  • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has a complex pathophysiology involving interactions between immune and stromal cells. There are several important stromal cells such as joint synovial fibroblasts, lymph node fibro-reticular cells, and mesenchymal stem/stromal cell in RA. In this lecture, we will summarize recent findings on the molecular signature and the roles of stromal cells contributing pathological progression or presenting promising therapeutic tools for RA and extra-articular complications.
