The most active patients exhibited dose-dependent downregulation of several immune signaling pathways implicated in RA pathogenesis. These included CD40, STAT3, TREM-1, interleukin (IL)-17A, IL-8, Toll-like receptor, and interferon (IFN) signaling pathways. Upstream cytokine activation state analysis predicted reduced activation of tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1 and IFN in the most active group.
