Characterisation of T cell surface phenotype and effector function in a surrogate model of rheumatoid arthritis
2009-01-01
Abstract excerpt
TNFα plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), however the mechanisms underlying its dysregulation are not completely understood. TNFα production by macrophages is dependent on their contact with synovial T cells. In an in vitro model of RA, peripheral blood lymphocytes stimulated with a cocktail of cytokines mimic this RA T cell effector function. This thesis defines and characterises...
