24 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To compare the gene expression patterns of synovial cells from inflamed or normal/reactive areas of synovial membrane obtained from the same patient with osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: At the time of total knee replacement, synovial tissues were obtained from 12 patients with knee OA.
