Abstract: | Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by synovial inflammation with local accumulation of mononuclear cells such as macrophages
and lymphocytes. We previously demonstrated that intra-articular glucocorticoids decrease the synovial tissue (ST) T-cell
population and therefore aimed to investigate whether this is mediated through modulation of apoptosis. |
