Does intramuscular gold decrease cytokine expression and macrophage numbers in the rheumatoid synovial membrane?
The results suggest that gold may suppress RA disease activity by diminishing MONO and MAC numbers and consequently monokine production in the SM.
P-suPAR concentrations are elevated in AAP and correlate with the severity of the disease. These results suggest that P-suPAR may have potential to serve as a novel prognostic marker for AAP severity on admission.
