Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and progressive autoimmune disease in which activated RA fibroblast-1ike synoviocytes (RA-FLSs) are one of the main factors responsible for inducing morbidity. 19:365-372. 3 Kotake S, Sato K, Kim KJ, Takahashi N, Udagawa N, Nakamura I et al. In earlier studies, researchers found that CD34(+) cells in RA patients are regulated by TNFß and can differentiate into fibroblast-like cells, suggesting that bone marrow CD34+ could be the origin of RASFs [24]. Croft et al. Fibroblast biology Synovial fibroblasts in rheumatoid arthritis: leading role or chorus line? These cells can differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. cannabinoid receptor 2, fibroblast-like synoviocytes, interleukin 6, matrix metalloproteinases, rheumatoid arthritis Introduction RA is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease of unknown aetiology that is characterized by chronic inflammatory infiltration of the synovium, leading … CASC2, lncRNA cancer susceptibility candidate 2; IL-17, interleukin-17; RA, rheumatoid arthritis; HFLSs, human fibroblast-like synoviocytes. “Rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts differentiate into distinct subsets in the presence of cytokines and cartilage” Arthritis Research and Therapy (2016) DOI: 10.1186/s13075-016-1156-1 The study was supported by a research grant from Arthritis Research UK, the charity dedicated to uncovering new ideas to help people push back the ways arthritis limits their lives. Little is known about fibroblast heterogeneity or if aberrations in fibroblast subsets relate to pathology. This study was undertaken to evaluate the fibroblast‐specific marker Hsp47 as a quantitative marker for SFs and to analyze its clinicopathologic correlates and evolution after anti–tumor necrosis factor α (anti‐TNFα) therapy. Synovial fibroblasts (SFs) play an important role in the inflammatory process of the synovium. To investigate the role of autophagy in the regulation of cell death in rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RASFs). Origin of Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fibroblasts The origin of RASFs remains elusive. 1. JAK inhibitors have shown to be an efficient therapeutic option in RA treatment, but less is known about the effect of JAK inhibitors on activated RASF. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the synovium that can lead to severe joint damage and afflicts 0.5–1.0% of population in the industrialized world [].RA is characterized by cellular infiltration, pannus formation, cartilage degradation, bone erosion, and extensive angiogenesis restricted to the synovium []. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) represent a specialised cell type located inside joints in the synovium.These cells play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis.. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes in normal tissues. Biochem Biophy Res Commun. used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify a subset of inflammatory macrophages within human RA joints that promoted synovial fibroblast invasiveness. a, Untreated FLS. 37 Citations. Background: Synovial fibroblasts (SF) play a major role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and develop an aggressive phenotype destroying cartilage and bone, thus termed RASF. These rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RASFs) constitute a quite unique cell type that distinguishes RA from other inflammatory conditions of the joints. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of PI3Kinase/Akt and the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in the resistance of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) fibroblast like synovial cells (FLS) to Fas-mediated apoptosis. Web of Science; Google Scholar ; Related articles in PubMed. In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), synovial fibroblasts maintain chronic inflammation which leads to joint destruction. Invasiveness of fibroblast-like synoviocytes is an individual patient characteristic associated with the rate of joint destruction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a form of chronic inflammation, characterized by the onset of synovitis and progressive bone destruction in joints.

The purpose of this study was to analyze cell senescence in human synovial tissues (ST), and its impact on the pro-inflammatory function of synovial fibroblasts (SF). These features cause the inflamed synovium to adopt a tumour-like phenotype which facilitates the invasion of adjacent cartilage. 6087 Accesses. Macrophages play a critical role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic joint inflammation. A number of studies have demonstrated that RASFs show alterations in morphology and behaviour, including molecular changes in signalling cascades, apoptosis responses and in the expression of adhesion molecules as well as … Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that causes destruction of cartilage and bone and systemic inflammation via the interactions of different types of inflammatory cells [1, 2].Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) play an important role in the pathogenesis of RA and are major components of the hyperplastic pannus that invades cartilage and bone. Previous reports have shown that RA-FLSs have proliferative features similar to cancer cells, in addition to causing cartilage erosion that eventually causes joint damage. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are common rheumatic disorders that primarily involve joints.
