Technical background
Rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoidarthritis, RA) be the chronic auto-immune disease that is main clinical manifestation with symmetry polyarthritis, the prevalence of China is 0.32%-0.36%, is to cause disability and one of disabled principal disease.
RA is a kind of infringement multiple joint of whole body, pathological characteristics is intraarticular synovitis, early stage is that synovial membrane is congested, synovial membrane loosens, the newborn fibrovascular tissue of chronic inflammatory disease rolls up, and cause synovial membrane irregular thickening, fine hair plumpness is charged in articular cavity and formed pannus, and then erosion damage ossa articularia cortex and cartilaginous tissue, cause ankylosis, deformity and afunction eventually; The course of disease is chronic, Progressive symmetric erythrokeratodermia, aggressive, treats not in time, and disease progression is rapid, and joint deformity is a kind of infringement of irreversibility.Its pathogenesis is very complicated, illustrates not yet completely so far.
A large amount of animal experiment studies is carried out to RA both at home and abroad, and has defined some comparatively ripe animal models:
(1) adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) model, this is owned by France in gross stress reaction, and lack chronic pathology process, pathological changes has certain self limiting.
(2) Collagen (CIA) arthritis model, has typical arthritis sign, and sickness rate ratio is used alone Freund's complete adjuvant injection and significantly improves, and the similar RA such as CIA model clinical symptoms, pathological change.
(3) arthritis model of egg protein induction, though this model success rate is high, has different in amynologic index and course of disease feature and RA.
(4) disease combination model, this model is not perfect, disease attribute evaluation difficulty, the problem such as stability, poor reliability, and is not adopted by clinical basic.
To sum up, CIA model is the ideal model of research and screening treatment RA medicine, and Ye Shi U.S. food Drug Administration is used for the treatment of the animal model of RA drug screening.
II Collagen Type VI (CII) is the articular cartilage specific antigen of comparatively generally acknowledging at present, the diacrisis of the monokine il-1 (IL-1) relevant to cartilage destruction, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), is the key link of osteoarthrosis morbidity.
Due to the restriction of experiment condition, the zoopery object in the past studying CIA model is generally limited to rat, mice etc., and primate is relatively less, but the animals such as rat are huge with mankind's difference after all.Small animal model can not simulate pathogenic process and the lesion degree of people RA very well, can not describe increasing the weight of and alleviating of the state of an illness.In addition, the existing derivant used in structure CIA model is due to immunoreation limitation, and inflammatory reaction is held time shorter, still well can not simulate clinical symptoms and the pathological change of rheumatoid arthritis.
