Abstract
Purpose: In many inflammation-driven diseases, blocking IL-1 signaling can be a potential strategy to help restore normal homeostasis. The modified recombinant version of IL-1RA, known by the name Anakinra, which competes with IL-1β is seen as a potential disease modifying osteoarthritis drug (DMOAD). However, as with many therapeutic proteins it shows a short half-life and loss of bioactivity. Currently, this problem is addressed by frequent injections of high doses of therapeutic proteins that is associated with unwanted side effects and patient morbidity.
