Figure 1From: Disruption of rhythms of molecular clocks in primary synovial fibroblasts of patients with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, role of IL-1β/TNFPresence of typical clock proteins in synovial tissue. Results of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are demonstrated. Nuclei are stained in blue with DAPI. The red staining is specific for the individual clock protein. Control staining is not given but yielded slides with negative results (only DAPI staining of nuclei is visible). Abbreviations: BMAL-1, brain and muscle arnt-like-1; DAPI, 4'-6-Diamidino-2-phenylindole; OA, osteoarthritis; Per, period homologue of Drosophila period; RA, rheumatoid arthritis.Back to article page
