Arthritis infectious

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown aetiology with some autoimmune features. Current thinking favours the hypothesis that interplay between genetic factors, sex hormones, and possibly an infectious agent or another immune activating agent initiates an autoimmune pathogenic mechanism that culminates in a disease with inflammatory and destructive features.

Similarly, under certain disease conditions, altered NA innervation and/or AR signaling capacity impairs sympathetic communication with cells of the immune system, influencing disease progression. Altered catecholamine communication with the immune system is evident in autoimmune diseases such as arthritis and multiple sclerosis [5-7] and in infectious diseases, such as leprosy and a mouse model of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome [15, 43, 44], The impact of altered NA innervation of... 

Inspite of all the qualified successes of synthetic drug research achieved in the last four decades to combat infectious diseases of the more than 80,000 different ailments, unfortunately only about one third can be treated with drugs, most of them only symptomatically. The discovery of better, effective and safer drugs is needed to fight the causes of dreadful diseases like cancer, acquired-immuno-deficiency-syndrome (AIDS), arthritis, cardio-vascular diseases, disorders of the central nervous system (CNS), such as Alzheimer s disease and other vital infectious and metabolic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. 

The modern biotechnology industry has come up with important blood products, infectious disease combatants, immunotherapy products, growth factors for mammalian cells, and monoclonal antibodies. Approximately 4600 biotechnology companies exist in the world. Over 140 biopharmaceuticals are on the market and hundreds more are in the clinic against over 200 diseases (AIDS, cardiovascular, diabetes, arthritis, cancer etc). 

The effect of the modem dmg industry on the life expectancy in the U.S. can be seen in Table 23.1. In 1900 infectious diseases accounted for 500 deaths per 100,000 Americans today the figure has dropped to 50. But many problems still face the industry, including most forms of cancer, arthritis, diabetes, senility, and viral diseases, even including the common cold. 

Indomethacin is used in rheumatoid arthritis, nonspecific infectious polyarthritis, gouty arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, arthrosis, back pain, neuralgia, myalgia, and other diseases accompanied by inflammation. Synonyms for indomethacin are, among others, metindol, indacide, and rumacide.

Indications for glucocorticosteroids include adrenal insufficiency and inflammatory, non-infectious processes of all sorts such as various types of arthritis, auto-immune diseases, asthma, inflammatory bowel diseases, especially Crohn s disease but also ulcerative colitis and further many skin diseases and some diseases of the eye. Their antimitotic activity is used in various anti-cancer chemotherapeutic regimens. They still have an important place... 

Rheumatic disease is defined as disease of connective tissue and medical disorders of the musculoskeletal system . The medical discipline concerned with these diseases is referred to as rheumatology. The majority of rheumatic diseases are soft tissue rheumatism and nonspecific low back pain (LBP), autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases, osteoarthritis (OA), osteoporosis, crystal-deposition disease and infectious arthritis. 

Infectious Arthritis comprises viral, bacterial, and fungal joint infection. Bacterial infectious arthritis should be considered an emergency for the patient... 

The risk for infectious arthritis is high in patients with autoimmune diseases with compromised immunity. Acute bacterial arthritis mostly results from hematogenous spread in the elderly and in the less than 15 years. Acute monarthritis should raise a high index of suspicion of joint infection. 

Drainage, debridement, and large volume irrigation by 3-directional arthroscopic surgery may become standard treatment for septic arthritis of the hip with concomitant intravenous antibiotics for at least 3 weeks followed by oral antibiotics for at least another 3 weeks. After infectious arthritis is eradicated a follow-up period of 1 years is advised.

Indomethacin is a useful drug for the relief of symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis in humans (98). In veterinary medicine, it is effective in the treatment of inflammatory processes related to infectious diseases. The drug is usually administered orally with drinking water. 

The cysteine proteases cathepsin B, L, K, and S are involved in diseases such as osteoporosis, cancer metastasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and infectious diseases [352-357]. Thus, the proteases became an important target for developing inhibitors as therapeutic agents [358-363]. 

As examples for the wide field of specific disease areas and mouse models, we have included type 1 and 2 diabetes (Serreze and Baribault), cardiovascular disease (Howies), arthritis (Tak), skin disorders (Sundberg), cancer (Talmadge, Surguladze, and Li), the use of behavioral models for depression and anxiety (Kalueff), neurodegenerative diseases (Janus), neuromuscular diseases (Burgess), and infectious diseases (Medina).
