AbstractObjectiveTo determine whether genetic variants of the interferon
regulatory factor 5 (IRF‐5) and Tyk‐2 genes are associated with rheumatoid
arthritis (RA).MethodsFive single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IRF5 and 3
SNPs in Tyk2 were analyzed in a Swedish cohort of 1,530 patients with RA and 881
controls. A replication study was performed in a Dutch cohort of 387 patients
with RA and 1... hiện toàn bộ
The modulation of matrix metalloproteinase and ADAM gene expression in human chondrocytes by interleukin‐1 and oncostatin M: A time‐course study using real‐time quantitative reverse transcription–polymerase chain reactionWiley - Tập 46 Số 4 - Trang 961-967 - 2002

AbstractObjectivePrevious studies have reported elevated levels of interleukin‐1
(IL‐1) and oncostatin M (OSM) in rheumatoid joints, as well as the synergistic
degradation of human articular cartilage by this cytokine combination. The
present study was undertaken to investigate the ability of IL‐1 and OSM to
modulate gene expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), ADAM, and ADAM‐TS
(ADAM with t... hiện toàn bộ
Expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (96‐kd gelatinase B) in human rheumatoid arthritisWiley - Tập 39 Số 9 - Trang 1576-1587 - 1996
D Ahrens, A. Koch, Richard M. Pope, M Stein-Picarella, Michael J. Niedbala
AbstractObjective. To determine the expression of matrix metalloproteinase
9/gelatinase B (MMP‐9) in synovial fluid (SF), plasma, and synovial tissue from
individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammatory arthritis (IA), and
osteoarthritis (OA), using specific monoclonal antibody reagents.Methods.
Gelatinolytic activity in the SF and plasma of patients with RA, IA, and OA was
assessed by ge... hiện toàn bộ
Increased serum matrix metalloproteinase 9 levels in systemic lupus erythematosus patients with neuropsychiatric manifestations and brain magnetic resonance imaging abnormalitiesWiley - Tập 50 Số 3 - Trang 858-865 - 2004

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate whether serum matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP‐9)
levels are associated with neuropsychiatric manifestations, particularly
cognitive dysfunction, as evaluated by neuropsychological testing and brain
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities in patients with systemic lupus
erythematosus (SLE).MethodsMMP‐9 determinations were made in 44 patients with
SLE and 43 healt... hiện toàn bộ
Association of the PD‐1.3A allele of the PDCD1 gene in patients with rheumatoid arthritis negative for rheumatoid factor and the shared epitopeWiley - Tập 50 Số 6 - Trang 1770-1773 - 2004
Ludmila Prokunina‐Olsson, Leonid Padyukov, Anna M. Bennet, Ulf dé Fairé, Björn Wiman, Jonathan A. Prince, Lars Alfredsson, Lars Klareskog, Marta E. Alarcón‐Riquelme
AbstractObjectiveTo study the frequency of allele A of polymorphism PD‐1.3 of
the PDCD1 gene in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its subsets, based
on the presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and the shared epitope (SE)
alleles.MethodsA total of 1,175 patients with RA and 3,404 controls were
genotyped for the PD‐1.3 A/G polymorphism, which previously was identified as
being involved in su... hiện toàn bộ
Sclerostin antibody treatment enhances bone strength but does not prevent growth retardation in young mice treated with dexamethasoneWiley - Tập 63 Số 8 - Trang 2385-2395 - 2011
Massimo Marenzana, Kevin Greenslade, AdrianL.W.F. Eddleston, Remi Okoye, Daniel Marshall, A R Moore, Martyn K. Robinson
AbstractObjectiveExposure to supraphysiologic levels of glucocorticoid drugs is
known to have detrimental effects on bone formation and linear growth. Patients
with sclerosteosis lack the bone regulatory protein sclerostin, have excessive
bone formation, and are typically above average in height. This study was
undertaken to characterize the effects of a monoclonal antibody to sclerostin
(Scl‐AbI)... hiện toàn bộ
