Embodiment 1

[0115] Example 1: In vivo studies

[0116] Material

[0117] A was synthesized by Albany Molecular Research Inc. (Albany, NY, USA) 3AR agonist CF101, GMP grade compound, generically known as 1-deoxy-1-[6-[[(3-iodophenyl)methyl]amino]-9H-purin-9-yl]-N-methyl Base-D-ribofuranuramide (IB-MECA).

[0118] Methotrexate was purchased from Abie, Israel.

[0119] method

[0120] Female Lewis rats, 8-12 weeks old, were obtained from Harlan Laboratories (Jerusalem, Israel). Rats were fed standardized pelleted chow and provided with tap water. Experiments were performed in accordance with the guidelines established by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of Can-Fite BioPharma, Petah Tikva, Israel. Rats were injected subcutaneously at the base of the tail with 100 μl of a suspension consisting of incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) and 10 mg / ml heat-killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt) H37Ra (Difco, Detroit, USA). Each group contained 10 animals.

Embodiment 2

[0125] Example 2: In vitro studies

[0126] Culture of Human Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes (FLS)

[0127] Human synovial fluid samples were collected from osteoarthritis (OA) patients undergoing paracentesis. The liquid was centrifuged and the supernatant was removed. Cells were resuspended in DMEM containing collagenase type I (4 mg / ml) for 2 hours with vigorous shaking at 37°C. Cells released in the supernatant were harvested by centrifugation and incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO 2 cultured in DMEM containing 10% FBS, 2mM glutamine, 100U / ml penicillin, 100μg / ml streptomycin, 1% non-essential amino acids, 1% sodium pyruvate and 20nM HEPES buffer. After overnight culture, non-adherent cells were removed. Adherent cells (FLS) were passaged at a 1:2 ratio, and cells from passages 4 to 10 were used in this experiment.

[0128] The effect of CF101 and methotrexate (MTX) together on the proliferation of FLS was examined using the MTT assay. Incubate cells in growth medium in 96-wel...

Abstract

Inflammatory state in a subject is assayed by determining the level of expression of A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) in white blood cells (WBC), e.g. circulating WBCs, from the subject. A high level of expression of A3AR is indicative of an inflammatory state in the subject. This assay can be used for determining the severity of inflammation in a subject and monitoring the efficacy of anti-inflammatory treatment. Also, the level of expression may be used for selecting patients to receive an anti-inflammatory treatment that comprises an A3AR agonist.
