Fibroblast biology: Synovial fibroblasts in rheumatoid arthritis - leading role or chorus line?
Search relevance: 256.81 | Views last month: 0 -
Synovial fibroblasts occur as two phenotypes - intimal and subintimal. The specialised intimal phenotype includes expression of uridine diphosphoglucose dehydrogenase (UDPGD), vascular cell...
