Article Synopsis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a painful disease that can make bones weak by causing a lot of certain cells called osteoclasts to grow.
  • Scientists studied how a type of immune cell called neutrophils, and their traps (called NETs), might help these osteoclasts grow and damage bones during arthritis.
  • The results showed that fewer NETs can help protect bones from getting worse in arthritis, suggesting that stopping NETs could be a new way to treat this disease.
