Abstract The overgrowth of synovial tissues is critical in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis RA . The expression of Synoviolin SYN an E3 ubiquitin ligase is upregulated in arthritic synovial fibroblasts and is involved in the overgrowth of synovial cells during RA. However the molecular mechanisms involved in the elevated SYN expression are not known. Here we found that SYN expression is elevated in the synovial fibroblasts from mice with collagen-induced arthritis CIA . The proinflammatory cytokines interleukin IL -1P and tumor necrosis factor-a TNF-a induce SYN expression in mouse synovial fibroblasts. Cultivation of mouse synovial fibroblasts with IL-1P activates mitogen-activated protein kinases including extra-cellular signal-regulated kinase Erk JNK c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 while .
