Two birds one stone strategy to treat both joint pain and cognitive impairment in rheumatoid arthritis
by Institute for Basic Science The inflammatory response of RA causes autophagy in FLSs to produce putrescine, which intensifies inflammation of GABA and H2O2 through the MAO-B in the joint. In chronic inflammation, increased IL-1β passes through a loose blood-brain barrier and enters the brain. Increased IL-1β in the hippocampus causes cognitive impairment by activating astrocytes...
