ADAM‐10 is overexpressed in rheumatoid arthritis synovial tissue and mediates angiogenesis
2 Nov 2012
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To examine the expression of ADAM-10 in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial tissue (ST) and the role it plays in angiogenesis. METHODS: ADAM-10 expression was determined using immunohistology, Western blotting, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. In order to examine the role of ADAM-10 in angiogenesis, we performed in vitro Matrigel tube formation and chemotaxis assays using human microvascular...
