However, CRP- induced expression of CXCL8 was CD32-dependent as it was blunted by the antibody against CD32, whereas CRP-induced MMP9 was blocked by the antibody to CD64, demonstrating that differential signaling mechanisms for CRP in regulating CXCL8 and MMP9 expression in RA-FLSs. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and rheumatoid arthritis.
