Evasin-3 inhibits neutrophil recruitment and ameliorates inflammation and functionality in a mouse model of antigen-induced arthritis. (a–g) Reduction of inflammation in mBSA induced arthritis by Evasin-3 (1 μg per animal). (a) Inhibition of total cell accumulation in the synovial cavity. (b) Inhibition of neutrophil infiltration into the knee joint. (c) Reduction of hypernociception induced by intraarticular antigen challenge of immunized mice. (d) Reduction of TNF-α production in periarticular tissues. (e) Inhibition of adhesion of leukocytes to synovial microvessels as assessed by intravital microscopy. (f and g) Histological evaluation of the tissue sections form the knee joint. All parameters were evaluated 24 h after antigen challenge, and there were 6 mice per group in each experiment. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01. Error bars represent the mean ± SEM. Bars, 100 μm.
