Abstract:
Objective To study the molecular mechanism of activator protein (AP)-1 and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1? in adjuvant arthritis and the effects of sodium arsenite (SA) on AP-1 and MIP-1. Methods Forty Wistar female rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: normal control (NC), model (M), low concentration sodium arsenite (SA1) and high concentration sodium arsenite group (SA2). The SA1 group and the SA2 group were treated with sodium arsenite (0.5 mg?kg-1?d-1 and 1.0 mg?kg-1?d-1) through abdominal cavity injection for 20 days, the normal control group and the model group were treated with saline (0.2 ml/d). The levels of C reactive protein (CRP) in every group were determined by biochemistry, the C-fos and MIP-1? expression of synovium in 4 groups were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results The levels of CRP in the M group were increased more than NC group (P
