Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Carbamylation, a nonenzymatic post‐translational modification, contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP) occur in around 50% of patients with RA and associate with greater joint damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a major source of carbamylated autoantigens. We sought

BMEMat, EarlyView.This study develops a nano‐enzyme patch (ezPatch) targeting bone interfaces. Utilizing ligand‐to‐metal charge transfer (LMCT) catalysis and bone‐targeting ligands on copper nanosheets, ezPatch simultaneously scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) and generates oxygen in situ at bone‐losing sites.

Mechanisms of Enhanced Osteoclastogenesis in Alkaptonuria [PDF]
The American Journal of Pathology, 2018 Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a rare disorder characterized by the deficiency of the enzyme homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase and consequent homogentisate accumulation, which leads to progressive and severe osteoarthopathy starting from the second decade of life. Thus, in AKU patients, bone involvement represents an important clinical issue, which we investigated.

Discontinuing Long‐Term Denosumab in Treating Fragile Bone: Why, for Whom, and How?
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Discontinuation of denosumab (Dmab) may be necessary due to adverse events or an unfavorable long‐term risk–benefit profile. However, accumulating evidence demonstrates pronounced rebound phenomena after withdrawal, most notably a marked increase in multiple vertebral fractures, and, in some reports, elevated mortality.
