Increased production of intracellular interleukin-1 receptor antagonist type I in the synovium of mice with collagen-induced arthritis: a possible role in the resolution of arthritis.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the patterns of production of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) isoforms and of IL-1beta during arthritis in vivo.
