Compositions and methods for treating rheumatoid arthritis and/or accelerated atherosclerosis are provided, including an inhibitor of oxidized or malondialdehyde-modified low density lipoprotein (LDL) for administration to a subject. Exemplary inhibitors of oxidized LDL include an anti-oxidized LDL antibody, which results in a reduction in the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokine from primary monocyte in vitro and the plasma cytokine level of inflammatory cytokine in vivo.

Methods for treatment of accelerated atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis with an anti-Apo B100 antibody

Compositions and methods for treating a subject with psoriasis are provided, including an inhibitor of oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL), malondialdehyde-modified epitope in LDL or native LDL for administration. Exemplary inhibitors of oxidized or malondialdehyde-modified LDL include orticumab, a variant antibody or peptides capable of binding oxidized or malondialdehyde-modified LDL, which results in improvement in conditions of psoriasis even in patients that are refractory to ultraviolet A/B therapy and topical steroids.
