Research Article: Myeloid-derived suppressor cell-derived osteoclasts with bone resorption capacity in the joints of arthritic SKG mice
Abstract:
Background: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are heterogeneous immature myeloid cells with immunosuppressive functions. It is known that MDSCs are expanded at inflammatory sites after migrating from bone marrow (BM) or spleen (Sp). In chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), previous reports indicate that MDSCs are increased in BM and Sp, but detailed analysis of MDSCs in inflamed joints is very limited.
Introduction:
Objective: The purpose of this study is to characterize the MDSCs in the joints of mice with autoimmune arthritis.
