Regulatory role of interleukin 10 in joint inflammation and cartilage destruction in murine streptococcal cell wall (SCW) arthritis. More therapeutic benefit with IL-4/IL-10 combination therapy than with IL-10 treatment aloneE Lubberts
Department of Rheumatology, University Hospital Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Cytokine 10:361-9. 1998..In conclusion, the data is consistent with a dominant role of IL-10 in natural suppression of arthritis expression, whereas combined treatment with IL-4 and IL-10 appears to be of potential therapeutic value...
Overexpression of IL-17 in the knee joint of collagen type II immunized mice promotes collagen arthritis and aggravates joint destructionE Lubberts
UMC St Radboud, Rheumatology Research Lab, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Inflamm Res 51:102-4. 2002
IL-1-independent role of IL-17 in synovial inflammation and joint destruction during collagen-induced arthritisE Lubberts
Rheumatology Research Laboratory, Department of Rheumatology, University Medical Center St Radboud, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
J Immunol 167:1004-13. 2001..These findings suggest IL-17 to be a novel target for the treatment of destructive arthritis and may have implications for tissue destruction in other autoimmune diseases...
IL-4 gene therapy for collagen arthritis suppresses synovial IL-17 and osteoprotegerin ligand and prevents bone erosionE Lubberts
Rheumatology Research Laboratory, Department of Rheumatology, University Hospital Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
J Clin Invest 105:1697-710. 2000..IL-4 also enhanced synthesis of type I procollagen, suggesting that it promoted tissue repair. These findings may have significant implications for the prevention of bone erosion in arthritis...
Intra-articular IL-10 gene transfer regulates the expression of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in the knee and ipsilateral pawE Lubberts
Rheumatology Research Laboratory, Department of Rheumatology, University Hospital Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Clin Exp Immunol 120:375-83. 2000..These data indicate that local over-expression of IL-10 in the knee joint of mice regulates the expression of collagen arthritis, probably through down-regulation of TNF-alpha...
Adenoviral vector-mediated overexpression of IL-4 in the knee joint of mice with collagen-induced arthritis prevents cartilage destructionE Lubberts
Rheumatology Research Lab, Department of Rheumatology, University Hospital Nijmegen, The Netherlands
J Immunol 163:4546-56. 1999..Our data show an impressive cartilage-protective effect of local IL-4 and underline the feasibility of local gene therapy with this cytokine in arthritis...
Protection against cartilage and bone destruction by systemic interleukin-4 treatment in established murine type II collagen-induced arthritisL A Joosten
Department of Rheumatology, University Hospital Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Arthritis Res 1:81-91. 1999..Furthermore, it was demonstrated that exposure to IL-4 during the immunization stage reduced onset and severity of CIA. However, after cessation of IL-4 treatment disease expression increased to control values...
Th17 cells, but not Th1 cells, from patients with early rheumatoid arthritis are potent inducers of matrix metalloproteinases and proinflammatory cytokines upon synovial fibroblast interaction, including autocrine interleukin-17A productionJ P van Hamburg
Department of Rheumatology, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Arthritis Rheum 63:73-83. 2011..The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the functional role of Th17 cells in early RA...
An IFN-gamma-independent proinflammatory role of IL-18 in murine streptococcal cell wall arthritisL A Joosten
Rheumatology Research Laboratory and Department of Internal Medicine, University Medical Center St Radboud, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
J Immunol 165:6553-8. 2000..The present study indicates that IL-18 is a proinflammatory cytokine during the onset of murine SCW arthritis, and this inflammatory role of IL-18 is IFN-gamma independent...
Therapeutic effect of neutralizing endogenous IL-18 activity in the collagen-induced model of arthritisC Plater-Zyberk
Serono Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Geneva, Switzerland. Rheumatology Research Laboratory, University Medical Center Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
J Clin Invest 108:1825-32. 2001..IL-18 neutralizing antibody or rhIL-18BP could therefore represent new disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs that warrant testing in clinical trials in patients with rheumatoid arthritis...
Local overexpression of adeno-viral IL-4 protects cartilage from metallo proteinase-induced destruction during immune complex-mediated arthritis by preventing activation of pro-MMPsP L E M van Lent
Department of Rheumatology, University Medical Centre Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Osteoarthritis Cartilage 10:234-43. 2002..To determine whether IL-4 protects against metalloproteinase-induced cartilage destruction during immune complex mediated arthritis and to elucidate its mechanism...

Ann Rheum Dis 69:337-44. 2010..To review the diagnostic and prognostic value of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) in rheumatoid arthritis, taking into account the already available serology...
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 modulates Th17 polarization and interleukin-22 expression by memory T cells from patients with early rheumatoid arthritisE M Colin
Erasmus MC, University Medical Center, Department of Rheumatology, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Arthritis Rheum 62:132-42. 2010..To examine the immunologic mechanism by which 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25[OH](2)D(3)) may prevent corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with a focus on T cell biology...
IL-17 derived from juxta-articular bone and synovium contributes to joint degradation in rheumatoid arthritisM Chabaud
