The Notch signaling pathway has a greater relevance to this disease, and it is involved in various pathological processes such as inflammatory cell infiltration, proliferation of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS), microvascular formation and bone destruction. In this paper, the correlation between Notch signaling pathway and this disease is discussed from the perspective of the combination of Chinese and Western medicine, based on the theory of "XU, DU, YU" of traditional Chinese medicine, with the aim of providing a new way of thinking for the research.
