Osteoarthritic Synovial Fluid Modulates Cell Phenotype and Metabolic Behavior In Vitro
Synovial fluid holds a population of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) that could be used for clinical treatment. Our goal was to characterize the inflammatory and metabolomic profile of the synovial fluid from osteoarthritic patients and to identify its ...

Synovial tissue macrophages: friend or foe? [PDF]
Healthy synovial tissue includes a lining layer of synovial fibroblasts and macrophages. The influx of leucocytes during active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) includes monocytes that differentiate locally into proinflammatory macrophages, and these produce ...

Immunohistochemical Analysis of IL-1 Receptor 1 In the Discs of Patients with Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction [PDF]
Objective Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) may affect a patient’s quality of life, and one of the etiologies can be anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDwR) and anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR).

In the evaluation of artificial joint disorders, synovial fluid analysis can become a very efficient diagnostic tool. This chapter explains the role of synovial fluid cytological analysis in diagnosing prosthetic joint infection (PJI). Recommended cutoff values for diagnosing PJI for leukocyte count are 1,700 cells/μL and for neutrophils 65 ...

The liver X receptor pathway is highly upregulated in rheumatoid arthritis synovial macrophages and potentiates TLR-driven cytokine release [PDF]
<p>Objectives: Macrophages are central to the inflammatory processes driving rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovitis. The molecular pathways that are induced in synovial macrophages and thereby promote RA disease pathology remain poorly understood.</
