In human and veterinary medicine, the treatment of synovial cysts involves medical or surgical approach. When medical treatment is chosen, triamcinolone acetonide is one of the most used drugs. In this case, intracystic triamcinolone was administered for the treatment of a non-infectious elbow synovial cyst in a subadult female Golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), unable to fly. The bird was brought to a wildlife rescue center after an aerial fight with a conspecific. After the treatment, no clinically detectable adverse effects were noted and there was no recurrence within two weeks. Given the improvement of the clinical conditions and the recovery of flight ability, the animal was released back into the wild 17 days after administration of the drug.

To investigate the role and mechanism of triptophenolide (TRI) in resisting rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Network pharmacology analysis results suggested that TRI was related to multiple inflammation-related signaling proteins, and possessed the stable structural configuration. In animal experiments, TRI suppressed RA in mice, inhibited tissue inflammation, and improved synovial injury.

Triptolide (TP) is the primary pharmacological component of Tripterygium Glycosides (TG), which has anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive properties, among other pharmacological actions, and has excellent potential for developing into a new DMARD. We have reviewed the effects and mechanisms of TP on immunosuppression, inhibiting synovial proliferation, and preventing articular bone destruction in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which is a common disease in the elderly in this paper. We have found that TP has regulatory effects on multiple vital cells in the above-mentioned pathological process of RA, such as monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, T cells, fibroblast-like synoviocytes, and osteoclasts.

Background: Chondrocytes and synovial cells participate in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). Nonetheless, the interactions and correlations between OA synovial cells and chondrocytes remain unclear. This study aims to elucidate the interactions and correlations between OA synovial cells and chondrocytes, so as to deepen understanding of OA pathogenesis.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disease worldwide that significantly impacts the quality of life of individuals, particularly those in middle-aged and elderly populations. OA was initially considered as non-inflammatory arthritis, but recent studies have identified a substantial number of immune responses in OA, leading to the recognition of inflammation as a key factor in its pathogenesis. An increasing number of studies have found that mast cell (MC) and MC-secreted inflammatory mediators and cytokines are notably increased in the synovial fluid of OA patients, indicating a potential association between MCs and the onset and progression of synovial inflammation.
