Combination of gp130-targeting and TNF-targeting small molecules in alleviating arthritis through the down-regulation of Th17 differentiation and osteoclastogenesis.
The degree of secondary joint swelling and arthritis index, expression of miR-26a, pathological changes, proliferation and apoptosis of chondrocytes, and expression of CTGF, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, Bax, and Bcl-2 were also determined through a series of experiments.
TNF-α: decreased in healthy, fatty liver, IBD and hepatic cirrhosis, no change in diabetes, metabolic syndrome (MS) + PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and arthritis.
Hence, the present study demonstrates that LPN-mediated TNF knockdown constitutes a promising approach for arthritis therapy of TNF-mediated chronic inflammatory conditions.
Diarylheptanoid, a constituent isolated from methanol extract of Alpinia officinarum attenuates TNF-α level in Freund's complete adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats.
These results suggest that TOV has significant anti-arthritic effects on collagen-induced arthritis in rats, which may be attributed to the inhibition of the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-17A, TNF-α, MMP-3 and MMP-9, and the increase of IL-10 in serum as well as down-regulation of the protein expression of COX-2 and iNOS in synovial tissues via suppressing the phosphorylation and degradation of IκB.
This case suggests that with exacerbation of arthritis during gouty arthritis, coexistence with other pathologies such as peripheral spondyloarthritis should be considered, and early intensive treatment including tumor necrosis factor inhibitors may be necessary.
Antidrug antibodies had no effect on the Assessment of Spondylosis Arthritis International Society (ASAS) remission rates, but patients with antidrug antibodies had lower drug levels and higher TNF-α levels.
Univariate analysis of arthritis CSF proteome revealed a decrease of 35 proteins, predominantly involved in inflammatory processes, following TNF blockade.
Addition of IL-17A, IL-17F and TNFα to synovial fibroblasts from patients with inflammatory arthritis resulted in significant production of IL-6 and IL-8, which was reduced to a larger extent by combined blockade of IL-17A and IL-17F than blockade of IL-17A alone.
These findings indicate that TNF selectively drives the early onset of arthritis and progression of pathologic changes in the cardiopulmonary system in female Tg3647 mice.
Our results showed GSZD reduced the toe swelling & arthritis score, and serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 & IL-17a in CIA rats; pathological examination results indicated GSZD improved ankle joint injury in CIA rats.In vitro, GSZD showed significant anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on TNF-α stimulated MH7A cells.
Rats treated with UP1306 showed statistically significant improvements in arthritis severity markers, including uCTX-II (91.4% vs. collagen-induced arthritis (CIA)), serum IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels as well as synovial MMP-13.
Our study demonstrated for the first time that an early treatment with NSAIDs, excluding cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor, is more beneficial than a TNFα blocker in preventing structural damage in adjuvant-induced arthritis.
In vitro and in vivo screening of an Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug library; in vitro and in vivo assays for examining the blockade of TNF actions by fexofenadine: assays for defining the anti-inflammatory activity of fexofenadine using TNF-α transgenic (TNF-tg) mice and collagen-induced arthritis in DBA/1 mice.
All the treated groups showed a significant therapeutic improvement in arthritis proved by measuring rats knee diameter as well as the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α).
The TNF-transgenic (TNF-Tg) murine model of RA develops both inflammatory arthritis and an ILD that mimics a cellular nonspecific interstitial pneumonia pattern dominated by an interstitial accumulation of inflammatory cells with minimal-to-absent fibrosis.
Our findings indicate that combined neutralization of TNF-α and IL-17A was considerably more effective than monotherapy in improving collagen-induced arthritis disease even when administered at a minimally efficacious dose.
The arthritis/DSS-treated mice did not demonstrate changes in hind foot volumes or in the concentration of matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) in the plasma; however, plasma levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were increased.
