Measurement of interleukin-33 (IL-33) and IL-33 receptors (sST2 and ST2L) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

TL;DR: IL-33 is involved in the pathogenesis of RA and may reflect the degree of inflammation in patients with RA, and the levels of IL-33, sST2 and C-reactive protein decreased after conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs treatment in 10 patients with treatment-naïve RA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coenzyme Q10 ameliorates pain and cartilage degradation in a rat model of osteoarthritis by regulating nitric oxide and inflammatory cytokines.

TL;DR: CoQ10 exerts a therapeutic effect on OA via pain suppression and cartilage degeneration by inhibiting inflammatory mediators, which play a vital role in OA pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The change of bone mineral density according to treatment agents in patients with ankylosing spondylitis

TL;DR: The BMDs of AS patients increased more by the treatment of concurrent bisphosphonate and anti-TNF-α agents, and the gain of bone mass was associated with the reduction of inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grape Seed Proanthocyanidin Extract–Mediated Regulation of STAT3 Proteins Contributes to Treg Differentiation and Attenuates Inflammation in a Murine Model of Obesity-Associated Arthritis

TL;DR: GSPE functions as a reciprocal regulator of T cell differentiation – suppression of Th17 cells and induction of Tregs in both DIO and obese CIA mice and may act as a therapeutic agent to treat immunologic diseases related with enhanced STAT3 activity such as metabolic disorders and autoimmune diseases.
