Actarit is a drug that has been shown to suppress disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Actarit reduces spontaneous tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 1beta secretion by primary synovial cells of patients with RA. Actarit likely acts on RA synovial cells to reduce cell-cell interactions with autologous synovium infiltrating lymphocytes and to inhibit proinflammatory cytokine and MMP production, leading to amelioration of symptoms of RA.
