Mangoman, a sample size of one certainly comes with its own caveats but our friend Happell is at least one personal example of the potential in the RA space.

The other link, by association, is of course Alpha Virus related arthritis, like what we have wonderfully observed to date in our RRV/CHIK-V models:


"The hallmark of alphavirus disease is crippling pain and inflammation of the joints, a similar immunopathology to rheumatoid arthritis". ¹

...and further:..

"In the past few years, we have identified many similarities between the pathobiology of infectious arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis."



This indication will be added, at least from an observation point or off label until an association is made/studied at larger scales.




DYOR is apt
