  1. Results are reported as expression of target gene relative to expression of 18S, the expression is furthermore normalised to a calibrator. The reported results are mean expression ± standard deviation. Difference between groups was tested with a Student’s t-test. *Significant difference between Synovial membrane and Joint capsule, p ≤ 0.05. aDifferential expression in synovial membrane compared to joint capsule p value ≤0.10. bTest of equal variances in the groups was not significant
