Effector T helper cell populations are elevated in the bone marrow of rheumatoid arthritis patients and correlate with disease severity
Abstract This study is to investigate the frequencies of T-helper (Th)22, Th17 and Th1 cells and the levels of related cytokines in subchondral bone marrow in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Bone marrow and peripheral blood samples were collected from RA, osteoarthritis (OA) patients and he...
