A reaction-diffusion model for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis with a treatment term [PDF]
We present a mathematical study for the development of multiple sclerosis based on a reaction-diffusion system. The model describes interactions among different populations of human cells, motion of immune cells stimulated by cytokines, consumption of myelin sheath due to anomalously activated lymphocytes and its restoration by oligodendrocytes ...

Diverse Treatment Goals in Psoriatic Arthritis: Insights From Participants in the PARC Cohort
Objective The aim of this study was to examine patient‐reported treatment goals among individuals with psoriatic arthritis. Methods Participants in the Psoriatic Arthritis Research Consortium completed standardized assessments, including patient‐reported outcome (PROs) instruments, between 2017 and 2020.

Ascorbic acid enhances the inhibitory effect of aspirin on neuronal cyclooxygenase-2-mediated prostaglandin E2 production [PDF]
In the present study, we show that ascorbic acid dose-dependently inhibited interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)-mediated PGE2 synthesis in the human neuronal cell line, SK-N-SH. Furthermore, in combination with aspirin, ascorbic acid augmented the inhibitory effect of aspirin on PGE2 synthesis. However, ascorbic acid had no synergistic effect along with other

Targeting interleukin-17 in chronic inflammatory disease: A clinical perspective
Although many chronic inflammatory diseases share the feature of elevated IL-17 production, therapeutic targeting of IL-17 has vastly different clinical outcomes.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Personalized Mathematical Model Predicting Endotoxin-Induced Inflammatory Responses in Young Men [PDF]
The initial reaction of the body to pathogenic microbial infection or severe tissue trauma is an acute inflammatory response. The magnitude of such a response is of critical importance, since an uncontrolled response can cause further tissue damage, sepsis, and ultimately death, while an insufficient response can result in inadequate clearance of ...

Specific low frequency electromagnetic fields induce epigenetic and functional changes in U937 cells [PDF]
In this study, we investigated the effects of specific low frequency electromagnetic fields sequences on U937 cells, an in vitro model of human monocyte/macrophage differentiation. U937 cells were exposed to electromagnetic stimulation by means of the SyntheXer system using two similar sequences, XR-BC31 and XR-BC31/F.
