Most experts believe the trigger for rheumatoid arthritis is an ordinary infection in a joint, to which the immune system mounts an ordinary response.

Even as the white cells attack, they send out signals, in the form of hormones called cytokines, that rally more troops to their aid. Meanwhile, the besieged synovial cells secrete prostaglandins, which cause inflammation. All this...
