Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease, and the complexity of its molecular mechanisms has hindered the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In this study, we integrated five independent OA RNA-se...
Approximately 40% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis do not respond to individual biologic therapies, while biomarkers predictive of treatment response are lacking. Here we analyse RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) of pre-treatment synovial tissue from the...

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the leading cause of degenerative joint disease, with total joint replacement as the only definitive cure. However, no disease-modifying therapy is currently available. Inflammation and fibrosis in the infrapatellar...
INTRODUCTION: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by the progressive deterioration of cartilage and synovial inflammation. A critical mechanism in the pathogenesis of KOA is impaired efferocytosis in synovial tissu...
BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation and progressive joint destruction. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a microreticular structure formed after neutrophil death, have rece...
BACKGROUND: Anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA)-negative (ACPA-) rheumatoid arthritis (RA) presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to the absence of specific biomarkers, underscoring the need to elucidate its distincti...
Ultrasound imaging has shown promise in assessing synovium inflammation associated early stages of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The precise identification of the synovium and the quantification of inflammation-specific imaging biomarkers is a crucial a...
Rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) is one of the common complications in patients with RA, which affects their quality of life. The CIBERSORT algorithm is widely employed to determine the proportion of immune cells (ICs) ...
