  1. Comparisons were done between 2 mg/4 mg Cab4 and 2 mg/4 mg anti-CII or between 2 mg/4 mg Cab3 and 2 mg/4 mg anti-CII in regard to max arthritis score. Significant difference was observed between 2 mg Cab4 and 2 mg anti-CII after LPS injection. Cab4: M2139 ± L10D9 ± 15A11 ± ACC1; Cab3: M2139 ± L10D9 ± 15A11; anti-CII: M2139 ± UL1 ± CIIC1 ± CIIC2. 2 mg Cab4 vs 2 mg anti-CII: *p < 0.05. The one-way ANOVA with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test was used to calculate the level of significance
