The antigen-induced arthritis model of rheumatoid arthritis in rabbits demonstrates persistent active inflammation for several months after the intra-articular injection of antigen, including hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the synovial lining cells, pannus formation with articular cartilage erosion, and chronic infiltration of synovium by lymphocytes and plasma cells [ 13 ] . In addition, Dijkstra and colleagues [ 15 ] found macrophages in the superficial layer of the synovium, where they might secrete enzymes and oxygen radicals into the joint space, which can lead to cartilage erosion [ 9 ] .
