    Abstract Objectives: The mechanisms driving onset of joint inflammation in arthritides such as rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis and the conversion to disease chronicity are poorly understood. We hypothesised mechanostrain could play an instrumental role herein by engaging local and/or systemic pathways, thereby attenuating disease course and outcome.
    Methods: The development of collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) in C57BL/6 mice was evaluated both clinically and histologically under different loading regimens: control, voluntary running or hindpaw unloading. Bone surface porosity was quantified by high-resolution µ-CT. Gene expression analyses were conducted by microarrays and qPCR on microdissected entheses, murine and human synovial tissues (both normal and inflamed). Serum cytokines and chemokines were measured by ELISA. The influence of complement activation and T regulatory (Treg) cell function on the induction and resolution phase of disease was studied by respectively pharmacological modulation and conditional Treg depletion.
    Results: Voluntary running strongly impacts the course of arthritis by impairing the resolution phase of CAIA, leading to more persistent inflammation and bone surface porosity. Mechanical strain induced local complement activation, increased danger-associated molecular pattern expression, activating Fcγ receptors as well as changes in fibroblast phenotype. Interestingly, complement C5a receptor blockade inhibited the enhanced joint pathology caused by voluntary running. Moreover, Treg depletion led to a loss of disease resolution in CAIA mice, which was not observed under voluntary running conditions.
    Conclusions: Running promotes onset and chronicity of arthritis by local upregulation of complement activators and hampering regulatory T cell feedback loops.

    Abstract Objective: Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (MALT-1) plays a crucial role in innate and adaptive immune signaling by modulating the threshold for activation of immune cells, including Treg cells. Therefore, MALT-1 is regarded to be an interesting therapeutic target in several immune-mediated diseases. The goal of this study was to examine the role of MALT-1 in experimental animal models of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
    Methods: MALT-1 activation was assessed by measuring cleavage of the deubiquitinase CYLD in lymphocytes from mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). Furthermore, the impact of MALT-1 deficiency on arthritis was evaluated in Malt1
    Results: MALT-1 activation was observed in the lymphocytes of mice with CIA. T cell-specific MALT-1 deletion in the induction phase of arthritis (incidence of arthritis, 25% in control mice versus 0% in Malt1
    Conclusion: Overall, these data in murine models of RA highlight MALT-1 as a master regulator of T cell activation, which is relevant to the pathogenesis of autoimmune arthritis. Furthermore, these findings show that MALT-1 deficiency can lead to spontaneous osteoporosis, which is associated with impaired Treg cell numbers.

    Abstract Many pro-inflammatory pathways leading to arthritis have global effects on the immune system rather than only acting locally in joints. The reason behind the regional and patchy distribution of arthritis represents a longstanding paradox. Here we show that biomechanical loading acts as a decisive factor in the transition from systemic autoimmunity to joint inflammation. Distribution of inflammation and erosive disease is confined to mechano-sensitive regions with a unique microanatomy. Curiously, this pathway relies on stromal cells but not adaptive immunity. Mechano-stimulation of mesenchymal cells induces CXCL1 and CCL2 for the recruitment of classical monocytes, which can differentiate into bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Genetic ablation of CCL2 or pharmacologic targeting of its receptor CCR2 abates mechanically-induced exacerbation of arthritis, indicating that stress-induced chemokine release by mesenchymal cells and chemo-attraction of monocytes determines preferential homing of arthritis to certain hot spots. Thus, mechanical strain controls the site-specific localisation of inflammation and tissue damage in arthritis.

    Abstract Dysregulated IL-23/IL-17 responses have been linked to psoriatic arthritis and other forms of spondyloarthritides (SpA). RORγt, the key Thelper17 (Th17) cell transcriptional regulator, is also expressed by subsets of innate-like T cells, including invariant natural killer T (iNKT) and γδ-T cells, but their contribution to SpA is still unclear. Here we describe the presence of particular RORγt
