Abstract：
OBJECTIVES:This paper aims to explore the functional significance of the P2X7 receptor in preclinical models of rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS:Preclinical studies in vivo were performed using the rat streptococcal cell wall (SCW) arthritis model. Ex vivo cultures of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/benzoylbenzoyl adenosine triphosphate (BzATP)-stimulated human monocytes were generated to test the activities of a novel, highly specific inhibitor of human P2X7, AZD9056, on interleukin (IL)-1 and IL-18 release. RESULTS:P2X7 receptor expression was detected in inflamed synovial tissue after onset of SCW-induced arthritis in rats. Inhibition of P2X7 therein led to reduced articular inflammation and erosive progression. No effect was noted on acute-phase responses. Ex vivo, AZD9056 inhibited IL-1 and IL-18 release to BzATP in LPS-primed human monocytes. CONCLUSIONS:P2X7 receptor inhibition could represent a novel approach to the treatment of inflammatory arthritis. However, confirmatory clinical studies are warranted to further explore this possibility.
