has_component polysaccharide arthritis inducing chemical zymosan 2025-03-24T16:24:53Z MESH:D015054 PMID:39252992 This is any condition in which the main influencing factor is zymosan, a protein-carbohydrate complex derived from yeast cell walls. Zymosan induces experimental sterile inflammation and activates macrophages by binding to TLR2 and Dectin-1 receptors. Joint injection of zymosan induces arthritis in experimental animals to create a model of chronic proliferative arthritis. XCO:0001563 experimental_condition_ontology slaulederkind
