## Abstract ## Objective Treatment of patients with infliximab, a chimeric monoclonal IgG1 antibody against tumor necrosis factor, may result in the formation of infliximabβspecific IgG antibodies. This study evaluated the clinical significance of these antibodies in patients with rheumatoid arthr
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
