Producing MSCs on rigid culture substrates induces a scar‐making phenotype, jeapordizing therapeutic success. ‘Tissue‐soft’ surfaces prevent MSC fibrogenesis and preserve regenerative traits. An epigenetic network, driven by HOXA11 and SALL1, maintains ‘soft memory’ by keeping chromatin open in relaxed MSCs, promoting anti‐fibrotic programs.

Clinical Study Anti-CCP Antibodies Are Not Associated with Familial Mediterranean Fever in Childhood
Objective. Anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) testing is useful in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with high specificity. Arthritis is a very common clinical manifestation in children with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

Dysregulation of U12‐Type Splicing in Lupus Neutrophils
Objective Neutrophil dysfunction is a hallmark of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but its molecular basis remains unclear. This study explores transcriptional and posttranscriptional changes in low‐density granulocytes (LDGs), a proinflammatory neutrophil subset expanded in SLE, focusing on NADPH oxidase (Nox) function and minor intron splicing ...

Association between Anti-Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies (ACPA) Levels and Disease Severity in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]
Background & Objectives: This case–control study was conducted to assess the diagnostic accuracy of serum anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to determine their correlation with disease activity, as ...

The Association of Anti-CCP and Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Purpose: To determine the value of Anti-CCP as predictor for disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis assessed by DAS-28, and to find the effect of smoking on disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis. Materials and Methods: One hundred patients with rheumatoid arthritis involved in this study, consisted of 88 female and 12 male who fulfilled the 2010 ...

Dual‐frequency excitation in a large‐volume PECVD reactor enables enhanced mechanical properties of HMDSO/O2 films on both powered and electrically floating substrates without significantly altering surface free energy or deposition rate. The results indicate that even a limited low‐frequency contribution can modify discharge conditions sufficiently to
