摘要: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has been found to act as a potent anti-inflammatory factor through regulating the production of both anti- and pro-inflammatory mediators promoting Th2-type responses. In this study, we used Chicken collagen II-induced experimental arthritis (CIA) model in Wistar rats investigate potential effects VIP on rheumatoid arthritis. Our results showed that vivo treatment CIA-induced with had great protective benefit at clinical histological levels. Disease suppression was associated inhibition T cells proliferation, shifting immune response toward expanded CD4+CD25+ Treg periphery, which inhibited autoreactive cell activation/expansion. conclusion, study provides evidence effect CIA its actions pathogenic cells.
