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.
