End-point analyses included matrix metalloproteinases-3 (MMP-3) activity and macroscopic and histological joint examinations. Results demonstrated that treatment in LI-HA and HI-HA groups resulted in statistically signiWcant suppression of CRP, PGE2, and MMP-3 in comparison with those of HA group. Inhibition of serum CRP was only observed in LI-HA group. The order of serum MMP-3 inhibition was LI-HA>HI-HA>HA. Based on macroscopic and histological analyses of pannus formation, hyperplasia, inXammation, joint leakage and erosion, and loss of proteoglycan, the only statistically signiWcant improvement was shown in LI-HA group compared to HA group and HI-HA group compared to control group.en-US醫學檢驗暨生物技術學系期刊論文article
