ABSTRACT
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic degenerative disease that causes joint inflammation, cartilage destruction and systemic manifestations such as anemia, fatigue and osteoporosis. IL-6 plays a major role in the pathogenesis of RA; this interleukin is easily found in the sinovial fluid and causes local and systemic effects. IL-6 is activated by its receptors: IL-6R, predominantly in the hepatocyte, and sIL-6R (soluble interleukine-6 receptor), where IL-6 binds and homodimerizes with glycoprotein 130 subunit and induces signal transduction. The presence of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGT) contributes to the formation of pannus. High levels of IL-6 cause major synthesis of acute-phase proteins (like PCR), stimulate the production of hepcidin, develop fatigue through the stimulation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis, and promote osteoporosis, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular risk.
