Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed at 21, 28, 35, and 42 days to detect IgG4 and IL-21 in the serum, followed by histological and immunohistochemical analyses of IgG4 and IL-21r in the ankle joint of rats.Results: The contents of IgG4 and IL-21 in the serum of the CIA model group were positively correlated and increased with disease progression. The expression of IgG4 and IL-21 receptors in the ankle joint of the CIA model group was significantly higher than that in the control group. These proteins were closely related to the pathological score. The serum IL-21 level in the model group was closely related to the level of IL-21 receptor in the ankle joint.Conclusion: IL-21 may promote the occurrence and development of rheumatoid arthritis by combining with IL-21r to regulate the content of IgG4.Keywords: rheumatoid arthritis, immunoglobulin, interleukin, interleukin receptorLong ZYZhou YFYuan HPeng YMWu SXPeng FDove Medical Pressarticlerheumatoid arthritisimmunoglobulininterleukininterleukin receptorPathologyRB1-214Therapeutics.
