Correction: Cells of the synovium in rheumatoid arthritis. Chondrocytes

چکیده
After publication of our recent article [1], we noticed an error in the third sentence of the third paragraph of the section entitled, 'Joint inflammation and cartilage remodeling in RA'. This sentence should read: ADAMTS-5 is expressed constitutively, whereas ADAMTS-4 is more prominently regulated by inflammatory cytokines.

DIFFERENTIAL PRODUCTION OF IgM A ND IgA RHEU MATOID FACTORS IN PERIPHERAL BLOOD AND SYNOVIUM OF PATIENTS WITH RHEUMATOID A RTHRITIS
Total IgM, IgA, and IgM-rheumatoid factor (RF) and IgA-RF were quantitated in the serum and synovial fluid of 35 seropositive and 8 seronegative rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, using a sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Mononuclear cells isolated from peripheral blood and synovial fluid of three seropositive patients were also stimulated in vitro with phorbol myristat...
متن کاملSerum amyloid A (apoSAA) expression is up-regulated in rheumatoid arthritis and induces transcription of matrix metalloproteinases.
The acute-phase reactant rabbit serum amyloid A 3 (SAA3) was identified as the major difference product in Ag-induced arthritis in the rabbit, a model resembling in many aspects the clinical characteristics of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in humans. In Ag-induced arthritis, up-regulated SAA3 transcription in vivo was detected in cells infiltrating into the inflamed joint, in the area where pannus ...
متن کاملICAM-1 expression on chondrocytes in rheumatoid arthritis: induction by synovial cytokines
The intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was found by immunostaining chondrocytes in cartilage from three patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Expression of ICAM-1 was restricted to chondrocytes in areas of erodedcartilage adjacent to the invading synovial tissue. Toluidine blue staining of these areas demonstrated severe depletion of the cartilage extracellular matrix. In areas of undamag...
متن کاملComparative immunolocalization studies of collagenase 1 and collagenase 3 production in the rheumatoid lesion, and by human chondrocytes and synoviocytes in vitro.
The degradation of fibrillar type II collagen is a major feature of cartilage destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Since collagenase 3 is produced by chondrocytes and preferentially degrades type II cartilage collagen, it seemed likely that this enzyme would have a prominent role in the destruction of rheumatoid joints. Using immunolocalization techniques, we have examined and compared the...
متن کاملNitric oxide production and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in inflammatory arthritides.
In this study, we have identified the source of nitric oxide (NO) produced in the human inflammatory joints by analyzing expression of inducible NO synthase. In ex vivo organ cultures, both inflammatory synovium and cartilage from patients with rheumatoid arthritis produced NO. The NO production was suppressed by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine, an inhibitor of NO synthase. The amount of NO produced b...
