PG - e12876 LID - 10.1111/sji.12876 [doi] AB - Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a worldwide autoimmune disease. The study of its aetiology and mechanism has always been a focus topic in medicine. This research was designed to investigate the effect of E3 ubiquitin ligase tripartite motif protein 32 (TRIM32) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We found in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) of RA patients, the expression of TRIM32 was significantly increased compared with its expression in osteoarthritis (OA) patients FLS. A widely used pro-inflammatory stimuli tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was found to promote TRIM32 expression in a time-dependent manner. Furthermore, we observed that overexpression of TRIM32 aggravated the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in FLS, silencing of TRIM32 showed the consistent results. In addition, TRIM32 was found to activate nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) signalling pathway, and TRIM32 could interact with TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) to promote the K63-linked polyubiquitination of TRAF2 in RA-FLS. In conclusion, we suggested that TRIM32 as a positive regulator of inflammatory responses in RA-FLS. CI - (c) 2020 The Scandinavian Foundation for Immunology.
