## Abstract ## Objective To study the specific effects of rituximab treatment on the synovium in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) early after initiation of treatment. ## Methods Seventeen RA patients underwent an arthroscopic synovial biopsy procedure directly before and 1 month after rec
## Abstract ## Objective To determine whether treatment with the chimeric antiβtumor necrosis factor Ξ± antibody infliximab could reduce cellularity by the induction of apoptosis in synovial tissue. ## Methods Twentyβfour rheumatoid arthritis patients with active disease were randomized to receiv
The cellular infiltrates and cytokine patterns in synovial tissue (ST) from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and reactive arthritis (ReA) were compared in order to determine the mechanisms responsible for the chronic and destructive course of RA. Since the results could be influenced by diffe
