Autophagy and rheumatoid arthritis: Current knowledges and future perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Autophagy is a degradation mechanism by which cells recycle cytoplasmic components to generate energy. By influencing lymphocyte development, survival, and proliferation, autophagy regulates the immune responses against self and non-self antigens ...

Reduction of expression of IL‐18, IL‐1β genes in the articular joint by sumac fruit extract (Rhus coriaria L.)

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background Osteoarthritis is the most common malignant disease in the world. The disease is caused by changes in the metabolism, the structure and function of multiple joints, and joint tissues.

Monoclonal expansion of synoviocytes in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis & Rheumatism, 1998
To examine whether synoviocytes from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a stronger growth ability than those from patients with osteoarthritis (OA), and to determine whether these synoviocytes clonally expand in situ.Synovial tissues from 13 RA patients and 4 OA patients were cultured, and their ability to form colonies in soft agarose was ...

Rheumatoid Arthritis Naive T Cells Share Hypermethylation Sites With Synoviocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ObjectiveTo determine whether differentially methylated CpGs in synovium-derived fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were also differentially methylated in RA peripheral blood (PB) samples.MethodsFor this study ...

Autophagy generates citrullinated peptides in human synoviocytes: a possible trigger for anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVES: Autophagy may represent a functional processing event that creates a substrate for autoreactivity. In particular, autophagy may play a role in the pathogenesis of RA, since autophagy is a key cellular event involved in the generation of ...

Fibrochondrogenic potential of synoviocytes from osteoarthritic and normal joints cultured as tensioned bioscaffolds for meniscal tissue engineering in dogs [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
Meniscal tears are a common cause of stifle lameness in dogs. Use of autologous synoviocytes from the affected stifle is an attractive cell source for tissue engineering replacement fibrocartilage. However, the diseased state of these cells may impede in

Future therapeutic targets in rheumatoid arthritis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by persistent joint inflammation. Without adequate treatment, patients with RA will develop joint deformity and progressive functional impairment.

Angiopoietin-Like Protein 2 Induces Synovial Inflammation in the Facet Joint Leading to Degenerative Changes via Interleukin-6 Secretion [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Spine Journal, 2019
Study Design Experimental human study. Purpose To determine whether angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) is highly expressed in the hyperplastic facet joint (FJ) synovium and whether it activates interleukin-6 (IL-6) secretion in FJ synoviocytes ...

Regulatory T cells provide chondroprotection through increased TIMP1, IL-10 and IL-4, but cannot mitigate the catabolic effects of IL-1β and IL-6 in a tri-culture model of osteoarthritis

open access: yesOsteoarthritis and Cartilage Open, 2021
Objective: To gain insight into Treg interactions with synovial tissues in early OA, an equine tri-culture model of OA was used to test the hypothesis that Tregs, in the absence of T Helper 17 ​cells, are sufficient to resolve inflammation elicited by IL-

The role of proteases in pathologies of the synovial joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Synovial (diarthrodial) joints are employed within the body to provide skeletal mobility and have a characteristic structure adapted to provide a smooth almost frictionless surface for articulation.
