Mechanistic studies using Western blotting demonstrated that Tet inhibited the nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway by decreasing the phosphorylation of inhibitor of NF-κB α (IκBα) and p65, which play important roles in osteoclast formation. Collectively, our data indicate that Tet suppressed Ti-induced inflammatory osteolysis and osteoclast formation in mice, suggesting that Tet has the potential to be developed to treat and prevent wear particle-induced inflammatory osteolysis.With legal animal rights on the horizon, there is a need for a more systematic theorisation of animal rights as legal rights. This article addresses conceptual, doctrinal and normative issues relating to the nature and foundations of legal animal rights by examining three key questions can, do and should animals have legal rights? It will show that animals are conceptually possible candidates for rights ascriptions. Moreover, certain 'animal welfare rights' could arguably be extracted from existing animal welfare laws, even though these are currently imperfect and weak legal rights at best. Finally, this article introduces the new conceptual vocabulary of simple and fundamental animal rights, in order to distinguish the weak legal rights that animals may be said to have as a matter of positive law from the kind of strong legal rights that animals ought to have as a matter of future law. Data for predicting severity of patients with COVID-19 infection are sparse and still under investigation. We retrospectively studied whether the admission
