Blocking the IL‑6 pathway to treat immune checkpoint inhibitor‑induced inflammatory arthritis (Review).

The incorporation of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) into cancer treatment has revolutionized oncology, providing marked advantages in managing various types of cancer. Nevertheless, the increasing use of ICIs has led to the emergence of immune‑related side effects, including autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory arthritis. IL‑6 signaling is crucial in the development of inflammatory arthritis and is linked to both the benefits and adverse effects of ICIs. The present review summarizes the latest progress in the IL‑6 pathway in inflammatory arthritis and discusses the therapeutic potent

Exploring new drug treatment targets for immune related bone diseases using a multi omics joint analysis strategy.

In the field of treatment and prevention of immune-related bone diseases, significant challenges persist, necessitating the urgent exploration of new and effective treatment methods. However, most existing Mendelian randomization (MR) studies are confined to a single analytical approach, which limits the comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of these diseases. In light of this, we propose the hypothesis that genetic variations in specific plasma proteins have a causal relationship with immune-related bone diseases through the MR mechanism, and that k
