β-arrestin-2 alleviates rheumatoid arthritis injury by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation and NF- κB pathway in Macrophages

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disorder that inflicts damage to the joints of the hands and wrist. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of β-Arrestin-2 (βArr2) on RA in vivo and in vitro. The βArr2 adenovirus (βArr2-Ad) or the control (Con-Ad) was...

The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of β-Arrestin-2 (βArr2) on RA in vivo and in vitro. The βArr2 adenovirus (βArr2-Ad) or the control (Con-Ad) was injected into the ankle joint cavity of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice.

Correspondingly, the inflammatory response was attenuated, as evidenced by the decreased serum pro-inflammatory cytokines levels and NF-κB pathway-related proteins. Nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain containing receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation was inhibited in CIA mice treated with βArr2-Ad injection, as reflected by the diminished IL-18 level and declined protein levels of ankle inflammasome components in the ankle joint. Likewise, the anti-inflammatory effect of macrophages was also validated by in vitro experiments. In summary, βArr2 effectively ameliorates ankle inflammation in CIA mice via NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome, providing theoretical and clinical basis for RA therapy.
