Rheumatoid arthritis - How do gut bacteria influence the development of RA
Learn about our research into how gut bacteria leads to the development of rheumatoid arthritis in people who are at risk of developing the condition.
Osteoarthritis - The role of the nerve growth mediator semaphorin 3A in joint pain
Learn about our research into semaphorin-3A, if a reduction in the joint leads to uncontrolled local nerve ingrowth and pain, and if this can be reversed.

Rheumatoid arthritis - Exploring three DNA areas associated with risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis
Learn about our research into the genes controlled by the three RA associated regions, the mechanism to control them and where the changes are important.
Rheumatoid arthritis - How small things matter: studying the role of microRNAs in rheumatoid arthritis
Learn about our research into whether microRNAs are important in the function and survival of specialised immune cells called monocytes in patients with RA.
Rheumatoid arthritis - Inhibiting blood vessels to stop the spread of inflammatory pain
Learn about our research into the link between continued pain in inflammatory arthritis, such as RA, and the activity in the blood vessels of the spinal cord.

Rheumatoid arthritis - Are bad stem cells responsible?
Learn about our research into testing the theory that RA is sustained and perpetuated by diseased stem cells in the joint that give rise to abnormal tissue.
Rheumatoid arthritis - Do gut bacteria influence immunity and rheumatoid arthritis?
Learn about our research into gut bacteria - its influence on developing RA and how differences can be correlated with features of the patients' immune cells.
