The present study investigated arthritis induced by complete Freund adjuvant (AIA) in spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive rats (respectively, SHR and NTR rats). The inflammatory reaction was studied for 28 days by evaluating paw edema and secondary lesions found 10 days after complete Freund adjuvant (CFA) administration. The body weight of the animals and macroscopic alterations of several organs, including spleen, thymus, adrenal glands, and lymph nodes, were also analyzed. The results showed that the AIA manifestations were decreased in SHRs compared with NTRs. Moreover, this altered inflammatory response was not modified by surgical adrenalectomy.

Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune condition that causes severe joint deformities and impaired functionality, affecting the well-being and daily life of individuals. Consequently, there is a pressing demand for identifying viable therapeutic targets for treating RA. This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanisms of osteoclast differentiation in PBMC from patients with RA through transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis.

Background: Gout is a metabolic disease caused by decreased blood uric acid excretion and purine metabolism disorders. Long-term and persistent metabolic dysfunction gradually affects other organ functions and is the main factor inducing Myocardial Infarction (MI) and Heart Failure (HF), seriously affecting the health of patients. This study adopts a meta-analysis to analyze the risk of MI and HF in gout patients.

Th17 cells are activated by STAT3 factors in the nucleus, and these factors are correlated with the pathologic progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of STAT3 in mitochondria, but its function is unclear. We investigated the novel role of mitochondrial STAT3 (mitoSTAT3) in Th17 cells and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) and analyzed the correlation of mitoSTAT3 with RA.

This study reports the preparation of hydrogels (HG) made with xanthan gum (XG) and ƙ-carrageenan (KC) polysaccharides containing ketoprofen (KET)-loaded nanoemulsions (NK) and their evaluation in a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) model. The nano-based HGs exhibited nanometric-sized droplets (~ 100 nm), an acidic pH (5.10-6.
