In the present study, we investigated the effect of interleukin-4 (IL-4) on metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1/tissue collagenase) production in human rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts. Northern blot analysis revealed that addition of IL-4 with or without histamine stimulated the cells to increase the amount of proMMP-1 mRNA, and the IL-4 with histamine addition resulted in a 3.3-fold increase compared with histamine only. Furthermore, IL-4 itself stimulated the expression of histamine H1 receptor mRNA. These results suggest that IL-4 may play an important role in joint destruction in RA.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011969 Receptors, Histamine H1 A class of histamine receptors discriminated by their pharmacology and mode of action. Most histamine H1 receptors operate through the inositol phosphate/diacylglycerol second messenger system. Among the many responses mediated by these receptors are smooth muscle contraction, increased vascular permeability, hormone release, and cerebral glyconeogenesis.

D001172 Arthritis, Rheumatoid A chronic systemic disease, primarily of the joints, marked by inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures, widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues, and by atrophy and rarefaction of bony structures. Etiology is unknown, but autoimmune mechanisms have been implicated. Rheumatoid Arthritis
D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
