Abstract:
The activation of MAPKs signal transduction parthways, is a typical feature of chronic synovitis in rheumatoid arthritis. The phosphorylation of synoviocytes cytoplasm proteins induced transcription factor and nucleus proteins phosphorylation such as c-fos, c-jun, AP-1 and NF-?B via MAPKs signal transduction, which promotes synoviocytes proliferation and activation. These findings may be beneficial for the elucidation of the pathogenesis and the development of new drugs for rheumatoid arthritis.
