Transcription profiling of muscle and liver tissue in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and control mice treated with increasing doses of prednisolone
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Prednisolone is a potent anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid (GC) but chronic use is hampered by metabolic side effects. Although GCs are predominantly prescribed for treatment of inflammatory conditions, little is known about their long-term effects on gene-expression in-vivo during inflammation. Here, we aimed to identify genes underlying prednisolone-induced metabolic side effects in a complex in-vivo inflammatory setting after long-term treatment. We performed whole-genome expression profiling in liver and muscle from arthritic and non-arthritic mice treated with several doses of prednisolone for three weeks.
