Influence of TNF on Anti-Inflammatory Tyrosine-Hydroxylase-Positive Synovial Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: In recent studies we demonstrated that catecholamines produced by tyrosine-hydroxylase-positive (TH+) synovial cells are able to mediate anti-inflammatory effects in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).a TNF…Abstract Number: 1010 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Catecholaminergic-to-Cholinergic Transition of Sympathetic Nerve Fibers in Arthritis and in a Co-Culture System of Sympathetic Ganglia in Vitro
Background/Purpose: Sympathetic nerve fibers play an important role in bone and tissue homeostasis of joints. However sympathetic nerve fibers are able to switch their phenotype…Abstract Number: 1286 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-Inflammatory Effects Of Tyrosine-Hydroxylase(TH)-Positive Catecholamine Producing Cells In Chronic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: In previous studies we have shown that inflammatory processes in experimental arthritis are strongly affected by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS): In the early…Abstract Number: 78 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Norepinephrine (NE) Inhibits Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSCs) Chondrogenesis By Accelerating Hypertophy – Relevance For Cartilage Regeneration
Background/Purpose: The high potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in cartilage regeneration is undoubtful. The presence of MSCs in healthy or arthritic cartilage has also…
