Melanocortin peptides inhibit urate crystal-induced activation of phagocytic cells
INTRODUCTION: The melanocortin peptides have marked anti-inflammatory potential, primarily through inhibition of proinflammatory cytokine production and action on phagocytic cell functions. Gout is an acute form of arthritis caused by the deposition of urate crystals, in which phagocytic cells and c...
