Characterization of MGC subtypes in OA and in RA. a. A greater proportion of inflamed OA (OAI) and RA cases displayed MGCs than did non-inflamed OA (OANI) or non-arthritic (post mortem, PM) controls. b. Increased MGC size in RA compared with OA cases. c and d. Relative abundance of morphological MGC subtypes observed in OA (c) and RA (d) synovia. Bars in b-d represent medians, with IQRs indicating between MGC heterogeneity
