Recombinant human interleukin‐1 β–induced increase in levels of proteoglycans, stromelysin, and leukocytes in rabbit synovial fluid

Abstract

Taken together, the data suggest that there is a coordinate increase in SF stromelysin and proteoglycan levels in rabbits injected with IL-1, and that leukocytes play a minimal role in the accumulation of proteoglycans and stromelysin in the SF.
