Doctors use synovial fluid analysis, or synovial joint analysis, to help diagnose the cause of joint pain and to rule out infection. Common causes of joint pain include rheumatoid arthritis (RA ...

They assessed a panel of T cell, macrophage and stromal cell related cytokines and chemokines in synovial fluid samples from inflamed joints of these patients with very early arthritis.

Some joints are synovial joints, named after the fluid between your bones. Synovial fluid protects your bones by serving as a cushion. It allows bones that meet to slide past one another during ...

For example, it was possible to show that different clusters in fact represent the same inflammatory synovial macrophage subset, and are transcriptionally similar to an IL1B+ monocyte subset ...

We also know that distinct synovial tissue macrophage subsets regulate inflammation and remission in rheumatoid arthritis. The potential of high-throughput analyses has been shown, and these ...
