Our objective was to establish the existence of intercellular communication through gap junctions in synovial lining cells and in primary and passaged cultures of human synovial cells. Communication between cells was assessed using the nystatin perforated-patch method, fluorescent dye transfer, immu

T fluid consist of lymphocytes and a variety of larger phagocytic cells with markedly different morphoIogic features. Some resemble the monocyte of the peripheral blood, others are large cells with central nuclei which may be synovial lining cells, and some are large macrophages filled with vacuoles
The term of "natural killer" (NK) cells was originally assigned on a merely functional basis to lymphoid cells capable of lysing certain tumors in the absence of prior stimulation. However, both their origin and the molecular mechanism(s) involved in their function remained a mystery for many years
