Cationic Amino Acid Transporter-1 (CAT-1) Promotes Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes Proliferation and Cytokine Secretion by Taking Up L-Arginine in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Abstract: Background: Abnormal proliferation of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) in the synovial lining layer is the primary cause of synovial hyperplasia and joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Currently, the relationship between metabolic abnormalities and FLS proliferation is a new focus of investigation. However, little is known regarding the relationship between amino acid metabolism and RA. Methods: The concentrations of amino acids and cytokines in the synovial fluid of RA (n=9) and osteoarthritis … Show more
