Damage limitation is the only game in town for the Conservatives right now
– just minutes after he landed at Heathrow – was pretty brutal, even by Westminster’s standards. We’ve heard of ministers being thrown under the bus, but being thrown under an Airbus was a whole new level of callousness.
The PM’s dramatic decision to sack Kwarteng has made her own future much less secure. After all, if thewas the longest suicide note in recent political history, it had two signatories, not one. The financial markets may settle down, but the political climate is sure to heat up as Truss is now clearly a lame duck premier. Just as City financiers know how to handle junk bonds, the Tory party has form in jettisoning its own junk blondes whose market price has plunged. Will Truss go the way of Margaret Thatcher and Boris Johnson, but much quicker? Don’t bet against it.
. During this grim week for Tory MPs in Westminster, she provided one real moment of sunshine that lifted their gloom.

RORβ modulates a gene program that is protective against articular cartilage damageOsteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent chronic joint disease which increases in frequency with age eventually impacting most people over the age of 65. OA is the leading cause of disability and impaired mobility, yet the pathogenesis of OA remains unclear. Treatments have focused mainly on pain relief and reducing joint swelling. Currently there are no effective treatments to slow the progression of the disease and to prevent irreversible loss of cartilage. Here we demonstrate that stable expression of RORβ in cultured cells results in alteration of a gene program that is supportive of chondrogenesis and is protective against development of OA. Specifically, we determined that RORβ alters the ratio of expression of the FGF receptors FGFR1 (associated with cartilage destruction) and FGFR3 (associated with cartilage protection). Additionally, ERK1/2-MAPK signaling was suppressed and AKT signaling was enhanced. These results suggest a critical role for RORβ in chondrogenesis and suggest that identification of mechanisms that control the expression of RORβ in chondrocytes could lead to the development of disease modifying therapies for the treatment of OA.
