Hypoxia-induced the upregulation of stromal cell-derived factor 1 in fibroblast-like synoviocytes contributes to migration of monocytes into synovium tissue in rheumatoid arthritis
Abstract Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an auto-immune disease characterized by chronic inflammation of multiple joints. Hypoxia is a constant feature of synovial microenvironment in RA. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs), which are potent effector cells in RA. It has been reported that la...
