The regulation of MMPs by inflammatory cytokines, and the expression of MMP-9 in macrophages and vascular structures have previously suggested that MMP-9 may be associated with the synovial inflammation and neovascularization [ 35, 36].
Other disease-related terms include 'Precancerous conditions' (11,8), 'Pulmonary fibrosis' (5,5; a condition involving chronic inflammation and progressive fibrosis of the pulmonary alveolar walls), and 'Systemic scleroderma' (4,6; characterized by hardening of affected tissues).
More specifically, MCP-1 [ 2, 16], MCP-3 [ 2, 18], eotaxin [ 16, 18], pulmonary and activation-related chemokine (PARC) [ 19], and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) [ 15] have been identified as mediators of pulmonary inflammation in asthma or relevant animal models.
The antigen-induced arthritis model of rheumatoid arthritis in rabbits demonstrates persistent active inflammation for several months after the intra-articular injection of antigen, including hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the synovial lining cells, pannus formation with articular cartilage erosion, and chronic infiltration of synovium by lymphocytes and plasma cells [ 13 ] . In addition, Dijkstra and colleagues [ 15 ] found macrophages in the superficial layer of the synovium, where they might secrete enzymes and oxygen radicals into the joint space, which can lead to cartilage erosion [ 9 ] . The protein levels in lavage fluid from arthritic joints in this model are low enough to allow direct testing by Western blot analysis without immunoaffinity purification, as was needed with the human aspirates.
Despite physiologic evidence that ROIs play a central role in tissue injury during inflammation, it is possible that elevated TBARS occur secondary to other mechanisms of hepatocellular injury [ 30, 31].
