Entry term(s) célula sinovial
células sinoviales
Scope note: Células de la superficie luminal de la MEMBRANA SINOVIAL. Los sinoviocitos tipo A son MACRÓFAGOS que tienen como misión la eliminación de residuos en la cavidad articular. Los sinoviocitos tipo B similares a fibroblastos están relacionados con la producción de constituyentes de la matriz articular (por ej., ÁCIDO HIALURÓNICO, COLÁGENO y FIBRONECTINA).
