Investigation of the role of endosomal Toll-like receptors in murine collagen-induced arthritis reveals a potential role for TLR7 in disease maintenance [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Endosomal toll-like receptors (TLRs) have recently emerged as potential contributors to the inflammation observed in human and rodent models of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Fibrotic pathways and fibroblast-like synoviocyte phenotypes in osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, characterized by osteophyte formation, cartilage degradation, and structural and cellular alterations of the synovial membrane.

Regulation of peripheral inflammation by spinal p38 MAP kinase in rats. [PDF]
BackgroundSomatic afferent input to the spinal cord from a peripheral inflammatory site can modulate the peripheral response. However, the intracellular signaling mechanisms in the spinal cord that regulate this linkage have not been defined.

Effect of a small molecule inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB nuclear translocation in a murine model of arthritis and cultured human synovial cells [PDF]
A small cell-permeable compound, dehydroxymethylepoxyquinomicin (DHMEQ), does not inhibit phosphorylation and degradation of IκB (inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB [NF-κB]) but selectively inhibits nuclear translocation of activated NF-κB.

ELECTRON MICROSCOPY OF THE HUMAN SYNOVIAL MEMBRANE [PDF]
The structure of the lining cells at the surface of the synovial membrane facing the joint cavity has been studied by electron microscopy. The long cytoplasmic processes of these cells appear to be oriented toward the surface of the membrane, where they overlap and intertwine.

Preliminary definitions for the sonographic features of synovitis in children [PDF]
Objectives Musculoskeletal ultrasonography (US) has the potential to be an important tool in the assessment of disease activity in childhood arthritides. To assess pathology, clear definitions for synovitis need to be developed first.
