Abstract
Fibroblasts play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Accumulation of fibroblasts in the synovial tissues characterizes the pathology of RA. Understanding how fibroblasts accumulate could lead to discovery of new therapeutic targets in RA treatment, while current antirheumatic therapies still have problems in efficacy and safety. In this regard, several studies have revealed cellular origins of fibroblasts in fibrotic...
