在回顾类风湿关节炎(RA)的炎症过程时,纽约大学医学中心的G Weissman教授阐述了在许多RA患者滑液中发现的一些成份。类风湿患者滑液的细胞中,中性白细胞(或多形核白细胞;PMN)占90％以上。这些吞噬细胞被吸引到炎症部位,在那里,它们吞噬免疫复合物(抗原/抗体复合物)和释放溶菌酶、释放过氧化物及其它炎症介质,引起 In a review of the inflammatory processes in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Professor G Weissman of the New York University Medical Center described some of the components found in the synovial fluid of many RA patients. Rheumatoid synovial cells, neutrophils (or polymorphonuclear leukocytes; PMN) accounted for more than 90%. These phagocytes are attracted to the site of inflammation, where they phagocytose immune complexes (antigen / antibody complexes) and release lysozyme, release peroxides and other inflammatory mediators, causing
