Although the E3 ubiquitin ligase Zinc and ring finger 3 (ZNRF3) negatively regulates the Wnt signaling pathway, its function in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is elusive. Here, the effects and the mechanism of ZNRF3 on a mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and human fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) obtained from RA patients were determined. Our results showed that ZNRF3 was highly expressed in tissues and FLSs compared to trauma patients. Lentivirus-mediated silencing of ZNRF3 induced apoptosis decreased cell viability and significantly attenuated inflammation in RA-FLSsviatumor necrosis-α (TNF-α). Additionally, silencing of ZNRF3 reduced knee joint damage and also decreased the level of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the CIA mouse model. These effects were mediated by the crosstalk between Wnt and NF-κB pathways in RA-FLS.
