Figure Lengend Snippet: CAI‐induced maladaptive inflammation enhances macrophages training, contributing to severity of arthritis, A) CIA rat model was initiated on day 0, followed by the induction of β‐glucan‐mediated trained immunity on day 14, B) Arthritis index and paw thickness were scored. * Compared with CIA ( ** p <0.01, ANOVA followed by multiple comparisons) ( n =5), C) The levels of IL‐β in the serum of rats ( n = 5), D) Representative photographs of morphology in different groups ( n =3), E) H&E staining of representative joints in different groups, scale bars, 200 µm, F) The level of IL‐β and IL‐10 in the joint effusion of rats ( n = 5), G) Immunofluorescence assays of IL‐β + VCAM + in the joints of rats, scale bars, 50 µm, H) The pathological progression of rheumatoid arthritis aggravated by trained immunity, In B, C, F, data are presented as mean ± SD, B, ** p <0.01 by a Two‐Way ANOVA, C, F, * p <0.05 by a One‐way ANOVA.

Article Snippet: For Figure , rats were trained with β‐glucan (1.0 mg rat −1 , Invivogen, #tlrl‐wgp) in 100.0 μL PBS by intravenous route on day 0, and then injected subcutaneously with 200.0 μL emulsion (equivalent amounts of incomplete Freund's adjuvant (Chondrex, Redmond, USA) and bovine type II collagen (Chondrex, Redmond, USA)) (0.2 μg rat −1 ) unilaterally at the base of the tail on day 7.
