Abstract:Background and Purpose: Azithromycin (AZM) is a macrolide antibiotic
with well-described anti-inflammatory properties. This study aimed to
substantiate its treatment potential in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Experimental Approach: Gene expression profiles were collected by
RNA-sequencing and the effects of AZM were assessed in functional
assays. In vitro and vivo assays for examining the blockade of
glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) actions by AZM: assays for defining
the anti-inflammatory activity of AZM usin… Show more
