The identification of specific proinflammatory cytokines and immune cells in chronic arthritis has lead to the development of new targeted therapies. These clinical and experimental observations appear to be rapidly changing our understanding of AS and related disorders further separating this disease from rheumatoid arthritis and its associated concepts. The differences between these common forms of arthritis thereby trigger new questions and will hopefully lead to more specific targeted therapies adapted to the individual patient's needs.
