Low-grade inflammation causes gap junction-coupled cell dysfunction throughout the body, which can lead to the spread of systemic inflammation 👀👀👇👇 degruyter.com/document/doi/1…

Extremely proud of our PhD student Reem Assi presenting our new study on histone demethylation in osteoarthritis! #OARSI2022 OARSI Rik Lories

Silvia Monteagudo & Rik Lories are searching for a new postdoc to study epigenetic regulation of cartilage health and disease: kuleuven.be/personeel/jobs… #osteoarthritis We will welcome you in a great multidisciplinary team and research center Dept of Development and Regeneration - KU Leuven

👇 Job opportunity for a postdoc

Happy to introduce our latest paper with @Silviamonteag as lead author. We show that intracellular molecule ANP32A is a novel and translationally relevant repressor of Wnt signaling that impacts osteoarthritis and cardiac disease. tinyurl.com/3w64vtsd (1/9)

Join our next Arthritis Web Seminar Series Lecture on June 14, at 8am by Dr. Rik Lories, Head of the Div of Rheum UZ Leuven & of Dept of Development and Regeneration - KU Leuven, who will present on “Molecular identity of the articular chondrocyte to prevent and treat OA” → us02web.zoom.us/j/88054055642?… PC: 908525

JOB ALERT! Want work in a dynamic, interdisciplinary research environment. Apply for this #PhD project on the interplay between muscles and subtendon behavior during recovery of #achilles #tendinopathy. kuleuven.be/personeel/jobs…

Excellent contribution by @Rocio_cv highlighting the role of wnt hyperactivation in impaired mechano-adaptation in OA. Work together with Rik Lories and Silvia Monteagudo

Not often your poster is assigned 'Number 1' ...well our is during #ORS2023 😀 Well done Nuria Viudes Sarrión, @Rocio_cv in collaboration with Rik Lories, Silvia Monteagudo!

Recommendations for the delivery of therapeutic exercise for people with hip or knee #osteoarthritis 🚶🏻‍♀️🏋️‍♀️ Read the #EditorsChoice chosen by ProfDavidHunter in this month's issue of OAC 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.joca…

Excellent talk by professor Rik Lories on the exciting new work from our lab 🧬 Rik Lories EWRR2023

Happy to share our new paper on #epigenetics in #osteoarthritis just published in @ardbmj with lead authors Reem Assi Chahrazad CHERIFI Rik Lories Silvia Monteagudo from wynterborne @kuleuven in collaboration with LUMC Leiden tinyurl.com/2s47pcup (1/10)

First time presenting my research on Kindlin-2! Grateful to do it in SER OARSI 2023 in A Coruña! It was easy with the support from THD lab colleagues Nuria Viudes Sarrión @Rocio_cv Ana Escribano Astrid De Roover

Day 1 of #feeltheforce summerschool: done! ✅ Thanks to everyone from the Rocha Lab for their help setting up! And a special thanks to Jelle Hendrix for his amazing tutorial talk on FRET! 🤩

It is only the 4 of us here at #ORS2024 …but we are proudly representing all team members in KU Leuven. Thank you for all the hard work and collaborative spirit that makes the cartilage mechanobiology team unique!

Excited to post my group’s recent work showing that OA cartilage still responds anabolically to mechanical loading, despite Wnt upregulation. Uncovering the exciting world of OA cartilage mechanobiology! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New Nature Communications Publication Alert! We uncover a Wnt/IGF1 link driving joint damage in #osteoarthritis. IGF1, induced by Wnt signaling, worsens the joint disease, but IGF1 targeting could open doors to new therapie. rdcu.be/dXZ7l Silvia Monteagudo Ana Escribano 1/14
