مقایسه سطح پروتئین شوک حرارتی- 70 در مایع سینویال بیماران مبتلا به آرتریت روماتوئید و اوستئوآرتریت

Background: Heat-shock proteins are part of a strictly controlled biological system that allows organisms to respond to environmental stresses. Different proinflammatory cytokines are present in the synovial tissue of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Such tissues respond to stress and induce heat-shock proteins. In addition, synovial cells are exposed to mechanical stress caused by joint motion. ...

A tissue kallikrein in the synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Tissue kallikrein is an enzyme that forms the vasoactive peptide kallidin from an endogenous substrate L-kininogen. Tissue kallikrein has been identified in joint fluids and in inflammatory infiltrates within synovial membranes. It is suggested that tissue kallikrein and kinins have an important role in synovitis and joint damage. Immunoreactive tissue kallikrein and amidase activity were both ...

Gene expression and activity of cartilage degrading glycosidases in human rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis synovial fibroblasts

INTRODUCTION Similar to matrix metalloproteinases, glycosidases also play a major role in cartilage degradation. Carbohydrate cleavage products, generated by these latter enzymes, are released from degrading cartilage during arthritis. Some of the cleavage products (such as hyaluronate oligosaccharides) have been shown to bind to Toll-like receptors and provide endogenous danger signals, while ...

Determination of cytokines in synovial fluids: correlation with diagnosis and histomorphological characteristics of synovial tissue.

In a study aimed at correlating cytokine levels in synovial fluid with the pathology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta and interferon gamma were immunoassayed in 27 patients with RA, 16 patients with other arthritides, 23 with osteoarthritis, 13 patients with trauma, and 18 patients at necropsy without inflammatory disease and not known to have had j...

Urocortin in the synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Urocortin is a newly identified member of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) neuropeptide family, and is known to be involved in the modulation of the inflammatory process. We examined the expression of urocortin, CRF and their receptors (CRF receptor; CRF-R) in the synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in order to study the possible biological roles of urocortin. Syn...
