Systemic anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha therapy in rheumatoid arthritis down-regulates synovial tumor necrosis factor alpha synthesis.
- Abstract:
-
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothesis that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) blockade in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) diminishes synovial synthesis of TNFalpha, interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha), and IL-1beta. METHODS: Patients with active RA received a single 10 mg/kg infusion of infliximab. Multiple synovial biopsy specimens were obtained from a knee the day before infusion and 14 days later.
