Serum Leptin Exacerbates Osteoarthritis by Promoting Subchondral Bone H‐Type Vessel Angiogenesis via Activation of the PI3K/AKT Pathway

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 13, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease closely associated with obesity. Adipokines secreted by adipose tissue play critical roles in disease progression. This study focuses on the adipokine leptin and investigates its relationship with knee osteoarthritis.

Is the temporomandibular joint affected by rheumatoid arthritis? A comparative investigation with knee arthritis in an experimental rat model

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 114-126, July 2026.
Animals were sensitized with mBSA emulsified in CFA/IFA and subsequently received three intra‐articular injections of mBSA into either the TMJ or the knee (once per week). Mechanical hyperalgesia was assessed using electronic von Frey testing after arthritis establishment at 24 h or 7 days following the third intra‐articular injection.

A New Stage and Classification of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head Based on MRI With Pathophysiological Interpretation

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 7, Page 1448-1458, July 2026.
An MRI‐based classification system integrating fibrosis extent (F1–F3) and inflammatory bone marrow edema activity (E0–E3) was developed for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Increasing fibrosis and edema severity were associated with higher collapse risk, worse pain, and poorer hip function.

Novel Biomaterial‐Based Synovial Fluid Analysis Reveals Protective microRNA Signatures in a Mouse Model of Acute Synovitis‐Driven Osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 12, 30 June 2026.
We successfully established a novel method for collecting synovial fluid in the murine knee joint using Tetra‐slime. Acute synovitis led to secondary cartilage degeneration in the early stage of OA, which might be attributed to the increase of MMP‐3, TNF‐α, and M1 macrophage activation in the synovium.

Retinoic Acid‐Related Orphan Nuclear Receptor Alpha Promotes Cartilage Degeneration in Osteoarthritis by Activating the Wnt/β‐Catenin Pathway

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
During the development of OA, elevated RORα in chondrocytes inhibits β‐catenin degradation in the cytoplasm by activating the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway. When β‐catenin protein accumulates excessively in the cytoplasm, it is transferred to the nucleus and binds to the cytosolic TCF/LEF transcriptional complex, which activates downstream target ...
