Synovial tissue mRNA from 21 RA patients and 9 OA patients is hybridized against a common reference sample on lymphochips. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumor
We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process.
