TNFalpha plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. It is very important to examine the expression of the TNF receptors, the ligand of TNFalpha. In this study, we developed a triple-color flow cytometric analysis using CD45 and CD14 monoclonal antibodies to simply detect the expression of the TNF receptors on the heterogeneous rheumatoid synovial cells. Using this system, we detected a higher population of macrophages and a greater TNF receptor expression on the synovial macrophages derived from a synovectomy in comparison to the findings obtained from knee joint replacement surgery.
TNFalpha 在类风湿关节炎的发病机制中起着至关重要的作用。检查 TNFalpha 的配体 TNF 受体的表达非常重要。在这项研究中,我们开发了一种使用 CD45 和 CD14 单克隆抗体的三色流式细胞分析,以简单地检测异质性类风湿滑膜细胞上 TNF 受体的表达。使用该系统,我们在滑膜切除术中检测到更高比例的巨噬细胞和滑膜巨噬细胞上的 TNF 受体表达,与膝关节置换术中的发现相比。
