aNature's Plus proudly introduces Advanced Therapeutics Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM Ultra Rx-Joint®, a condition-specific formula that targets the three key elements of healthy joints - Cartilage, Connective Tissue and Synovial fluid. Each mega-potent tablet merges together the clinically proven powers...

In vivo, IL-17 induced a phenotype similar to inflammatory arthritis when injected into the intra-articular space of mouse knee joints. Furthermore, a related protein, IL-17E, was found to have catabolic activity on human articular cartilage. This study characterizes the mechanism whereby IL-17 ...
Note the synovial fluid (indicated by yellow coloring in the synovial cavity). A lack of this viscous fluid—whose job it is to reduce friction between the articular cartilage of synovial joints during movement—creates wear and tear… and pain. Credit: © Science Pics | Dreamstime....
What are the different classifications of joints and what are the types within each classification? What are the sacs of synovial fluid surrounding joints called? What is the process of the hardening of the exoskeleton called? Which of the labe...
A monoarthritis may correspond to a localized inflammatory process or to the onset of rheumatoid disease that may later on spread over few or several of the other joints. In this article the different diagnostic and therapeutic steps to approach monoarthritis are presented. One of the first inves...
Despite enrichment of Treg cells in joints of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, local inflammation persists. As expression of the ATP-hydrolyzing enzymes CD39 and CD73 and the resulting anti-inflammatory adenosine production have been implicated as an important mechanism of suppress...
Therefore, efforts have been made to elucidate the functions and antigen specificity of pathogenic autoreactive T cells, which could be a therapeutic target for disease treatment. Historically, T-helper (Th)1 and Th17 cells are hypothesized to be pathogenic T cells in RA joints; however, lines ...
