| Abstract | AIM: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the synovium resulting in the destruction of affected joint cartilage and bone structures. Etanercept is a biological agent that blocks the tumor necrosis factor- (TNF- )-mediated inflammatory processes in RA patients, and has a regenerative effect on cartilage. In order to identify novel disease-related proteins and candidate biomarkers, we performed proteomic profiling of the serum in patients with RA who were treated with etanercept. METHOD: Serum samples were obtained from eight RA patients before and after etanercept treatment. The low molecular weight proteins in the serum were concentrated and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The results before and after etanercept treatment were compared by the spectrum count method. RESULTS: Among a total of 477 proteins identified, 12 were found to be decreased and five were increased by etanercept treatment. Some of the changed proteins were known to be related to RA, and most of the other changed proteins may play possible roles in the TNF- signaling pathway or the state of cartilage and extracellular matrix. CONCLUSION: The present proteomic study identified several proteins that could be involved in the pathogenesis of RA. These findings could thus lead to the identification of novel candidate disease-related protein biomarkers for RA, or indicate new targets for therapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
