Overview
Rheumatoid arthritis associated signs and symptoms were noticed by Augustin Jacob Landre-Beauvais, a resident physician at the Saltpetriere asylum in France, in 1800. He named it as Goutte Asthenique Primitive or Primary Asthenic Gout. The name Rheumatoid arthritis coined by Archibald Garrod in 1890. HLA-DR locus present on chromosome 6 is involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Rheumatoid arthritis associated signs and symptoms were noticed by Augustin Jacob Landre-Beauvais, a resident physician at the Saltpetriere asylum in France, in 1800. He named rheumatoid arthritis as Goutte Asthenique Primitive or Primary Asthenic Gout.[1]
- In 1890, Archibald Garrod coined the name Rheumatoid arthritis.[2]
- Major histocompatibility complex (MHC class II) cell surface receptors encoded by alleles of the HLA-DR locus on chromosome 6 were first implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis.[3][4]
