Emotional well-being
Emotional effects of arthritis can have as much impact as physical symptoms. Find out what support is available and what you can do for yourself.
What helps hip pain?
Hip pain is a really common problem and there are ways to help yourself with exercise and certain treatments.
Osteoarthritis - How do immune cells detect and help to repair cartilage damage?
Learn about our research which explores how mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs), which are a group of immune cells, interact with cells that help repair cartilage.
Osteoarthritis - Using bone marrow stem cells to produce high quality cartilage
Learn about our research into finding the best environment in which high quality cartilage, lost through osteoarthritis, can be produced from stem cells.
Anti-TNF research helps us to understand COVID-19 impact
We're supporting research into arthritis and anti-TNF to understand the impact of COVID-19 and help to improve future treatments.
Osteoarthritis - Investigating the processes involved in cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis
Learn about our research into the process where cartilage cells take up molecules in osteoarthritis development and how impairment of LRP1 takes place.
Rheumatoid arthritis - Investigating the potential of drug delivery directly to damaged cartilage
Learn about our research into how microvesicles provide protection to cartilage and if they can be loaded with drugs to directly target damaged cartilage.
Osteoarthritis - Does loss of the cartilage component Fibrillin-1 contribute to osteoarthritis development?
Learn about our research which aims to better understand the role of fibrillin-1 (a protein found in joint cartilage) in normal and abnormal cartilage.
Osteoarthritis - Does loss of the cartilage component Fibrillin-1 contribute to osteoarthritis development?
Learn about our research which aims to better understand the role of fibrillin-1 (a protein found in joint cartilage) in normal and abnormal cartilage.
Osteoarthritis - Suramin - a new hope for blocking osteoarthritic cartilage loss?
Learn about our research into developing a treatment, based on the drug suramin, that protects cartilage from breaking down in osteoarthritis patients.
Osteoarthritis - Understanding how changes in molecular structure affect cartilage health and repair
Learn about our research into the role of sulfations in cartilage health and repair for osteoarthritis, comparing osteoarthritic and healthy donor tissue.
Osteoarthritis - How do serpin proteins help to protect against cartilage damage
Learn about our research into serpin - how levels and activity are altered in osteoarthritis, how they can protect cartilage, and their use as a treatment.
Osteoarthritis - Targeting body clocks in joint cartilage towards therapies for osteoarthritis
Learn about our research into whether changes in the setting of our body clock are linked to the damage to joint cartilage seen in osteoarthritis (OA).
Rheumatoid arthritis - How can we manipulate immune cells to treat arthritis?
Learn about our research into some important questions highlighted in clinical trials on the use of the dendritic cells (immune cells) as an immunotherapy.
