Disruption of the balance between proteases and protease inhibitors is often associated with pathologic tissue destruction. To explore the therapeutic potential of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) in erosive joint diseases, we cloned, sequenced, and expressed active rat SLPI, which shares the protease-reactive site found in human SLPI. In a rat streptococcal cell wall (SCW)-induced model of inflammatory erosive polyarthritis, endogenous SLPI was unexpectedly upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels in inflamed joint tissues. Systemic delivery of purified recombinant rat SLPI inhibited joint inflammation and cartilage and bone destruction. Inflammatory pathways as reflected by circulating tumor necrosis factor
and nuclear factor
B activation and cartilage resorption detected by circulating levels of type II collagen collagenase-generated cleavage products were all diminished by SLPI treatment in acute and chronic arthritis, indicating that the action of SLPI may extend beyond inhibition of serine proteases.
Key Words: inflammation cartilage resorption serine protease inhibitor
1used in this paper: AI, severity of arthritis; NF, nuclear factor; PM, peritoneal macrophage; SCW, streptococcal cell wall; SLPI, secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor
