Abstract
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are chronic joint diseases with distinct pathophysiological mechanisms, but both involve alterations in immune parameters. This research investigates the alterations in several immune parameters, specifically adiponectin (ADP), antinuclear antibodies (ANA), interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT-4), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF Alpha), in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). Also, the current study aims to identify the changes occurring in the physiological and immune parameters of people suffering from rheumatic diseases, as Evaluation of Immunological Inflammatory biomarkers levels ADP, ANA, IL1, IL6, IL8, STAT-4 and TNF-α. Material & Methods: A cross-sectional laboratory-based study with 90 patient’s participant was conducted. Using ELISA kits and laboratory tests, various biomarkers (Immunological Inflammatory biomarkers levels ADP, ANA, IL1, IL6, IL8, STAT-4 and TNF-α were measured among rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis patients. Results: The findings revealed elevated levels of IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, STAT-4, and TNF Alpha in RA patients, reflecting a heightened inflammatory state. In contrast, OA patients exhibited a more moderate increase in these parameters, suggesting differing immune activation pathways. ADP and ANA levels showed distinct variations between the two patient groups, indicating their potential roles in the pathogenesis and progression of RA and OA. Conclusion: These results contribute to a better understanding of the immune mechanisms underlying RA and OA, highlighting the importance of targeted therapeutic strategies to manage these conditions effectively. Further research is recommended to explore the clinical implications of these findings and develop personalized treatment approaches.
