The effects of MDP, a potent inducer of cytokines, were studied in four batches of Wistar Furth rats with established experimental arthritis. Arthritic rats were given a daily sc injection of 10, 100, 200 or 400 micrograms MDP respectively. Muramyl dipeptide increased the severity of clinical events in a dose-dependent manner, with the exception of the 10 micrograms dose which was ineffective. The levels of anti-collagen antibodies were not however significantly enhanced by MDP. Radiological lesions and histological changes were maximal at high dosage regimens. Paradoxically, the acute phase reactive alpha 1 glycoprotein was little affected by MDP treatment.
在四组已患实验性关节炎的Wistar Furth大鼠中,研究了细胞因子强效诱导剂MDP的作用。分别给患关节炎的大鼠每日皮下注射10、100、200或400微克MDP。除10微克剂量无效外,胞壁酰二肽以剂量依赖方式增加了临床事件的严重程度。然而,MDP并未显著提高抗胶原蛋白抗体的水平。在高剂量方案下,放射学损伤和组织学变化最为明显。矛盾的是,急性期反应性α1糖蛋白受MDP治疗的影响很小。
