group size: Rate of incidence is nearly 100% depending on the strain allowing for smaller group sizes.
- Synchronization: onset of disease is synchronized between animals simplifying treatment schedules.
- Steady & Controlled Disease Progression: evaluate various regimes with a steady disease progression. No rapid & severe disease spikes to contend with.
- Susceptibility: Induce arthritis in transgenic strains with as little as 2 mg of Antibody.

Data/Specifications
Epitope specificity
The classic CIA model is mediated by autoantibodies which bind totypeII collagen and complement. In mice as well as human RA patients,theantibody response that best correlates with disease is directedagainstthe C1, J1 and U1 epitopes. The ArthritoMab™ arthritogeniccocktail of 4 monoclonal antibodies binds to these well-defined epitopesC11b, J1, D3 and U1, which are spread over the entire CII (CB8, CB10and CB11 fragments). This possibly encourages better immune complexformation on the cartilage surface for the initiation of arthritis andproduces consistent and predictable disease in all 4 paws (withpredominance for the rear). Competitor products only recognize CB11,which produces variable disease that can contribute to unpredictableinvolvement in the paws (sometimes more front paw involvment and othertimes more rear involvement).
