Chondrocyte apoptosis induced by nitric oxide.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of NO and IL-1 in the induction of chondrocyte cell death was analyzed, and it was shown that NO alone is not the primary inducer of cell death.

The Immunopathology of Joint Inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis

TL;DR: In an infectious etiology of rheumatoid arthritis, it is pertinent to consider the manner in which a pathogen might gain access to the synovial membrane, as the joint seems to be uniquely predisposed to infection with some bacteria.

Oxygen and reactive oxygen species in cartilage degradation: friends or foes?

TL;DR: It is shown that oxygen and ROS play a crucial role in the control of cartilage homeostasis and that at this time, the exact role of "oxidative stress" in cartilage degradation still remains questionable.

The role of mitochondria in osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: Polymorphisms in mtDNA may become useful as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of OA, and modulation of serum biomarkers by mtDNA haplogroups supports the concept that mtDNA Haplogroups may define specific OA phenotypes in the complex OA process.
