TLDR
Light is shed on the anti-inflammatory mechanism of phytocompounds by targeting IL-17 and IL-D for effective treatment of RA through in silico investigations using Patch Dock algorithm.Abstract:
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune condition of the connective tissue in synovial joints, characterized by inflammation which can lead to bone and cartilage destruction. IL-17 and IL-17D cytokines produced by a number of cell types, primarily promote pro-inflammatory immune responses and negative regulator in fibroblast growth factor signalling. Thus, the promising therapeutic strategies focus on targeting these cytokines, which has led to the identification of effective inhibitors. However, several studies focused on identifying the anti-arthritic potential of natural compounds. Therefore, in the present study we undertook in silico investigations to decipher the anti-inflammatory prospective of phytocompounds by targeting IL-17 and IL-17D cytokines using Patch Dock algorithm. Additionally, IL-17 and IL-17D proteins structure were modelled and validated for molecular docking study. Further, phytocompounds based on anti-inflammatory property were subjected to Lipinski filter and ADMET properties indicated that all of these compounds showed desirable drug-like criteria. The outcome of this investigation sheds light on the anti-inflammatory mechanism of phytocompounds by targeting IL-17 and IL-D for effective treatment of RA.read more

TL;DR: This in silico study suggests that these investigated polyphenols could serve as better replacements for synthetic drugs such as allopurinol in the management of gouty arthritis.

TL;DR: A scoring system to discriminate between individuals more likely to respond to TCZ or TNF-i appears useful for identifying a better treatment at the time of selecting either an IL-6 or a TNF inhibitor.

Herbal medicine for rheumatic diseases: promises kept?
TL;DR: A broad foundation of laboratory studies suggests that many herbal products have pertinent medicinal effects for the management of diseases like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, but few high quality clinical trials have yet been carried out to substantiate the safety and efficacy of herbal medicines.
