Abnormal glycolytic metabolism contributes to joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aims of this study were to investigate the role of 6‐phosphofructo‐2‐kinase/fructose‐2,6‐bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), a bifunctional enzyme that controls the glycolytic rate, in regulating fibroblast‐like synoviocyte (FLS)‐mediated synovial inflammation and invasiveness in RA.

Keywords: fibroblast like; synovial inflammation; inflammation; phosphofructo kinase; mediated synovial; rheumatoid arthritis
