Pharmacological inhibition of TAK1, with the selective inhibitor takinib, alleviates clinical manifestation of arthritis in CIA mice

Abstract: ObjectivesTo examine the ability of takinib, a selective transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) inhibitor, to reduce the severity of murine type II collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), and to affect function of synovial cells.MethodsFollowing the induction of CIA, mice were treated daily with takinib (50 mg/kg) and clinical scores assessed. Thirty-six days post-CIA induction, histology was performed on various joints of treated and vehicle-treated animals. Inflammation, pannus, cartilage damage… Show more

“…CIA is the most extensively studied model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), mainly involving distal joints (especially the posterior ankle joint) (Wu et al, 2015). Its pathological features are similar to those of RA, including synovial hyperplasia, inflammatory cell infiltration, and cartilage destruction (Scarneo et al, 2019;De et al, 2020). Col II is the major protein in the cartilage of joints targeted by RA, and anti-Col II autoantibodies are present in the serum of RA patients, which indicates that Col II can induce an autoimmune response of an arthritic nature in the body (Manivel et al, 2015).…”

“…In order to further elucidate whether TLR4 signalling was individually-biased to bacterial LPS in this scenario, we utilised pharmacological interventions to alter TLR-specific intracellular signalling proteins mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 7 (MAPK7 also known as TAK1) and TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1). TAKANIB and MRT67307 have been well documented to prevent activation of these kinases in a highly-selective and controlled manner, thus we sought to use these agents to distinguish the activation pathways of TLR4, and ultimate phosphorylation of p65 or IRF3, respectively 21 , 22 .…”

“…Bone resorption, ankle inflammation, and ankle cartilage damage were scored as previously described [ 27 , 31 ] with the addition of 0.5, reflecting very minimal resorption affecting only marginal zones and only a few joints, minimal focal inflammation, and very minimal decrease in toluidine blue staining affecting only marginal zones, respectively. Ankle pannus was scored as previously described [ 32 ], and ankle periosteal new bone formation (measured at 16× magnification) was scored according to the following criteria: 0 = normal (no periosteal proliferation); 0.5 = minimal focal or multifocal proliferation (width measures < 127 μm [1–2 U] at any location); 1 = minimal multifocal proliferation (width at any location measures 127–252 μm [3–4 U]; 2 = mild multifocal proliferation on tarsals, diffuse in some locations, width at any location 253–441 μm [5–7 U]; 3 = moderate multifocal proliferation on tarsals, diffuse in most other locations, width at any location measures 442–630 μm [8–10 U]; 4 = marked multifocal proliferation on tarsals, diffuse at most other locations, width at any location measures 631–819 μm [11–13 U]; and 5 = severe, multifocal proliferation on tarsals, diffuse at most other locations, width at any location measures > 819 μm [> 13 U] [ 25 , 33 ].…”

Rat anti-collagen type II (CII) immunoglobulin G (IgG) was quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (Chondrex, Inc., Redmond, WA) following the manufacturer's instructions.…”
