• Resumen

  • Rheumatoid arthritis {RA) is an articular inflammation of unknown origin. lt has been said taht perhaps is an autoinmune disorder closely related to intestinal microflora, specially associated sith an increase in anaerobic bacteria with a higher Polysaccharide-Peptoglican (PS-PG) content. Also, lymph tissue related to bowel is the most important of all the body. Changes in intestinal flora induce changes in inmunity, by absorption of PS-PG present in bacterial walls. Several studies suggest a close relationshipe between induced RA in experimentation animals and Tlymphocite activity. Also, and hyperproteic diet is realted to changes in intestinal flora with a higher arthropathic risk.
