Differential Neutrophil and Eosinophil Infiltrations in the Sub-Lining Compartment of Rheumatoid Versus Osteoarthritic Synovium
Increased neutrophilic infiltrations and the presence of eosinophils in synovial sub-lining compartment discriminate RA from OA. Studies to elucidate the contribution of innate immunity cells to the pathophysiology of joint destruction in RA through interactions with fibroblasts are warranted.
