Objective: Arthritis is a class of diseases, characterized by joint and surrounding inflammation, accompanied by joint swelling, pain, dysfunction. According to different factors, arthritis can be divided into osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and so on. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal modification of eukaryotic mRNA and is involved in splicing, stabilization, output and degradation of RNA metabolism. This review systematically summarized current insights into the mechanism of m6A in arthritis.
Methods: The studies related to the involvement of m6A in the pathogenesis of arthritis reported in PubMed, Google scholar, and other open source literatures were investigated to evaluate the important roles of m6A in arhtritis, and the clinical relevances.
Results And Conclusions: M6A methylation regulators play the roles of writers, erasers, and readers, are crucial for regulating gene expression, and play important roles in many biological processes such as virus replication and cell differentiation. In addition, more and more studies have shown that m6A is closely related to the development of arthritis. As a new therapeutic target for arthritis, m6A has a wide influence on the pathological mechanism of arthritis. However, further research is needed to determine how m6A affects arthritis pathology and its use in target therapy and diagnosis.

Matrix-mediated activation of murine fibroblast-like synoviocytes.

Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are key cells promoting cartilage damage and bone loss in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They are activated to assume an invasive and migratory phenotype. While mechanisms of FLS activation are unknown, evidence suggests that pre-damaged extracellular matrix (ECM) of the cartilage can trigger FLS activation.

Spine Department and Deformities, Interbalkan European Medical Center, Thessaloniki, Greece.
Objective: Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) represents an increasingly encountered condition in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of the present study is to assess the progress of health-related quality of life following transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) for LDH in patients suffering from RA.
Methods: Seventy-four patients, scheduled to undergo elective TELD for LDH, were prospectively enrolled in the study.
Factors Associated With the Absence of Cervical Spine Instability in Rheumatoid Arthritis: A >10-Year Prospective Multicenter Cohort Study.
Neurospine
December 2024
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Kobe Rosai Hospital, Kobe, Japan.
Objective: To identify factors associated with the absence of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: Cervical spine instability was defined as the presence of at least one of the following: atlantoaxial subluxation, vertical subluxation of the axis, or subaxial subluxation. In 2001-2002, 634 enrolled outpatients with "classical" or "definite" RA underwent a radiographic cervical spine checkup.
Exploring the potential mechanism of action of Wutou-Guizhi decoction in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis through network pharmacology analysis.

Electronic address:
As a widely recognized traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction prescription in China, numerous studies have shown that Wutou-Guizhi decoction (WTGZD) exhibits significant therapeutic efficacy for Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Nevertheless, the underlying molecular mechanisms have yet to be fully elucidated. This study aims to establish a database of active ingredients for WTGZD and identify RA-related target genes.

Accumulating evidence suggests that stigma is a pervasive and pernicious psychosocial phenomenon that affects people living with chronic pain. In this narrative review, we describe the nature of stigma experienced by people with chronic pain and discuss its multifaceted determinants. These determinants include features of pain itself and intersectional factors, including comorbid conditions and social marginalization.
