Установлено, что у больных с развернутым РА имел место достоверно более высокий уровень ФНОα, рФНОα-р1, ИЛ-1β и ИЛ-17, в то время как концентрация ИЛ-6 и рИЛ-6 была достоверно выше при поздней стадии заболевания. Выявлены признаки патологического ремоделирования ОСА, а именно, увеличение толщины комплекса интима-медиа (КИМ), диаметра и индекса жесткости ОСА, прогрессирующее с длительностью заболевания. Проведенный корреляционный анализ показал, что у больных РА имеет место достоверная прямая корреляционная связь между индексом DAS28, уровнем провоспалительных цитокинов, толщиной КИМ и диаметром ОСА. У больных РА терапия ритуксимабом наряду с противовоспалительной активностью обладает вазопротективным действием, более эффективным при длительности заболевания менее 2 лет.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article presents the results of the research of Rituximab (monoclonal antibodies to superficial receptors of CD20-lymphocytes) impact on the proinflammatory cytokine level and structural-functional properties of the common carotid artery (CCA) in 48 patients with the varying duration of Jg M-RF-seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It was determined that patients with the developed RA had significantly higher levels of TNF-α, sTNF-α-r1, IL-1β and IL-17, while the concentration of IL-6 and sIL-6 was significantly increased in the late stage disease. The following signs of pathological CCA remodeling were determined: the increase in intimae-media complex (IMC) thickness, the increase in CCA diameter and rigidity index; these changes were progressing during the course of the disease. The correlational analysis revealed the significant direct correlational relationship between DAS28 index, the proinflammatory cytokine level, IMC thickness and CCA diameter in patients with RA. Apart from the anti-inflammatory activity, the treatment of patients with RA with Rituximab also had a vasoprotective action, which was more efficient if the disease duration did not exceed 2 years.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>провоспалительные цитокины</kwd><kwd>ревматоидный артрит</kwd><kwd>ремоделирование сосудистого русла</kwd><kwd>ритуксимаб</kwd><kwd>proinflammatory cytokines</kwd><kwd>rheumatoid arthritis</kwd><kwd>vasculature remodeling</kwd><kwd>Rituximab</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Александрова Е.Н., Авдеева А.С., Лукина Г.В., Новиков А.А., Черкасова М.В., Попкова Т.В., Линева О.Г., Кузикянц К.Х., Насонов Е.Л.
