Anti-proliferation and anti-migration effects of an aqueous extract of <i>Cinnamomi ramulus</i> on MH7A rheumatoid arthritis-derived fibroblast-like synoviocytes through induction of apoptosis, cell arrest and suppression of matrix metalloproteinase

Abstract

The anti-RA effect of ACR may be attributed to its anti-proliferative and anti-migration effects on synovial fibroblasts. These data suggest that <i>Cinnamomi ramulus</i> may have therapeutic value for the treatment of RA.
