Summary

[edit]
Description Figure 3. Hypothetical contribution of EMT-like process to the pathophysiology of RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis). Upon stimuli such as inflammation (IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-17) or hypoxia, several signaling pathways become activated in normal FLS present in the synovial lining. These EMT signaling pathways culminate with the production of several EMT-related TFs such as SNAI1, HIF-1α and Runx1 leading to the acquisition of more mesenchymal features. These activated FLS called RA-FLS gain migratory and invasive properties together with an increased resistance to apoptosis resulting in the generation of hyperplastic synovial lining. Abbreviations: AKT: protein kinase B; α-SMA: α-smooth muscle actin; CIA: collagen-induced arthritis; EMT: epithelial-mesenchymal transition; HIF1α: hypoxia-inducible factor 1α; IL: interleukin; MMPs: matrix metalloproteases; mTOR: mammalian target of rapamycin; NF-κB: nuclear factor-κB; PI3K: phosphoinositide 3-kinase; RA: rheumatoid arthritis; RA-FLSs: RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes; RUNX1: runt-related transcription factor 1; SMAD: homolog of the Drosophila protein, mothers against decapentaplegic (Mad) and the Caenorhabditis elegans protein Sma; SNAI1: Snail family transcriptional repressor 1; TFs: transcription factors; TGF-β: transforming growth factor-β; TNF: tumor necrosis factor.
