Fibroblastic Rheumatism

JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 2006
We report the first known South African case of fibroblastic rheumatism, a rare dermatoarthropathy. Our patient presented with the typical clinical features of a sudden-onset, erosive polyarthritis with cutaneous nodules and sclerodactyly. Significant functional loss occurred within a period of 3 to 4 months. X-rays of the hands showed a single erosion,

Fibroblast Pneumonocyte Factor

American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 1989
Fibroblast-pneumonocyte factor (FPF) is an organ-specific differentiation factor produced, under glucocorticoid regulation, by the fetal lung fibroblast, which in turn enhances the differentiation of the alveolar type II cell with respect to surfactant production. In this article we review the appearance of the type II cell phenotype during fetal life

Epitranscriptomics in fibroblasts and fibrosis

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 2022
Fibroblasts play an important role in the pathogenic mechanisms of several socially significant diseases, including pulmonary and cardiovascular fibrosis, liver cirrhosis, systemic sclerosis, progressive kidney disease. The alterations of the epitranscriptome, including more than 170 distinct posttranscriptional RNA modifications or editing events ...

Synovial Fibroblasts

Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 1988
Chronic synovitis refers to fibrin deposits on the surface of proliferating superficial synovial lining cells leading to villous hyperthrophy, and associated with foci of cell necrosis and infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells. The superficial synovial lining cells include fibroblast-like type B cells and macrophage-like type A cells.

Fibroblastic rheumatism

Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 2009
Fibroblastic rheumatism (FR) was first described in 1980 by Chaouat et al., and there have been few cases reported to date. The cause remains unknown. We report the first Latin-American patient with FR, to our knowledge, who is also the patient with the most striking dermatological features described in the literature.

Fibroblastic rheumatism

Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 1994
The first British case of fibroblastic rheumatism is reported. Treatment with apha-interferon in combination with a reducing course of steroids resulted in some regression of the cutaneous nodules, and initial improvement in the skin fibrosis and digital contractures.

Fibroblast Growth Factors

British Medical Bulletin, 1989
The existence of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) was proposed over 40 years ago to account for the ability of tissue extracts to stimulate fibroblast proliferation. In the 1970s it became clear that preparations containing FGF activity were in fact pleiotropic, affecting the growth and function of a wide variety of mesenchymal, endocrine and neural ...

Re-evaluation of fibroblasts and fibroblast-like cells

Anatomy and Embryology, 1990
Scanning electron microscopic observations of connective tissue cells show a new aspect of the nature of fibroblasts, and the subsequent broad survey of references makes clear that fibroblasts of many tissues have various features which are regarded as atypical of fibroblasts, and at the same time that various connective tissue cells in different ...

Fibroblasts in the Tumor Microenvironment

2020
The implications of a tumor microenvironment in cancer initiation and progression have drawn interest in recent years. Within the tumor stroma, fibroblasts represent a predominant cell type and are responsible for the majority of extracellular components within the tumor microenvironment, such as matrix and soluble factors.
