Elevated glucose metabolism is a prominent characteristic of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the efficacy inhibiting single target FLS using small molecular inhibitors limited for RA treatment. Herein, synergistic inhibition FLS' survival, proliferation, and activation by combining two inhibitors, diclofenac (DC) lonidamine (LND) was first verified. Subsequently, DC LND were individually conjugated to cystamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HA) prepare polymer-prodrug conjugates. A HAP-1 peptide-modified dual conjugates-assembled nanoparticles system (HAP-1NPDC+LND) further tailored optimal ratio targeted metabolic modulation alleviate symptoms. Upon uptake inflamed joints, HAP-1NPDC+LND released within intracellular reductive microenvironment, where hinders suppresses glycolytic enzymes eliminate synergistically. Additionally, secretion lactic pro-inflammatory factors from reduced, thereby disrupting crosstalk between macrophages. Finally, demonstrated promising mouse model collagen-induced (CIA). Overall, this research provides valuable insights into novel therapeutic strategies safe effective treatment through FLS.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by persistent inflammation, joint pain, and progressive cartilage bone erosion. Despite advancements in RA management with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) biologics, some patients remain refractory to conventional treatments. Tetracyclines, such as minocycline doxycycline, exhibit anti-inflammatory immunomodulatory properties, making them potential supplementary This narrative review explores their effectiveness, mechanisms of action, safety profiles, current challenges care. Tetracyclines have demonstrated significant effects, including the inhibition pro-inflammatory cytokines matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are critical pathology. Clinical trials, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, shown efficacy reducing symptoms, particularly early cases. However, use remains limited inconsistent evidence, small sample sizes, concerns about antimicrobial resistance. Current guidelines for do not explicitly recommend tetracyclines due these limitations, although off-label may be considered specific The tetracycline restricted drug interactions causing bacterial resistance alongside unpredictable patient responses, hence necessity prudence its prescription within clinical setting. To overcome development safer compounds, in-depth silico analyses, integration personalized medicine approaches needed. Overall, show promise adjunct therapies dual actions. highlights need further research address gaps modified reduced effects improved well optimize outcomes.
