Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTKs) Mediated Potent Bioactive Ligand Targeted to Autoimmune Arthritis
Abstract
This review aims to explore the Pharmacological potential of some important bioactive targets linked to Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) receptors in autoimmune arthritic disorders. RTKs play a role in inflammation, immune cell activation, angiogenesis, cartilage degradation, and autoantibody formation. Focusing on these pathways will pave the way for establishing a new treatment option for diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. In conditions like autoimmune arthritis, inflammation results from immune cells such as T cells, B cells, and macrophages becoming activated and infiltrating the joints. The signaling of several immune receptors, including the TNF and IL-1 receptors, which are considered as important mediators of inflammation, is mediated by RTKs. Herbal bioactives are considered safer than other systems of medicine and possess outstanding therapeutic potential. In this review, we have considered some crucial bioactives that interact with RTKs to modulate their signaling pathways to be helpful for the treatment of various autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, etc.
