Abstract

Introduction: Cytokine expression and regulation may yield effective therapeutic targets in rheumatoid arthritis. Pathogenesis reveals (arguably) the most inclusive study of pathologic cytokine function in a chronic inflammatory disease in recent years. Presence of IL-1, IL-6, TNF alpha, chemokines (e.g., IL-8) and GM-CSF has been reported in patients with rheumatoid arthritis irrespective of curative therapy. They must be produced de novo in response to an immune stimulus. Generally act over short distances and short time spans and at very low concentration. India does not have a national rheumatoid arthritis surveillance system
