Figure 3From: The PI3K–NF-κB signal transduction pathway is involved in mediating the anti-inflammatory effect of IB-MECA in adjuvant-induced arthritisWestern blot analysis of the A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) in synovial cells, drain lymph node (DLN) cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMNC) protein extracts. (a) A3AR expression in synovial tissue derived from untreated and IB-MECA-treated adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) rats. (b) A3AR expression in DLN cells from naïve, vehicle-treated, and IB-MECA-treated AIA rats. (c) PBMNC derived from naïve, vehicle-treated, and IB-MECA-treated AIA rats.Back to article page
