Abstract:
With the development of economy and medicine, chronic diseases have become a more and more prominent problem affecting children′s physical and mental development.Juvenile idiopathic arthritis(JIA)is a common rheumatic disease in children.As an important medium of immune response, cytokines play a role in systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis(SJIA)and its complication such as macrophage activation syndrome(MAS), which has attracted more and more attention.Many studies have found that a variety of cytokines play an inflammatory or anti-inflammatory role in the occurrence and development of SJIA and MAS.Therefore, this paper summarizes the specific mechanism of action and clinical significance of related cytokines in SJIA and MAS, and reviews the progress of related drug therapy targeting cytokines.By exploring the pathogenesis of SJIA, we hope to provide theoretical basis for identifying new therapeutic targets.
