Funded Activity Summary

Annexin-1, an antiinflammatory substance, mediates many of the actions of steroids. Our studies will reveal whether annexin-1 will reduce inflammatory and immune responses, and secondly, determine the substances regulated by annexin-1 in immune responses. If annexin-1 is found to mediate the immune regulatory effect of steroids, its capacity to be involved in the beneficial effect of steroids may have an important impact in treatment of arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.
