Abstract excerpt
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is marked by joint inflammation leading to pannus formation which results in cartilage destruction promoting bone erosion. The pathological hallmark of RA includes synovial hyperplasia and synovial angiogenesis. Active tissue neovascularization is observed in RA.
