Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Microcrystals

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2017
Neutrophil extracellular traps represent a fascinating mechanism by which PMNs entrap extracellular microbes. The primary purpose of this innate immune mechanism is thought to localize the infection at an early stage.

Disseminated Chronic Tophaceous Gout With Multi‐Tissue Involvement

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Gout is a metabolic condition in which hyperuricaemia leads to deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in synovial and peri‐articular tissues. (1) Acutely, synovial deposition causes a painful inflammatory reaction. Over time, chronic hyperuricaemia can lead to deposition of uric acid crystals in alternate tissues, with granulomatous ...

Factors influencing the crystallization of monosodium urate: a systematic literature review [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2015
Gout is a chronic disease of monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition. Although hyperuricaemia is the central risk factor for development of gout, not all people with hyperuricaemia have subclinical MSU crystal deposition or indeed, symptomatic disease.

Nucleotide Metabolism in Health and Disease

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Nucleotide metabolism, including de novo synthesis, salvage pathways, and catabolism, when dysregulated contributes to cancer, immune disorders, metabolic and urological diseases, and radiation injury. Metabolites such as adenosine, cGAMP, NAD, and cAMP and enzymes like RNR are promising therapeutic targets and biomarkers.

Primary Costochondral Gout with Concomitant Streptococcal Anterior Chest Wall Abscess: A Rare Diagnostic Challenge [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Gout is a metabolic disorder caused by deposition of monosodium urate crystals in joints and soft-tissues. Gout classically affects peripheral joints such as the first metatarsophalangeal joint (podagra).

Hirudin Attenuates Uric Acid‐Induced Renal Tubular Injury via TNFRSF6B‐Mediated Suppression of NF‐κB Signaling

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Hyperuricemia, characterized by elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels, is increasingly recognized as a pathological contributor to renal injury through oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Hirudin, a thrombin inhibitor derived from leech saliva, has recently been noted for its anti‐inflammatory properties, yet its role in ...

Factors Associated With Intermittent and Constant Pain Patterns in People With Gout: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Objective Although gout is traditionally conceptualized as an episodic disease characterized by acute flares and symptom‐free intercritical periods, some individuals report persistent joint pain that extends beyond flares. This cross‐sectional analysis aimed to explore factors associated with self‐reported pain patterns (constant vs intermittent) in ...

The effect of uricase on monosodium urate (MSU) crystallization, IL-1β and TNFα in monosodium urate-induced arthritis

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract Background : Although the symptoms of gouty arthritis could be controlled by clinical methods, it is often impossible to remove tophi from joints that cause acute gouty arthritis. Methods : In study, we injected a suspension of MSU into the knee joint of chicken, and then injected uricase solution into the joint after 4, 8 and 12 hours.

Dual Energy CT: added value in gouty arthritis

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2013
Gouty arthritis is an inflammatory reaction as a result of monosodium urate crystal deposition in synovial fluid and periarticular soft tissue. It is the most common form of inflammatory arthritis with an estimated prevalence of 5 per 1000 in the USA ...
