Open Access Abstract Synovial tissue of rheumatoid arthritis RA patients is characterised by an influx and retention of CD97-positive inflammatory cells. The ligands of CD97 CD55 chondroitin sulfate B and a5p1 very late antigen VLA -5 are expressed abundantly in the synovial tissue predominantly on fibroblast-like synoviocytes endothelium and extracellular matrix. Based upon this expression pattern we hypothesise CD97 expression to result in accumulation of inflammatory cells in the synovial tissue of RA patients. To determine the therapeutic effect of blocking CD97 in an animal model of RA collagen-induced arthritis was induced in a total of 124 DBA J1 mice. Treatment was started on day 21 early disease or on day 35 longstanding disease with the blocking hamster anti-mouse CD97 monoclonal antibody .
