The Crucial Questions on Synovial Biopsy: When, Why, Who, What, Where, and How?
In the majority of joint diseases, changes in the organization of the synovial architecture appear early. Synovial tissue analysis might provide useful information for the diagnosis, especially in atypical and rare joint disorders, and might have a value

Specific biological responses of the synovial membrane to carbon nanotubes
Biological evaluation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is typically performed in the lung or abdominal cavity; however, biological reactions to CNTs are predicted to be markedly different in other tissues.

Synovial fluid over the centuries
This review deals with the most meaningful historical topics on the study of synovial fluid, by starting from the Greco- Roman Medicine, up to Paracelsus (1493-1541), who introduced the term “synovia” to name the intra-articular humour.
