IL-38 overexpression also reduces expression of the signaling proteins p-p38, p-p65, p-JNK, and RhoA significantly. Taken together, our results show that expression of IL-38 is increased in OA tissues and OA rat chondrocytes, and is positively correlated with early disease activity. This increased IL-38 expression lead to the inactivation of MAPK, NF-κB, JNK, and RhoA signaling pathways, which might have impletion on OA chondrocytes apoptosis, degradation and inflammatory effect. Thus, IL-38 probably serves as a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of
