The present invention concerns a method of treating rheumatoid arthritis by diagnosing that a person is in need of treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and administering a therapeutically effective amount of a ligand which modulates NF-kB transcription factor by interaction with estrogen receptor ER-α, estrogen receptor ER-β, or both ER-α and ER- β estrogen receptors with a substantial absence of creatine kinase stimulation. In certain embodiments, the administration is with a substantial absence of uterotropic activity.
本发明涉及一种治疗类风湿性关节炎的方法,通过诊断一个人需要治疗类风湿性关节炎,并且通过与
雌激素受体ER-α、
雌激素受体ER-β或ER-α和ER-β
雌激素受体中的一个相互作用来给予调节NF-kB转录因子的
配体的治疗有效量,且在很大程度上缺乏
