In the K/BxN arthritis mouse model, Nr1h2/3−/− animals showed exacerbated arthritis, histologic inflammation and joint destruction, and increased synovial metalloproteases, IL-1β and CCL2 in joints compared with wild-type animals. In FLS from RA patients, LXR agonists inhibited cell proliferation and collagenase activity in response to TNF, chemokine-induced migration, and CXCL12 production. Abstract The role of … Read more
