<![CDATA[ ABSTRAK Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) adalah penyakit autoimun yang menyebabkan peradangan kronis pada sendi. Penatalaksanaan RA harus agresif dan sedini mungkin sehingga mampu meningkatkan hasil jangka pendek maupun panjang penderita. Rheumatoid arthritis akibat reaksi autoimun dalam jaringan sinovial yang melibatkan proses fagositosis. Tujuan dari pengobatan rheumatoid arthritis tidak hanya mengontrol gejala penyakit, tetapi juga penekanan aktivitas penyakit untuk mencegah kerusakan permanen. Penderita RA memulai pengobatan mereka dengan DMARDs (Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs) seperti metotreksat, sulfasalazin dan leflunomid. Alternatif pengobatan yang dapat dijadikan salah satu pilihan dalam penanganan RA yaitu senyawa kurkumin dan analognya. Sistem nanopartikel mampu meningkatan efektifitas dalam pengobatan terutama keadaan RA. Kata kunci : rheumatoid arthritis, Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs, kurkumin, nanopartikel. ABSTRACT Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints. Management of RA must be aggressive and as early as possible so as to increase the yield of short and long term patients. Rheumatoid arthritis due to an autoimmune reaction in the synovial tissue that involves the process of phagocytosis. The purpose of the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis not only control the symptoms of the disease, but also suppressed disease activity to prevent permanent damage. RA patients begin their treatment with DMARDs (Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs) such as methotrexate, sulfasalazine and leflunomid. Alternative treatments that can be used as an option in the treatment of RA are compounds curcumin and its analogs. Nanoparticle systems is able to increase the effectiveness in the treatment of RA, especially state.
