The gene expression of FoxP3, Sema-3A, and Nrp-1 was significantly lower in pre-treated RA patients than in controls (P < 0.001). Compared with that in pre-treatment RA patients, the gene expression of FoxP3, Sema-3A, and Nrp-1 in DMARDs-treated RA patients was strongly increased (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, and P < 0.01, respectively). There was a positive correlation between Sema-3A gene expression and the gene expression of FoxP3 (r = 0.292, P < 0.01) and Nrp-1 (r = 0.569, P < 0.0001).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Conventional DMARDs therapy effectively reduces disease activity and inflammation in newly diagnosed RA patients by increasing FoxP3, Sema-3A, and Nrp-1 gene expression.</p>","PeriodicalId":13551,"journal":{"name":"Inflammopharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"3687-3695"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142132623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
