Objectives: Transcription of the chemerin chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) has been observed in T cell subsets, but its role in T cells has not been well studied. As previously reported, the levels of its ligand, chemerin, are increased in the plasma and synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA); hence, we aimed to explore the expression and role of CMKLR1 in the T cells of these patients.
Methods: Peripheral blood and synovial fluid from patients with RA or osteoarthritis and healthy individuals were collected to analyse the frequency of CD27-CD28- T cells and the expression of CMKLR1 and TNF-α by flow cytometry.
