Differential Diagnosis of Mucopolysaccharidoses Types I, II, III, IVA, and VI Through Analysis of Leukocytic Inclusions

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.

Construction and evaluation of a chronic arthritis animal model induced by persistent activation of toll‐like receptors via lipopolysaccharide stimulation

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We constructed a novel systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis mouse model (LC) by introducing sustained TLR4 activation into the collagen‐induced arthritis model. The LC model effectively recapitulates human sJIA‐like systemic inflammation while revealing a critical dissociation between systemic immune activation and joint damage.
