High rate of HLA class II mRNA synthesis in rheumatoid arthritis joints and its persistence in culture: down-regulation by recombinant interleukin 2.
The expression of HLA class II mRNA was investigated in the joints of patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in order to evaluate patterns of synthesis. Northern hybridization analysis showed that HLA class II gene transcripts in RA joints were of the correct sizes, and subsequent analyses w...
