Innate immune memory in inflammatory arthritis
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, Published online: 06 September 2023; doi:10.1038/s41584-023-01009-0New evidence demonstrates that myelopoiesis in the bone marrow is a critical event in inflammatory arthritis and is maintained by acquired memory in innate immune cells, which perpetuate inflammation and tissue destruction.

Inflammation across tissues: can shared cell biology help design smarter trials?
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, Published online: 04 September 2023; doi:10.1038/s41584-023-01007-2Similarities in the pathogenesis and treatment of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases suggest that they can be investigated together in basket trials, to reduce the risk of failure of early-phase drug development and to facilitate the study of rare diseases.

Fibroblast multiplicity in RA: a synovial state of affairs
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, Published online: 21 August 2023; doi:10.1038/s41584-023-01015-2Rheumatoid arthritis synovium contains phenotypically and functionally heterogeneous fibroblast-like synoviocytes. Cutting-edge analyses have now defined at least four distinct states of these cells related to their location in the synovium, epigenetic imprinting and the influence of microenvironment mediators.

TNF and TNF receptors as therapeutic targets for rheumatic diseases and beyond
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, Published online: 04 August 2023; doi:10.1038/s41584-023-01002-7The TNF–TNF receptor signalling network has pleiotropic effects that can both promote and protect against immune-mediated diseases. Modulation of this network through the use of TNF receptor-targeting biologic drugs holds promise for treating various diseases, including TNF inhibitor-refractory diseases.
