Functional expression of the chemokine receptor CCR7 on fibroblast-like synoviocytes
4 Oct 2008
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We have characterized the expression and the function of the chemokine receptor CCR7 on fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) of patients with RA and OA and on dermal fibroblasts. METHODS: FLS were obtained after enzymatic digestion of synovial tissue (ST) of patients with RA and OA undergoing knee replacement surgery and taken into culture for chemokine receptor analysis by RT-PCR, flow cytometry and...
