New role of calcium‐binding fluorescent dye alizarin complexone in detecting permeability from articular cartilage to subchondral bone

FASEB BioAdvances
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disorder characterized by the progressive deterioration of articular cartilage and concomitant alterations in subchondral bone architecture. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the initiation and

Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

The skeleton of the green Iguana iguana (Squamata: Iguanidae) and its intraspecific morphological variation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is an iguanine lizard with herbivorous and arboreal habits, whose distribution spans through South America, Central America to the south of North America. Although the genus Iguana is well‐known, the species still lacks a comprehensive and up‐to‐date anatomical study, particularly addressing the axial skeleton,

Monocyte‐Derived Macrophages‐Synovial Fibroblasts Crosstalk Unravels Oncostatin Signaling Network as a Driver of Synovitis in Osteoarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating joint disease that is characterized by cartilage degradation, synovial inflammation, and pain. Macrophages have been implicated in OA pathology, but the origins and functions of diverse macrophage subsets seeding the synovial joint tissue remain incompletely understood.

Cytokine pathways driving diverse tissue pathologies in rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a complex systemic disorder characterised primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease e.g. of the lung with potentially devastating clinical consequences.

Distinct HLA Associations for Antibody Multireactivity With Citrulline‐Containing Type II Collagen Epitopes Versus More Limited Antibody Reactivity With Citrulline‐Containing IgG Epitopes in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be promiscuous, with cross‐reactive binding to many antigens containing short motifs, or private with little cross‐reactivity. Also, ACPA reactivity patterns differ among patients with RA, including for motif‐containing epitopes in important self‐antigens like ...

Lifelong evolution of autoreactive plasma cell numbers, affinity and anatomical location in arthritic K/BxN mice

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective The spontaneous K/BxN mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis has been used extensively to study chronic inflammation, contribution of immune cells, and the primordial role of autoreactive antibodies in disease initiation and severity. Only the ubiquitous enzyme glucose‐6‐phosphate isomerase (GPI) is the target of IgG autoantibodies secreted by ...

Plasma Proteomics Identifies TAOK3 as a Potential Biomarker of Rheumatoid Arthritis Activity and a Novel Therapeutic Target

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Bone destruction associated with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains a major therapeutic challenge, with a lack of reliable molecular markers reflecting bone injury. This study aims to identify novel biomarkers linked to bone destruction in active RA through proteomic analysis, providing new strategies for precise monitoring and targeted
