   The organic compound citrulline is an α-amino acid. [2] Its name is derived from citrullus, the Latin word for watermelon.Although named and described by gastroenterologists since the late 19th century, it was first isolated from watermelon in 1914 by Japanese researchers Yatarō Koga (古賀彌太郎) and Ryō Ōtake (大嶽了) [3] [4] and further codified by Mitsunori Wada of Tokyo ...

3. Homocitrulline - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homocitrulline

   Homocitrulline has been suggested as a confounding antigen for rheumatoid arthritis antibodies targeting citrullinated proteins/peptides. [1] Antibodies binding to homocitrulline-containing sequences have been found in rheumatoid arthritis patients' sera [2] [3] More recently, it has been shown that homocitrulline-containing proteins are present in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) joints. [4]

4. Citrullination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrullination

   Citrulline is not one of the 20 standard amino acids encoded by DNA in the genetic code. Instead, it is the result of a post-translational modification. Citrullination is distinct from the formation of the free amino acid citrulline as part of the urea cycle or as a byproduct of enzymes of the nitric oxide synthase family.

6. Anti–citrullinated protein antibody - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti–citrullinated...

   Citrulline Arginine. Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) are autoantibodies (antibodies to an individual's own proteins) that are directed against peptides and proteins that are citrullinated. They are present in the majority of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Clinically, cyclic citrullinated peptides (CCP) are frequently used to ...

7. Hair removal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_removal

   Shaving was the primary form of hair removal until reports in 1983 showed that it may lead to an increased risk of infection. [33] Clippers are now the recommended pre-surgical hair removal method. [34] [35] A 2021 systematic review brought together evidence on different techniques for hair removal before surgery. This involved 25 studies with ...
