Nature designed a cartilage protection and lubrication system consisting
of synovial cells and synovial fluid that is sealed inside a synovial membrane.

When
cells that produced IL - 21 were put in culture with
synovial fibroblasts (which are the main contributors to joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis), they induced the production
of proinflammatory cytokines by these
synovial fibroblasts, and
cells that do not produce IL - 21, did not demonstrate this same outcome.

Steven A. Rosenberg and colleagues at the Surgery Branch
of the National Cancer Institute demonstrate that adoptive immunotherapy with CD8 + T
cells genetically engineering to recognize the NY - ESO - 1 antigen could induce significant tumor regressions in patients with metastatic
synovial sarcoma and melanoma.
Histopathology in Tg197 mice is characterized by infiltration
of inflammatory
cells,
synovial hyperplasia, articular cartilage destruction and bone erosion symptoms, closely resembling those
of human rheumatoid arthritis.
SDF - 1 is expressed in
synovial epithelial
cells and it has been reported that persistent induction
of CXCR4 by stromal derived factors, such as TGF - β led to SDF - 1 mediated accumulation
of CD4 T
cells within the rheumatoid joint [44].
When a gastric spindle
cell tumor is observed, the possibility
of synovial carcinoma, besides common mesenchymal tumor, should also be considered.

Synovial hyperplasia, Articular cartilage destruction and Bone erosions evident as Tg5453 arthritic pathology.
Cells within the site
of inflammation, the
synovial tissue, in rheumatoid arthritis patients seem to still actively synthesise the active vitamin D3 derivative and express the receptor.
Synovial sarcoma is a cancer in the joints with a five - year and ten - year survival for people with Grade 3 tumors or metastatic disease
of less than 25 % and 15 %, respectively, and Myxoid round
cell liposarcoma is a malignant tumor that most often occurs in the deep - seated soft tissues
of the extremities.
The
synovial tissue is enriched in phenotype - committed, inflammatory memory T
cells, which show a significantly reduced response to the anti-inflammatory effects
of 1,25 -(OH) 2D3.
Soft Tissue Sarcoma Opportunity: in both our monotherapy single arm Phase 1 and combination randomized Phase 2 studies, we are focusing on two types
of sarcoma where we believe there is significant unmet need:
synovial sarcoma and Myxoid round
cell liposarcoma.
The randomized, open label Phase 2 trial is ongoing and evaluating CMB305 and atezolizumab in patients with locally advanced, relapsed, or metastatic
synovial sarcoma or myxoid / round -
cell liposarcoma, two types
of sarcoma that tend to express NY - ESO - 1 broadly.
The most common tumors
of the joint include
synovial cell sarcoma, histiocytic sarcoma, myxomas and other sarcomas.
These
cells are also responsible in part for the formation
of synovial fluid, the lubricating fluid in the joint capsule.
Other types
of bone cancers include
synovial cell sarcoma, hemangiosarcoma, chondrosarcoma and fibrosarcoma.
