Abstract
Na-aurothiomalate was applied intraarticularly in the conentration range between 2 and 40 mg to joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Between 2 and 20 mg a constant inhibition of 3H-aminoacids incorporation in proteins was observed. At a dosage of 40 mg of this gold salt a strong inhibition could be detected. In the low concentration range an additional degradation of structurally changed proteins could be the cause of the lower incorporation rate of 3H-aminoacids. From 40 mg on a real inhibition of protein synthesis seems to occur.
