Targeting PTPN22 in Arthritis: Molecular Docking and Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of Artemisia vestita Compounds
Abstract: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune condition characterized by inflammation of the synovial membrane, commonly resulting in swelling, pain, stiffness, and overall fatigue. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) has been identified as a risk factor linked to various autoimmune diseases, including RA. In the PTPN22 gene, two missense Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with autoimmune conditions. The R620W (C1858T, rs247660) variant in exon 14 has been …
