Increased phosphorylation of ezrin/radixin/moesin proteins contributes to proliferation of rheumatoid fibroblast-like synoviocytes.
OBJECTIVES Increasing evidence indicates that ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) proteins may play a critical role in cell proliferation. This study examined the role of ERM proteins in proliferation of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) from patients with RA. METHODS Synovial tissues (STs) were obtained from 18 RA and 6 OA patients. The expression of ERM and its phosphorylated proteins in cultured F...
متن کاملThe synovial proteome: analysis of fibroblast-like synoviocytes
The present studies were initiated to determine the protein expression patterns of fibroblast-like synovial (FLS) cells derived from the synovia of rheumatoid arthritis patients. The cellular proteins were separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the in-gel digested proteins were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. A total of 368...
متن کاملHypericin-photodynamic therapy inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in human rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes cell line MH7A
Objective(s): To elucidate the effects and potential mechanisms of hypericin-photodynamic therapy (HYP-PDT) for treating the human rheumatoid arthritis (RA) fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS) MH7A cell-line. Materials and Methods: MH7A cells were subjected to HYP-PDT intervention and apoptosis was evaluated via MTT, nuclear staining, and flowcytometry analyses. Intracellular reactive oxygen spec...
متن کاملSimvastatin Induces Apoptosis of Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes
BACKGROUND Statins (3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors) exert favorable effects on lipoprotein metabolism, but appeared to possess anti-inflammatory properties among others, as suggested by their ability to inhibit collagen-induced arthritis in mice. Their activity in fibroblast-like synovial cells (FLS) has not yet been studied. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of varying d...
متن کاملEvaluation of tendon healing using fibroblast like synoviocytes in rabbits: A biomechanical study
Tendon never restores the complete biological and mechanical properties after healing. Several techniques are available for tissue-engineered biological augmentation for tendon healing like stem cells. Recently, synovium has been investigated as a source of cells for tissue engineering. In the present study, we investigated potentials of fibroblast like synoviocytes (FLSs) in tendon healing. Si...
