In Search of Mechanisms Underlying Fibroblast-like Synoviocyte Cell-to-Cell Cargo Transfer
Background/Purpose: The synovium is primarily built by fibroblast-like-synoviocytes (FLS). These cells form a complex tissue network via long-distance connections (nanotubes) and wide intercellular matrix spaces.…Abstract Number: 2157 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Share the Fate: Fibroblast-like Synoviocyte Cell-to-Cell Organelle Transfer Is Directed By the Inflammatory Microenvironment
Background/Purpose: Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) form a complex tissue network via long-distance intercellular connections with wide intercellular matrix spaces. The adaptive synovial tissue response to inflammation…
