Welcome to RAIpred

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a debilitating autoimmune disease marked by chronic joint inflammation, pain, and progressive bone erosion, impacting millions worldwide. This condition arises when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, often triggered by peptides from external sources like viruses and bacteria that mimic human self-peptides. This prediction server identifies such RA-inducing peptides, aiding researchers in pinpointing immune triggers and advancing the understanding of RA pathology, ultimately supporting therapeutic efforts for better disease management.By leveraging this tool, users can gain valuable insights into the potential role of peptides in RA onset and progression.
