Abstract:
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the possible beneficial effects of ozone therapy, a well-known antioxidant and an immunomodulator, on gouty arthritis and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Acute gouty arthritis was induced in male albino rats via MSU crystals intra-articular injection in the ankle joint. The gouty arthritic rats received pre-treatment with ozone, colchicine (as a reference drug) or their combination. Results: The obtained results of ozone therapy showed obvious reduction in the degree of ankle edematous swelling, pro-inflammatory cytokines, lipid peroxidation, the nucleotide binding oligomerization domain like receptor containing pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3), procaspase-1, caspase-1, interleukin-1β synovial tissue levels with enhancement of antioxidant defense system. Additionally, ozone therapy significantly attenuated the histological derangements in gouty arthritic rats. Conclusion: This study suggests that ozone is able to treat gouty arthritis and reducing synovial injury through an anti-inflammatory effect as well as antioxidant activity.
